Lawrence poses the question: Should bias crimes be punished more harshly than similar crimes not motivated by bias? He answers strongly in the affirmative, as do many scholars and citizens, but he is the first to provide a solid theoretical grounding for this intuitive agreement, and a detailed model for a bias crimes statute based on the theory.
