I have been reading the recently released Clinton papers on Kagan’s involvement in crafting the 1997 hate crimes “industry” (there is no other word for it). With Eric Holder, Ted Kennedy and others, the administration, including Kagan, navigated the choppy issues of counting women out (because there are too many crimes motivated by gender) and designed a giant bureaucracy to “train” and “educate” prosecutors to create a set of statistics that satisfied the activists.

It’s a horrifying example of the politicization of our entire justice system — not just the part that is directly involved in “hate crime” law but also the rest of criminal justice — because these people believe the only real injustice is something they have labeled injustice.
