Whether they're bigoted or idiotic shouldn't affect how the law affects them, though. If the person committing this crime was a nice, inoffensive guy, would the law remain justified?

The law should treat both of them exactly the same. But if he was nice and unoffensive, I would go out of my way to help him.
