abstract="The verdict in the trial of Jonathan Schmitz, convicted of killing Scott Amedure after appearing together on the Jenny Jones TV talk show, underlined the message of no tolerance for perpetrators of hate crimes. The group Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG) reiterated that hate crimes affect the entire community, and appealed to Congress to pass the Hate Crimes Prevention Act (HCPA). The HCPA would expand the coverage of current Federal legislation to include gender, disability, and sexual orientation.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
