I guess I could say "classic conservative comeback," but that doesn't add anymore to the conversation than "clasic liberal double standard." It's so much easier to dismiss the opinions of others when you can just shrug them off as "classic liberal" or "classic conservative" jerks of the knee.

The law has long considered it permissible and appropriate to aggravate the penalty or seriousness of a crime based the offender's intent/motivation: assault with intent to kill, assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill, crimes committed for pecuniary gain, crimes committed for the purpose of impeding law enforcement . . . .
