      Federal. The Atlanta Spa shooter was charged under Georgia’s hate crime law. I can assure you, the SPLC knows what they’re talking about. Studying and reporting on hate crimes/groups is their whole “thing.”

      He wasn’t sentenced under hate crime laws though. He plead guilty to simple murder charges.

      N.B. it might still happen in Fulton.

      Yeah, I thought the same thing but my brain skipped the “federal” part on first read of the title.
