A disagreement is not a hate crime.
Theft is theft.
If they stole it because they want to hang it in their den, it's just theft. But if they stole it because they want to suppress it because of their conflicting beliefs, it's a hate crime. It's called intent, and it's relevant in a court of law.
Good point, Martin.It sure wasn't a big invisible hand from the sky that took it though.
Perhaps then a crime of passion ?
