It's already the law, it would just be better if the higher penalties applied to all civil rights violations and not just those that involve physical assault. The problem is that the DOJ is heavily politicized and won't proceed with charges.

Discussing the definition of specific rights is not the same thing as actively depriving people of those rights. You are equating speech and debate with action.
