Often enough, when people of different ethnic groups who have little or nothing are thrown together by chance, ethnic and racial hostilities have the potential to motivate hate crimes, because people who already don't have much tend to feel threatened by the presence of another group or groups. Although socioeconomic in origin, people put in competition with each other are often under much greater stress and pressure, and racial/ethnic differences also flare, making the advent of hate crimes much more likely.

Can a misdemeanor including buying alcohol for minors stop you from becoming a citizen?
No, misdemeanors do not disqualify on for US Citizenship or I wouldn't be one. ...Now a felony would prevent you from being granted citizenshp - the only exception are 'felony conviction from countries that the US finds the judical system questionable, ie: if there is no separation of executive and judical branches, like Iran. In frienly allieed countries the 'nature of the crime' would come into question, ie: no violence, drugs, arms, trafficking etc. If you were in default of a law suit, which in some contries can become flonies, then that is what they consider 'understandable circumstance'. Also, if its a law that wouldn't hold up in a US court then the odds are you will not be rejected because of it. So, to answer the question... if you misdeameanor was for possession of amphetamines with intent to sell -or- possession of a firearm that was not licensed to you, well those kind of misdemeanors cold keep you on the other side of the gates. ...at which point you simply fly to Tijuana Mexico on a weekend and walk back on a Fri or Sat night with all of the tourists and partiers who make the 15 minute trip down from San Diego... and they NEVER chek for IDs on that walk across. ...driving, you'd need to be with a US licensed driver with you as the passenger and NO luggage.
Assisted suicide is murder, because you helped someone kill them self, and even helping to kill someone that isn't you is called murder. The only murder there is is stealing, when u kill someone, ur stealing another person's right of a friend, and ur stealing their fammily's right for a cousin, brother, father, mother. etc.

1) The accused must have intended to commit the crime
2) The accused must have taken substantial steps to complete the act

Killing a life is always a sin according to Bible. Sacrificing the life of animals were needed before New testament. Even it became unneccessory when God gave his own son as a sacrifice. Thus God has given oppurtunity to every life to repent and come to the narrow way. It is a sin to take from a person what the God has given to him.
In self defense
God sent the Children of Israel into the promised land and they were commanded to kill all that breathed. This was not sin but God's justice. They were given the space of 400 years to repent of their sins.
Why did Babylon insist on harsh punishments for crime?
It is a common misconception that Babylonian laws were overtly harsh. For example, in most societies those days many crimes that in Babylon would mean that the criminal had to compensate for the damage caused/property stolen (usually tenfold) - would mean that the perpetrator would instantly be put to death. Though in case if the criminal had nothing to pay with, he'd be executed. One could say that they were not especially harsh for the time, instead were more fair and just than most.
Babylonian laws were very advanced for their time, Code of Hammurabi has one of the earliest examples of the idea of presumption of innocence, and also gives right for both the accuser and accused to be able to present evidence.
Code of Hammurabi also recognizes importance of intent. For example, person accidentally causing death of another person would only be fined, and not to be put to death himself.
