Resumen:
In this paper, I suggest an answer to some well-known critics about how we should blame emotional motives. Particularly, whether if there is any justification to punish more severely crimes that are committed by certain motives or, by contrast, if that punishment is only a way to blame our guilty mind. Although my analysis is tightened to Heidi Hurd and Michael Moore´s arguments, I expect that the discussion would shed light on the main difficulties in evaluating emotional motives. Finally, I claim that the aggravating way of blaming emotional motives is justified when we understand the role played by motives in the determination of human action.
