Hate crime legislation

[Graves]

This is so great. NOT. where the hell was this bill when a nice white couple was driving in Tennessee and 4 black guys car jacked them robbed, raped and tortured and killed them, then the judge called it a carjacking gone wrong, not a hate crime WTF I would say more but I will leave it at this. And If I remember correctly they only got 25 years or some BS like that. This was only a few months ago too

That was back in 07. One of these monsters got life wo parol (deserves worse IMO) and last I heard the others are awaiting their trial.

This kind of thing irritates the hell out of me...

Why do we have to have special protections for anybody? If one guy attacks another guy and kills him, its murder.. It doesn't matter why the murder or attack occured so much as the fact that it happened. We have too many protected classes of people in this country. Children, the elderly, disabled folks, that makes sense. Gays, minorities, religious affiliations and the like do not need any more protection in the law than anybody else does. This legislation is feel good nonsense...

My guess is that this is as close as they can get to policing your thoughts... for now that is. If they could, you would be procecuted for, or at least forced into training to counter your racist, homophobic, or any other thoughts counter to the collective good. On second thought, nah. They wouldn't do that.
