Religious folks aren't very intelligent, are they?
The religious folks in the United States are all abuzz. Hate crime legislation was passed and signed by Mr. Obama. And the religious nut bags are all crying foul. They think that this new legislation won't allow them their First Amendment right to bigotry. This is only because, I think, they are stupid individuals. Of course this group gives complete credence to fairy tales, so what should we reasonably expect? They staunchly believe that there is this major war against them and so they attack before being attacked. They hate before any hatred heads their way. Preemptive strikes against the heathens.
The goons of religion don't get it. Speech is different from action. You don't like queers? Fine. You want to express your hatred of homosexuality? Great, have at it. You want to kill or maim or attack them? That's a whole different ball of wax. It is my personal conviction that religion should be outlawed from the public discourse and my First Amendment right allows me to express this. It does not, however, allow me to punch religious people in their faces. Sad, but true.
So hate away, religious person. Be free to be bigoted. Just make sure it stays oral. And if you don't, don't be surprised should the gays better the instruction you give and sock it right back at you.

I'm old.
I remember when the hate crime bill was first introduced in Congress.
I sat in my Church in Salem, Massachusetts while our parish priest read letters from both Senator Edward Brooke (R) and Senator Ted Kennedy (D)urging all Catholics to support this legislation.
It was 1969.
The Church has no objection to hate crimes legislation, so long as it doesn't include sexual orientation or gender identity.
Hypocrites.
Ask them if they are willing to repeal the protection the law affords for hate crimes based on religious bias and they'll sing a different tune.
Where I come from, there is a long history of bias crimes against Irish Catholics.
Davmab11 YOU lost. Your gawd is the king of the INADEQUATE, WEAKLING slaves. It doesn't exist. Weaklings who can't find a purpose gravitate to this nonsense because they are inferior and generally useless. More people are realizing they don't need to be weak and are turning away from your pretend gawd than ever before. And there is NOTHING that a loser like you can BEGIN to do about it. Your pretend gawd provides NO ONE with "light". If someone looks in one of your ears, they see LIGHT coming in through the other one. Remember your gawd raped his own 13-year-old-mother to give birth to himself. You are the kind of stupid fool who can get good feeling from this.
