After all, he's staunchly for the death penalty. Instead, he's actually very awkwardly trying to state a position that is against enhancements when they involve a person's hate as a motivator for a crime, here bigotry and homophobia primarily. He's made his choice. He'd rather be allowed to keep his bigotry and homophobia than see criminals do as much time as possible. There's no other way to read this. Let him drink alone.

You make my point about the hypocrisy and double standars of liberals who lie about being fans of free speech. It's why your side loses and will continue to be losers.

Let him drink alone>> Thanks for admitting that you want to make bigotry and homophobia a crime in America. So much for freedom of expression and free speech. Screw the first ammendment. What is so lame about your position is how you, like Shooba and other half cocked libs on here have a blatant dounble standard about who you want to impose your thought police penalties on. You guys can call me, a white conservative every name in the book and the we always lose liberals, stay silent. But say something a liberal deems as not PC, like saying being gay is a sin, then look out baby!! All hell breaks loose. This dounble standard with the left is old and stale these days. It is costing you guys elections, power, respect, and any credibility. But keep attacking me. We see who is being consistant and honest vs. who is acting in a facist style. This kind of intolerance, which is so typical of the lefts political cleansing is why we can't ignore unfounded accusations of racism, homophobia and bigotry from the likes of STPH, Shooba, K2man and a few others on here.

I have watched you for a long time launch personal attacks when peope dared not agree with your constantly flawed positions. But grow up already. Once you learn how to back something up and defend your position instead of acting like a typical liberal who has nothing but foul language we will stop laughing at you. Trust me, there are many lurkers on here who support me more than you will ever know.

It's stupid jon.

Originally Posted By mele Why do you, as a Christian, feel that your feelings of hatred aren't hatred at all but simply "un PC" feeeeelings?
Originally Posted By Beaumandy Because we don't put people in jail for hate now do we mele? I guess liberals would like to put right wingers who don't support gay marrige into jail, but that is not how America works. When a person commits a crime and he gets extra time in jail for his " hate " you are doing exactly what I just said was not how America is set up... unless liberals get power. It's PC crap gone wild so libs can stick it to people that don't fall into line with what THEY deem as acceptable thoughts. Screw that.

Originally Posted By Beaumandy To prove me point.

With hate crime laws, liberals get a chance to actually put the " offending " person in jail for his thoughs and attitudes. Of course 90% of the time.. well 80% of the time according to the cartton guy on here, these thought crimes will go against people liberals don't like.
Originally Posted By Shooba >>I guess liberals would like to put right wingers who don't support gay marrige into jail, but that is not how America works.<< I'd love to see evidence of anyone on these boards, or anywhere for that matter, suggest that someone go to jail for this. You make up opposing opinions, and argue against them, and in the process come across as having less brain activity than Terri Schiavo.

A person can walk around with a sign that says GOD HATES FAGS and that's OK. It's a repugnant message, but it's that person's right to express that opinion. When s/he commits an act of violence that is directed at the victim on the basis of bias, the line has been crossed. In that sense, a hate crime addition to the charges sends a message that crime on the basis of basis will carry a stiffer punishment. So it is, as it were, a deterrent. Whether it is successful as a deterrent, I can't speak to that.

Originally Posted By Shooba No, what BlueDevil really thinks is that homophobes should be rounded up and thrown in jail, just for their thoughts. He didn't actually say that, but it's what he thinks. He just won't admit it. *rolls eyes*
