59. I've reflected more than long enough
And I've known victims of those crimes. People who were doing nothing more than walking down the damn street.

No civil rights violation charges filed, though. Intimidation is perfectly irrelevant when the right of the straight white male bully to act on thoughts of intimidation is of the highest concern for "protection."

The solution seems to be the institution of groups of gays who prey on individual straight white men and behave in the same manner. After all, it's just an assault - they were straight and a member of a group with a history of intimidation laws and behaviors and instigating fear in others. Maybe we can get it reduced to. . .say. . .self-defense. After all, their presence on the street is threatening. . .right? I mean, they were walking down the street and are a member of that minority group - isn't that enough reason?

I know very few women who will go out alone after dark. Care to explain how the judicial system allowed that to happen?
