Reply #94: i think the notion of thinking that hate crimes are thought crimes

[xchrom]

is nutty.

american history, european history, world history is replete with examples of what happens to selected minorities who are targeted for for violence.

the fact that you put the lessons learned over time -- you put your ''thoughts'' above the persection of people is sick.

it's sick and it''s bigoted.

people who commit the crimes in this case are prosecuted in the end for their actions -- hate crimes is a designatiion -- like some murderers are pick out for special circumstances -- i.e. serial killers, killing more than one person at a pop, cop killers.

this isn't the jungle -- this isn't the survival of the fittest -- which is what you have done, what the supremes have done with your reasoning about how people should live.

you have diminished your humanity.
