    wow, what a long winged expression of ignorance.

    this guy has limited intelligence and very little integrity in him. his case appeals to the ignorant. Essentially, they are outlawing hate. They're legalizing, even mandating racism . and the same crew is outlawing hate. I hate these people, and am proud to hate them, it is my religion to hate them. It's simply illegal to be honest. That's their aim, and their effect. These people are fostering one sided bigotry. It's the state verse truth. that's the bottom line and the two sides. Soon, you will not be able to have an opinion against the government. They lie lie lie and lie. Everything they say is a lie. you sit here listening to these guys, is anyone prosecuting the 1000's of black on white crimes that happen every hour?
