The very idea of a "hate crime" is hateful. According to the "hate crimes" philosophy, if someone attacks my aged father, (who is hard of hearing, sight and feeble - and white) this is not as heinous a crime as someone attacking a homosexual or someone of a different race. That is a psychotic and descpicable position.

You said it. It's outrageous; it is saying some are more special than others. Just punish the actual crime, not the intent.

Homosexuality is a hate crime against Creation.
