Well-intentioned he may be. But the road to a hot, dark, intolerable place is paved with such good intentions.
Count me as an opponent of his potential GOP nomination.
Frankly, this is misguided. Rudy should know better.
I'm going to say something controversial, and I realize this post may be pulled.
Legislation and other public policies _against_ "hate crimes" are handing Europe to the Islamics, because such laws and policies make it impossible for white Europeans to fight back in any meaningful or useful manner.
The only way Christian/Europe is going to muster the will and intestinal fortitude to take appropriate action to drive out the Islamic hordes is with "hate".
"Hate" the way we "hated" the Japanese in World War II, and obliterated their cities, their women, their children (yes, we did that).
"Hate" the way we "hated" the Nazis in World War II, and pummelled their country into ruins.
You have to hate your enemies to build up the anger to do what's necessary to vanquish them. It's really that simple.
But because the white Europeans are so "civilized", they will literally put the handcuffs on their citizens and governments so that the Islamics _can't_ be "hated" and thus removed from those societies.
Conversely, Islamics have no problems whatsoever "hating" infidels: indeed, the exhotations to do so are written into the Quran, for them to follow.
Want to see "hate"? Wear a cross in the open in Saudi Arabia. They know what to do about that.
Until we are willing to take action as drastic against Islamics in Western society, they will continue to gain the upper hand, in the battle of civilizations.

In a Giuliani presidency, those who agree with the president and his social liberal leanings will have nothing to fear.
Those who don't will find out quickly how Rudy won his reputation for ruthlessness as a prosecutor.
Gun owners and social conservatives will have much to be concerned about.
Bump.
In the wake of the Coulter/Edwards kerfuffle, it's time to mosey down Rudy's hate crime alley once again.
