"Now this kid seems to have been lying about his having been attacked because he was gay, but it doesn’t look like he was lying about having been attacked.

So what are the authorities going to do about it? Now that it’s not a hate crime, are they just going to let it slide?

Seems to me that any attack deserves some investigative resources."

Guess you didn't read the article:

"...adding that police are still looking into Marquardt’s claim that he was assaulted."

...student’s claim that he was the victim of a hate crime was a sham.

Well, that's a first. (/sarcasm)

Is it ever appropriate to use the term "...

No. I don't need to ask. It's not. Never mind!

At a large company I worked for, they mandated that we all take “sensitivity” training. I told them there was no way in hell they were going to get me to listen to that pap. I didn’t and they let it blow over. If more people would stand up to PC claptrap and the hate speech nazis this country will be far better for it.

LOL. I remember the movement some time ago to get away from saying “black”. I refuse to ever utter the term african american.

I say "gentleman of color," myself, with an exaggerated enunciation that (I hope) abundantly declares my contempt for political correctness.

No, but I have been known to say the following:

"I am...what's the vernacular again? Oh, yes...'down with that.'"

“The whole notion of “hate crimes” is stalinist BS.”

Just another stepping stones toward the establishment of the Thought Police.

“Bias-motivated crimes do occur in our area. Even if it didn’t happen in this case, they’ve happened in the past,” Sink said...

Thereby meeting the Dan Rather standard of fact finding..."Fake but accurate."

This is so common that any figures about "gay bashing" or similar so-called hate crimes are not to be believed. I've read dozens of articles about faux "hate crimes" committed by the supposed victims.
