I don't support hate crimes since it is demeaning to crime victims (why is one murder victim better then another just because they were killed because they were black or gay instead of just because they were blonde or mouthed off to the wrong person?). Not to mention that all crimes are crimes of hate.

That said, Matthew Shepard was killed because he was Gay. The two guys beat him to death because supposedly he came on to them.

She was wrong.

“Not to mention that all crimes are crimes of hate.”

Ask a lib if it’s possible to commit a violent crime out of love. I could imagine it, I guess. You know, “If I can’t have you no one can!” But they won’t be able to. They’ll proceed to tell you love is not the opposite of hate. Indifference is. So I guess when white heterosexual males rob eachother, they do so out of indifference.

I had a high school teacher once who told me indifference means you’d spit on someone soon as look at them. I beg to differ. There’s no reason indifference can’t be experienced within the bounds of acceptable social behavior (which people observe not out of love but out of habit). I figure indifference is pretty much what I feel for all of humanity, accepting people I know and either love or hate (and attractive women).

Were there eye/ear witnesses? Did the offenders admit as much?

spikeytx86: “Matthew Shepard was killed because he was Gay”

There is absolutely no proof of that. It is a common technique used by militant homosexual activists to try and create these fictitious martyrs. Even liberal ABC news in their report concluded that the main motive of the killers was robbery. I believe they were sentenced to life in prison. How in the heck can you complain about that?
