Oh please! There are many good reasons to oppose "hate crime" statutes, but the notion that there's a vast conspiracy by Muslims to have them enacted, and even more so that this conspiracy's objective is to terminate America's freedom of speech, not to mention the idea that "hate crime" statutes actually would terminate America's freedom of speech, is beyond ridiculous. It is totally absurd.
And the notion that Muslims and homosexuals are in collusion is even more ridiculous than that.
You're kidding, right?
There are already hate crimes on the books to protect gays, lesbians, trans-gender-whatevers, and blacks - to name a few. Muslims are next!
