If I had to pick between big government and racist hate groups, I’d have to take the big government. It’s a good thing we don’t have to make that choice.

You are getting Big Government because of the racist hate groups, since that is the basis for 'hate crime' legislation.

Soon it will be considered 'hate speech' to denounce homosexuality from the pulpits.

It is indeed amazing how 'PC' many of the posters on FR have become.

I can’t believe that someone would seek to censor denounciation of hate groups as being “PC.” If the hate groups are giving us big government, that’s all the more reason to condemn them, but I suspect you are implying something else.

Don’t try to hang “hate crime” legislation on me. I’m opposed to as much as anyone, but I won’t let this kind of stupid argument keep me from denouncing hate mongers and their supporters. There were hate groups out there long before there was anything called a hate crime, and Republicans even more than Democrats have always been opposed to them.

I for one am not willing to let them or their apologists ruin my party. Those of you who want to embrace them need to get you head out of the sand.
