Guess who I won’t be voting for.......
Guessing you won’t be invited to the Perry Christmas Party.
This is crap! A hate crime should not be defined as offenses against just minorities but against any citizen.

I can guess you don’t like Perry, but why post a 10 year old story?
Well politics is ugly sometimes. I’m glad he’s in. I’d be happy with Palin, Perry or Bachmann. Reading comments at huffpo in Perry. They’re scared. Call me nuts but I like the idea of another Texan being presdient (other than Ron Paul).
Ah yes, yet another constitutionally illiterate RINO. Sarah will beat him like a rented mule. Is there a fringe minority group he hasn’t yet pandered??? Gag me with a spoon.
As an SP supporter this is disappointing.
Murder is murder. Murdering a homo because he is a homo is no worse than murdering an old woman because she was a safe target. I don’t know where SP stands on the hate crimes but I hope she can see through this, OTOH, economy, energy are #1 issues
It is so astounding how many on FR are determined to bring down Gov. Perry, a fabulous candidate who can defeat Obama next year. In fact, they are doing nothing but HELPING Obama get re-elected.
I see nothing wrong with that bill.......no one should be discriminated against. If you are a Christian, would you prefer to be discriminated against because of your faith? It isn’t a one-sided street, folks.
What many of us love about Gov. Perry so much is that he can bring so many people from all parts of the GOP together and also win over the independents, in addition to sharing conservative values!
RICK PERRY, 2012!
More 10+ year old spam. From the LATimes , no less.
Why don’t you post more news worthy, like this?

You have talent for digging up info about Perry that is a decade old. Can you also post Obama’s transcripts or articles or anything about his academic prowess? I think we have his voting record in the Senate—”present”.
No agenda here.
Hate Crimes.. yet another BS law brought about by special interest groups i.e. queers etc.
Well that Mexican,Muslim loving Fool is done!!
Does the bill also have provisions for distringuishing hate crimes from love crimes or friendship crimes, and how to determine the appropriate penalties for each crime type ?
Ever since three white men beat the 49-year-old Byrd, chained him by the ankles to the bumper of a Ford pickup, then pulled him down Huff Creek Road in the early hours of June 7, 1998, Jasper has been almost synonymous with the horrors of racism.Byrd's remains were found scattered in 75 places along the twisting path that cuts through a pine forest. His head and right arm were discovered about a mile from his mangled torso.
Just lost my vote
Heck, W had to take on the Byrd case in the presidential debates with Algore.
GWB was pressed to support ‘hate crimes’ legislation but noted existing criminal law was good enough.
Two of the guys that killed Byrd got the death penalty and the other got life. There was no need for a ‘hate crimes law.’
Perry is more liberal than GW Bush on this one....
Nasty, nasty to not only approve of the concept of “hate crimes” but to increase the penalties.
Perry sucks.
Wow! Found some stuff on him on a website called Democracy Now! It’s right under the picture of Bush making a monkey face.
