If a woman comes to hate her abusive husband over the years and finally bashes his head in with a handy skillet, she's tried for simple murder. The motive given is the years of abuse, not the hate she felt. If she gets along well with her husband until one day he comes home and says "Guess what, Honey? I'm a faggot!" and she bashes his head in with a handy skillet, she's tried for a hate crime. This is thought crime. Hate crimes are nothing less than thought crimes. Many crimes of violence are motivated by hate, but the only ones prosecuted as such are about race or homosexuality. "Hate crimes" are a massive infringement on freedom of speech. How in hell do you stop people from hating? You don't, and creating a Special Circumstance with Additional Penalties for Special Groups is undisputably unconstitutional.

There is a firm belief up here that "anything goes" is not acceptable.

Glasgow Airport isn't in London, it isn't even in England. It's 413 miles away in Scotland, in fact it's in Paisley ... Scotland's largest Town. I'm glad it's not a news story you're doing, enough people think Scotland is part of England as it is without this drivel. Scotland is a country in it's own right. The UK has more than one city. Sorry if this sounds a bit harsh, this sort of inaccuracy riles me somewhat ;) Hello Salvia,

He stated his view, from what I saw rather well, and didn't personally attack anyone, did he? (I may have missed it) In reality, we are all wrong at one point or another... and we are all right at one point or another, so I would have to say his comment is correct. @ Angel

Also, racism is Rachel’s explanation for pretty much everything. She’s right sometimes, but only in the sense that a stopped clock is.

Just a little inside info, Salvia:

Brandon’s just pissed because he was banned from Alas, a Blog because he’s a sexist who can’t see past his own white male privilege.
