As much as I hate to agree with the intolerant scumbag assholes harassing gay people, ALL OF AMERICA IS A FREE SPEECH ZONE!!! We don't require the permission of government to peacefully gather on public grounds, and a cop has no legitimate authority to tell us to break it up or to leave. Government has no grounds to censor the kind of message or the method of delivery.

All violent crimes are hate crimes. And hate crime legislation is a farse. It's an attempt to turn the government into the thought police. The legitimate role of government is to punish crimes, not motives. We have the right to hate anyone we want.

There is no difference in a crime where a man kills an old lady because he wants her purse, and in a crime where he kills her because she's Jewish. In either case she's equally dead. The crime is killing her, not hating her.

Homosexuality is not a race or an ethnic group, but it is something you're born as every bit as much as a race or ethic group. Being gay is like being black. You're born that way or you're not and nothing anyone says to the contrary has any validity.
