And they want to say this hate crimes bill is unnecessary. Yeah right!Tell that to the family of Kenneth Cummings Jr., a Southwest flight attendant, who was killed by a man who believed he was doing God's work. Religion creates some crazy people, but that's religion for you, when there's no reason! {Houston Chronicle}:
"I believe I'm Elijah, called by God to be a prophet," said 26-year-old Terry Mark Mangum, charged with murder June 11. " ... I believe with all my heart that I was doing the right thing."
Interviewed in the Brazoria County Jail Saturday morning, Mangum said he feels no remorse for killing 46-year-old Kenneth Cummings Jr., whom relatives described as a "loving" son who never forgot a holiday and a devoted uncle who had set up college funds for his niece and nephew. He worked at Southwest for 24 years.
Mangum, who described himself as "definitely not a homosexual," said God called on him to "carry out a code of retribution" by killing a gay man because "sexual perversion" is the "worst sin."
Mangum believed Cummings to be gay.
"I planned on sending him to hell," he said.
Cummings was stabbed with a six-inch blade, his body was found near San Antonio on property owned by Mangum's grandfather.
While there are some who are debating about whether there should be hate crimes law, the fact is their on the books. So why not sexual orientation and gender identity to make sure every American is protected by bias hate crimes. Religion is already included-- protection which these cafeteria Christians aren't willing to give up. After all religion is a choice!
Furthermore, it's the religious extremists who claim to be "christian", by their mouths, but it always seems their hearts are far away from God. Isaiah and Jesus said something like that. The usual suspects are no surprise--the Traditional Values Coalition, the American Family Association, Concerned Women for America and the rest of the professional persecuted "Christian" set-- who just love to hide behind and use misguided homo-hating black pastors.
Rustin Thomas came up with this insane statement:
Yes, I dare state that there is a direct connection between the sins and crimes of abortion and the sodomite agenda and the Islamic terrorism that threatens our nation."
Once again sodomite is NOT a biblical term, and I have never been to Sodom and Gomorrah. The two cities God supposedly destroyed.
Another black puppet was brought out as expected.Here's Rev. Johnny Hunter of the Life Education and Resource Network:
"Pastors not only have a right, but they have an obligation to state emphatically that according to scripture, a man or a woman should not perform a sex act with a person of the same sex...nor with a dog...nor with a snake...nor with a hamster or any other creature."
How the hell he bring humans in with animals? Who would have sex with hamster, snake, or dog? I have heard of a dog before, but that's just freaky! Eww.
They know that they can quote and take Leviticus and Romans out context all day long if the measure is passed. The ACLU has outlined how free speech will be protected, but no that doesn't matter in their minds. Is this Doing God's Work? Ha, You better ask somebody!

This is not the work of religion, this is the work of the twisted mindset hiding behind principles of religion.
Still, hate crime laws are unnecessary. It is biased and creates a sense of favortism. All crimes are to be punished equally, and the hate crime law would cause and under toned readjustment that would favor gays, which cannot be allowed.
There is many senseless crimes in America, but if the culprit is caught, they will be punished according to the justice we have in place. To have a "special" law enacted to "protect" gays, is unfair to other types of crimes that exist.
@Captain: Yes i agree all crimes should be punish equally.
However, there is nothing special about being free of violence.
Sexual orientation includeds straights, my homo-hating friend.
If hate crimes law are not need for gays on the federal level, than remove religion, race, gender, from the current law. Make it all equal. Until than the new laaw is much needed!
You have the right mindset, but still you lack the scope of the law...adding sexual orientation, value adding homosexuality, is not worthy enough for federal protection.
