Default Watch out For Hate Crimes Rider On Upcoming Bills

There is a hate crimes amendment floating around capitol hill with some interesting loopholes that could make any expression of IDEAS about homosexuality a crime. We are all against violence upon other people, but the ambiguities in this rider could seriously hamper public debate concerning homosexuality, as well as other first amendment concerns if your comments do not fall on the "right side of the debate." Contact your representatives about it (I will find the name of the amendment, no number yet).

Hate crimes. That term really rubs me the wrong way anyway. Aren't all crimes "hate crimes"? Why should a crime committed against a minority be punished any more secerly than anyone else anyway?
