[QUOTE="donner, post: 1473556, member: 277"] i'd be fine with that. I don't think hate laws are a good thing. Making actions illegal is one thing, making the thoughts behind them is something else entirely. Why should beating someone up be any worse whether you uttered a gay slur instead of just thinking it? All the hate crime law does is make it a tougher sentence because you expressed an idea (in this case that being gay was somehow bad or something). [/QUOTE]
