MORE THOUGHTS ON HATE CRIME LAWS
Yesterday there was a visitor in the WSB Radio Group complex that houses the Boortz studios. It was none other than Rev. Joseph Lowery, past president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.
Lowery is one of the principal proponents of government-sponsored racial discrimination in the nation. He seems to have become increasingly bitter as more and more people in and out of government come to the conclusion that racial discrimination is bad stuff.
Lowery and I exchanged a few “pleasant” words, and as he walked off he was heard to
mutter “Gore hate monger.”
So, there it was. That “hate” word again. Damn, how the left loves to use the hate word.
This brings me back to the subject of hate crime laws. This has been one of the principal platform for scaring black voters to the polls to vote for Al Gore.
Hate crime legislation is about criminalizing thought. It’s about making an emotion an
element in a crime --- and making emotion punishable.
Let’s look at the Texas case the race warlords are invoking to frighten black voters. It’s the James Byrd case --- the incident where three white bigots drug Byrd behind a pickup truck until he was dead. All three of the murderers were convicted. Two got the death penalty – one life in prison.
Even though two of the murderers are going to die --- that isn’t enough for the left. Nobody seems to have an idea how you can punish these pigs any more than you do by
putting them to death …. but that’s not the issue. The leftists aren’t unhappy with the
punishment doled out to these murderers ---- they’re unhappy because they’re being
punished for their actions and not for their emotions and thoughts.
Look --- if you’re going to talk about “hate crime laws” then somebody had better sit down and give us a good definition of “hate.”
The fact is the left won’t give you the definition of “hate,” so I will.
“Hate” is any negative thought, expression or feeling against leftist dogma, or the people
who promote that dogma.
“Hate” is the expression of any opposition to any position promoted by a member of any
protected minority group or any liberal or left-wing policymaker or politician.
That brings us back to Joseph Lowery. He called me a “Gore hate monger” yesterday for no reason other than the fact that I am opposed to his election as president and that I have expressed my opinions that Gore is dishonest, a liar, and a big-government
politician.
You have to listen to everything these leftists are saying. On the one hand they’re
pushing hard for some type of law that makes “hate” a crime – or an element of a crime.
On the other hand they’re tagging expressions of disagreement with leftist political
objectives and politicians as “hate speech” and the people who express those positions
as “hate mongers.”
Follow all of this to it’s logical conclusion. It takes you to a time in this country where people can be punished for thoughts, utterances, expressions and writings which anger those holding political power. That’s the ultimate goal of the leftists pushing the “hate crimes” agenda.
++++++++++++++++
Some are just more equal than others, I suppose.

"The Constitution is the fundamental law for the federal government. If that government's own courts can arbitrarily change it's meaning, the government becomes a law unto itself --- that is a lawless government, a government of men, not of law." -- Joseph Sobran
"But how is this legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime." -- Frederic Bastiat
