Without really digging into that classy little bit up there, it seems pretty obvious that you haven't read the bill or know anything about other than that it has something to do with gays, so it must be bad.

The bill covers gays and non-gays alike. If someone attacks you (not gay) because they think you are gay (even though you aren't) and they carve the word F-A-G in your stomach, that's still a hate crime. If that were to happen, I'm sure there'd be lines of people standing around saying "If he would have just kept his gayness to himself this wouldn't have happened." That, by the way, is the same awful logic that says that if women would just wear pants and sweatshirts, they wouldn't get raped -- that it's their fault.

Foolish.
