		<description>Wow, &quot;Your average middle class male&quot;, responding from work on a Comcast Business IP address in Washington, DC.  Threatening violence is only the first aspect of a disturbed mind.  Get help.

If two people are beaten at the same time, and one just happens to be gay, guess what?  That&#039;s not a hate crime!  That&#039;s two people being beaten up at the same time.  But what about people chasing down a suspected gay man and beating him?  You know, &lt;a href=&quot;http://gaylife.about.com/od/hatecrimes/a/charleshoward.htm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;like this man&lt;/a&gt;,  or &lt;a href=&quot;http://news.google.com/news/url?sa=t&amp;ct2=us%2F0_0_s_0_0_t&amp;usg=AFQjCNGfj5TeWVDZ5eK5wUfjSsF5C1VEmQ&amp;cid=1452159330&amp;ei=0braSpi5FITclQSW-4-qAQ&amp;rt=SEARCH&amp;vm=STANDARD&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.edgeboston.com%2Findex.php%3Fch%3Dnews%26sc%3D%26sc2%3Dnews%26sc3%3D%26id%3D97805&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this man&lt;/a&gt;, or &lt;a href=&quot;http://kykernel.com/2009/10/14/the-hate-crime-that-changed-the-way-we-think-learning-from-laramie/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this man&lt;/a&gt;, or &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thegrio.com/2009/10/early-on-l-knew-my.php&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this trans-man&lt;/a&gt;,  or &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-136859142.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this woman&lt;/a&gt;, or &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kxmc.com/custom404.asp?404;http://www.kxmc.com/News/316785.asp&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this woman&lt;/a&gt;.  

You know what the irony is here?  As an overweight person, YOU HAD SPECIAL RIGHTS!  But those gays... No, they don&#039;t deserve anything.  Yeah, right.</description>

		<description>If you want to be gay that is your business but you do not deserve special treatment because you are a freak.  I will not beat you because you are sick and diseased.  But, I also will not give you special treatment by passing special laws for a very, very small part of our population.  If a straight man and a gay are beat by the same group of men they should not receive a more severe punishment for beating the gay than the straight man!!!  The beating of the gay should not be treated as a hate crime.  It is wrong to beat any person regardless of race, religion or sexual orientation or any other reason for that matter.  We currently have laws on the books to deal with such situations.  We do not need Caesar doling out special treatment for each and every group that comes along.

For a large portion of my life I was picked on, harassed and even beat because I was overweight . . . no differnet than your being gay!!!  I did not and would never consider asking the government on any level to give me special treatment and you have no right to do the same.</description>
