X... are you comparing murder to someone defacing public/private property? People HAVE THE RIGHT TO HATE OTHER PEOPLE. That's their 1st amendent inalienable right. What they don't have the right to do is violate the rights of others, especially the right to life. Since we all have this inalienable right to live, pursue happiness.. etc, it is irrelevant why they murder, but that in murdering they have permanently denied someone of their most basic inalienable rights. If you focus attention on "hate murder" against a specific segment of society, then by its very nature as a "special crime", it desensitizes people's outrage about "normal murder".. Btw, I heard that same joke over a year ago, but the brunt of it was directed against blonde women... Why should I be more outraged about the joke being altered to focus on gay men? The joke was a play on words, namely "cereal killer"... And in fact, I believe it was originally spoken as a "Pollock" joke... You really need to lighten up..... That joke could be reconstructed to involve whatever race, sex, or creed....
