Anytime a decent
bill that would help end discrimination appears FEAR of it emanating from Communistic forces is interjected into
why it is inappropriate.


I don't consider it a decent bill nor one that would help end discrimination.

As for the communist reference well it is true that any argument that "X did Y", with an evil and/or unpopular X is almost always a really weak argument (except perhaps it might not be weak as a matter of rhetoric). After all even the worst groups also do lots of things that aren't bad. Its unfortunate that so much of the article uses the guilt by association argument.
