Should racism, bigotry, etc. be against the law?

[traderdan]

If there is ONE THING we need in this nation...it is a real true hatred of NEW LAWS!

Isn't Hillary and the left trying to make the new "racism, bigotry, sexism, etc." just being a supporter of Trump/Republican party?

Our few patriotic children will hate these last couple generations for letting this republic slip thru our fingers. Is this hate speech?

Trump is doing a fine job of that himself.

 

[traderdan]

Of course she is! Dumb Americans will receive her message also...

How can our children receive an education in this nation, and fail to learn logic, and the ability to REASON??

It's definitely not the last couple of generations. The Lost and Greatest Generations are the ones that put us where we are. They created the entire handout culture for themselves. That $25 of Ida Mae Fuller paid out well.

Dont we aalready make this illegal, at least when someone commits a crime? Seems like if someone is accused of a crime, if they determine that the perp has ever had racist or bigotted thoughts doesnt it then be ccome a hate crime and we burn them at the stake pre-trial?

Sometimes they get taken to Burger King, instead.

Read my post again. In its entirety. And make sure your screen can display purple. If I cant use purple, and even clarify at the end, I dont know what to do. Sheesh.

I read it. I can see the purple just fine. I was just hoping for more. I wanted drama...this is INGO, after all...

Agreed. Got a less than acceptable cheeseburger there a week or so ago. I mean c'mon, you can't even give me a burger patty that covers the entire bun?

How is that exactly? Links?

Hmmm.... I thought it was well known that those types of groups support Trump. Do you think they flipped a coin to figure out who to support?

So is Christ responsible for those who "SAY" they are Christians, but act nothing like Christ?

Isn't the grand-poobah of the KKK a Hillary supporter? Isn't the BLM "movement" largely composed of Hillary/Bernie supporters? (Certainly haven't seen a "trumper" in that crowd) Hasn't Hillary (via her foundation) taken millions from known anti-gay, anti-women's-lib Saudi's?

Not to say some pretty wacky folks haven't thrown in with all 4 candidates, but Trump hardly corner's that market. I would hazard to say that Trump supporters are no more bigoted than Hillary supporters.

Let's use your premise. I'll change it a bit. "So is Trump responsible for those that "say" they are Trump supporters, but act noting like Trump supporters?"

For your analogy to be valid in the "not acting like Trump supporters," you have to prove they are simply saying they are Trump supporters without actually being one. I will submit the most commonly cited racist Trump supporter, David Duke.

I haven't addressed Clinton's loons.

That is not the analogy...though any analogy where Trump is the "Christ" leaves me shaking my head.

...but here goes anyway- the issue is not the groups acting like Trump supporters, it's whether the groups are acting like Trump.

Christ had followers who wanted a violent overthrow of Rome and only followed him because they thought He would lead it. That was not Christs plan at all. In YOUR analogy, Christ is guilty of promoting violent zealots because violent zealots misunderstood His message.

Trump is not responsible for who follows him, especially if people misunderstand his message.

Well now I feel dirty. I've defended Trump and compared him to Christ. I hate myself.

Which begs the question, what type of rhetoric would make him responsible?
