Yes, murder is murder and the US murder statistics stand out like a malignant
cancer. The extreme right wing hate mongers have so many reason and excuses
for violence that it is astounding. Bob Grant, Rush, Limbaugh, G. Gordon
Liddy and others give us more daily. The hate murder is unique in motivation
because it is not based upon some twisted notion of benefiting oneself. It is
based upon the absurd notion that certain groups, who do not harm other, are
intrinsically evil so that one is justified before God and right thinking
people for killing this person(s). Of course, those who encourage such action
obviously bear some measure of responsibility. Even if such creatures as Bob
Grant sincerely believe that they have some special role in helping to
eliminate homosexuals, i.e. even if they are completely insane, it does not
exonerate them from their responsibility to meet the natural requirements of
courtesy, respect, and tolerance for others that living in a democratic civil
society entails.

This statement does not make sense.
DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soapboxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
