Some commentators appear to have been caught flat-footed, bemoaning the hate crimes legislation enacted to cover, at last, 'sexual orientation'. How?
Well, the senate, spurred by the irksome Senator Sessions, voted overwhelmingly to federalize crime against service members. ...AND any of their property ... OR their family or any of their property.
From the "small government" crowd, crickets, leaving one to conclude, once again, that it really is all about the gay ...
From the so-called "libertarians", who might cast a wary eye on the wide net of 'conspiracy to harm' written in the legislation as a militarization of sorts, crickets.
