WISDOM IN KANSAS:
Whoda thunk it...
The Washington Post reports http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/21/AR2005102100739_pf.html that the Supreme Court of the State of Kansas struck down a law that punishes underage sexual activity more severely if it involves homosexual acts.
Gotta ask: They sent this guy to jail for giving somebody a BJ. What do they think he did while in jail???
Seriously, the Court's reasoning is compelling: "Moral disapproval of a group cannot be a legitimate state interest."
That should be chiseled in stone on Courthouse walls, posted right next to the Ten Commandments. And if there is only room for ten, replace the first one with this one...

Agreed. All men are created equal. Should be no special treatment for any "group". This line of thinking shows the illogic of hate crime legislation.
