She is for real, another deplorable republican specimen, that sits in congress of the USA

Not a HATE CRIME?????

Bill, opposed by Bush in 2007, gives gay victims new protections.

Less than one month after she used the term “tar baby” on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives, Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-N.C.) has managed to offend another group of Americans: gay people.
Speaking on the House floor Wednesday while a hate crimes bill – known as the “Matthew Shepard bill,” after the gay 21-year-old who was brutally murdered in 1998 – was being debated, Foxx called the University of Wyoming student’s association with the legislation “a hoax” because, she said, Shepard was not killed because of his sexual orientation.

Gays don't deserve special protection. No minority does.

I think that was Rep. Foxx's point. This Democrat "hate crimes" law is a hoax. It's a useless law. Every state in the USA has laws against assaulting people, murder, etc.

What happened to Matthew Shepard was a tragedy. But for the whole of society it's no greater tragedy than any of the other murders that take place in every country on earth every day.

I wish more Republicans would make statements like Rep. Foxx. Lyn fromwembleypark.com
