We don’t need another politically correct law for murder. Its already covered under well murder. Its all about expanding this hate crime chit.

Thank you, Rand Paul for saving us from these vague laws that can mean anything.
If they want a “Lynching” as in rope- around -the -neck there would be no controversy Clarence Thomas used the term for his despicable treatment. Be careful what you wish for

Anyone Notice how all these “hate” crime laws move closer and closer to white people not being able to disagree or defend themselves from violence?

[MrKatykelly]

No, we don’t need any more laws. The government has thousands of lawyers, they can dump a $100,000 or a $million dollar legal bill on you over night as we’ve seen plenty of since 2017. The Brown Shirts have been replaced by the White Shirts, but the end result is the same, you’re destroyed and your family is hungry.

My wife’s ex wrote a book about the last black lynched in Illinois. Ironically, a white was lynched in the same town, the same day. No books will be written about him.

They are trying to redefine the word “lynching”.

A small bruise or abrasion is “lynching” is this bill.
