Uh.. No, this is more like, "The cop in my town can do it, but I don't 
want them damn Highway Patrol people laying a hand on me." The point is, 
the man protesting the government reform is the same one who instituted 
the near identical thing in his own state. And he isn't the only one. 
Can't remember which one, but they recently *elected* a Tea Party moron, 
who promised to go after the current bill, while his own state has one 
which is universal, which this one isn't even close to being.

But, that isn't some of the craziest out there. There is actually one 
state which just passed a law that a) attempts to deny the federal 
government from interfering with investigations of hate crimes in their 
state, and b) excludes a specific set of definitions for that, in their 
own law, so that they can continue to discriminate. The absolutely 
hilarious thing is, they intended to erase the part of the law that 
covered gay people, so that churches could "continue to tell the truth 
about the gay agenda...". Ooooh! Only one problem. The morons wrote the 
law wrong, and instead of repealing the new law that covered gay 
bashing, they repealed the portion of their state law covering, 
"Discrimination on the basis of race, color, or religion." Apparently.. 
they are real damn good at hating them gays, but not so good at keeping 
track of ***numbers***, which are used to refer to the subclauses that 
cover a specific definition of the crimes.

In other words, its **still** illegal to bash gays, but no longer 
illegal there to bash and/or discriminate against Jews, Christians, 
women, men, blacks, hispanics, indians, or ***anything else***. But, you 
can't do it against gay people, since that part of the law is still in 
effect. lol

We are dealing with serious morons here.
