Can you believe five years in prison for speech based on someone’s subjective feelings about it?

The "user content" in OPs that the existing rules require needs to be "stepped up".. "Get a load of this" -- is no longer sufficient topical content"... Must be 2 lines or more.. The more the better.. Must SUMMARIZE the topic to be discussed and why you think it NEEDS discussion..

To sum that up.. We're REQUIRING the Original Posters to START a clean topical discussion.,. No more juiced incendiary titles and ranting OPs.. If it's important enough for you to dash to a keyboard to poke it in -- need to put in the effort to start the discussion with YOUR views of the topic..

The same folks who wrote this also tell us that silence is violence as well. Emotionally stunted liberals are getting more pathetic by the day.

You mad that were actually expected to read the article? I noticed you didn't actually comment on it. Sad.

Democrats have been high on thought crimes for a long time. "Hate crime laws" are nothing but thought crime laws, intended to allow double jeopardy when Democrat prosecutors are not satisfied that certain defendants will be sufficiently punished.

I know it is just exactly like the laws written to keep drag shows illegal.

You can think whatever you want no one but you hears that.

They are seeking to stop violent speech. Have you never heard of terroristic threatening?

I noted what I thought about the lack of thought and ideas by the OP but that seems common from those led by sites like this one.

WTF?

Teabagger whining about a law being expanded.

House Bills 4474-4477 would enact the Michigan Hate Crime Act and the Institutional Desecration Act, update sentencing guidelines and make it easier to prosecute individuals who target others for their ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, age or disability.

This would begin the process to “transform Michigan from a national laggard to a national leader on hate crimes prevention, intervention and response,” Arbit said.

Arbit noted that the Ethnic Intimidation Act, which has been Michigan law since 1988, has not been amended once since its passage despite a great need to do so.
