It can be but most cases are to relief the weight which is the cause of neck- and backpains.
Originally posted by garhkal View PostAnd if you look, the murder rates in 'CAN CARRY' states are LESS than those with more restrictive gun laws.. So reducing the guns is NOT a 'reduce murders'.
Originally posted by jelgate View PostI know I shouldn't laugh but I couldn't help myself about the notion of making homosexuality a crime. I will now be suggesting anyone who weighs more than 300 lbs should be thrown in prison
Just saying...

Originally posted by Annoyed View Post2: Who died and made SPLC arbiter of who is a hate group and who isn't? One cockamamie group defines another cockamamie group as a "hate group", and that is what they are from then on? Sorry, SPLC, you are a private organization with no better legal standing than the organizations you pillory.
"A hate group is a social group that advocates and practices hatred, hostility, or violence towards members of a race, ethnicity, nation, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation or any other designated sector of society.
According to the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), a hate group's "primary purpose is to promote animosity, hostility, and malice against persons belonging to a race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or ethnicity/national origin which differs from that of the members of the organization."
Definition of a hate crime:
"A hate crime is a criminal offense against a person or property motivated in whole or in part by an offender’s bias against a race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, ethnicity, gender, or gender identity.
Hate itself is not a crime."
Here's the about-us page from the group where AG Sessions was invited to speech -- Alliance Defending Freedom -- Who We Are
The three things they wish to protect:
Religious Freedom
Sanctity of Life
Marriage and Family
There you go, the last page spreads information which has been proven false, time and time again. Probably why the SPLC puts them under the hate group column -- it is one of the things they look at when they rate groups.
Also, Garhkal -- these guys are right up your ally. Are you sure you're agnost?

It's some extra stupid new paywall replacement.
Or google "New York Times When Speech Is Violence".If Algeria introduced a resolution declaring that the earth was flat and that Israel had flattened it, it would pass by a vote of 164 to 13 with 26 abstentions.- Abba Eban.

Originally posted by Falcon Horus View PostActually, states with strict gun laws have lesser shooting victims altogether.
Look at Chiraq, detroit and NY.. Compare their murder rates to Texas, Florida or Kentucky.
Originally posted by Falcon Horus View PostActually, it used to be a crime, and still is a crime in a lot of places.
