[Vision2020] Hansen's support for political genocide not funny

[Phil Nisbet]

I am passing this on to friends with the Log Cabin Republicans.  I am sure 
that they will not find humor in calls for genocide because of their politcs 
anymore than lack of civil rights that Ohio's ban on Gay adoption is.

What do you have next for us Hansen.  A nice chortle about how fun it is to 
slaughter Jews?

>Cool beans!

>Specifically, Hagan's bill would "ban households with one or more

>Hagan closed his e-mail with a plea for a co-sponsor. So far, no takers.

>Strange. Ohio legislators are willing to consider a bill introduced by Rep.
>Ron Hood to ban homosexuals from being adoptive or foster parents. That

>
>Or people whose eyes are too close together. (Oh, I hate them.)

>Hood's bill goes beyond homosexuals. It would also ban children from homes

>cross-dressing is contagious.

>So, too, is Republicanism. More so, actually.

>If a boy is raised by a cross-dressing father, the lad may or may not take

>All those noxious opinions floating around the air inevitably get sucked

>Hagan says "credible research" (at least as credible as the research on

>households are more at risk for developing "emotional problems, social
>stigmas, inflated egos and alarming lack of tolerance for others they deem

>insecurities."
>
>How horrible.
>
>The victim starts babbling incoherently about illegal aliens, homosexuals,

>Banning adoptions by Republicans is a modest means of quarantine. Should

>It just insists that if people choose to be a Republican they have to keep

>The pendulum has swung too far in the opposite direction in recent years,

>Republicans are protected from housing and job discrimination. They're

>None of this means Republicans should have unfettered access to vulnerable

>Hagan thinks the bill targeting homosexuals is a big waste of time.

>But Republicans ... ugh. Look at all the problems they create for society.
