Because the issue is really about what?

Even so often I read a press release and think, “Are they serious?” Try this paragraph by Friends of Ex-Gays & Gays spokesman Greg Quinlan.

"What will happen when Congress passes a national Hate Crimes law for gays and cross-dressers?" asked Quinlan. "Officially protected by law, homosexuals and the gender confused will expand their aggressive actions and censor ex-gay speech or behavior they disagree with as 'hateful,' 'discriminatory,' 'intimidation,' 'dangerous,' or 'leading to physical violence.' We know because this is what they already label us."

Right. I follow you. This Hate Crimes Prevention Bill is not really about protecting a targeted minority population. It’s all about a group of funding religious fanatics and the imaginary hate they are subjected to for being asshats. Greg Quinlan is an asshat. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

Quinlan argues insanity on his blog. I wonder if Quinlan understands the meaning of the term non sequitur?
