Which Neighbors Have Concealed Weapons Permits? (Redwood City, Ca. publishes list)

254. I'm shocked!

You find no dichotomy in your positions. You freely admit that you would publicly brand people engaging in a lawful activity simply because you disapprove.

"I have recommended a large conical hat sporting a large "G"...."

It is not one bit different from a gaggle of schoolchildren taunting a fat kid. No different than making "fun" of the "retard," or any manner of hateful speech directed at a group or individuals simply because another group has given themselves permission to hate them.

Few are more judgmental than reformed smokers. The biggest difference between the current crop of nicotine Nazis and the originals is the originals had snappier uniforms. Gym rats are another bunch who freely voice their contempt for anyone who is overweight. Prejudice is prejudice whether or not it is directed against a "protected class."

Is there a difference in saying:

"All gun owners are inbred rednecks who live in trailer parks and fuck their sisters."

"All fat people are lazy, indolent, unmotivated and undisciplined or they wouldn't be such obese slobs."

"All smokers are contemptible polluters with no regard for their health, the health of others and if they weren't so weak-willed and worthless they would quit?"

It would seem that if you disapprove of a lawful behavior you are not satisfied to merely abstain, you insist that everyone else should conform to your view or be publicly branded.
