I don't go about harassing anyone. I just despise the nanny state crap that anti-bullying laws represent. Like I said, you can't legislate it so people are forced to be nice to one another. You can't legislate away competition and aggression. How is that even remotely healthy?
You can legislate to force people to act with minimum civility though.
Its very healthy, it prevents the aggressive dominating the weaker, we have moved on from trial by combat - at least im civilised countries.
How very Christian of you.
Our morality in western society is based on Christian values, however You do not have to be a Christian to adopt a philosophy that treading on another persons existence negatively  is wrong.

No, it's considered racist against black people. The KKK used to (probably still does in certain areas) burn wooden crosses, in the early 20th and late 19th centuries they would burn the black people on them, or hang them, or both.

It's hilarious that you don't know what a libertarian is but feel that it's useful as an insult

Or that referring to someone by a religious term (along with a political affiliation he clearly doesn't understand) is somehow an insult.

Those guys rode for my best friend's funeral a couple of years ago--they're some awesome people. Since the funeral was in OK and the crash had gotten some media coverage, there was some concern the WBC would show up.
