I&#039;m not proud of it, but I once killed a man wearing a kilt. It wasn&#039;t just the shock of the bagpipe music, but he wasn&#039;t wearing underwear. Oh the horror! It was terrifying and intimidating. Even after all of these years it continues to haunt me, because in retrospect, he may have just been an old lady with a flute working a Salvation Army stand. Thankfully, none of that matters because this is America and I was afraid enough to be innocent. The system works.

JFC, there is a lot of precedent for their misuse. That&#039;s why &quot;gay panic defense&quot; is even a thing. Remember Matthew Shepard? Scott Amedure?

Do you mean that this fascist poltician doesn&#039;t want people to be able to use the &quot;cause he/she was icky and made me uncomfortable&quot; defense?
It&#039;s a war on Christianity I tell you! A war!
This is a guy who makes his living pulling the wool over jurors&#039; eyes. Of course he&#039;s going to praise their genius, and oppose any law that infringes on his creative wool-pulling.

If you could somehow work Bohemians into it, it would be a Mimi mime meme.
This was the theme of a &quot;Rumpole of the Bailey&quot; episode: &quot;The Guardsman&#039;s Defense.&quot;

But it&#039;s still OK to blame Twinkies, right?
But if he&#039;s BLACK and gay, it&#039;s all right then, right?
I once killed a man in Reno, just to watch him die. In my defense, I thought mebbe he was Gay. Forgot to ask, though. But he might&#039;ve been.
