Guest guest Posted March 13, 2000 Report Share Posted March 13, 2000 Hi everyone, the recent storys about the little CMT children getting bullied by their peers got me to thinking. Have any of you, as adults, been the victim of such hate because of your CMT? Whether you have encountered people giving you a hard time on the job, or parking in a handicapped zone, either subtle 'hate' or otherwise? Reason I ask is there is the Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 1999 sitting in Congress. And far as I know, it doesn't include specifics for disabled people. Sen. Dennis Hastert (Ill.) is a sponsor of the Act and doesn't seem to think disabled people are victims of any hate crimes and should not be included! Just me, thinking 'out loud' and questioning as usual this Monday morning! Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
