Is First Amendment viewpoint-discriminatory against antigayspeech?

	Well, from reading criminology literature, which seems to
suggest that the overwhelming majority of crime relates to gangs, drugs,
felonies, love triangles, and the like, and which offers no evidence
that politically motivated crime is a large fraction of all violence.
(I've taught a seminar on firearms regulation policy, which has chiefly
focused on criminology; this has required me to become pretty familiar
with various crime statistics.)

	But it sounds like you have a rival source of information -- can
you point us to it, please?  There are, for instance, about 15,000
homicides in the country each year.  What fraction do you think is
politically motivated, whether right-wing or left-wing?  Is there any
reason to think that it's anything more than a tiny fraction?  

	As to racism, note in particular that the great majority of
homicide is intrarace.  For instance,
http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/homicide/tables/ovracetab.htm reports
(recognizing, of course, that one can't tell the offender's race when
the homicide is unsolved) that in 2005 there were 4755 white-on-white
homicides, 934 black-on-white, 4497 black-on-black, and 337
white-on-black.  I recognize that there are possible twists here, for
instance with regard to Hispanics both as victims and perpetrators.  But
the big picture seems to be that very little of this homicide is likely
to be motivated by racism, whether right-wing racism or left-wing
racism.  The Klan and Klan sympathizers, heinous as they are, are a tiny
sliver of the homicide problem.  "[T]he major purveyors of informal
violence" against blacks today are those black criminals who prey on
members of their own racial group, not white racists; these numbers show
this for murder, but the same is generally true for other violent crimes
as well.
