A Christian Liberal is NOT an oxymoron.

Ohio man sentenced for sending racial hate letters.

It just isn’t true. We are free to send as many racist letters as we want. Buried in the story is the real reason this idiot got into trouble:

According to the April 9 indictment, Tuason sent a letter to the Supreme Court on July 25, 2003, addressed to an associate justice of the court referred to as “CT.” The indictment only used the initials of victims.

In the letter, which contained several racially derogatory remarks, the writer threatened to blow up the Supreme Court building, and wrote that “CT” would be “castrated, shot or set on fire … I want him killed.”

It is against federal law to threaten a federal judge – including Clarence Thomas, who is the only associate justice with those initials. The indictment was not for scaring other people. Just the federal judge. Who, all things considered, probably wasn’t that scared. By all accounts, Clarence Thomas can take care of himself. Then you have the Capitol Police, security guards, and whatnot.

So who benefits from the skewed headline? Consider that it wrongfully gives the impression that the man was imprisoned for his thoughts.
