We should not need special "gay rights" or "gender rights" or "race rights" etc.
We need only enforce the BOR's for every citizen.
For example "hate" isn't a crime but assault is . The reason you assaulted someone might be a mitigating factor in sentencing . If you assaulted him because of his skin color you get the max sentence, if you assaulted him because he raped your sister ( and you have evidence) slap on the wrist. But the "hate " isn't the crime, the assault is.
How about plain old rights instead of a set of rights and laws saying the same thing for each group?
I consider myself a peopleist.

Same BoR and laws for everyone, including the government, is called rule of law. We have rule of man. It's arbitrary, special.

Equality does not recognize groups.

Exactly, we need to stress people's rights, not categories of people
