Title: What the Hate Crimes Law Would Do

What the Hate Crimes Law Would Do

Last week the House Judiciary Committee, egged on by radical homosexual groups, passed what can only be called a Thought Crimes bill. It’s called the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act. But this bill is not about hate. It’s not even about crime. It’s about outlawing peaceful speech—speech that asserts that homosexual behavior is morally wrong.

This is the unspoken goal of activist groups. We know this because during the debate over the bill last week, Congressman Mike Pence (R) of Indiana offered a Freedom of Religion amendment to this hate crimes bill. It asked that nothing in this law limit the religious freedom of any person or group under the Constitution. The committee refused to adopt it. It also refused to adopt amendments protecting other groups from hate crimes—like members of the military, who are often targets of verbal attacks and spitting. They also shot down amendments that would protect the homeless and senior citizens, also often targeted by criminals. Nothing doing, the committee said—the only group they wanted to protect: homosexuals.

The full Congress may vote on this bill as early as this week. Unless you want Big Brother telling you what to say, what to think, and what to believe, I urge you to contact your congressman immediately, urging him or her to vote against this bill. If you visit the BreakPoint website, you’ll find more information about this radical law. Below the article you'll see a section that says "Take Action".

PLEASE, I URGE YOU TO TAKE ACTION NOW!!

I already posted several on this today brother. If you take a look at them you will notice that this bill is not just about silencing people on homosexuals. The wording in this bill would prevent people from voicing their opinions against all sorts of sexual sins too numerous to even begin mentioning here.

The beginning of the end...as we know it.  I pity anyone who isn't covered by the blood of Jesus.
