If HR 1913 passed the
US Senate, will the 1st Amendment be criminalized.
Please direct your attention to this message from our friends at
GrassTopsUSA.
If you believe the so-called hate crimes bill, HR
1913, the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009 - that liberals
quietly railroaded through the House of Representative a few days ago and
is now on the fast-track to be passed in the Senate any day now - is NOT an
imminent threat to YOUR way
of life... you MUST read
this letter.
If you believe that HR
1913 DOESN'T affect
you, or your family or your way of life because you don't "hate" anyone...
what you are about to read may disturb and shock you.
If you believe that those who claim that HR
1913 will lay
the foundation for the persecution of any and all people who simply reject
the most radical aspects of the gay agenda or sincerely believe that
marriage is between a man and a woman are
wearing tin-foil hats... the you REALLY
NEED to read this letter.
If you think it's a gross exaggeration to say that opposition
to the radical gay agenda will be effectively CRIMINALIZED and
American society will see an unprecedented uprising of militant
homosexuals demanding that anyone who speaks against their agenda be
hauled off to jail... think again.
At the risk of using cheap clichés; THIS
MAY BE THE MOST IMPORTANT LETTER YOU EVER READ.
In fact... you not only need to read this letter... you also need to
take action... and only after you have read this letter and taken action, YOU
NEED TO FORWARD THIS LETTER TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW.
Kevin Theriot with the Alliance Defense Fund claims that HR
1913 SERVES
ONLY ONE PURPOSE:
“So-called ‘hate crime’ laws actually serve only
one purpose: The criminalization of citizens based on whatever thoughts,
beliefs, and emotions they have that are not considered to be ‘politically
correct.’ No one should fall for the idea that this bill does anything to
bring about greater justice for Americans.”
But Theriot is not entirely correct. HR
1913 won't simply CRIMINALIZE
YOUR THOUGHTS, it may also DECRIMINALIZE
things like pedophilia and a host of other criminal perversions.
Congressman Louie Gohmert, a former judge, recounts to Human
Events, with obvious disgust, what
happened when House Republicans simply tried to amend HR
1913 so it did NOT OFFER
PROTECTION TO PEDOPHILES.
Take the time to read these statements... the sheer absurdity of what
Gohmert describes will make your skin crawl.
“'When we tried to get the term sexual
orientation narrowed down to where it didn’t include something like a
pedophile... that was voted down on party lines... there are about 30
different types of sexual orientations, and they can include exhibitionism
and voyeurism or things that are so offensive such as pedophilia or
necrophilia and bestiality. The problem is that the supporters of this
bill did not want to exclude any of those and even voted down the
amendment that would have excluded pedophilia.'”
"Gohmert pointed out the absurdity of the legislation as written which
would warrant the prosecution of a woman under the federal hate crimes
statues if she hits a flasher with her purse after he exposed himself to
her. Exhibitionism is a protected sexual orientation under this bill.
“'The one who did the flashing committed a local misdemeanor,' Gohmert
said. 'The one who hit with the purse singled him out because he’s an
exhibitionist, and therefore she has now committed a federal hate crime
and is looking at felony time.'”
You read that right. And yes, if you keep reading, it gets EVEN
WORSE.
The Senate may vote on HR
1913 any day now.
The time to make your voice heard is now.

Blast Faxes to Barack Hussein Obama and each and every Member of the
Leadership of the United States Senate. Tell them that HR 1913 must not
pass under any circumstances. Demand that they do everything in their
power to defeat this perverse and prejudicial bill.

Yes Virginia, There Actually IS A Radical Homosexual
Agenda.
A great many things started coming out of the woodwork not too
long ago when the voters of California voted on Proposition
8, a very simply amendment that affirms that marriage is between one
man and one woman.
As that battle started to pick up steam, David Benkof wrote the
following in the Seattle
Post-Intelligencer. As you read the quote below, keep in mind that Benkof
is no "right-wing
extremist." Actually,
he's been a "gay-activist" for
over a decade.
"For the past two weeks, I have been contacting
'marriage equality' leaders all over California to ask about the impact of
redefining marriage on religious freedom. All, including several prominent
lesbian and gay legislators and other leaders, have refused to disclose
their opinions, some repeatedly."
"Although California marriage-equality leaders won't say what impact they
expect the new decision to have on religious freedom, activists in other
states haven't been so shy. Openly gay Washington state Sen. Ed Murray,
D-Seattle, and a representative of the largest Michigan gay-rights group,
the Triangle Foundation, have both told me that people who continue to act
as if marriage is a union between a man and a woman should face being
fined, fired and even jailed until they relent."
Conservative activist, and former homosexual, James Hartline, offered
this insider's view:
"The Mechanical Eye states this is an imaginary
threat: That is what the gay movement would like all Californians to
believe right now."
"Well, I have absolute evidence that a number of homosexual entities are
already planning to sue pastors who refuse to perform same-sex weddings.
The ACLU is biting at the bit, as they have done for the past four
decades, to sue anyone who refuses to perform the same marriages that are
provided to heterosexual couples."
And just in case you're thinking that Benkof and Hartline are
engaging in mere supposition or repeating the hollow threats of others,
consider that many
states and localities already have hate crime laws on the books and these
laws are abused regularly.
Here's Tom Minnery of Focus on the Family, quoted in WorldNetDaily.com:
"'We've seen charges brought by homosexuals
against a video reproduction business in Virginia, a medical clinic in
California, an adoption service in Arizona and a church in New Jersey,' he
continued. 'Colorado tops them all on the potential outrage meter,
however, because in addition to civil fines and penalties, small-business
owners can be prosecuted under the criminal laws of Colorado and spend up
to one year in jail for trying to live according to their faith.'"
And you might remember the case of the Philadelphia 11.
A group of Christians (which
included grandmothers and young people) were
arrested on a variety of charges that carried prison terms of up to 47
years. Their "crime"?
They staged a peaceful protest at a Philadelphia "gay
fest." Incredibly, a
state judge got around the First Amendment and determined that the
prosecutions could go forward by asserting that the Christians’ speech
constituted “fighting
words.”
Of course you didn't read about these incidents (as
well as many others) in
your local paper or hear about these incidents on the nightly news. The
same Mainstream Media that either ignored or ridiculed the TEA Parties
that recently took place across the nation simply won't report on such
things.
And don't expect any help from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
Janet Napolitano's DHS apparently
believes that YOU are
a terrorist... a danger to the nation that must be carefully watched.

Did Miss California USA, Carrie Prejean, Violate HR
1913?
You already know what happened to Carrie Prejean, Miss USA
California.
During the question-and-answer portion of the Miss USA competition,
one of the judges, a "celebrity
blogger" (whatever
that is) by the name of
Perez Hilton asked Prejean how she felt about Proposition
8 and "same-sex
marriage."
Of course, questions of a politically nature are typically taboo in
beauty pageants but that didn't matter to Hilton.
It also didn't matter to Hilton that Prejean gave a very diplomatic
answer. She even qualified her answer by saying that it was great that we
lived in a country where people in individual states could vote on the
matter. Then she added that she PERSONALLY believed
that marriage is between a man and a woman.
The crowd cheered and Hilton became enraged (some
might even say unbalanced), it didn't matter Hilton that Prejean's
answer was given with poise and kindness. It didn't matter that Prejean's
answer didn't necessarily diminish Hilton's perceived "right" to
engage in homosexual acts and call it a "marriage."
What did matter to Hilton was that Prejean
didn't agree, in totality, with Hilton; and for her blasphemy, she had to
punished.
He gave her a big fat zero which may have cost her the Miss USA
crown.
But Hilton wasn't through with Prejean... not yet. That night - being
a celebrity blogger, apparently with something of a following - he posted
a hateful, rant on YouTube.com. He
screamed and called Prejean "a
stupid B-----."
Shortly thereafter, he "apologized," but hours
later he took the half-hearted apology back and called Prejean a "c---." Hilton
even drew
obscene images over photographs of Prejean, scanned them, and posted them
on the Internet.
Prejean may have gotten off easy. Fortunately for her, HR
1913 isn't the law
yet.
No... that's not an attempt at humor!
Let's say, for instance, that some unknown person decided that Hilton
was so rude that he was just asking for a beating (not
unlikely) and took matters
into his own hands.
Under HR
1913, Prejean could be charged with a hate crime and face years
in jail. UnderHR 1913, Hilton could
contend that Prejean's personal assertion that marriage is between a man
and a woman sparked the beating. If a court determined that there was an
element of conspiracy involved, or if it was determined that Prejean
possibly made the statement knowing that it could inflame some person to
physically harm Hilton, Prejean would be hauled off to jail.
Now admittedly, even in today's politically charged climate, it is
probable that Prejean would EVENTUALLY be
acquitted, but it can not be stressed enough that such
an assertion on Hilton's part would be more than enough to substantiate
such a charge. Prejean would be forced to go through the ordeal of arrest
and prosecution. She would be forced to hire an attorney, go to
court and spend an incredible amount of money defending herself.
Remember what happened to the Duke University Lacrosse Team several
years back. These young men were tirelessly pursued by a
political-opportunist masquerading as a local prosecutor.
When the prosecutor obtained evidence that proved the innocence of
these young men, he not only continued his prosecution, he withheld the
evidence. The media convicted these young men in the court of public
opinion within days. And yes, these young men were eventually
exonerated... but only after their lives had been ruined.
Make no mistake... HR
1913 is a horrendous
and tyrannical constraint on free speech.

Did Perez Hilton Expose The Radical Homosexual Agenda?
There's an old expression, taken from the Bible; "But
as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good..." (Genisis
50:20 KJV). And perhaps there is something to be learned from the
Prejean-Hilton incident that can be used for good.
Essentially, Hilton let the cat out of the bag. There is a very
radical minority within the homosexual community that is passionately
driven by an irrational hatred of normalcy (and Christianity in
particular) and many
of the individuals within that minority, because of this radical and
passionate hatred, gravitate toward political activism. That's why certain
individuals and organizations are often described as being part of the "radical
homosexual movement."
And these individuals and organizations control much of what is known
as the"homosexual political movement," and
while they posture and claim that they represent the greater homosexual
community, such is not necessarily, or always the case.
Many of these individuals within the "radical
homosexual movement" are
not motivated by things as supposedly noble-sounding as, "the
right to live my life as I choose" or "the
right to love whom I want to love."
Perez Hilton may very well become the poster-child for the "radical
homosexual movement." He
may have inadvertently done this country an invaluable service byshowing
all of America the level of intense and irrational hatred that is behind
the "radical
homosexual movement."
This is the intense hatred that motivated those who tried to sue the
Boy Scouts into bankruptcy for years because the Scouts would not allow
homosexual pedophiles to become Scoutmasters.
This is the intense hatred that motivates people to burn down the
homes of ministers(Rev. Chuck McIlhenny for example), desecrate the
Eucharist in Catholic Churches and march in "gay-rights
parades" where many
dress freakishly and defiantly and proudly pantomime perverse acts for all
to see.
And this
is the intense hatred that motivated many of those at the forefront of the
movement to push so-called hate crimes legislation for
years.
You may believe, like Carrie Prejean, that marriage is between a man
and a woman. No"hatred" is
necessary to hold that believe, but, IF
you hold that belief, there are people out there that have an irrational
and burning hatred toward YOU and have ever intention of using this law to
act on that hatred and
force you into submission to their worldview.
If we allow the Senate to pass HR
1913 and you meet
someone in this vocal and radical minority within the homosexual community
- someone motivated by the same hatred that motivates men like Perez
Hilton - on the street be
very afraid... and be very silent.
At the very least, don't be shocked if that person approaches you,
asks you for your opinion on so-called "same-sex
marriage," goes
home, beats his head up against the wall until it's bloody, falsely claims
to the authorities that your hateful words incited a violent act against
him and then has you arrested for a hate crime.
And if you think the prospect of being falsely accused of a hate
crime in such a manner sounds a little far-fetched... read on... it may
shock you to find out that it happens with some frequency!

Is There An Epidemic Of Hate Crimes Or Is There An
Epidemic Of Falsely Reporting Hate Crimes.
According to the FBI
only 1,460 out of 1.5 million violent crimes reported in the United States
in 2007 were REPORTEDLY based on sexual orientation – that's under
one-tenth of one percent.
That's hardly the "epidemic" that
the proponents of hate crimes legislation cite as the reason why this
federal law is so desperately needed.
So why is it necessary to get a federal hate crimes law on the books?
In 2000, a conservative clergyman sat in the Supreme Court gallery,
listening as opposing sides argued a New Jersey case challenging the Boy
Scouts’ exclusion of homosexuals.
Thinking the clergyman who was sitting nearby was a fellow liberal,
President Bill Clinton’s liaison to the homosexual community leaned over
and confided to the clergyman:
"We're not going to win this case, but that's OK.
Once we get 'hate crime' laws on the books, we're going to go after the
[Boy] Scouts and all the other bigots."
If this sick bill becomes law, American
society will see an unprecedented uprising of militant homosexuals,
demanding that anyone who speaks against their agenda be hauled off to
jail and charged with a “hate
crime.”
Actually, reporting bogus hate crimes may be as much of an "epidemic" as
hate crimes.
A Family Research Council report cites just a few examples:
“In Houston, a homosexual mugging victim was left
for dead in a traditionally 'straight' section of town. The press
initially covered it as a hate crime, but investigators soon found that
the man had been assaulted elsewhere and transported there, 'to make it
look like a hate crime.'"
“In Salt Lake City, a homosexual teacher at first thought bias offenders
had put signs in her yard to intimidate her, but some of her own
homosexual students later confessed to doing it.”
"In South Carolina, a lesbian was charged with giving false information to
a police officer for saying that she was beaten; police contend she hired
a man to beat her and then she reported it as a hate crime."
John Leo, a columnist for U.
S. News and World Report, has reported on bogus hate crimes for
years. Here are several more examples:
“Jerry Kennedy, a gay resident assistant at the
University of Georgia, reported he had been the target of nine hate crimes
over a period of three years, including three acts of arson. But during
questioning, Kennedy admitted that he had set the fires.”
"[A] lesbian student at Eastern New Mexico University said she had been
attacked after her name was included with the names of seven professors on
an antigay 'hit list' posted at a local Laundromat. Police arrested her
after a surveillance camera at the Laundromat showed her posting the
list.”
“Two weeks after the murder of Matthew Shepard, a
lesbian student at St. Cloud State University in Minnesota said two men
shouted antigay slurs at her and then slashed her face. Outraged students
raised nearly $12,000 as a reward for information about her attackers.
Then the student confessed she had made up the story and cut her own
face.”
And while we're on the subject of Matthew Shepard, here's something
that perhaps youDIDN'T know
about this young man who was supposedly killed BECAUSE he
was a homosexual... the
young man who became a household name after his death and has hate crimes
laws in many localities named in his memory, WAS NOT killed because he was
a homosexual.
It's been known for years. The media knows it. The "radical
homosexual movement"knows it. Legislators who pander to the
radical homosexual movement know it.
The two psychotic thugs who killed Shepard eventually admitted that
they had planned to rob someone BEFORE they
had even bumped into Shepard. The robbery went bad and they killed
Shepard.
This unfortunate young man was simply, and so very sadly, in the
wrong place at the wrong time; and
yet the "radical
homosexual movement" continues,
after all these years, to DISGUSTINGLY EXPLOIT HIS MEMORY.
And yet, the MONUMENTAL
IRONY here must be stated.
The most
famous "hate
crime"of
all time is nothing more than a FABRICATION that is being perpetuated in a
conspiratorial fashion by a single-minded special interest for the express
purpose of promoting a hate-driven agenda.
If we allow the Senate to pass this hateful hate crimes bill, do you
believe bogus hate crime reports will increase or decrease?

According To The Extreme Left, It's Always Okay To Hate
The Haters
You might remember the case of Crystal Dixon who was summarily
fired by the University of Toledo.
Dixon - a high-ranking administrator and an African-American - wrote
a letter to the editor objecting to the comparison of so-called "gay
rights" with the
civil rights struggles of African-Americans.
In case you're wondering, here's what Dixon wrote:
"As a Black woman... I take great umbrage at the
notion that those choosing the homosexual lifestyle are 'civil rights
victims.' Here's why. I cannot wake up tomorrow and not be a Black woman.
I am genetically and biologically a Black woman and very pleased to be so
as my Creator intended."
That exercise of her First Amendment rights got her fired!
Dixon's termination is not an isolated incident!
Allstate Insurance Company fired Matt Barber for writing an article
for a Christian publication on the medical risks of homosexual behavior
during non-working hours.
Boston public school teachers are threatened with termination if they
fail to portray so-called "same-sex
marriage" in a
positive light.
John Whitehead, writing for Dakota
Voice, spells out exactly what is wrong with this so-called hate
crimes bill.
According to Whitehead, "it
opens the door for federal law enforcement officials (whether it be agents
from the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security and so on) to crack down
on undesirable behavior wherever it occurs. The problem, which few want to
acknowledge for fear of being labeled politically incorrect, or worse
homophobic, is that in order to crack down on hateful behavior, hateful
thoughts and expression must also be targeted..."
Whitehead also says:
"On the whole, hate crime laws unnecessarily blur
the distinction between what might be constitutionally protected, albeit
deplorable, speech and criminal behavior. Eventually, this will spill over
into criminalizing any kind of speech that any official in the echelons of
government deems to be hateful or distasteful. Thus, hate crime laws...
open the door for a whole new realm of prosecutions, namely thought
crimes."
This totalitarian bill, HR
1913, must never become law.
And there is no stopping HR
1913 if the Senate
passes it. Barack Obama WILL sign
it into law.
The time to act is now. Speak now, or you may be forever forced (under
penalty of law)to hold your peace.
Use the hyperlink below to send your urgent
Blast Faxes to Barack Hussein Obama and each and every Member of the
Leadership of the United States Senate. Tell them that HR 1913 must not
pass under any circumstances. Demand that they do everything in their
power to defeat this perverse and prejudicial bill.
