Action Alert: National, Help stop Hate Crimes legislation

Ed Devine TX Dist 5 Coordinator has sent you a message on Patriotic Resistance

Urgent! Call your Senate members and ask that they oppose the Matthew Shepherd Hate Crimes Legislation Bill S. 909.

you can reach your Senate member by calling the Senate Switchboard at: (202) 224-3121

Ask For: Your Senator or their Legislative Director

You can use the following talking points to bolster your opposition to this egregious special interest hate crimes legislation:

Talking Points:

1) Laws already exist in all 50 states to punish violent crime, making the Matthew Shepherd Hate Crimes bill (S.909) unnecessary, unfair, indefinable, un-American and constitutionally suspect. S.909 is not designed to aid in fighting crime. The reality is that the purpose of this bill is to silence those who speak out against homosexuality.

2) I am opposed to S. 909 – the “Hate Crimes” bill. One reason for my opposition is that Congress has refused to define what is meant by sexual orientation in S.909. By doing so, this means that the 30 different sexual orientations – including pedophilia – will be federally protected classes.

3) Hate Crimes legislation is one more step in the campaign to legitimize homosexuality in our culture by treating it as a protected class along with race, gender and religion.

4) Again, I ask you to oppose the “Hate Crimes” bill. In order to push it on the American people, it is likely that the bill will be introduced as an amendment to the Defense Authorization Bill.

5) If Hate Crimes legislation passes, pastors could be prosecuted under the federal inducement statute for preaching the biblical view of homosexuality. Similar laws have been used to prosecute religious speech in the U.S. at the state level and abroad.

Please make this call. It’s vital that we stop this legislation in it’s tracks.
