If you prefer,
here is a form letter you may email, fax or mail to
the members of Congress.
Dear Senator / Representative ________________:
Please do NOT vote for the federal hate crimes bill,
S. 909. On Oct. 8, 2004, 11
Christians were arrested and jailed for 21 hours under Pennsylvania's
anti-hate law. They had been peacefully preaching at a "Gay
Pride" parade.
While "Anti-Hate" legislation gives the
impression of protecting the civil rights of minorities from bias-motivated
violence or intimidation, it actually leads to loss of free speech.
Under Canada's anti-hate law, it is now illegal
to criticize homosexual behavior over the airwaves, in print, or
in public. The consequences: large fines and imprisonment.
The FBI's annual "Uniform Crime Report" consistently
shows that so-called "hate crimes" constitute only about
1/15th of 1% of all crime in America. Of this 1/15th of 1%, most
have not been adjudicated but are called "crime" because
of the conclusions of investigating police. Actually, most are "suspected
bias crimes incidents," not proven crimes.
Such infinitesimal numbers of proven hate crimes
does not justify unprecedented, massive intrusion of the federal
government into local law enforcement.
Respectfully-
