KILL GEORGIA'S HATE BILL
By Rev. Ted Pike
3 Jan 08
In 2004 the Georgia Supreme Court declared Georgia's ADL-inspired hate crimes
bill unconstitutional. It was too vague, gave special federal protection to
too many groups, and thus could not be enforced.
Now ADL and pro-homosexual groups are lobbying hard to reinstitute
it, restoring special protection and rights to homosexuals, transvestites,
and transgenders. A Georgia Senate study committee must decide before
January 9 whether to attempt to pass the bill. If you are a resident
of Georgia, it's time to protest loudly. Call your state senator andr
representatives TODAY.
Tell them: "Please do not reinstate Georgia's hate crimes law.
Existing law adequately punishes all forms of crime. Adding bias motivation
to the definition of a crime only complicates law enforcement."
With ADL frustrated in passing their federal hate law, they will
turn to their 45 state hate laws to persecute evangelical Christians
in the years ahead. It was ADL's Pennsylvania hate law that ADL used
to arrest the "Philly 11" Christians in 2004. Thus, it is
vital that state hate laws be declared unconstitutional or repealed
and that abandonment of the Georgia hate law stands out as an example
and precedent for other states.
Rev. Ted Pike is director of the National Prayer Network, a Christian/conservative
watchdog organization.
