Anti "Hate" laws
As this article indicates so-called anti hate laws now exist in a number of countries. These laws are introduced by the real haters and bigots and it is of course a most obnoxious terminology particularly when it comes to a number of matters. For instance attempting to preserve the ethnic identity of a country can only be a most desirable aspiration and can in no way be associated with hate it is more applicable to those politicians and their lackeys who are destroying the well being of a country.
The following applies mainly to USA but also has some meaning in Australia.
As I have had very little response to my request asking for the locality of those on my mailing list I am sending this to all.
I would appreciate knowing at least which country you are in please.
ANTI-HATE LAWS WILL MAKE YOU A CRIMINAL.
Ominous federal law will soon end free speech in America! by Rev. Ted Pike
In 2004, eleven Christians were arrested and jailed in Philadelphia for the "hate crime" of peaceful evangelism at a gay pride parade. For the full story, visit www.truthtellers.org
Hate Laws End Free Speech.
§ A Christian was fined $6,000 for printing three Bible verses against homosexuality in the newspaper. The paper was fined $6,000 for accepting his ad.
§ A Christian printer was fined $5,000 for refusing to print stationery for homosexual activists. He was bankrupted after spending $175,000 contesting the charge.
§ A Christian was fined $35,000 on two counts of distributing "hate literature," i.e, tracts critical of homosexuality.
§ A church school was forced to hire a known homosexual. Punishment for refusal? Prison for administrators.
§ A pastor was told by police it's a "hate crime" to hand out gospel tracts, punishable by prison.
In Britain
§ Two political activists were indicted, facing seven years in prison, for describing Islam as a "wicked faith."
§ A filmmaker was threatened with arrest for using the term "homosexual" rather than "gay."
In Australia,
§ Two Christians were indicted for criticizing Islam.
§ A pastor was indicted for criticizing Zionism.
In Sweden,
§ A pastor was indicted, facing prison, for reading from the pulpit Scriptures critical of homosexuality.
In Holland,
§ It's now a "hate crime" to criticize fornicators and adulterers.
In Germany,
§ A Catholic priest faces imprisonment for the "hate crime" of publicly criticizing abortionists.
§ The USA doesn't yet have a federal hate law. Protest from freedom-loving patriots killed this bill three times in the last two years.
But the threat looms again.
We must act now to save freedom.
With Americans behind them, Republicans in Congress repeatedly defeated the federal hate bill in the past 8 years. Yet Democrats, who always vote for the hate bill, now control Congress. Their strong numbers mean the bill will pass... unless there's an upheaval of protest. If enough concerned Americans call Congress, ADL may lose nerve and wait another year.
In Canada, Australia, and most of Europe, it's now a "hate crime" to publicly criticize protected groups including homosexuals, Muslims, and Jews.
Truth is not allowed -
as evidence in hate crimes trials. All that matters are the delicate feelings of members of federally protected groups. A homosexual can claim emotional damage from hearing Scripture that describes his lifestyle as an abomination. He can press charges against the pastor or broadcaster who merely reads the Bible in public. The "hater" can be fined thousands of dollars and even imprisoned!
Think this can't happen in America? Think again.
The Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith, architect of "anti-hate" laws worldwide, will reintroduce its federal hate bill this winter. ADL says the purpose of the "Hate Crimes Prevention Act" is to end violent physical hate crimes.
That's just what ADL told lawmakers in Canada, Britain, Sweden, etc. Soon after ADL's hate bill was passed, it broadened through legal precedents to outlaw "verbal violence" against protected groups.
Laws passed to end violent hate crimes soon criminalized free speech.
The problem is hate laws' twisted definition of hate. ADL, which presently administers the US government's hate crimes enforcement program, says "hate" equals bias against federally protected groups, particularly homosexuals.
What document is most biased against homosexuality? The Holy Bible.
All lovers of free speech are threatened, but Bible-believing Christians are the ultimate target of ADL's distorted definitions of hate and hate crimes.
EPIDEMIC OF HATE?
Supporters of "anti-hate" legislation claim there's an epidemic of hate in America.
Yet the FBI's 2005 Uniform Crime Report shows alleged hate crimes comprise a tiny
1/15 of 1% of all crime in America. This is hardly a crisis requiring a vast federal thought crimes bureaucracy with unlimited power to invade state law enforcement.
Also, at least 95% of so-called hate crimes reported to the FBI have never been tried in court. Most are nothing but police opinions about verbal "intimidation," name calling, and petty assault and vandalism.
