Help crush the "Pedophile Protection Act" - Hundreds of thousands of letters flood U.S. Senate
WND
Close to half a million letters have been dispatched to the U.S. Capitol telling senators the so-called "hate crimes" bill now pending before committee is the wrong way for the country to move.
WND first reported on what has become widely known as the "Pedophile Protection Act" recently, raising nationwide alarm that has already generated more than 450,000 individual letters of protest to members of the U.S. Senate.
A hearing on the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act, already approved by the U.S. House as H.R. 1913 and pending in the Senate as S. 909, is expected soon in the Senate Judiciary Committee. It's been described by opponents as the "Pedophile Protection Act" because majority Democrats in the House refused to approve an amendment specifying that pedophiles would not be protected under the proposal that provides special protections for homosexuals.

Essentially the plan would impose additional federal criminal penalties on people who either attack those in the specially protected sexual classes, say something that offends them or are accused of saying something that offends.
Under a comparable law in Sweden, a minister was sentenced to 30 days in jail for preaching from Leviticus. Similar state laws have resulted in similar results. In Philadelphia several years ago, a 73-year-old grandmother was reported to have been jailed for trying to share Christian tracts with people at a homosexual festival.
President Obama, supported strongly during his campaign by homosexual advocates, appears ready to respond to their desires.
"I urge members on both sides of the aisle to act on this important civil rights issue by passing this legislation to protect all of our citizens from violent acts of intolerance," he said.
Please help us continue the barrage of overnight letters to the U.S. Senate. WND has devised a plan to FedEx copies of the following letter to every U.S. senator on your behalf for only $10.95:

The Honorable ___________ [Room #] [Name] Senate Office Building United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 Dear Senator: I am writing to urge you to do all in your power to oppose passage of § 909, also known as "The Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act." Passage of this bill by the U.S. Senate would be reckless and irresponsible not only because of the "chilling effect" it would have on First Amendment-guaranteed rights to free speech, but also because it would provide, for the first time ever, special legal protections for pedophiles and other sexual offenders. This bill would more appropriately be called "The Pedophile Protection Act." The evidence for this extraordinary statement comes directly from debate in the House, when a simple amendment to exempt pedophiles from the protections offered by the bill were rejected. I write to warn you that those who support it, or allow it to become the law of the land without a fight, will be held accountable at election time. If there was ever a time for the Senate to stand and fight with a filibuster, that time is now. We are calling for members of the Senate, Republicans and Democrats alike, to stop § 909. Stop "The Pedophile Protection Act" dead in its tracks – now. Please respond to me in writing as to whether you intend to oppose this dangerous bill – including by filibuster if necessary. Sincerely,
Bellringer Patrick Your address |
