Department of Justice Will Go After Anti-Muslim Hate Speech
ABC ^ | 04 December 2015 | Meridith McGraw

U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch pledged that the Department of Justice will go after hate speech that might incite violence against the Muslim community, she told a crowd of Muslim-Americans and supporters Thursday night.

“Obviously this is a country that is based on free speech,” Lynch told the audience at the Muslim Advocates dinner in Arlington, VA. “But when that edges towards violence…we will take action.”

Since 9/11, Lynch says that the Department of Justice has investigated more than 11,000 acts of anti-Muslim rhetoric, which have led to 45 prosecutions. “I think sadly, that number is going to rise,” said Lynch.

"But Lynch says that language generates fear."

Bombs and bullets apparently don't generate fear ... but language does. I'll tell you what, I'd much rather my body be hit by a barrage of language rather than bullets, but that's just me ... I'm funny that way.

Muslim terrorists gunning down unarmed Americans - okay. Islamaphobia - not okay. Any questions?

“Sticks and stones...” or “bullets and bombs” will break my bones, etc. That’s what she should focus on.

Lynch Law takes on an entirely new meaning, but the effect is almost identical.

Unjust persecution, and “No mercy” or even any appeal shall be possible.

The “law” part has pretty much become an abstraction. It used to be which side had the loudest bullhorns, now it is rapidly reaching the point of which has the most firepower and discipline in confrontations.

Civil War II may get here a lot sooner than anyone now imagines.

Stock up your home armory and get in target practice while you are able, folks.

Will she try to prosecute dead Presidents?

John Quincy Adams on Islam

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).

Arrest Lynch for imposing Sharia Law on the American people. If not that, she’s making a terrorist threat isn’t she? After all, to prosecute and arrest someone is a DEED not merely WORDS right Lynch?

Congress should drag her butt in to testify, and ask her precisely what ‘action’ she plans on taking.

I suppose she’s referring to Trump but I can’t see her prosecuting Trump. Maybe it’s just another one of Obamas red lines.
