Does Canada have any retired actors who are dissillusioned with liberalism, articulate, likeable, anti-terrorist, and willing to call for change in public dialogue?
Even social conservatives in the Liberal Party (yes, there are a few) have been silenced by the demand to be politically correct on social issues in Canada.
Homosexual Agenda Ping - A long read, managed to choke some of it down and will try to swallow the rest.
Basically, Hate Crimes morph into Hate Speech, and that's only a hop, skip and a jump to Hate Thought.
Gulag, anyone? Or maybe just electroshock therapy, or perhaps Thorazine.
Why would such laws have any justification? Because they know they can't indoctrinate everyone. Must criminalize independent thinkers.
let me *and* scripter know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.
Looks like will have to start 'regime change' in Canada soon, there being taken over by tyrants.
The Lavender Mafia.
I seem to recall just a little bit of civil disobedience by the Cubans in Florida sent the fairy Democratic lawyers to flight when they came to Miami to feather the vote recount. Conservatives need to act up now and then. The homosexuals and socialists seem to have a lock on intimidation by mob tactics.
"...but my concerns come because no one will tell us what the words "sexual orientation" mean."
Feminist linguistic activists (those who eventually have a say as to what will be in your dictionaries) also started abusing the word, "gender" (which refers to Latin words and plants) to replace the word, "sex." ...that, so they could spread the false word that there are five sexes instead of only two.
Letter to the Editors, Washington Times, circa fall, 1998:
In the waning hours of the 105th Congress, quiet efforts to pass controversial legislation are under way.
The Hate Crimes Prevention Act... cites violence based on sexual orientation as a Hate Crime.
Hate Crimes have commonly been racially motivated. Only in Canada has sexual orientation been included in anti-hate and human rights legislation. The Canadian law does not focus exclusively on physical violence-- it includes all forms of communication as well.
...As a Canadian living in the United States, I fear for your freedom, mainly because you take it for granted.
If my words were published in a Canadian newspaper... I would be charged with inciting hate under the criminal code.
Freedom of speech no longer exists in Canada-- I could not state that AIDS is largely found within the homosexual community, nor quote statistics to back up my assertion.
My opinion would make me a criminal. Since "tolerance" has been redefined... only Political Correctness is tolerated...
The Hate Crimes Prevention Act is a signifigant foot in the door for homosexual rights lobbyists-- it validates the entire... movement as an endangered group in need of special legislative protection.
Violence against any person is already illegal, no matter what the motive.
I find it offensive that violence is noteworthy only when the victim ( is)... a member of some political action group.
