If two Democratic lawmakers have their way, Barack Obama’s Justice Department will submit a report for action against any Internet sites, broadcast, cable television or radio shows determined to be advocating or encouraging “violent acts.”

The Hate Crime Reporting Act of 2014 “would create an updated comprehensive report examining the role of the Internet and other telecommunications in encouraging hate crimes based on gender, race, religion, ethnicity, or sexual orientation and create recommendations to address such crimes,” stated a news release from Markey’s office.

Yup. That’s the money quote.
but only hate speech by republicans
Look at the pass they are giving that rich basketball owner, after skewering the Bundy Ranch guy for much less
Oh and the rich basketball team owner is a democrat so all democrats must think like that (well thats what they said about Bundy and Republicans)
Guess no one is supposed to mention that Hillary is old and fat and a Communist….
I expect Free Republic will be shut down for good. That will be the beginning of the end.
We need Thought Control like we need Gun Control....
And Many libs would not see the irony in the above statement...
Ah, they finally figured out how to do the fairness doctrine. On a good note, this will go no where in the House. On a bad note, might get an edict from the palace, mandating this.
Go screw yourselves...violently.
Let’s party like it’s 1861
How so?Do you expect the government to come and kill you?
One or two generations? I'd would like to live where you do. Here in the USA we have already lost everything but a pretense of freedom. Your lucky where you live.
Hate Hate
(Do two Hates make a Love?)
Problem is they have a selective definition of hate. It’s anything a White Christian or Jew says or does, or doesn’t say or doesn’t do.
Rape, murder and the knockout “game” against Whites is not defined as hate, and will continue to be actively encouraged by the government.
It’s an excuse for more spying on Americans.
This is still concerning. All the more reason to make sure that conservatives carry the day in Nov 2014.
Yes. Or arrest me, which I will not accept.
Hey, shove, we are there. It’s back to the future.
This will of course include rap music and latino broadcasts. /sarc
Yup. The Framers foresaw tyranny and a provided a way to stop it (Article V) but Orwell and Rand told us 60+ years ago of what the 0bamanation would be like. Hopefully we can enact the Liberty Amendments and gain Conservative control of the Legislature and White House to take back America.
I would have gone wid “Big Bro is watchin’ Yo”...
