Do we still have freedom of religion, speech, assembly? Or no?From the bill:
SEC. 10. RULE OF CONSTRUCTION. Nothing in this Act, or the amendments made by this Act, shall be construed to prohibit any expressive conduct protected from legal prohibition by, or any activities protected by the free speech or free exercise clauses of, the First Amendment to the Constitution.

NOW comes the back lash of the beloved 501c3 tax exempt status, that all the churches have bought in to.

Pastors will be included with the rest of us conservatives as potential terrorists.

You clearly haven’t read the text of the proposed bill, just as very few people here have. It’s just a taxpayer money-suck to give federal assistance to local investigations of hate crimes. Nothing in this bill will chill religious freedom of speech. Read first, then comment.

With solid majorities in both houses of Congress, this must be what the people want. Until we can get these average voters to understand the ramifications of what they’re doing when they pull the lever for the RATS, this is not going to stop.

Would Muslims be guilty, too, or only followers of Christ? My bet is it would most likely be “selective” prosecution of this “crime”.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Do you think we’ll see the first trial of this involving muslims?

So, the same will apply to any anti-gay, anti-feminist rhetoric espoused by imams in mosques.
No??

Members of churches with conservative, bible preaching pastors, will have to protect their own. Passage of this law might very well outlaw the koran in the US, due to the call to kill Jews... You know what they say about silver linings and dark clouds...

Please remember that people said the same thing about McCain/Feingold CFR, and that it would never stand after the SCOTUS got through with it...

It's just smoke and mirrors. I wonder how they expect us to "construe" it.
