I subscribe to the Traditional Values Coalition email list to keep up with the next dirty trick they are up to. The latest email is to push for more funds to kill the hate crime legislation. Can I get a FUCK YOU BASTARDS!

We need to push back and make sure that we push even harder for the hate crimes bill to be passed. What the hell does supporting a hate crimes bill have to do with being anti-Christian.


Anti-Christian ‘Hate Crimes’ on Fast Track!
Dear TVC Supporter: April 8, 2009
We know you’re concerned about many things – about the economy, about our national security, about your freedoms and much more. You are alarmed by what kind of America your children and grandchildren will grow up in.
, a financial investment today to protect religious freedom is an investment in your children and grandchildren’s future freedoms.
We have some good news and bad news for you. The bad news is that the so-called hate crimes bill has just been re-introduced in Congress and is a thinly veiled attempt at silencing Christians.

The so-called hate crimes bill is on the fast track. A vote is expected in the House Judiciary Committee in a matter of weeks. We have been told it will be the week of April 20th!

Your pastor could be prosecuted for “conspiracy to commit a hate crime” if it passes.
The so-called hate crimes bill will be used to lay the legal foundation and framework to investigate, prosecute and persecute pastors, business owners, Bible teachers, Sunday School teachers, youth leaders, Christian counselors, religious broadcasters and anyone else whose actions are based upon and reflect the truths found in the Bible. We have the proof for this statement.**
Again, Your financial investment today to protect religious freedom is an investment in your children and grandchildren’s future freedoms.
The good news is that with your support , we might be able to defeat this threat as we did last time – even with a liberal-controlled House and Senate. Leaders of the homosexual movement fear that without a strong victory on the so-called hate crimes bill they won’t have enough momentum to win other battles. Here is their plea for help.
Make no mistake—this is a fight we cannot afford to lose because the consequences would go far beyond hate crimes reform. Without a strong victory, the extreme right would have a beachhead and wind in its sails to deny us an inclusive ENDA, relationship recognition measures, and the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
Traditional Values Coalition needs your financial support , and your prayers to HELP US KILL this bill by giving us the ability to wage a relentless lobbying and educational war against passage of this legislation.

Protecting LGBT Americans from Hate and Upholding our First Amendment: No Zero Sum Game

New hate crimes legislation was introduced last Thursday night in the House that would extend critical protections to Americans based on their actual or perceived sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, or disability. Additionally, the legislation strengthens existing protections on the basis of race, color, religion, and national origin. The new, bipartisan bill, introduced by Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.) and Mark Kirk (R-Ill.), is a reintroduction of former legislation that was passed by both chambers of Congress in 2007, but ultimately failed to become law because of a veto threat from then-President Bush. This legislation, called the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act, is already supported by President Obama who has pledged to sign it into law once it reaches his desk. A Senate version of the bill, previously sponsored by Senator Kennedy, is also expected to be introduced shortly. Momentum is behind this legislation!

The original bill, called the Matthew Shepard Act, was sparked by the brutal killing of a gay, 21-year-old University of Wyoming student in 1998 that shocked the conscience of our nation at the time. The ACLU is joined by hundreds of other religious, civil rights, and law enforcement organizations in support of this legislation because of its very strong First Amendment protections, as well as the power it gives to the Justice Department to investigate crimes in which the victim was selected specifically because of their actual or perceived race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability.

According to the FBI’s most recent statistics from 2007, 7,624 hate crime offenses were reported, with nearly 17 percent of those crimes being violent crimes motivated by a person’s presumed sexual orientation. This legislation is long overdue; however, the need for it has never been greater. Urge your Members of Congress to co-sponsor and support H.R. 1913, the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act, today.

Though I haven't crazy about such legislation because I don't think ideally the law should politicize motivation over action...I don't like the concept of specific group -identity remedies as a form of legal social engineering...I can't help but be infuriated by the religious right in how they present any effort to ensure equal rights for gays as an attack on God and country.Perhaps at this point in time hate crime legislation is even if not ideal necessary.It is essential we have a right to live our lives without feeling threatened or put upon by those whose own bigotry or personal insecurities cause them to try to make examples of us,to scare and diminish us.Well,to them and to the Traditional Values Coalition I say fuck you and hope that they fail in their attempts to continue to allow discrimination under the law and foster ignorance and bigotry.If they represent "traditional values",it's about time to overturn those traditions.
 
I have sent the message with a personal appeal incorporated within.
Thanks,Metta.

Thanks Sausy


If any of you post on any of the Christian boards, I ask that you consider posting something related to the following:


Traditional Values Coalition pushes anti Christian values of deep instilled hate in an attempt to raise funds quickly. Please "love thy neighbor" and don't get caught up in their tricks.
 
This, too, is behind us north of the 49th. That's why Phelps and his clan can be arrested if they try to do here what they do back home.
 
Ah, hatred and bigotry, two of the most fundamental traditional Christian values. :roll:
 
They do that on purpose. They are trying to take terms used in the gay community and use them for their own purpose.

Kinda like what we do with fag, or black people with the "n" word huh?

I'm still amazed at all the bad things these people think will happen when gay marriage is legalized. We've done it here in Canada, so has the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Belgium and Spain and we're all still here. Our countries haven't imploded or collapsed into immoral cesspools of filth and debauchery, we got equality (almost, there's still that blood and organ donor thing) and we shut up and went back to our gay little lives and haven't bothered anybody since.

Hate crimes remain a festering and horrifying problem in the United States. Although there are laws on the books to deter hate crimes and protect their victims, significant gaps remain unfilled.

The Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act (LLEHCPA) would give the federal government jurisdiction over prosecuting hate crimes in states where the current law is inadequate. The legislation would also facilitate federal investigations and prosecutions when local authorities are unwilling or unable to achieve a just result.

Matthew Shepard killed in non-bias "robbery," Republican Congresswoman Virginia Foxx (North Carolina) says




North Carolina Republican Rep. Virginia Foxx is questioning whether the 1998 murder of Matthew Shepard, a 21-year-old gay University of Wyoming student, was a bias attack motivated by his sexual orientation.

Shepard's mother Judy was in the gallery at the time, according to a senior Democratic aide.

The socially conservative Foxx, arguing against a new Democratic hate crimes bill that includes new protections for gays and lesbians, described the description of Shepard's murder as a anti-homosexual attack a "hoax" -- and questioned whether prior bias crime legislation should have been named after him.

U.S. House passes "hate crime" bill that Bush opposed

On a vote of 249-175, the House passed and sent to the Senate a bill backed by the new Democratic White House to broaden such laws by classifying as "hate crimes" those attacks based on a victim's sexual orientation, gender identity or mental or physical disability.

The current law, enacted four decades ago, limits federal jurisdiction over hate crimes to assaults based on race, color, religion or national origin.
The bill would lift a requirement that a victim had to be attacked while engaged in a federally protected activity, like attending school, for it to be a federal hate crime.
