Hate Crime Protection for Pedophiles but No Protection for Military
Stop the ACLU ^ | 5 May 09 | John Stephenson

Democrats want pedophiles to be a protected class under "hate crimes"!

Details:

The leader of a pro-family organization says families across the nation need to contact their U.S. senators now to try to derail a legislative plan that already has passed the U.S. House and is being awaited by President Obama – after a Democrat confirmed it would protect "all 547 forms of sexual deviancy or 'paraphilias' listed by the American Psychiatric Association."

WND columnist Janet Porter, who also heads the Faith2Action Christian ministry, today cited S. 909, dubbed the "Pedophile Protection Act," as an extreme danger to America.

As H.R. 1913, the House version of the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act bill, the plan was adopted on a 249-175 vote, but not before several amendments were proposed by Republicans trying to mitigate the impact of the law.

Democratic Sens. Edward Kennedy and Patrick Leahy immediately introduced a matching plan in the U.S. Senate, and activists say a vote in committee could come as early as tomorrow.

The proposal, also called the Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Prevention Act after a Wyoming homosexual who was killed in a horrific robbery and beating in 1998, creates a special class for homosexuals and others with alternative sexual lifestyles and provides them protections against so-called "hate."

..Rep. Louis Gohmert, R-Texas, then explained what it means, Porter wrote.

There are only 242 crimes where there is actually some – truly – an assault, and we just rejected an amendment to including pedophilia from being a part of this protected class. Do you realize what that means?

If a mother hears that their child has been raped and she slaps the assailant with her purse, she is now gone after as a hate criminal...

Here’s an idea for the Dems, let all the child molesters live next door to them and their children. See how they like it. Perhaps they can invite them over to spend some time with their kids

Sometimes I shake my head that I live in a country where an organization like NAMBLA is allowed to roam free.

Disgusting. Just goes to show how asinine this whole “Hate Crimes” bill is.

This goes far beyond anything the Demrats have attempted previously. The legislation they are proposing is almost disgusting beyond description. From what I hear, even Pastors can be arrested for simply speaking out about the homosexual lifestyle or any of hundreds of sexual perversions on the protected list. Everyone should be looking very closely at any politician who votes yes on this travesty.

So hate speech is speaking out against perversions like homosexuality and child molesters, but not attacking the very people that protect your rights.

Give them some credit, they did find something they are horrified by recently ... Carrie Prejean might have posed topless once! GASP!

For many years, I’d predicted the pedophiles would directly follow the “gays” in terms of their demands for rights. Looks like now they’re starting to get them.
