I don't know why so many are opposed to this legislation.
Unless they had plans to go shoot all those folks at the gay bar next week and now their plans are foiled.

SEC. 7. SEVERABILITY.

SEC. 8. 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 Constitution.

Freedom of speech is still a Constitutional right and protected by the First Amendment. This legislation is just making it a hate crime to beat someone up or kill them or otherwise cause them physical harm cuz of their race, religion, gender or sexual orientation. This bill specifies *bodily* harm making it (if I understand it correctly at least..Baron..correct me?) impossible for anyone to use this legislation for any real or perceived *emotional or mental* harm.

Re: Please Get Involved.
I must go now.
But this also might help one to understand where this is leading.

Re: Please Get Involved.
I will say....you're right Scott. If you have a problem with legislation being passed, DO SOMETHING. This is America and the system still works..mostly. lol Find out who voted for this, don't vote for them. Talk to people, get involved in local and state politics. It's not the majority of the American people who have a say in these things, it's the majority of the *politically active* American people who have a say.

Re: Please Get Involved.
Scott,
How does one make a difference? The only thing that can change anything is faith and repentance. The GOP is of no value that has been proved. Third parties get a tiny tiny vote. The Dems are pushing hard to destroy any righteousness that might be left.
Two options. A violent revolution to overthrow them is the one in the natural. People are not going to do that. At least not very many.
Last hope. YAH.
Will he help a nation who is head over heels in love with fornication and adultery? Who praises Sodomites from the rising of the sun to the going down of the same? Whose Churches teach perfection is not of Jesus and to sin is normal?
It dont look good.
To those who have ears to hear. Make haste to dwell in the secret place. Love Jesus with all your heart, soul, mind and strength. Love your neighbor as yourself and resist sin unto the death.
You will inherit the Kingdom of Light. The Father of Lights will give you deep manifestations of his love and joy. You will find contentment there.

Re: Please Get Involved.
I do think we should get involved the best we can in the political process,and let our voice be hard.
Yes in the natural it doesn't look very good and the church has experienced tribualtion from it's inception,and we might be persecuted but not forsaken.

Thanks Mike, good post.
I believe it was Jesus who said "My kingdom is not of THIS world"
Kingdoms rise and fall but the church stands triumphant.
