THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THOUGHT CRIMES!!!

YOU HAVE FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND FREEDOM OF RELIGION.

HATE CRIMES ONLY APPLY IF YOU COMMIT A CRIMINAL ACT.

And the bit about law enforcement officers. A large chunk of hate crimes against gays are in fact committed by law enforcement officers!!!

A KKK member can say all the racist stuff he wants EVEN though there is hate crime legislation for African Americans.

This is ridiculous

Do you all work with ACLJ in anyway?
(American Center for Law and Justice?)
They are lawyers that protect christian rights based on constitutional laws.
They fight alot against abortion and defending our freedom of speech. But will defend anyone who’s rights as a christian are being taken away. I was just wondering if you all partnered up on things like these.

thank you for making us aware of these legislations that are often times passed unnoticed by the media or rather “over looked”.
We don’t watch the news very often because we have small children and sometimes even “news” topics can be defiling to them and creat curiosity for things they are to young to understand. So to protect them we don’t often see what’s happening.
So thank you for calling us to make us aware of the threat against our freedoms as christians who happen to live in america.
