Although defeated in conference between the House and Senate on Oct. 8, the “Big Brother” federal “anti-hate” bill, the “Local Law Enforcement Enhancement Act,” will easily become law when it is re-introduced by the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith and the gay lobby this spring.
In a procedural, non-binding vote on Sept. 28, the House of Representatives voted 213 to 186 in favor of passage. This concurs with the Senate vote of 65 to 33 in its favor on April 15. This means that the ADL, originator of this legislation, can boldly re-introduce it through their lackeys, Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass) and Senator Gordon Smith (R-OR), and it will surely pass. The overwhelming majority of Republican and Democratic members of Congress have pledged to pass it.
Although the ADL was successful, during the 1990’s, in persuading 48 states to adopt some version of its “Model Anti-hate Bill,” the ADL is intent on the real prize: establishment of a vast federal “anti-hate” bureaucracy forcing the states to adhere to a federal anti-hate agenda. “The Local Law Enforcement Enhancement Act” would demolish all restrictions against federal intrusion into states enforcement of civil rights law. In fact, if the federal government did not like the verdict of a hate crimes trial on the local level, the federal bill gives the government the right to intervene and, presumably, retry the case to its satisfaction.
Even more ominous, the federal hate bill will powerfully enforce upon the states the practical federal definition that “hate equals bias against homosexuality.” Under the ADL’s pet legislation, the “Hate Crimes Statistics Act of 1990,” the ADL made a place for itself as the definer of what hate is, and the gatherer of statistics on “hate crimes” for the federal government. With additional encouragement by Attorney General Janet “Butch” Reno, the ADL, through its police training manuals, ‘anti-hate" videos, and hate crimes data collection system, has now become law enforcement’s teacher on what are “hate” and “hate crimes.” If the Local Law Enforcement Enhancement Act" is passed this spring, the ADL will be in even greater control, guiding enforcement of its agenda through a huge, Orwellian, federal anti-hate bureaucracy.
Because the ADL’s police educational program emphasizes that “hate equals bias against homosexuality,” the federal hate bill automatically targets evangelical Christians. No book is so full of bias against homosexuality as the Bible, calling homosexuality an “abomination.”
Thus, Bible-believing Christians, automatically become violators of the ADL/federal definition of “hate,” becoming potential “hate criminals.” Already, we see Christians in Philadelphia, for nothing more than preaching of the gospel, arrested and indicted for violation of Pennsylvania’s ADL hate law. Passage of the ADL’s federal hate law bill will exponentially increase the power of government “thought crimes” police to indict Christians as “thought criminals” nationwide.
It is vital NOW that you call the President’s comment line at 202-456-1111 and members of Congress toll free at 1-800-TEXLASO and give them the following message:
For merely preaching the gospel, four Christians are now indicted under Pennsylvania’s “anti-hate” law. Don’t approve the federal hate bill when it is introduced this spring!
