Free Speech
May 17, 2009
With hate crime legislation on the front burner and the president pushing congress to have it ready for him to sign by Memorial Day, we need to exercise our free speech and speak out to our elected representatives how we feel that such a law would impact our lives and the lives of all Americans.
We may not always say things that are pleasing to the ears of everyone, but we do have the right of free speech granted by our Constitution. We must not be quick to give up this right. If we lose this "right," it won't be long before they are taking away others, and eventually, our Constitution will be a worthless piece of paper. Our forefathers fought and died to give us the liberties that we enjoy. Can we stand idly by and let it all slip away?
It seems that the only people who are attacked for speaking out are Christians, the very people who are instructed by their savior to "go and preach the Gospel to all nations." Our president of "change" is against Christianity. He doesn't recognize our National Day of Prayer, but recognizes Muslim's rights to pray.
If, in fact, the so call "Hate-Crimes" bill passes, it will have more far reaching consequences than anyone imagines and will back-fire to the shutting-down of the free speech of those who hate Christians.
Why don't we grow-up and act like adults instead of little children who cry and moan about everything. Laws already exist that allow for the prosecution of those who try to take out their own vengeance upon others. We don't need "Hate Crimes Legislation," nor any other legislation that is aimed at just one group of people, especially Christians who are just trying to help others to have a happy life and eternal life in addition.
