What Little we get They are Already Trying to take Away!
Isn't it amazing the way these religious right freaks can rationalize their UN GOD LIKE sermons that encourage hate against Gays and Lesbians. According to their preaching, we (the LGBT population) are all sinners that don't deserve protection rights under the constitution and we are all going to hell! Well then, guess what? I'll see all these guys there!
Three Michigan pastors claim a new hate crime law infringes on their First Amendment rights and should be declared unconstitutional.
They filed a lawsuit today to try to strike down a portion of the federal law, which was signed last fall.
The law expands federal hate crimes to those committed against people because of sexual orientation, gender identity or disability. The pastors believe they could be targeted for their sermons against gay lifestyles.
But supporters of the law say it’s aimed at acts of violence, not speech by clergy.
The pastors are Jim Combs of Waterford, Rene Ouellette of Bridgeport and Levon Yuille of Ypsilanti. A fourth plaintiff is Gary Glenn, head of the American Family Association of Michigan.
The lawsuit is in federal court in Bay City.
