Federal Hate Crime for Protecting A Child?

When silence is stronger than words.  

Hate Bill proponents, (H.R. 1913; Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009), refuse to define the terms “Gender, Sexual Orientation, and Gender Identity. “  As a result,  deviant sexual activity (behavior), to include 547 different Paraphilias as identified by the American Psychological Association will also be protected.  Some of which are:

• Incest -sex with one’s offspring, a crime
• Necrophilia -sexual relations with a corpse, also a crime
• Pedophilia -sex with an underage child, another crime
• Zoophilia -bestiality, a crime in numerous states
• Voyeurism- a criminal offense in most states
• Fronteurism-which involves a man approaching an unknown woman and rubbing up against her buttocks
• Coprophilia-sexual arousal from feces
• Urophilia-sexual arousal from urine

While the wording of the legislation may allude to a bill that supports keeping the peace, reducing hate crimes and giving equality to anyone who may be a target of a hate crime, true to political arena criticism, truth, justice, honesty and true social welfare is at the mercy of  political agendas, political rhetoric, and individual integrity. 

Keeping the underlying truth marred through filters and smokescreens, provide legislators with an underhanded approach to blanketed lawmaking in “the name of the people.”  This needs to be a focused concern with parents, educators  and all those who want to protect the lives and preserve the innocence of youth.   

Protecting the wellbeing of children from pedophilia and sexual crimes like those we continue to see in the media (Sunday School Teacher, Melissa Huckaby charged with eight-year-old, Sandra Cantu’s murder),  is not about sexual orientation, color, nationality, religion or race.  It is about seeing danger, and keeping danger away from those it targets.  It is also by being clear about what this bill proposes, exposes and defends.

To have U.S. Representative Alcee Hastings say “Mr. Speaker, this bill addresses our resolve to end violence based on prejudice, and to guarantee that all Americans, regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or disability–or all of these philias and fetishes and isms that were put forward–need not live in fear because of who they are,” I belive is a grave and dangerously irresponsible and  undermining   social welfare shortcoming on his part.  http://tinyurl.com/alceehastingsHR1913

Urging the passage of the bill, saying it would help end violence based on prejudice and hate, would not encourage people to report hate crimes or reduce gun violence.   Rather it would ensure that “all of these -philias and fetishes and -isms that were put forward, will live on and be protected and supported in an era where ill and evil perpetrated by conscientious adults, will continue raping the livelihoods of children and youth in America.

American citizens cannot allow themselves to be fooled by blanketed laws that appear to be rightful in standing for equality and rights for all, while it undermines the safety and moral standards of those who repect humanity and moral decency, this includes heterosexuals, gays, blacks, whites, all nationalities, religions, philosophies and creeds. 

Morality, integrity, responsibility and accountability is the foundation of true social welfare reform and collective evolution.  Irrespective of who we are and what group or political agenda we represent, one idea is sure; we must protect the lives of our children and do so by being vigilant and proactive in the face of danger, no matter the race, color, or sexual orientation.
