The Liberal Democrats like to throw around the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment a lot, while misunderstanding the intention of the clause. Nonetheless, despite their constant use of it, apparently, it only applies when it benefits them. However, they conveniently don't recognize equal protection when it comes to religious speech, or actions that may not support their Liberal Agenda for America.
A great example of this insane version of New Speak, is U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder's testimony before a Senate Judiciary Committee, recently. When asked about the application of the Hate Crimes Law to a Christian Minister that spoke out about the "sins" of homosexuality, he said that a homosexual activist who is attacked following a Christian minister's sermon about homosexuality would be protected by the proposed new federal law, but a minister attacked by a homosexual wouldn't be.
I recently wrote that if I was attacked by a group of gays, I would have no standing regarding the Hate Crimes bill, and apparently I was correct.
Basically, what Eric Holder is saying is that the beliefs of a homosexual outweigh the beliefs of a Christian (an opinion based on Biblical text which served as part of the foundation of this nation's birth).
The explanation is that gays have a history of being targeted for violence. Centuries of persecution against Christians, I suppose, means nothing in the decisions of who will receive preferential treatment of the law.
Isn't that what Hate Crimes legislation does? It gives preferential treatment to homosexuals over Christians. In schools they want no mention of God, but the gay lifestyle is now being taught as a normal behavior. There is argument over calling Christmas by its real name, and to eliminate the Christian influence, Christmas Vacation is being called Winter Break. However, A Day Of Silence at the schools to celebrate homosexuality is perfectly acceptable. And now, homosexuals can spout their beliefs all they want, and even use physical force to get their point across, but under Hate Crimes legislation it is entirely possible for a Christian to be jailed for daring to even state their opinion - that is if a gay is assaulted, and the courts decide it was the result of what some Christian said, the Christian is toast.
Thought crimes, too, since the legislation determines that the government is able to tell what somebody's motives are.
That's insane.
Minorities and Gays are covered in the Hate Crimes Bill, but if you are a White Christian, they can beat the living crap out of you, and aside from an assault charge, it doesn't matter if you were beaten to a pulp for being White, or a Christian. The Hate Crimes legislation does not apply to you.
So much for the Liberal cry for Equal Protection.
Yet another piece of proof that Liberalism is filled with hate, and double standards. The lefties truly are a mean and nasty crowd of hateful people.
