ADL's New 'Hate Bill' The Death Knell For Talk Radio

Rev. Ted Pike | June 30, 2005

The Anti-Defamation League's new, tougher hate bill, "The Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2005," HR 2662, if passed, will very soon end FREE SPEECH and FREE SPEECH TALK RADIO. The ADL, through similar legislation, has already ended free speech in Canada. It wants to do the same in America.

Here's a summary of how this bill would make law.

HR 2662 intends to enforce nation-wide the working ADL/federal definition that 'hate' equals bias against federally-protected groups. Particularly against:

Homosexuals. Any specific public criticism of homosexuals will eventually be considered a hate crime, just as it already has been for eleven Christians under the ADL's Pennsylvania hate crime law on Oct. 10, 2004.

Transvestites. Female impersonators, and persons with confused or altered gender, will gain special federal protection against bias-motivated threat. This includes transvestites who are threatened for sexist reasons by males who perceive them as really being women. Such men will be prosecuted as 'hate criminals' against women, even though the 'woman' they were biased against was actually a man!

Women. Any woman who claims, "The last time I had sex with him, he used a sexist word against me. He raped me!" can press charges for a 'hate crime' of rape. Punishment will be triple the usual penalty - about 30 years in prison.

Jews. B'nai B'rith, a Jewish religious organization, invented 'hate laws' to make public criticism of homosexuality a 'hate crime.' Yet this is only a step toward B'nai B'rith's REAL objective: making public criticism of Jews, matters Jewish, and the State of Israel, a hate crime.

We have to do something and stop letting these bills pass from right under our noses. America is losing it's freedom right in front of all of us. I don't believe this bill has passed yet, but it would only take one hate crime exposed by the National Media to pass. So don't be surprised if it does.

I couldn't find anything about curbing free speech, just about committing crimes based on prejudice. But, I still don't agree with hate crime laws, because bodily harm or murder is inexcusable (barring extenuating circumstances, such as self-defense) no matter the person's identity.

Here is a link to the bill in question

I have read it and I don't see where this bill could be interupted to say what the article above is alleging. All I see is authorizing states access to federal money to investigate and prosecute hate crimes. Also anywhere hate crime is defined you will find the line


Whoever, whether or not acting under color of law, willfully causes bodily injury to any person or, through the use of fire, a firearm, or an explosive or incendiary device, attempts to cause bodily injury to any person, because of the actual or perceived race, color, religion, or national origin of any person


I just don't see the correlation the article is attempting to make.

(8) Channels, facilities, and instrumentalities of interstate commerce are used to facilitate the commission of such violence.

That could be what's refered to in the article I mentioned above. However, you could be correct in that there may have to be a violent crime involved for the person who made the speech to be liable. Guess it could of been the writer of the article making a big deal over nothing. If so I apologize for this whole topic.

Mods feel free to delete as I think it could just add confusion to the many already confused on this board.
