… TOMORROW!
A law protecting all of our citizens against senseless hate violence is long overdue. Two years ago, radical right-wing groups and George W. Bush’s veto threat blocked the Matthew Shepard Act, which would outlaw hate crimes based on both sexual orientation and gender identity. But now the bill is back.
Tell Congress we need the Matthew Shepard Act to help ensure safety and security for ALL people.
Please go to the Human Rights Campaign Action Center and make your voice heard against hate crimes!
The Pagan Sphinx has clear and simple instructions for you to call your congress person. It seems that the hate mongers are up to no good as usual,
flooding Congress with calls, emails and sickening “fact sheets” claiming that sexual orientation means criminal acts like bestiality and necrophilia, and that this bill protects those behaviors.
So please help to combat them by calling your rep!!!
(This makes me crazy. It’s so stupid in the first place to claim that sexual orientation is bestiality and necrophilia, but even if it were, fer chrissakes, would that make it okay to beat a necrophiliac to death? Sheesh!)
Peace, out!
