'Hate Crime' Legislation Sends Grandmas
To Jail
Christian
Newswire
Friday April 20, 2007
On Tuesday at the terrace of the Cannon House Office Building, Faith2Action
began a national television campaign to fight so- called "hate crimes"
(H.R. 1592)-legislation which has already sent grandmas to jail at the
state level for the "crime" of sharing the Gospel on a Philadelphia
public sidewalk. The announcement came as part of a press conference led
by the Traditional Values Coalition, a linking partner of Faith2Action.
"This is the most dangerous bill in America," declares Faith2Action
President, Janet Folger, host of a live, daily, nationally syndicated
radio program, and writer of a weekly column for WorldNetDaily.
On Tuesday, the U.S. House began hearings on the bill that would expand
the definition of hate crimes to include "thought crimes" against
the homosexual agenda. "HR1592 is about hate - hating free speech,
hating equal justice, and hating grandma", said Folger.
Faith2Action began running ads Tuesday, April 17th, featuring Philadelphia
grandmothers who were thrown in jail for simply sharing their faith. They
were accused of violating Pennsylvania's "hate crimes" law and
faced the possibility of 47 years in prison. (The ads can also be seen
on the internet at http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=7xet85bab.0.49giz5bab.tuqepibab.1558&t
s=S0243&p=http://www.stophatecrimesnow.com/
www.StopHateCrimesNow.com) They are scheduled to run on FOX news nationally
and in the D.C. Market.
"We must stop it," Folger states, "before they send your
grandma, your pastor, or you to jail for sharing your faith or speaking
the truth about an agenda that seeks to silence us." Folger's recent
article "Conyers' 'Hate Grandma' bill introduced in House" can
be found at: http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp? ARTICLE_ID=54879.
Janet Folger is available for interviews this week and can be reached
through Wanda Sanchez at 209.534.0335.
