Pray so Christians will not be silenced. Your free speech rights as believers ar

When I hear about "hate speech" being criminalized, I can't help but think of all the times I've heard the term applied by right-wingers to GLBT or atheist rights advocacy.

I look at it this way - for any given law or governmental power, I try to imagine the consequences of giving it not just to the current administration, but to every administration after that.

Unless we want to start outlawing religions and political parties, what's to stop these disagreeables from rolling back into power at some point and bludgeoning us with the anti-hate speech laws we supported?

SOCIALISM and COMMUNISIM at it's birth here in America. The U.N is a great part of America too, we started The SORRY ASS United Nations are determined to allow the destruction of democracy in any nation who desires to have it has it already.
It is written, One World Order. And the United States Of S/C is now on that path, thanks to the election of MR.CMMO-OBAMA..

First of all, you probably should know that the US has NEVER been a democracy, but is a representative republic. Secondly, the one world order crap is the talk of Christian Dominionists that have controlled the government (i.e. ran the government into the ditch) for the past eight years. The talk of socialism and communism is silly when looked looked at our history. Ever hear of "Social" security, Medicare, FIDC, your local trash pickup, Medicaid, and on and on and on. This country has been quasi-socialist since the late 1930's, and I'd venture to say that this country is a MUCH better place.

There is something I find funnier than hell, that in the early 70s, when feminists lobbied for stronger porno laws, (and got them), one of the first books to be banned just about everywhere that got into banning books was Our Bodies, Ourselves.

I dont judge others for there way of life and the way they live, but when you look back on history of other country's living by communisim and socialisim it does not work never has and never will, I do not my country the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA which so many have died for in past wars trying to defeat them who lived like that, it is not for the Gov, to riule us and control our lives. when the Gov wants to take from me and give to those that dont want to work, or pay a morgage that they should have never gotten in the first place, I dont make much as it is, but I worked for what i got.
I do not want Washington telling me who I should give some of my earnings to. nor should you.

We are not Russia,Old Rome,France, and many more, we are Americans and freedom and true Democracy are what we really are.
We need to understand that and not travel the ways of the others countrys,
that have been there.Everyone of those nations were destroyed from within because of there Gov. And now we are going to find out what it really is to be brought to our knees.
Im not Republican,Democrat, but the Liberals are tearing this Country apart with there socialistic thinking and so forth.
And we need to stand up and do whats right for each and everyone who want freedom of CHOICE.
I will keep my guns,money,dreams,hopes,and home you can kkep the CHANGE.



STOP STEALING OUR MONEY,
STOP LYING TO US
STOP THE WASTEFUL SPENDING
STOP SPENDING MONEY WE DONT HAVE.
STOP TELLING US THAT WE CANT PRAY,
STOP ALL THE BULL->-bleeped-<- THAT IS DESTROYING US.
JUST STOP IT.
WE DONT WORK FOR YOU WASHINGTON, YOU WORK FOR US.

This is why people need to do everything they to make their voices heard.

I don't think anyone is telling people they can't pray.
