Pedophile Protection Act Stalls in Senate

Activists mystified as to why approval is taking so long
Could more than 560,000 letters sent to the U.S. Senate by WND readers to protest "The Pedophile Protection Act" have resulted in second thoughts among Democrats?

Sources working with senators opposing the legislation say the campaign has shaken up the dynamics of the debate.

"This bill was supposed to sail through the Senate, but it suddenly has become much more controversial as a result of all these letters," one source said.

By special arrangement through WND, for only $10.95 members of the public can send 100 individually addressed letters, one to each senator, by overnight mail. Each letter is individually "signed" by the sender. The letters ask for a written response and call for opposition to the bill, including by filibuster if necessary.

Even activists favoring approval of the bill are puzzled over why the Senate has taken so long dealing with the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009, which easily passed the House last month by a vote of 249-175.

For several weeks, the Senate companion bill, S. 909, has been sitting in committee without action.

Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., told homosexual activists last week Senate leaders are still debating the best way to pass the bill.

"People have got to start lobbying," said Frank. "They should have been doing that already."


More than half a million letters have been dispatched by WND readers.
But one side in the debate already has been lobbying against a bill that was once deemed a foregone conclusion without any visible Republican opposition.

It's not too late to take advantage of the opportunity to overnight letters of opposition to the hate crimes bill to all 100 U.S. senators for only $10.95.

In an effort led by Janet Porter, a WND columnist and head of Faith2Action, some 560,000 individual letters have been delivered to members of the U.S. Senate protesting the bill.

As a result of the unique lobbying effort, last week the first opposition to the bill emerged, when Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., confirmed he will fight the "hate crimes" legislation and, if necessary, will launch a filibuster against the plan.

Opponents say the bill would designate homosexuals and others with an alternative sexual lifestyle choice for special protections under federal law. At the same time, many believe that by criminalizing thought, it would lead eventually to Christian ministers and others being prosecuted for their beliefs and statements, especially biblical condemnations of homosexuality.

Americans, meanwhile, are bombarding members of the Senate with their opposition to "The Pedophile Protection Act."

I think this will pass anyway, just for the sheer fact how things are going. Considering Obama being split over his Muslim background and his far left liberal stance. I would assume that Muslims would be considered a hate group as well as Christians since they have a similar belief when it comes to homosexuality.
Though I don't know of any passage in the Koran that states homosexuals are "deserving of death" like the Bible says.
