NEW CONSTITUTION??? WHAT is wrong with the old one? NOTHING!


"I have lived, Sir, a long time, and the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth – that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire [cannot] rise without His aid? We have been assured, Sir, in the sacred writings, that 'except the Lord build the house they labor in vain that build it'." Benjamin Franklin


NEW CONSTITUTION??? WHAT is wrong with the old one? NOTHING!



Wickedness will not rest and those who really want to ruin this God given country and its foundation are becoming more and more an absurdity to us all who are moved by the Holy Spirit to stand for righteousness which is Christ's. Of course true believers are not flawless we have our shortcomings as well but we realize we need GOD In Christ Jesus to live and have our being and praise and worship HIM without ceasing thanking HIM for HIS mercies He bestows on US when we in no way deserve any grace since we have despised HIM in times past and deserve HIS wrath in which HE is justified to do so. But I Praise HIM that HE JESUS paid the Price we so deserve in our place so we can have eternal life and abundantly if we DENY ourselves pick up our crosses and follow HIM. I also praise God for "the day of Lord" and I pray it becomes very soon because these days of Noah and times of Lot need to end. 

Once again I come across more news of person trying tot ruin OUR simple well advised and understandable Constitution that Many Americans gave their lives up so we can have a country like we had before the morass took over and are trying to take our freedoms away. First it was destroying the REPUBLIC and establishing Democracy which we know what becomes of Democracy which turns into tyrannical Socialism eventually as History has shown us repetitively in which I am Glad thus far we haven't rid our country of this hope of a REPUBLIC yet to come again if God wills.

I know God is Sovereign and in control and this I stand on completely but the American Puritan Patriot in me also becomes overly disturbed because of knowing and honoring our countries blood gushing stained past for what we still about have which is the Amendments and the Bill of Rights and the last grasps of COMMON LAW which should be our norm of keeping LAW and our nations and state courts in Justification-al balance. Can we agree that since CASELAW went into effect in 1962 our countries justice system became corrupted and unbalanced and it is getting worse because WE sleeping American Patriots are letting our Elected officials get away with much more than murder in all forms. HOW STUPID ARE WE Becoming? When I read that there are folks that want to rewrite the Constitution (SEE Source: http://www.christianworldviewnetwork.com/article.php/2731/Phyllis_Schlafly) and they are gaining on their publicity daily it seems I ask myself "How can we let this go on? DO American's actually care about losing their freedom and especially the documents that are timeless that are almost next to perfect foundations to what we have built?

Now believe me I always weigh the balances of what I research and I know what was then 240 years ago and how are history developed good and evil to Postmodernism today. I look at what had worked and what still works except for myself knowing that the US Constitution has been suspended since 1933 for the most part because of all the crooked things and fraternity Typed "Clicks" of the NWO type "Global loyalist's" that seem to have been reforming this country into what these "deconstructionist's" I call them want to be, and that is FAR from what our Fore Fathers intended and they have been getting away with it daily. 
WAKE UP TO THE TRUTH THEY KEEP DENYING YOU! 

Here is a hint. 

"CASE-LAW" is UNCONSTITUTIONAL GET IT! AND IT UNCONSTITUTIONAL SYSTEM OF LAW, WHICH IS LAWLESSNESS, RUNS YOUR COUNTRY. THE SUPREME COURT IS CORRUPTED BY "CASE LAWS" VERY LAWLESSNESS. THEY RULE UNCONSTITUTIONALLY DAILY FOOLING AMERICA THAT THEY ARE UPHOLDING THE CONSTITUTION. 
AMERICA WAS ESTABLISHED WITH "COMMON LAW" WHICH IS ITS FOUNDATION WHICH CHIEF CORNERSTONE IS JESUS AND IT WAS A FINE OILED SYSTEM FOR 150 YEARS UNTIL CORRUPTION WAS ALLOWED BY AMERICANS WHO WERE PUT TO SLEEP BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT WATCHING AND DENYING THE GOD WE TRUST. 

Why do you think Abortion is an issue? Why is marriage being threatened? Why is the Bible not taught in Schools? Why is a prayer a major issue? Why is Crime more of plague like AIDS with no cure? Why do people get away with murder? Why is Justice not truly practiced? Why is our educational system plagued with sexual epidemic? Why is there a private organization IRS running our tax system? Why is another private corporation "The Federal Reserve" in control of our economy WHAT?)
WHY are they teaching not accurate American History in Schools anymore? Why are they not allowing Creation Science to counter the false teaching of evolution in Science anymore, which is proven to be a fairy tale? 
WHY IS IT NOT "WE THE PEOPLE" ANYMORE? And please do not say that back then was different because it wasn't. It is foolish to think like this and a very poor excuse to save face. 

AMERICANS should be ashamed of themselves for not watching like the rest of US who are seemingly becoming less and less because Most Americans do not really care do they anymore? Of course they do not because look at what we have allowed these past years since 1961. Take a GOOD look at who is running this country and we will see the Plague of truly Anti American politicians who really want interdependence or Globalism than keeping National Sovereignty in which all these Elected officials SWORE TO UPHOLD. Take a look at all the IDOL statues in Washington DC that has nothing to do with GOD and country. Do you see all the IDOLATRY that Americans allowed in these monuments in Washington DC? The Washington monument is a male private part. It is an obelisk and an obelisk is a male private part. The god Mars is standing guard at the Capitol with the goddess of darkness on top of the Capitol dome? Take a good look around American. God hates idolatry and idolaters as well as all sinners who despise God will be punished and He promised this. 

Revelation 21:8 (Amplified Bible)
But as for the cowards and the ignoble and the contemptible and the cravenly lacking in courage and the cowardly submissive, and as for the unbelieving and faithless, and as for the depraved and defiled with abominations, and as for murderers and the lewd and adulterous and the practicers of magic arts and the idolaters (those who give supreme devotion to anyone or anything other than God) and all liars (those who knowingly convey untruth by word or deed)--[all of these shall have] their part in the lake that blazes with fire and brimstone. This is the second death. 

You may say that I hold a bias to my God and religion which is my First Amendment Right but I tell you NO I hold to the very REAL TRUTH FIRST which is GOD's HOLY WORD the Bible and it is not relativism but true for all mankind and it is proven too. Study the Bible yourself and God will show you if you really want to know. Second, I hold to my country because it is supposed to follow HIS guidelines to be a Sovereign nation under GOD and I am a Natural Born Citizen of this country and do care that it is going down in flames because my fellow Americans Allowed it to happen and they are still asleep and most are headed for eternal damnation and do not even care because they would rather believe the lie than the truth. We have a MEDIA owned by propagandist's that do not care if we go down in flames or not and will not report the TRUTH. Only truth they will report is what is told to them to report but not real truth. Only the things the Government wants US to hear and those bent on decaying freedom. 

So we see there is common complaints and real news that is true and is always denied, ignored, or dismissed. We have so called experts that will not face the issues. No one MAJOR NEWS NETWORK will stand up for righteousness even the Christian ones are in compromise. MONEY is their entire god and not the GOD who is in control who is allowing their season to be until harvest is ready to be reaped for HIS cup of vengeance filled with his wrath to be poured out on those who are disobedient to HIM. This will happen and this is FACT. May it not be YOU. Do not compromise Christians for nothing. God is the Gospel and you know what HIS statues and His commandments are and they remain always unchanged. As for Americans, Remember, Through our Fore Fathers our Sovereign God made this foundation for this new nation and before its too late why would we allow our Bloodstained nation become the North American Union or whatever Global elitist regime that steals our freedom, our National Sovereignty and makes the U.S. a byproduct with the corruption that the rest of the antiGod world is under. I would rather have the DELAY from wrath that America the Babylon so deserves so more souls in America will finally get it and be saved by the very Creator GOD who gives them breath and plenty of it. JESUS.

BAD NEW PLANS TO REWRITE THE CONSTITUTION (Phyllis Schlafly, Christian Worldview Network)

Let's face it. Some people, especially liberals, just don't like our United States Constitution. Every few years, they come up with wild or devious plans to make major changes.
The would-be rewriters of the Constitution do not merely propose amendments to remedy a problem, as allowed for in Article V. They seek structural change after hurling put-downs such as archaic, out-of-date, and dating from the horse-and-buggy era.
The latest to imagine that he can write a 21st century improvement on our great Constitution is University of Virginia professor Larry J. Sabato . . . .

Here are some of Sabato's 23 Proposals to Revitalize Our Constitution, which he set forth in his new book entitled 'A More Perfect Constitution'. [see complete list at source website]
• Who knows what mischief is lurking under Sabato's proposal that his new constitution would require an automatic registration system for U.S. citizens in order to guarantee that their right to vote is not "abridged by bureaucratic requirements"? Is this an underhanded way to help the liberals invalidate state requirements that voters show a valid ID?
• The worst of all Sabato's proposals is to call for a new Constitutional Convention that would scrap our present Constitution and start over from a clean slate. We don't see any James Madisons, George Washingtons or Ben Franklins around today, and we're mighty worried about the men who think they are capable of rewriting our Constitution. [italics ours]

Are Abortion Pictures Necessary Tools to convince the Public of the truth?

First Amendment Watch, NWO harassment?




Are Abortion Pictures Necessary Tools to convince the Public of the truth?
( Article by Richard White 2007 (C)

I have seen the abhorrent pictures straddled along public events and have watched the numerous vehicles with Pictures of babies in gruesome array making one look away in disgust. I have seen children scream and some standing in awe of the horrible depiction's they are witnessing in real time in public. I seen distraught and angry fighting mad parents attack such individuals who promote and display these pictures, I have even hear rumors of shootings and riots at these public protest displays because of these horrible descriptions and pictures being presented. Can we say that these pictures go to far in presenting the truth?

I have heard apologists say yes and I heard other apologists say no. To explain the "NO" apology side they say there could be a better approach than to publicly display gruesome pictures as these to not offend families and children because sites like these tend to do harm rather than good, while the "YES" apology side says that all other ways have failed and the public even children need to see the atrocities of this abhorrent practice to tell the truth that Life starts at conception and this practice is murder plain and simple and that this holocaust must be stopped immediately. If persons do not see what is going on behind the scenes they will never reject it.

Of course I myself do not like the pictures nor would really like them seen displayed because they are disgusting and horrible but they do have their place in a godless society who are programmed to believe that aborting a human in its beginning stages is a normal thing and an acceptable norm of society. We now have pills for the "morning after" for birth control. Fornication is an acceptable practice and abortion for the most part eradicates the problem if one chooses to call pregnancy a problem or to relate it to any other cold or flu virus thinking abortion is the surgical anti-biotic cure to the symptom of accidental pregnancy. Accidental Pregnancy?

We Americans have grown so greatly in dull care of reality that it jargons me to even write about it because I would think who would really pay attention to what I am writing about anyway. Even the Church, so sad and heart breaking, has now completely ignored God's commandments and statutes and has fallen in line with societies ill norms that it is even hard to warn the BODY of the apostasies it has fallen into because the church has grown into purpose driven hoopla instead of in your face presentation of sinful man and his need for a Savior or he suffers God's wrath against all ungodliness which is once and final eternal punishment of fire forever. Of course no one wants to hear this too.



No one also liked Mel Gibson's graphic Motion Picture "The Passion for the Christ" how grotesque it depiction was and some do not want to really hear how Jesus THE CHRIST took upon himself the wrath of God on the Cross to glorify God first, to justify the Saints before HE came and the Saints after HE came and went to HIS cursed tree where HE took away the sins of the world and JESUS was an innocent man of all things like the aborted babies who never had that chance to live because of the wickedness in man. But once hearing this message or seeing the okay motion picture description violently many became Saved and both descriptions and public displays did work regardless of how disgusting they sounded or was depicted in sight and in public. And these abortion pictures gruesome as they may be are changing minds and educating the public whether they like it or not. Sometimes as the public is intrigued by shock sighted things watching Television and going to Cinemas to see fake gruesome things, public display of abortion practices do have it place no matter how offensive it is because it is murder and a crime and it must be displayed so the practice will be finally understood that it is not choice.

The World needs to witness all the gruesome sights of genocide in all forms and that it is murder and persecution of human beings. The Media should produce the graphics of what man does to man on an hourly bases because this is reality.
But of course this will for now be not so because Dull care seems to be the norm in society. I pray that God will wake up people to reality soon so this abortion holocaust will stop amongst all the other holocaust type of situations going on in the world. As disgusting and uncomfortable these pictures tools are, they are a must need to wake up the Dull Care that Americans seem to be covered in to awaken them to the atrocities that are going every minute in their own communities and neigborhoods next door.

Pro-life leader outraged over illegal arrest, destruction of property
Rusty Pugh OneNewsNow.comNovember 28, 2007


The head of a Kansas-based pro-life group is demanding an apology and monetary damages after the driver of a pro-life truck was illegally arrested and his truck impounded in Atlanta.

Bob Roethlisberger was arrested and jailed over Thanksgiving weekend in a northern suburb of Atlanta, Georgia, on the charge of "disorderly conduct" for driving Operation Rescue's "Truth Truck" bearing signs with photos of aborted babies. The truck subsequently was impounded, and was released late Monday.

Gwinnett County Police Department officers arrested Roethlisberger Saturday after telling him that signage on the Truth Truck was "vulgar and obscene." According to the pro-life group, officers "ransacked" the back of the Truth Truck without a warrant and ordered Roethlisberger to change or remove the signs. When he refused, he was arrested and incarcerated for three days before being released on $1,000 bond.

Operation Rescue president Troy Newman says the officers' action were a violation of constitutional rights and illegal.

"These officers actually took a utility knife and cut these signs off of our completely legal, registered, and insured vehicle, and incarcerated our driver," the pro-life leader explains. "I would think this is an abuse of power, and we're going to use all civil remedies to rectify the situation."

Newman alleges that the officers punished Roethlisberger, who otherwise cooperated with authorities, for expressing a viewpoint with which they disagreed. "[Bob] refused to compromise on his message," notes Newman, "which is unequivocally protected by the First Amendment." In addition, he points out the legal right to display the images on the trucks has been upheld in courts across the nation.

But the illegal arrest and destruction of property by the police does prove one thing, Newman asserts. "If these pictures are so graphic and horrible that we don't want to see them, perhaps we shouldn't be tolerating the act of abortion," he shares.


Grand jury given green light against KS abortionists
Rusty Pugh OneNewsNow.comDecember 5, 2007

A Kansas pro-life activist says there are no further legal hurdles preventing a grand jury from investigating alleged illegal abortion activities by Planned Parenthood and Wichita abortionist George Tiller.

Planned Parenthood has dropped plans to file a motion with the Kansas Supreme Court, asking it to block the citizen-called grand jury in Johnson County from investigating the abortion business. Last week, the court rejected a similar action by late-term abortionist George Tiller of Wichita, who is also facing an investigation for allegedly violating state laws.s

Troy Newman, president of the Kansas-based Operation Rescue says, "Pro-life victories are few and far between, and we need to enjoy each and every one of them -- and this is certainly a victory. Operation Rescue has put a lot of effort [and] a lot of money into filing Supreme Court briefs blocking their actions to commit illegal activities."

Newman also states that it "definitely is pleasant when things finally go our way." He claims abortionists have been acting as though they are above the law for years, and he prays that their day of reckoning will finally come.




SEEK GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART> MAKE HIM YOUR ULTIMATE TREASURE>AND YOU WILL HAVE LIFE.

Hate Crime Hate Speech legislation. The Worse attack on the 1st amendment ever.

NWO Watch.


As I start this article I first would like to say God is sovereign and HE is in complete control of all things microscopic to Gigascopic if this is a real word I can use. The Bible factually says nothing can ever happen unless HIS permissive will and HIS sovereign will allows these events to take place so it is HIM we should fear and Glorify not the Tyrannical, immoral agendas that are consistently being pressed immorally into our semi-free world. God is in complete Control. So we can learn how not to be pessimistic and live optimistically Realistic because HIS will be done and not ours and if you are IN HIM Joy should be always overflowing in you no matter what.

Since 1961 when HARVARD LAW Professor and Dane and Darwin Worshipper Christopher Columbus Langdell evolutionary dream finally became reality in the American Justice System titled "Case LAW" replacing 151 years of Common Law and the American Public is blatantly still blinded to the fact that our Constitution was suspended in 1933 by president Franklin D Roosevelt, we have had so much attacks against our moral freedoms and Rights from tyrannical agenda immoral power mongers 24 hours a day because "Case law" became the norm in 1963 when prayer was taken out of "In God We trust" Schools, that it is any wonder that America has not fallen into dictatorship completely by the 21 first century and I say not yet thanks to God and HIS mercy when we are so terribly and wickedly undeserving of his mercy delaying such a reality to come to pass.
But the 24 hour attacks that are limiting our Rights seem to go on exhaustively 24 hours a day with one immoral agenda after another fighting for its dead existence when it is already a dead issue and unconstitutional especially when it goes against the Statutes of our Creator who designs are flawless. It is a marvel that one group of persons are pushing for the right to be against the laws of nature and forcing the world to accept the unnatural behavior which is proven to be unnatural. And to top it off if one speaks out against their obvious unnatural behavior they want to restrict any speech that proclaims the scientific proofs against them. The worst part is they want Truth seekers and proclaimers jailed for teaching reality. One Bill said up to seven years incarceration? How ludicrous is this?

Now the dumbest thing that has ever been displayed and allowed of this immoral agenda is they want Truthful Free Speech to be as equal to a hate crime calling it hate speech for anyone who speaks out against persons who choose and learned to go against God's very creational and nature laws. This article would be considered a hate crime and hate speech because I am warning with and telling the Truth that their debased minds willfully ignore. They even have a Hate Crime hit hate list. That is somewhat of an oxymoron isn't it? It is not a Hate Crime to expose the truth of observable Scientific FACT that their sexual orientation is unnatural as well as it goes against God's very created nature of human beings.

Genesis 1:27
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
Genesis 5:2
He created them male and female and blessed them. And when they were created, he called them "man. "


This is not truthfully a hate Crime or hate speech but FACT being shown naturally. And it is not hate to warn those caught in the vicious web and bondage to this sexual addiction which is the same as the Bible proves "bondage to sin".

Romans 8:21
That nature (creation) itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and corruption [and gain an entrance] into the glorious freedom of God's children.
Colossians 3:5
So kill (deaden, deprive of power) the evil desire lurking in your members [those animal impulses and all that is earthly in you that is employed in sin]: sexual vice, impurity, sensual appetites, unholy desires, and all greed and covetousness, for that is idolatry (the deifying of self and other created things instead of God).


It is a hate crime to force Moral practicing persons to accept a unnatural sexual orientation as normal when it is clearly not.
But still their agenda perversions presses on and they not willing to wake up to reality is a very sad and heart breaking thing that they have to go through many lengths to be something they are really not and force their "pretend" on the Norms of natural societies. How lonely, insecure, and unsatisfied these people will always be when they continue to reject the Creator that loves them and created them normally and calls out to them with HIS permissive Will full of mercy. He is the only ONE who can satisfy a fallen human truthfully and factually. This is FACT.

Richard White (C)Nov 29 2007

DEFINITIONS

A true Hate crime (also known as bias motivated crimes) occur when a perpetrator targets a victim because of his or her membership in a certain social group, usually defined by race, religion, sexual orientation, disability, ethnicity, nationality, age, gender, gender identity, or political affiliation.[1] Hate crimes differ from conventional crime because they are not directed simply at an individual, but are meant to cause fear and intimidation in an entire group or class of people.
...Wikipedia.org

Hate speech is a term for speech intended to degrade, intimidate, or incite violence or prejudicial action against a person or group of people based on their race, gender, age, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, language ability, moral or political views, socioeconomic class, occupation or appearance (such as height, weight, and hair color), mental capacity and any other distinction-liability. The term covers written as well as oral communication and some forms of behaviors in a public setting. It is also sometimes called antilocution and is the first point on Allport's scale which measures prejudice in a society.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hate_speech



Pennsylvania hate crimes legislation ruled unconstitutional

Allie Martin OneNewsNow.comNovember 28, 2007

The American Family Association (AFA) of Pennsylvania is applauding a decision by the state's Commonwealth Court, which declared hate crimes laws unconstitutional.

In November 2002, state lawmakers inserted hate crimes language into an agricultural vandalism bill. But the Commonwealth Court ruled that the bill passed in an unconstitutional manner. Even the original sponsors of the agriculture bill removed their names because the bill was essentially hijacked by liberal lawmakers.

But Diane Gramley, president of the AFA of Pennsylvania, says once the State Senate revised the bill, removing the language dealing with agricultural vandalism, those sponsors "wanted nothing to do with it." But Gramley says the battle over hate crimes is not over.

"The day after the Commonwealth Court handed down their decision, Governor Rendell has already asked the legislative body to act quickly to write another hate crimes law," she points out.

Gramley is encouraging pro-family activists throughout Pennsylvania to contact their state lawmakers and ask them to vote against any new hate crimes law.

Richard,

In less than a week, we expect Congress to begin pushing
the second plank of Teddy Kennedy's hate crimes legislative plan.


Kennedy has managed to get his "Hate Crimes Prevention Act"
added as an amendment to the Defense Department Appropriations
bill. His plan is to get Hate Crimes legislation passed on
the coattails of the bill that funds the entire Defense
Department -- a bill the President may feel forced to sign
to fund the Iraq war.

Right now, that appropriations bill is in the House-Senate
conference committee. Since the House version of the bill
did not include the Kennedy Hate Crimes amendment, this is
one of the key differences the conference must resolve.

If this bill emerges from conference with the Kennedy Hate
Crimes amendment, we will move dangerously close to passage
of Kennedy's pet Hate Crimes project.

+ + Action Item

With a new FBI report indicating a 7 percent increase in hate
crimes nationally, we expect homosexual rights groups to
increase pressure starting this week.

I want to counter these efforts with at least 50 faxes every
day from citizens like you who oppose Teddy Kennedy's
anti-faith hate crimes agenda.

We have identified all the key targets on the House-Senate
Conference who will decide whether Hate Crimes gets
included in the final bill. Please go here to schedule your
faxes today:

http://www.libertyaction.org/12081/offer.asp?rid=14677205

Please note -- we offer this faxing service as a convenience
for you. Your gift to Liberty Counsel covers the cost of the
fax delivery and helps us continue our vital efforts. If you
prefer to send your own faxes, please do so! We have provided
all the contact information on the same site.

Richard, Teddy Kennedy has been waiting many years for this
opportunity to pass his hate crimes plan. You and I are the
last line of defense!

Will you be one of the 50 friends we need each day to keep
a steady stream of faxes flooding Congress?

Thank you so much for your vigilance!

Arguments in opposition to hate crime lawsWikipedia.org

Arguments against hate crime legislation include the following:
Perpetrators of the same criminal act should not be treated differently because they hold different beliefs or motives.[26]
Over time, these provisions might be disregarded and hate crime laws and associated case law could evolve to the point where speaking out strongly against a particular group or its actions could be construed as a libelous hate crime, violating rights to freedom of expression, thought, religion (among others).[27]
Penalties that do not include hate-crimes enhancement are already sufficient, in that vandalism, assault and murder have always been illegal and subject to prosecution. The fact that they still occur does not justify infringing on the freedoms of speech and religion.[28]
It brings the law into disrepute and further divides society, as groups apply to have their critics silenced.[29]
Religious practices will become subject to government regulation, violating the separation of church and state.[30]
Allowing a self-declared victim to decide if a crime has occurred violates the principle of objective justice.[31]

Arguments for hate crime lawsWikipedia.org

Justifications for harsher punishments for hate crimes focus on the notion that hate crimes cause greater individual and societal harm. In Wisconsin v. Mitchell, the Supreme Court of the United States unanimously found that "bias-motivated crimes are more likely to provoke retaliatory crimes, inflict distinct emotional harms on their victims, and incite community unrest.... The State's desire to redress these perceived harms provides an adequate explanation for its penalty-enhancement provision over and above mere disagreement with offenders' beliefs or biases. As Blackstone said long ago, 'it is but reasonable that, among crimes of different natures, those should be most severely punished which are the most destructive of the public safety and happiness.'"[23] It is said that, when the core of a person’s identity is attacked, the degradation and dehumanization is especially severe, and additional emotional and physiological problems are likely to result. Society then, in turn, can suffer from the disempowerment of a group of people. Furthermore, it is asserted that the chances for retaliatory crimes are greater when a hate crime has been committed. The riots in Los Angeles, California, that followed the beating of Rodney King, a Black motorist, by a group of White police officers are cited as support for this argument.[24]
The U.S. Supreme Court unanimously found that penalty-enhancement hate crime statutes do not conflict with free speech rights because they do not punish an individual for exercising freedom of expression; rather, they allow courts to consider motive when sentencing a criminal for conduct which is not protected by the First Amendment.[23]
When it enacted the Hate Crimes Act of 2000, the New York State Legislature found that:
Hate crimes do more than threaten the safety and welfare of all citizens. They inflict on victims incalculable physical and emotional damage and tear at the very fabric of free society. Crimes motivated by invidious hatred toward particular groups not only harm individual victims but send a powerful message of intolerance and discrimination to all members of the group to which the victim belongs. Hate crimes can and do intimidate and disrupt entire communities and vitiate the civility that is essential to healthy democratic processes. In a democratic society, citizens cannot be required to approve of the beliefs and practices of others, but must never commit criminal acts on account of them. Current law does not adequately recognize the harm to public order and individual safety that hate crimes cause. Therefore, our laws must be strengthened to provide clear recognition of the gravity of hate crimes and the compelling importance of preventing their recurrence. Accordingly, the legislature finds and declares that hate crimes should be prosecuted and punished with appropriate severity."[25]
