> July 16, 2007
> > > Last week, Congress bypassed the normal committee process and filed the controversial "Hate Crimes" bill as an amendment to the Defense Authorization bill (S. 1535). This amendment is expected to be considered, voted on, and passed within the next few days.
> > The intent of this legislation is to favor some victims of violent crimes over other victims of equally violent crime while ignoring the principle of equal justice under the law. Communicating your opposition will send the message that you value equal protection for all people rather than special protections for a select few groups.
