Subject:
The "Thought Crimes Bill" is Unconstituional.

To:
Rep. Lois Capps

November 7, 2009

Ever heard of "equal protection under the law"? You should be ashamed of yourself for helping to pass the "Hate Crimes Bill". All of your constituants deserve to be protected just as much as any other. Instead, you have decided to create a judicial caste system where it is less desirable to commit crimes against only a certain group of people.

Shame on you! Quit creating special interest group legislation and start protecting all of your constituants equally.

Eventually this Bill will be struck down by the Supreme Court. Maybe you should take a civics course and quit wasting taxpayer money.
