The left-wing Canadian Jewish Congress, the special-interest lobby group most responsible for criminalizing speech in Canada, is obviously feeling some political heat because of what they have wrought. Their figurehead co-presidents ... wrote a muddled column called "Some human rights complaints are frivolous". ...<BR/><BR/>In other words, the concept of a "pre-crime" is still fine by them. No-one has to be exposed to hatred or contempt for someone to be found guilty. It just has to be "likely" that could happen. And hatred or contempt -- emotional feelings -- are enough. The CJC doesn't even think that a discriminatory act is necessary for a conviction. They support the notion of thought crimes.<BR/>...<BR/><BR/>What an embarrassment the CJC has become. Essentially they are pleading for Steyn and I as special cases. Is it because I'm a Jew and Steyn sounds like he might be, too? Is it because we're being sued by Muslim fanatics? ...<BR/><BR/>The CJC's op-ed will be seen as nothing but more proof for anti-Semites and neo-Nazis who claim -- with historical and statistical validity -- that the hate speech provisions are a tool used mainly by secular, leftist Jews to punish their anti-Semitic critics. ...<BR/>...<BR/><BR/>Offensive and anti-Semitic free speech didn't kill the Jews during the Holocaust. Murderous men did, and they only did when real rights and freedoms were destroyed -- the right to property; the right to life; the right to equality before the law; mobility rights; freedom of religion; freedom of association. Violent acts killed the Jews, not "feelings" of "contempt". How revolting that the official Jews now propose limiting real rights and freedoms in the vain hope that will stop people from feeling "hatred" for them. I'm no anti-Semite, but if I'm anything to go by, the CJC, and the other supporters of these unconstitutional laws are the ones engendering feelings of contempt. ...</I><BR/><BR/>He also links to a supposed internal report of his inquisitor from <A HREF="http://iowahawk.typepad.com/iowahawk/2008/01/filed-in-tripli.html" REL="nofollow"> Iowahawk </A> which must surely rate some form of award, genuine or not.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
