The categories of suspect speech shown in the graphic posted with this article linked above were presented as justification for this bill in the legislature.
Citizens who dare to speak about: Election Fraud, or question Vaccines or Mask mandates & products, Critical Race Theory , or believe in and speak about traditional Judeo-Christian values can be labelled as suspects for wrong-speak. Taxpayer Funding to authorize surveillance, tracking, fines, and perhaps arrest and detention of peaceful citizens could result.
What about the First Amendment? Will it be upheld in WA state or WA DC?
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
I support HB1333. I abhor this Christian nation concept because it excludes other religions, I. E. Buddhism Hindus Jews Muslims atheists, and other religions.
So you think it is okay to exclude Christians but not other religions. You need to remember that the founders of this country were Christians and they gave freedoms to practice any religion. If someone doesn’t want to be in a predominantly Christian country why are they here?
Wake up….we aren’t predominant at all now,thanks for an idiot running and keeping up with the agenda? Any normal rational human being that has a brain should know that even if the Covid 19 BS was real and could be transferred from one to another as to be caught like a cold or flu….then why has it been proven that masks will NOT keep you from catching or giving it to someone else? There for you would think the damn border would be closed so that one could narrow down that some forced illegal immigrant could not bring the infection in to the US? BTW in case you haven’t heard…there’s a middle eastern factor here in the US now and they do not like Christian’s for they are the minority now….gaurenteed
I’m Christian. We are NOT nor ever have been a Christian nation. Screw this bill. No government should have this power
Preach brother
Au contraire-in fact, all religions enjoy freedom of speech and expression with the exception of Christianity being put down constantly by the left-wing woke folk. Jesus Christ is Lord and every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord-before the end of time to the glory of God, the father. wake up. What are you afraid of? people that believe in Jesus saying that he is lord and savior? you can worship whoever you want you don’t have to listen.
No government should have this kind of power. In any case the bill has no representation for Europeans unless they’re gay. My two sons are mixed but they look white. I don’t like that people have told me my kids should die and that I should die because we are “white”. I am against racism. ALL prejudice against race. This is extremely overstepping and will be abused. I use to vote Democrat when I voted. I can’t believe I’m voting Republican.
