The House of Commons has just passed a major bill to combat “anti-Semitism,” with majorities from both parties supporting it.
The bill itself is described as forcing the Department of Education to adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Coalition’s definition of anti-Semitism when enforcing the Civil Rights Act of 1964 on college campuses.
Only 21 Republicans and 70 Democrats opposed it.
This bill was passed in the name of combating anti-Semitism, but glenn beck We understand what it really means to criminalize hate speech.
“When people say, “The Jews killed Jesus,” or “Those dirty Jews run the world,” or “Everything that goes wrong is the fault of those Jews,” or “They have Zionist masters.” ‘I’m just saying that,’ and I think, ‘You’re such an idiot, myself,'” Glenn says.
“You shouldn’t be running around saying things like this, but I actually like it when you do it because I know exactly who you are,” he added.
Despite his feelings about anti-Semites, his feelings about the bill remain the same.
“I am adamantly opposed to this, and so should you. Something can be legally permissible and morally repugnant at the same time. Speech needs to be protected and We need to protect what we disagree with, not what we all agree with,” he explains.
“Those who voted for this bill, I’m sure, had good intentions, but they’re misguided by human nature itself. Government can’t fix the human heart. “No,” he continued, asking, “Why can this Congress only pass things that seemingly undermine America’s power and ignore the Constitution?”
