Broadcast:
Dr. Dobson Discusses Dangers of Hate-Crimes Bill
by Devon Williams, staff writer

SUMMARY: 'What you can do is pray; pray for this great
nation.'

Today, during the 'Focus on the Family' daily broadcast, Dr.
Dobson and a panel of experts express grave concern over
hate-crimes legislation that recently passed in the U.S.
House.

The dangerous bill, awaiting Senate consideration, would
create a new class of crimes based on the victim's
"actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender
identity. Those who speak out against homosexuality,
including pastors, could face prosecution for
'inciting' violence against gay individuals."

Even more concerning, the legislation could create special
protection for 'pedophiles'.
Democrats voted down an amendment to the bill that would have excluded pedophilia from the
definition of 'sexual orientation'.

Dr. Dobson said that in his 32 years on the air, he's
never seen a time quite like the one we're facing now.

"Legislation that should shock the nation -- if people
were paying attention -- is being rushed into law," he
said.
"Things are being done that will undermine the
rule of law and seriously damage morality and decency in the
culture."

Though the situation seems hopeless, Dr. Dobson urged
listeners to remain in prayer.
"What you can do is pray; pray for this great
nation," he said.
"I urge you to hold up this country in a solemn petition for the nation because as I see
it, there is no other answer."

Dr. Dobson's panel guests included Tom Minnery, senior
vice president of government and public policy for Focus on
the Family Action; Gary Bauer, president of American Values;
Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Tex.; and Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa.
