  • Offenders could face up to five years in prison for the felony offense - some have argued that the legislation could infringe on free speech rights
  
  Michigan's House of Representatives has passed a hate speech bill, known as HB 4474, which criminalizes causing someone to feel threatened by words, which could include the misusing of their pronouns, with the possibility of a hefty fine or even jail time.
  
  

The bill introduces hate crime penalties for causing someone to 'feel terrorized, frightened, or threatened,' with 'sexual orientation' and 'gender identity or expression' included as protected classes.

Offenders could face up to five years in prison for such a felony offense or a $10,000 fine.


This new hate speech bill passed in the Democrat-controlled House 59-50 and will now move to the Michigan State Senate (also Democrat controlled) for further consideration.

'The state of Michigan is now explicitly allowing the gender delusion issue to be used as a 'protected class.' This opens up numerous issues when it comes to the courts and the continued weaponization of the system against conservatives,' Rigas said.

Rigas suggested that conservatives would have to rely on the courts to challenge the legislation such is the lack of Republican influence in Michigan's branches of power.

Exactly.

I feel anyone advocating my disarmament is threatening me.

They should all be sent to prison.

Why would they want to disarm me if they weren't planning to try to harm me ?

I absolutely love this. Laws that this are awesome. Pure love.

This is the kind of law, if worked properly, could send all kinds of freaks to jail.

They love using the CIS word to describe normal people, if ever called this, take as much offense and be scared. Press charges.

Same with TERF, TERF is an acronym for trans-exclusionary radical feminist.

Take offense....

It should work both ways but, as we have seen only certain groups can be racist.

Felony = no guns. They know exactly what them are doing.

But we all know it won't. Very few of us on this board belong to one of the "protected classes".

In this world we live in, all you need to say is that you identify as a protected class and they have to accept you for your beliefs.

You do not have a right not to be offended.

If you do not like what I'm saying, don't listen, walk away, or verbally engage nonviolently. If none of those work for you.... tough.

This is not a law. I have my limits about what I will respect or even tolerate with regard to unconstitutional things to avoid problems. This is very much at those limits of where a stand would need to be taken to some degree, a line in the sand drawn.

I feel personally threatened and in danger, when I hear Rap, and hip hop------------ speaking about killing me, and"the Man"..................

If you are like us, your exposure to rap or hip-hop “music” may have thus far been limited to hearing it — at maximum volume — from neighboring automobiles stopped at traffic lights. While even this much exposure may seem unendurable at times, we owe it to ourselves to investigate this often...

I understand your sentiment on this GOP, but you need an even handed criminal justice system in order for your formula to work and as we have see countless times, that is just not the case. Average people in general, are afraid to be dragged into the legal system at any level, more so today than ever. Many people are already afraid to voice their opinion on these subjects. This is vile, cynical, and unconstitutional legislation and the authors of such should be brought up on charges, but like New York, Michigan has turned the corner and made unconstitutionality legal, their voting has eclipsed NY in its corruption.
