Welcome to the Political Cesspool, known worldwide as the South's foremost populous radio program.
And here to guide you through the murky waters of the Political Cesspool is your host, James Edwards.
Welcome back.
Welcome back to the second hour of tonight's live broadcast of the Political Cesspool Radio Program.
James Edwards and Bill Rowland here with you in studio tonight.
We hope that you enjoyed that burst of national news, which you can hear at the top of every hour of every program here on the Liberty News Radio Network.
Joining us now in studio, a very good friend of ours, been working with this program for a number of years here in the Memphis area, our legal counsel, Keith Alexander.
And Keith, I know you've been very observant and have been following some property reappraisals here in the Memphis area.
What are your findings?
Well, you know, I heard your little blurb through the break that we're giving the public news that they're not going to get elsewhere, and this is a perfect example.
Now, it may be something of news or a strange situation for listeners in places like Utah and whatnot that have a racially homogeneous population.
But in places like Memphis, this is a perfect example.
It bears importance beyond the boundaries of Memphis and Shelby County, Tennessee, because this is really what the future holds in store for us as we become a browner nation with more Hispanics and blacks.
What's happening in Memphis right now is that they're going through reappraisal for property taxes.
Memphis particularly relies on property taxes to run the government because we have no income tax in Tennessee.
Thank heaven.
But what they're doing, they had an article in the Commercial Appeal, known affectionately to the Cesspool staff here in Memphis as the Communist Appeal, where they were talking about reappraising the property and the new reappraisal notices have gone out.
And certain suburbs like Millington, Germantown, and Collierville are seeing double-digit increases in their property appraisals for tax purposes.
In other words, 10% or more.
Collierville, Germantown, Millington.
On the other hand, certain other neighborhoods, Hickory Hill, Raleigh, and Frasier were named specifically, are seeing declines.
Now, James, what do these places have in common or how do they compare with each other?
Yeah, Bill, as you've probably already surmised here, all of the white suburbs in the city of Memphis and surrounding areas have gone up in value.
Their reappraisals are going to cost them more.
There's going to be more tax revenue from the white areas, whereas Hickory Hill, Raleigh, and Fraser, the non-white areas have all gone down.
Now, it is absurd to believe that in this depression economy, in a depressed economy right now, that anybody's house has gone up.
We've been reading about homes that were built to sell at a million dollars.
They can't even move these at 300,000 now.
But the people who are already living in homes in the white areas are going to be paying more for their homes and property taxes next year.
Bill, did you catch this story?
Keith just brought it to my attention not an hour before showtime.
Absolutely, I heard it, and it doesn't surprise me at all because this actually this very thing has been going on in that area and all around Memphis for years.
There have been substantially lower property tax assessments for years.
And, you know, it hasn't been as great as it is now.
But now you're talking about in this depressed economy with fewer and fewer people able to stay in their homes and keep their homes, raising their taxes and lowering the taxes of other homeowners.
Well, the other homeowners are saying that there's a lot of things about the property that people like Ben Ferguson and Mike Fleming and all the other pseudo-conservative commentators and all the other media outlets like the newspaper and the TV stations won't say this is a racial thing.
It is a direct racial thing.
For example, right now, everything is accelerating because we have a new tax assessor recently voted into office called Cheyenne Gibson.
One guess on what her race is, fellas.
Well, she doesn't sound like an American Indian to me.
Well, she happens to be a black lady.
So consequently, now the blacks are in charge.
And there's an age-old conundrum for black politicians and for blacks generally regarding politics.
And that is how to get the white people's money without getting the white people's votes.
Well, in Memphis and Shelby County, now we finally crossed the line, the line that the rest of the nation is going to cross in the year 2042, according to projections of the U.S. Census Bureau.
In other words, whites are a minority in Shelby County now.
Blacks can vote in their own kind, which they do because they have this extreme sense of racial solidarity, which whites unfortunately lack.
And they're healthy in that sense.
I applaud that.
Well, I applaud it, but we need to be measuring things by the same standard that the Jewish population does.
They measure everything on the standard of, but is it good for the Jews?
We need to measure things on a similar basis.
Is it good for whites?
And it's definitely not good for whites because now it's being jammed to us.
They're basically shifting all of the costs of government to the white portion of the population and relieving any responsibility for paying for government from the black population or the non-white population in Memphis.
And this is going to happen, you know, coming, like they used to say, coming to a theater near you soon.
It's going to be coming to your community if these demographic trends that the U.S. Census Bureau has been talking about continue unabated.
What are we going to do about it, Bill?
Well, Keith.
We're going to pay higher taxes.
He's absolutely right.
He's absolutely right.
And the thing is that what happens with regards to cities like Memphis is they become more like cities like Detroit.
We're heading down that path where eventually the solid taxpayers in the city, the solid property owners leave, the value of property goes down to where there's no collection from that property because people just abandon their properties.
And you end up with a bankrupt city that is being completely subsidized by either the federal government or the state government.
And the cities lose population, their crime goes up.
This is the final sort of phase and stage of the cancerous development of a non-white government in a city that has no regard whatsoever for the white population.
And of course, it's all about bleeding the last drop of blood out of the productive citizens in the city.
And the white people see the way around this thing, shiptoes through the tulips.
They mention things.
The so-called mainstream conservatives will mention this incident or this phenomenon, but they will never, ever utter the word race when they discuss it.
And nor will they ever, because what's the demographic?
What's the advertising demographic?
It's less and less white.
So, of course, they're not going to mention it.
Plus, they're in the hip pocket of the globalists who are running things, and the globalists basically see this as a good thing.
And, you know, basically, you know, will the last person out of Memphis, last solvent taxpayer, turn off the lights?
As Memphis becomes more like Detroit, America will become more and more like Haiti, gentlemen.
Well, that's the way it's going.
And the only way to reverse that is sell your property while it's still worth something and get out of the city and buy property, more property, somewhere else where at least you can grow vegetables to eat rather than being eaten alive in the city by the predators who prey on people who pay their taxes and obey the law.
Well, as they say, you can run, but you can't hide, Bill.
And sooner or later, we're going to have to stand.
We can't just be driven out of one area after another.
And with this demographic trend that the Census Bureau is talking about, by the year 2042, there'll be nowhere left to run.
Well, I just don't think there's any future in a city that is so far gone.
Detroit, there's no point in moving to Detroit to try to reclaim civilization because it ain't happening.
Well, what we need to do, and what I would specifically encourage people in Memphis and Shelby County to do is appeal your appraisals.
It's absolutely absurd to think that anybody's property, either residential or commercial, has increased in value over the past several years because of the economic climate and particularly the real estate market right now.
You just want appraisal for your property.
Keith, we're about to run out of time.
We got somebody lined up right after you.
But I want to appreciate you for bringing this issue to the attention of our listeners, particularly those who listen to us here at home in Memphis.
Of course, we're on six days a week here in Memphis.
They replay our show, the live shows here on Saturday night on WLRM.
So we want people to know that this is what's happening to them, and everyone should flood, flood the assessor's office with complaints.
Take it all the way to the Tennessee Supreme Court if necessary.
Wear them out.
Keith, thanks for bringing this up.
We hope people take action about these bogus and unjustifiable reappraisals of the property and the continued redistribution of the wealth from the working class to the lower class.
We'll be back right after this with more James Edwards and Bill Rowland here with you tonight on the Political Cesspool Radio Program on the Liberty News Radio Network.
Sit tight, everyone.
More to come.
Go away.
There's more Political Sesspool coming your way right after these messages.
Welcome back to get on the Political Sesspool.
Call us on James's Dime, toll-free, at 1-866-986-6397.
And here's the host of the Political Cesspool, James Edwards.
Just a quick programming note of things still to come tonight.
You know, this show, we have been very fortunate.
I think all of the staff and production crew of this program would agree to have been able to have interviewed so many great historians and presidential candidates, elected officials, countless PhDs, authors, actors, musicians, some of whom have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
We have really interviewed a lot of great people on this show.
Some of our heroes, Pat Buchanan, Peter Brimelow, General Hal Moore, Paul Craig Roberts.
But out of all the people we have had the joy of talking with on this program, one of the men that I have enjoyed probably more than any, Sam Dixon.
And he's going to be our guest a little later on in the program tonight after Reverend Ted Pike.
But before we get to those two guests on the show this evening, Bill, we've got someone on the line right now, and I'd like for you to make their introduction.
Yes, we have Mike from Tennessee on the line, and he is going to relate, I think, a very disturbing story to us about stops being, people being stopped by law enforcement officers, random stops, checkpoint stops on state highways and state roads, simply to shake you down for your driver's license, check your identity.
Mike, are you with us?
I'm with you.
Great.
Well, I understand you related to this story to me earlier, and I thought it was newsworthy.
I thought we ought to get it on the radio about checkpoints being set up by the Tennessee Highway Patrol all over the state simply to stop people and check to see if they have a driver's license or just stop them at random.
Well, that is correct.
And first of all, I want to say, man, James, Bill, it's wonderful.
It's a privilege to be on the radio with you both.
You're both dear friends of mine, and it's a pleasure talking to you guys this evening.
Well, it's good having you.
That is exactly what's taking place.
I've been personally through two of these checkpoints in just the last two weeks.
And they're conducting these suspicionless driver's license checkpoints and roadblocks all over Tennessee under the pretext of public safety.
But my first experience with this was about two weeks ago.
My wife and two children, we were on our way to a grocery store.
And we came up on a checkpoint and pulled up to it.
And Tennessee Highway Patrol was conducting it.
And I just moved to this county from the Memphis area that I live in now.
And they asked me if this was my current address.
And I said, no, I moved here about five months ago.
And they motioned me to pull off the road.
And so I pulled off the road and he asked for all our papers, you know, insurance, registration, all that.
And took it to a squad car, stayed about 10 minutes in a squad car, came back with a $195 ticket.
And so I asked him, I said, you're giving me a ticket.
Because I realized I should have changed my address, but I didn't know there was such a time limit.
It was a 10-day time limit, according to the trooper.
And at that time, I was a little bit angry that he was giving me a ticket for this.
And in the paper here, the local newspaper, they have been advertising how they've had these checkpoints.
Well, under Tennessee Supreme Court ruling in 2001, Tennessee versus Hicks, driver's license checkpoints have been ruled unconstitutional.
So I asked the trooper, I said, sir, are you aware that what you're doing here, these driver's license checkpoints, are unconstitutional?
Well, immediately I was told, get out of the vehicle and shut the door so your children don't have to hear our conversation.
My only regret is that I wished I had left the door open because I said, no, sir, I want my children to hear what our country has come to.
But anyway, I stepped out of the truck and he was very, I mean, very angry and already said, oh, what we have here is a know-it-all.
And I said, no, sir, I'm not a know-it-all.
I'm just simply relaying the fact.
Are you aware that according to the Tennessee Supreme Court, this is unlawful?
And I said, and this is reminiscent to me of nothing less than what I would have expected to find in Nazi Germany.
Well, you can probably imagine how that went over.
So anyway, he called his commanding officer over and told him the same thing, that I was a know-it-all and that I was calling them Nazis.
And so anyway, he came, they told me to stand to the side, and they conferred with each other for a few minutes and then came over to me and checked, again, the commanding officer checked my tag and my license.
Basically, he got up within about four inches of my face and told me, we'll do what the blank we want to do.
And at that point, I realized they wanted to escalate this thing.
If it had been my time and no witnesses, I'd have probably been a victim of being tased because these guys, I don't know if the younger officer was just out of a rack or what, but he was ready to rock.
And they were pretty angry.
Michael dared to question them.
I don't mean to interrupt, but you've really got my blood boiling over here because I've been privy to some of this, not to this extreme circumstances that you're describing here within my realm of personal contacts, but I believe you're exactly right about their intentions there.
And of course, Chuck Baldwin, a man who's been on this show several times and several of our other contacts have commented recently in their publications that in fact in the state of Missouri, the entire state highway patrol there are being now trained to view anyone who makes any reference to the Constitution or has any paraphernalia related to Ron Paul or Constitution Party or Libertarian Party as a domestic terrorist.
Well that would be the Missouri Information Analysis Center.
And they have told that to the Missouri State Highway Patrol and they're also spreading that to other police departments around the nation.
It's very disturbing, Mike.
So you basically set them off by making reference to the Constitution.
Well, I just dared, I just asked them in a very polite manner that are you aware that what you're doing here is unlawful.
A driver's license checkpoint, I've got it pulled up on my computer in front of me, is declared unconstitutional.
It says right here, the Supreme Court of Tennessee has held such suspicionless checkpoints to be unconstitutional under the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution in Article 1, Section 7 of the Tennessee Constitution.
Now, sobriety checkpoints are accepted.
What about seatbelt checks?
Because you know they love to pull you over to see if you're wearing a seatbelt so they can knock you up for $25.
Does that make the cut or not?
This is nothing but a revenue scheme.
That's all it is.
In fact, Fox News had an article here back in February 10th, 2009, about speeding parking tickets on a rise as a government revenue source.
And that's all it's about.
It's getting revenue.
I guess that's a dog for a different fight.
I would love to start complaining about that as I have done so many times for this program.
But first of all, right now, I want to retain our focus to the issue that you've brought up.
Very disturbing, Michael.
And I'm telling you, I don't think you were a random victim here.
I think this is something that everyone could expect the same type of treatment if they were, in fact, to be a knowledgeable citizen about the laws that our law enforcement continue to break.
Well, and another thing, another thing here is they were profiling because as I was pulled off the side of the road, my wife and children and I were sitting there watching the people go by.
And they weren't stopping everyone.
And they were just profiling.
Are they stopping the people that they thought might actually pay the fine, which would be letting little old people go through and young ladies go through, but any guys that might, you know, I guess look suspicious in any way.
And according to the trooper, he said as soon as I pulled up, I could sense an attitude from you.
And I guess I'm supposed to enjoy being harassed as I'm on the way to the grocery store.
Well, Bill, I know we're coming close to a break.
What can you say to punctuate the juriness here?
We have 60 seconds.
As Mike well knows, there are never any illegal aliens who get caught in this net.
No, nor are any ever detained and sent to jail and deported.
It's law-abiding citizens who are being caught in this net.
And it's just, as Mike says, it's all a revenue scheme.
And I guarantee you that if Mike had been in some broken-down old car that would barely make it down the road, he'd have been passed right through as well.
Well, sure, he would have.
And of course, the illegal aliens, number one, they're not going to pay the ticket to begin with.
And number two, the cop would be fired for racially profiling the guy.
Exactly.
I talked to a Memphis police officer just a few days ago, and they were told, he told me himself that they do not apprehend.
I mean, illegal can come through these checkpoints, not have a driver's license, not have insurance, and they do nothing.
Michael come on through.
Michael, we're going to have to pick up this story on another day.
I want to thank you for bringing it to our attention tonight and being on the program.
We're flat out of time.
Got to go to another break before we bring on our next guest.
But God bless you, brother.
We'll talk to you again soon.
Sit tight, everybody.
The political cesspool returns right after this.
Don't go away.
The political cesspool, guys.
We'll be back right after these messages.
Show and express your opinion in the Political Says poll.
Call us toll-free at 1-866-986-6397.
Art, Frith, you have absolutely outdone yourself with all the great bumpers, and you really went far into the archives for that Ray Stevens diddy.
I appreciate it.
Art earning his paycheck tonight in the political cesspool.
And we've covered a lot of ground on tonight's broadcast so far.
From Joe the Plumber to Russian Ice Cream, Nancy Pelosi, St. Patrick's Day under Attack.
We've talked about Cal Thomas, homeschooling, property reappraisals in Memphis, and illegal unconstitutional highway checkpoints by the police.
Is there anything we won't talk about?
We forgot to the car wreck.
We talked about Bill's car wreck.
We really will talk about everything.
I'll talk about nothing draws a crowd like a car wreck.
So I'm going to mention it again to get the audience sort of juiced up for the rest of the show.
All right.
Well, there you go.
We like watching car wrecks and we like watching train wrecks.
That would be the Republican Party.
We're having too much fun here in the cesspool.
But all that being said, it is time now to welcome our first featured guest of the evening, a man who certainly needs no introduction to our audience, a man who has made dozens of appearances on our program over the course of the last few years, Reverend Ted Pike.
He is the director of the National Prayer Network, a Christian conservative watchdog organization.
He has been truth tellers and Reverend Ted Pike have been the primary opponents to the federal hate crimes legislation proposed by the ADL over the course of the last few years.
And in my opinion, Ted Pike has played an absolutely pivotal and indispensable role in defeating such legislation as it has come knocking on our door so many times before.
It is now knocking on our door again.
Reverend Pike, you were just with us on this program two weeks ago, week before last, but there have been some new developments in the current manifestation of the hate crime legislation.
And Nancy Pelosi is up to no good when it comes to this issue.
What's the latest scoop, Reverend Pike?
Well, several weeks ago, Nancy Pelosi in a press conference mentioned that she and top Democratic leaders were going to be conferring very soon, developing a strategy for passing federal hate crimes bills and INDA, which is the workplace hate bill.
It's the Employment Non-Discrimination Act.
And I just felt led in my latest email alert, which is available at truthtellers.org, to point out that there is a strategy which has been used before and was successful, in fact, in passing it in the House of Representatives last year in an indirect way.
And it revolves around the fact that the present federal hate crimes bill, which is now in the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime, is not really the full hate crimes bill, which the Obama Pelosi crowd want.
It's a shortened version, what's called a decoy version.
It's only three pages.
It's a condensation and an abbreviation of the longer federal hate crimes bill they want, and the one they did pass two years ago in the House of Representatives, which is H.R. 15 and 92.
And the present bill, H.R. 256, only demands that there be federal empowerment to come down into the states anytime the federal government wants to put down violent hate crimes in the states.
Now, in this short version, the average congressman may hear some controversy about the hate bill.
So he goes and he reads the actual text and he says, lo and behold, well, there's nothing so bad here.
The government just wants to come in, put down violent hate crimes when the states can't or won't enforce their own state hate laws.
I don't see anything so bad about this.
You know, I'm getting a lot of calls about this, but what's the big ruckus?
This is just the federal government being a backstop there in case the states don't have enough money or personnel, et cetera, to prosecute violent hate crimes.
So he makes up his mind about the federal hate bill out of this abbreviated, this incomplete version.
And then what happens is several months later, the Pelosi crowd brings in the full-length hate bill.
Now, that has not happened yet, but it did happen two years ago.
The shorter version, the David Ray Hate Crimes Prevention Act, H.R. 254 it was then, was brought in, and just about exactly this time in mid-March, then John Conyers, head of the House Judiciary Committee, brought in H.R. 15 and 92.
The strategy was to run it through very quickly through the Judiciary Committee out on the floor of the House.
But fortunately, at that time, two years ago, our National Prayer Network had been leading the fight to deluge the 39 members of the House Judiciary Committee with protests against the hate bill.
And so, you see, the hate bill was getting much too well known by that time.
And in fact, 11 feisty Republicans put forth 11 different amendments trying to water down the hate bill.
And the strategy didn't work.
What happened was there was so much controversy, well-publicized controversy in the hearings of the Judiciary Committee that finally Conyers and the rest of them just dawdled around.
They weren't ready to move it through rapidly.
And yes, eventually the hate bill did pass in the House, but later it failed to pass in the House.
And so we are still free in America.
The hate bill did not pass in either the House or the Senate in the final approval.
Well, Reverend Pike, you know, again, you've made this modern-day Paul Revere ride across the airwaves, having appeared on hundreds of radio shows sounding the alarm about this Orwellian and very dangerous law that would certainly target Christians and conservatives of all stripes.
We've beaten it in the past.
How are we coming together this time?
What's your, if you rub your crystal ball, do you think we can beat it back again, or are the Democrats too strong this year?
Well, that is a very good question.
It is true that the truth about the evil fruits of hate crimes legislation is filtering into Congress.
I mean, you can't hide the loss of freedom in Canada and Holland, England, Australia, Germany, and so on.
It's all over the Internet, and you'd have to be almost illiterate not to know that hate crimes laws and in free speech, at least in many of the countries where they've been tried.
Yeah, it has very little to do with ending so-called hate crimes or hate speech.
It has everything to do with censoring free speech for everyone.
And everyone will pay if this goes through.
People are mistakenly thinking that this is going to target radical, violent cells, but that's not it at all.
It's going to target people like me and you.
It's going to target mainstream Christianity, as watered down as that has become.
Yeah, that's right.
You see, this present bill supposedly aims at violent hate crimes.
But let me ask you, when did any of our listeners hear of violent hate crime being adjudicated in their local court system, going through a judge, a jury, and the whole trial system?
You know, most people will say, well, I can't remember something like that.
I do remember Matthew Shepard 11 years ago.
The truth of the matter is that violent hate crimes against homosexuals or anybody else, especially by whites against Chicanos, homosexuals, are extremely rare.
And this is just a decoy strategy to try to put a sugar coating on this bill.
Let me just briefly tell you what the second bill, the real bill, which we could see introduced at any time by Conyers and Pelosi, actually wants.
Now, in addition to giving the federal government power to put down violent hate crimes in the states, the second bill, H.R. 1592, would include all biased crimes, not just violent physical hate crimes.
It would give federal jurisdiction over all biased crimes, whether intimidation, whether against your person, or even against your property.
It would give, furthermore, the federal government jurisdiction over all felonies in the United States of America.
Now, that's a massive, massive intrusion of federal empowerment in the states.
It would furthermore give the government power to overturn hate crime court cases in the states that didn't please the government.
Let's say we have somebody who's accused.
He's a Christian white male.
He's accused of, let's say, pushing over a drunken homosexual, which is what happened in Illinois last year.
And let's say he's accused of a hate crime, but the fair-minded local judge and jury pronounced the young man innocent.
The federal government doesn't like that.
The government can come in and make that verdict null and void and retry the case until they get the guilty verdict that they want.
This is unprecedented in American history.
Reverend Pike, we're about to have to go to break.
I think we all understand, thanks to your great articulation here, that this is something we have to fight against.
Then I want you to tell us how we can stand together in the gap and fight against this and defeat it again when the political cesspool returns with James Edwards and Bill Rowland right after these words from our sponsors.
Don't go away.
The political cesspool, guys, will be back right after these messages.
We'll return.
Jump in the political cesspool with James and the gang.
Call us tonight at 1-866-986-6397.
And here's the host of the political cesspool, James Edwards.
All right, everybody.
Continuing on tonight with our special guest, Reverend Ted Pike.
You've heard Ted Pike over the course of the last few minutes convey to you exactly what's the latest developments as they pertain to the current incarnation of the federal hate crimes legislation, so-called.
Before we ask Reverend Pike what we can do to stop this, Bill, what do you make of it?
Of course, any of these laws that are going to be passed, if they are passed successfully, of course, it's another nail in the coffin of free speech, of freedom of religion, of freedom of a lot of things.
But of course, they're going to be selectively enforced.
There are not going to be any Latino lesbians tried for hate crimes.
There aren't going to be a lot of people tried for hate crimes.
As you know, as we mentioned earlier in the show, there is an unseen hidden race war in the schools right now between different ethnic groups.
They don't even involve whites.
Not one of those people will be tried for hate crimes.
Involved in violent gang activity in California between Hispanics and blacks.
There are not going to be anyone charged for hate crimes in these wars.
It's going to be normal American Christian white people.
That is who will be charged for hate crimes.
And we're deluding ourselves if we think there's going to be any sort of equitable distribution of hate crimes prosecution.
It won't exist.
It's going to come straight for us.
It's going to come straight for our religion.
It's going to come straight for our freedom of speech.
It's all about shutting down our opinions for fear of going to jail for expressing ourselves, just as the problem exists in Europe.
You say anything about another race, another religion, except for Christianity, of course, and except for Native Europeans, you're going to jail or you're going to be fined.
And I think Reverend Pike agrees with me on that.
Yes, absolutely.
And the basic reason for this is because the Anti-Defamation League, which is a Jewish, a radical Jewish supremacist organization internationally, is very interested in basically suppressing Christians, tearing down our crosses and Ten Commandments, depriving us of our Christian symbols and observances and so on.
This is not a race war.
This is a spiritual battle as the synagogue of Satan is trying to destroy Christian influence in the world.
Well, Reverend Pike, I know you are always very succinct and very in-depth in telling us what we can do to combat this really evil manifestation.
And it has been effective in the past.
Obviously, if it's not broke, don't fix it.
We have, and when I say we, I mean concerned citizens across this country have come up and have slam-dunked this thing, body-slammed it several times in the past.
I grow a little concerned that our people may have become battle-weary.
Are you getting any of that?
Do you sense that our folks have maybe become lethargic in defeating this?
Because as we know, it only has to be passed once.
We can defeat the hate crimes legislation 99 times, and if it gets passed once, it is there to stay, and we will forevermore pay the consequences.
Are people a little bit lackadaisical in their calling of senators and congressmen this time around?
Well, in the broad sense, nationally, the answer is yes.
The big Christian conservative organizations, which I have been counting on to back me up, we're talking about focus on the family, family research council, on and on are not sounding the alarm.
They're not teaching their people about this, and they are not getting calls going into Congress of any magnitude.
On the other hand, listeners to talk radio, many of them are faithfully calling in, but not, I don't believe, nearly the magnitude of we had two years ago.
And of course, this is an open invitation to the Pelosi crowd to move the hate bills forward, seeing that there's not a very great amount of opposition this year.
We are getting a relative trickle of calls going through.
I've been on probably 60 talk show programs since the hate bill was introduced in January, trying to keep at least a smaller amount of calls going in there.
But we really need an avalanche of protest.
The American people have got to wake up that this is going to take away free speech for us, just like it did for Canada in 1971, when the Anti-Defamation League persuaded Canadians, Parliament to adopt their federal hate crimes law.
The same people are behind this.
They're saying the same thing.
They said this will only give the government power to put down violent hate crimes in the states.
But what really will happen is as soon as it's passed, it'll be turned over.
The cases will be turned over to federal judges, liberal judges, who will basically make law broadening this out like they did in Canada.
So really, really quickly, the thing we can do right now is people should first come to truthtellers.org.
We have an excellent 10-minute video there right on the homepage.
Just click on, and this will give you a quick education of the two major hate crimes bills coming through the House Judiciary Committee, plus the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, which is also a hate crimes bill.
In 10 minutes, you'll find out what these hate bills want.
The phone numbers there.
Very briefly, the phone number to your member of the House and Senate is 877-851-6437.
Again, that's 877-851-6437.
And the toll number is 202-225-3121.
Again, that toll number is 202-225-3121.
Just tell them, please don't vote for any kinds of hate crimes legislation.
Now, at truthtellers.org, we also have the names of the 39 crucial House Judiciary members, both Democrats and Republicans, who should be called.
Every American who loves freedom should get those names at truthtellers.org and start calling them.
It'll take about an hour and 45 minutes using your redial function of your phone, but you can do it.
You need to do that this week, maybe before work, maybe during your lunch break.
But we must call them.
We can kill these bills in the House Judiciary Committee.
We can bottle them up if they hear from us very loudly in Washington.
Well, and Ted, you know, people shouldn't be fooled into believing that America has been given some special vaccine that protects us from having to endure what all other, just about all other developed, civilized first world nations have already undertaken.
I mean, as Bill mentioned, people all over the Western world are being thrown in jail for saying anything that goes against the doctrine of political correctness.
America is actually one of the last countries, Christian countries, that has not been subjected to this monstrosity.
And it will happen here unless we are eternally vigilant and are on the watchtowers.
And I tell you, folks, if you enjoyed this show at all, we better make sure these laws don't get passed or me and Ted are going to be out of the job.
Am I right?
Absolutely.
Talk radio, free speech talk radio is extinct in Canada, in European countries already, even on the state level, in California, in Colorado, and so on, even in Pennsylvania.
We have seen some really egregious hate crimes, enforcements, and violations of human rights.
This stuff is spreading like a cancer, and we have got to speak out right now, or we will literally will forever hold our peace.
Because like Roe versus Wade, when this bill is set in concrete by a vote by the Congress, we will have the very most difficult time ever eradicating it.
Well, folks, Ted Pike has made a lot of appearances on this program.
It's not just because we like him and count him a close friend.
He certainly is.
But most importantly, it's because what he said is something that's very important.
It's a message of the utmost urgency.
We have got to rally and go to the front lines and defeat this once again.
And as many times as it takes until God himself calls us home.
Reverend Pike, thanks for being on the show tonight, and thanks for signing the alarm once again.
We hope people take your advice and make these calls.
Thank you so much, James.
Reverend Ted Pike, everybody.
Bill, before we head into the third hour and bring on our good friend Sam Dixon to talk about some other issues, anything you'd like to say in summation of this one?
Well, Ted Pike certainly is right.
I disagree with him on one point, and that is that this is an attack on European Americans because that's the only place hate crimes bills have been passed.
There are no hate crime laws in Indonesia and no hate crime laws in all these other countries in the world where such things would be considered absurd.
There's no hate crime law as far as I know in Japan or China because these people don't grind their own people down to dirt in favor of aliens and abnormal people for the sake of protecting them and using that as an excuse to suppress and oppress their own people.
This is a European phenomenon and it's a urine phenomenon that has been put in motion clearly by the ADL.
And you can be assured that the other things, some of the other things we've talked about on this show, including checkpoint stops, also originate with the ADL or groups like the ADL.
Oh, absolutely.
And inso much as I agree with both of you, certainly it is almost exclusively targeting European Americans.
But then again, Europeans are the primary movers and shakers of Christianity.
So inso much as he said it was a spiritual war, perhaps it is because Europeans are basically the primary people who subscribe to the Christian faith.
But nevertheless, I certainly agree with you as well, Bill.
And it's something I'm telling you, folks.
It's going to affect us all.
It's going to affect our children.
You could literally go to jail for criticizing Obama.
I mean, is that what we want?
Well, that's what we're coming to.
We've got to take another break.
You're really going to like tonight's third hour with Sam Dixon.
Stay tuned, everyone.
The political cesspool continues right after this.
Believe it or not, there's a third hour of tonight's installment of the political cesspool coming your way right after these messages.
Behold the rising sun, and it's been the ruin of many of our war.
