> >>As you have all probably heard about in detail, a tragic event happened
> >>nearly a year ago, on October 6 1998, outside Laramie, Wyoming. Matthew
> >>Shepard, a 21-year-old University of Wyoming student, was tortured,
> >>beaten,and left tied to a pole in the freezing cold. Six days later, he
>died
> >>of his wounds in Poudre Valley Hospital, Fort Collins, Colorado.
> >>Matthew was murdered because he was gay and because he was a prominent
> >>andcharismatic member of the gay and lesbian student group on campus.
> >>
> >>Right now Wyoming and Colorado have no anti-hate crime laws; the state
> >>legislature in Wyoming has voted down anti-bias bills for each of the
> >>past three years. There is an effort in Wyoming and Colorado to enact
>Matthew
> >>Shepard Laws, which would strongly punish the perpetrators of hate
> >>crimes.
> >>
> >>This petition demands the broadening of federal anti-hate crime law.
> >>
> >>Opening Statement: "We state strongly that violence on the basis of
> >>sexual orientation, race or gender is wrong, is evil, is reprehensible."
> >>
> >>John Buehren, President of The Unitarian Universalist speaks for
> >>Unitarian Universalists, but his words are reflected in the hearts of
>people
> >>everywhere who believe we must speak out, take action against, and
> >>condemn hate crimes in all their ugly forms.
> >>
> >>A resolution follows:
> >>WHEREAS: We affirm and promote the inherent worth and dignity of every
> >>person.
> >>WHEREAS: We commend the efforts of those individuals who dedicate their
> >>lives to causes of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.
> >>
> >>THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED: That we hereby urge the passage of The Hate
> >>Crimes Prevention Act (HCPA), H.R.3081 and S.1529. The Hate Crimes
> >>Prevention Act (HCPA), H.R.3081 and S.1529, would amend current federal
> >>law (which permits federal prosecution of a hate crime only if the crime
>was
> >>motivated by bias based on religion, national origin, or color) to
> >>include real or perceived sexual orientation, gender, and disability so
> >the FBI
> >>would be able to investigate and prosecute violent hate crimes against
> >>gays, lesbians, and bisexuals.
> >>Under this bill, hate crimes that cause death or bodily injury because
>of
> >>prejudice can be investigated federally, regardless of whether the
> >>victim was exercising a federally protected right. The only way that
>our
> >>representatives can be aware of the base of support or this change to
> >>the current law is by making our voices heard.
> >>
> >>Please add your name to this petition and forward it, so that it can
> >>then be forwarded to the President of The United States; the Vice
>President
> >>of the United States; and our United States Senators and House Members.

> >>1. This petition is being passed around the Internet. Please add your
> >>name to it so that we can have tougher laws against all hate crimes.
>Please
