We Hear You: The Equality Act and the LGBT Agenda
Ken McIntyre / @KenMac55 / May 05, 2019
Editor’s note: The Daily Signal’s audience had much to say about our coverage of House Democrats’ Equality Act, which would create civil rights protections based on sexual orientation and gender identity rather than simply sex. A sampling leads off this week’s mailbag. You may write us at letters@dailysignal.com.—Ken McIntyre
Dear Daily Signal: Other than the usual protections of property and people (against violence and assault), there is no basis for granting special protection for transsexual behavior, the subject of the hearing on the Equality Act covered by Rachel del Guidice (“5 Key Moments From Equality Act Hearingâ€).
It is a whole different question than protecting people because of their innate qualities such as skin color. Passage of this legislation will severely damage other rights that we possess in the realms of free expression, religious faith, privacy, and more.
Finally, there is no imaginable way that the framers of the 14th Amendment would see that it would extend to the protection of behavior then considered insane, perverse, and immoral, as it remains for a great many people today.
