More Hate Crimes Legislation

The video below is from the Glenn Beck program. It covers newly proposed legislation against cyber hate crimes that undeniably conflicts with the Constitution in terms of free speech and potentially the 5th Amendment’s protection against double jeopardy.

The bill reads:

“Whoever transmits in interstate or foreign commerce any communication, with the intent to coerce, intimidate, harass, or cause substantial emotional distress to a person, using electronic means to support severe, repeated, and hostile behavior, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.”
