Re:
Tiger, if this was solely about religious hate crimes and encouraging peace, I'd be all for it. However, as it stands, this act goes too far by encroaching on the freedom of speech built into our Constitution.

Well I'm all for it! While it is primarily there to put an end to the West making a bad reputation of Islam with it's media (and E&C Forums, *cough*ahem*), it also helps in many other parts of the world, as being against a religion isn't just about Islam there.
