| Dear Mr. *******, Thank you for contacting me regarding H.R. 5611, the Homeland Safety and Security Act. I value your opinion and appreciate the time you took to contact me. Rep. Kevin McCarthy introduced H.R. 5611 on July 1, 2016. This legislation is aimed at preventing terrorists from attacking the United States and obtaining passports. If enacted, the bill would do the following: · Establish within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) the Office for Partnerships to Prevent Terrorism (OPPT) to coordinate DHS efforts to prevent terrorism and radicalization associated with Islamist terrorist networks. · Allow the Department of Justice (DOJ) to delay for up to three business days firearm or explosive sales to persons listed on the federal terrorism or no-fly watch lists as a known or suspected terrorist (or those so listed in the last five years). · Direct the FBI to annually review the terrorist screening database to determine whether the identity of each listed individual is correct. · Prevent the State Department from issuing a passport to, and revoke a passport from, any individual who is affiliated with a foreign terrorist organization or who has aided, abetted, or given material support to such an organization. While H.R. 5611 includes some good provisions to strengthen our homeland security against Islamist terrorism, I am opposed to the bill in its current form. First, the bill does nothing that addresses the root causes of homegrown terrorism. Second, the bill infringes upon both the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms and Fifth Amendment due process protections. H.R. 5611 gives the Attorney General unilateral power to deny Second Amendment rights based on inclusion on the Terrorist Watch List. This list has proved error-prone and unreliable, having erroneously included law-abiding citizens and even members of Congress in the past. While this gun control proposal may be well-meaning, it is misguided. Additional gun control measures will fail to solve the problem of Islamist terrorism and the type of violence perpetrated in Orlando, San Bernardino, and Ft. Hood. The real issue is that ISIS and other Islamist terror organizations have declared war against the United States, Israel, Europe, and Western civilization in general. Instead of pivoting to politically-motivated attacks on the Second Amendment, Congress should stop accepting unknown refugees from high-risk, terror-prone countries, deport foreigners suspected of terrorism, reverse the Obama Administration's politically correct "countering violent extremism" policies, secure the southern border, and revoke the citizenship of convicted terrorists who are U.S. citizens. Pushing gun control and validating constitutionally dubious secret watch lists is the wrong path. I will continue my efforts to concurrently protect the Second Amendment and take real steps toward keeping Americans safe from Islamist extremist terrorism. | |||

ABC-Disney producer's stated goal is to normalize sodomy
Executive producer Adam Horowitz tells EW. “Our goal is to make it as we see it in the real world, just as normal and as a part of every day life as it should be.”

ABC's "Once Upon a Time" introduced a lesbian couple during this week's episode which 1MM and parents find completely unnecessary. On the other hand, the producers said the inclusion of homosexuality in a show popular with kids was "important." Many families watch the program based on beloved children's fairytales, but unfortunately, ABC has distorted and twisted the storylines in these fables.
In Sunday's (April 17) episode, named "Ruby Slippers," classic fairytale characters continue to push the envelope as Ruby from "Little Red Riding Hood" and Dorothy from "The Wizard of Oz" lock lips and introduce the show's first LGBTQ couple.
In a series of flashbacks, a romance brews between the two women. A sleeping curse leads Ruby to bestow true love's kiss on Dorothy to wake her. One kiss breaks the spell, but many follow in a brief make out session as the munchkins from Oz watch.
"Once Upon a Time" is a far from innocent fairytale entangling favorite Disney characters in a new, modern storyline. When it debuted in 2011 it was called "the most family-friendly drama on any broadcast network in the past ten years" and Common Sense Media rated it for children 12 and up.
So naturally, with its family-friendly 8:00 pm ET/7:00 pm CT Sunday night time slot, it attracts younger viewers and parents who still think of Disney as wholesome. Of course, 1MM knows that Disney has not been wholesome for some time and, once again, they are purposefully pushing a gay agenda.
"True Love's kiss has been a staple of this show since the beginning. This past Sunday's episode was just another example of how in a fairytale, as in life, love is love," co-creators Adam Horowitz and Eddy Kitsis said in a statement about the LGBTQ storyline. Horowitz added that the storyline will be as "exciting, emotional, and heartfelt as any other love story."
"Once Upon a Time's" executive producers have also said their gay advocacy is "important to do" and something that needs to be "normalized," not "marginalized." Last year, when hinting the coming storyline, they said, "It (the LGBTQ relationship) is something we think is due and important to do on the show. This is the world we live in." The producers repeated the mantra "love is love" and again admitted that their goal was to normalize and push gay relationships "as a part of everyday life."
Homosexuality continues to be over-represented in the media because producers want people, and especially kids, to think it's normal and everyday life. In reality, that is their fairytale.
