Christian Heritage NZ leader Ewen McQueen said today that any proposal to introduce “hate speech” legislation was really just an attempt to stifle public debate on the issue of homosexuality. It was no coincidence that it was being raised at this time when the Civil Unions and Relationships bills were being pushed through Parliament. He commented:
“Opponents of this legislation are often falsely accused of being “hateful” by those advocating for state recognition of homosexuality. Now those promoting these bills want to try and close down the debate by advocating “hate speech” legislation. It’s a direct attack on freedom of speech by people who are determined to silence any view that doesn’t endorse homosexuality.”
