Help write an Anti Discrimination bill

Proclaimed by: Toby Nixon
Proclaimed from: Nacogdoches, California

Proclamation...  Seems like every time I turn around, I see more and more people ignoring the fact that we are religious or spiritual and the government doesn't take complaints seriously.
So we have to act on our own and defeat Pagan Discrimination on our own.
That means challenging the political atmosphere that allows them to continue their flat disregard for Pagan, Magickal and like minded traditions.
The atmosphere that allows Children to be taken from their homes, or ignores our rights to worship, take vacation from work on our holidays, display our symbols on our Veterans Gravestones, wear religious symbols to our schools or Public assembly, allows only government money to be given to Christian faith based organizations, that would increase penalties for hate crimes against Pagans, set guidelines for administration in Jails, schools and government, while tearing away at the Draconian profiling befalling those who believe in Magick.
With your help, we can write a bill that will make those responsible for discrimination to be held reponsible. That will bring attention to the problems that we face as a Pagan Community.
Such a bill would strengthen Americas attitude of diversity in a time when we so desperately need it. It would strengthen our moral values of pluralism.
A bill would have to outline specific or rather under very specific conditions what a belief in magick is and out line certain religions such as Wicca, Pagan, Shamanism, Satanism, and others, to compare as to the type of belief systems that would be covered under this law.
It would have to be specific what types of discrimination are to these sets of beliefs.
It would have to be specific as to the punishment for the actions.
It would have to have a specific timetable as well 10 or 20 years I suppose.
It wouldn't even have to be complicated.
