For instance, under this law in Scotland, a comedian who makes a joke about Islam (ie. Billy Connolly's classic joke "I'm only gonna tell you this once") can be arrested on stage for simply making a JOKE about religion because it offends a member of the crowd, or even offends someone watching it on the television or a dvd, or on KZhead. You can't even make a joke in your OWN HOME about islam and be protected from prosecution, if someone in or outside your house claims you have offended them, they can have you arrested and it would be enough for the police to get a warrant to enter your house, search everything in it and arrest you.

You cant give the government the power to police normal speach. If we do that we are not far off from tyranny. I do think there should be laws against inciting violence against people of a specific group. Whatever group it may be. But I dont think we should have laws against "blasphemous" speech. And I think the law needs to be careful about ensuring that there is proof that someone was inciting violence and not just saying offensive things. For example... we cant have people opening up class rooms teaching racist hateful idealogy. And just say call that free speech.. if they are teaching children to believe that all people of a certain group are evil and should be exterminated for example. That should not be legal. I also think peadophilic speach should be illegal. But other than that I think its ridiculous to arrest someone because they said something offensive.

In fact, I'm acquainted with a few young people who are grappling with these matters. They are earnest in their identities, their quest for acceptance, and their aspiration to evade bullying, violence, or hatred.

  • Kevin Maguire's being a little cute with his details there. It's true that the SNP said misgendering wouldn't be a crime. Siobhian Brown said it. But later she said that it would be investigated and would be up to police whether to record it as a "non-crime hate incident", which is a hideous construct and negatively impacts someone even if they don't break the law. So despite JK Rowling's stand against it, it's still not clear where the line is here for criminality or for those pernicious "non-crime punishable offences". We can only hope the SNP are kicked out asap and replaced with someone who will remove these vile laws.

Remember, that this is despite you remaining fully legal. There's no way for you to defend yourself against the accusation of feeling negative emotion, and no evidence needs to be presented, merely someone else saying they think that's what you felt, and really, what evidence could be presented?
