I happened to look at a web page this weekend that is rather chilling. It’s published by the Metropolitan Police in London, U.K. Here is a screenshot:
“If someone does something that isn’t a criminal offence but the victim, or anyone else, believes it was motivated by prejudice or hate, we would class this as a ‘hate incident’. Though what the perpetrator has done may not be against the law, their reasons for doing it are. This means it may be possible to charge them with an offence.”
So all it takes is for “someone” to say they heard you say “something” and they “think” what you said was motivated by “hate.”
Justin Trudeau is just gonna LOVE this.
Creepy stuff…
