Yeah, Count Dankula, 100% true. He did it to piss off his girlfriend who thought the dog could do no wrong so he wanted it to look as evil as possible. So it wasn't even a pro-Nazi thing. Quite the opposite.
Then you have the teenaged girl, Chelsea Russell, who paid a tribute to her friend who'd died in a car crash by posting lyrics to his favourite song on Instagram. It was a Snoop Dogg song, which included the N-word. This was classed as a hate crime for which she got a £500 fine, was placed under an 8 week curfew and given a criminal record. Scary, ah? |

Yeah, the queen's fair game. She represents everything that those promoting these laws hate, so she gets no protection at all.
Here's a graphic breakdown of how it works, from the government's own website ... ![]() So violence and damage to property is pretty easy to establish, but how to you properly legislate for hostility, harassment or intimidation? Especially when you're talking about stuff posted on social media, when the person reporting it doesn't even have to be the person or persons it was intended for. All they have to have done is read it. And it doesn't matter if the person posting it never meant to offend or be hostile to anyone. So long as the person who reads it is offended, that's enough. Which was exactly what happened to Chelsea Russell. |

Here's the police's official definition of a hate crime:
Any criminal offence which is perceived by the victim or any other person, to be motivated by hostility or prejudice, based on a person's disability or perceived disability; race or perceived race; or religion or perceived religion; or sexual orientation or perceived sexual orientation or transgender identity or perceived transgender identity. The key words there are 'perceived' and 'or any other person'. |

It get's better. Here's their definition of hostility:
There is no legal definition of hostility so we use the everyday understanding of the word which includes ill-will, spite, contempt, prejudice, unfriendliness, antagonism, resentment and dislike. So anyone who's a vocal atheist and shows contempt for a religion is essentially a criminal. Just as anyone who adheres to core tenets of their religion and thinks that, say, homosexuality is a sin, is also a criminal. And you may as well throw every comedian in jail, just to save time. You tell me. |

The amendments have expanded the amount of groups protected and types of 'speech', which now includes social media. Before that it was difficult to police because spoken words are hard to prove in court, but a statement on social media, even if it's just a 'like' on facebook, is concrete evidence. That was the point when it started getting really scary.

Dunno about skinheads but I read somewhere it had something to do with football fans so, in a roundabout way maybe. But I wouldn't say it was a motivatig factor. More a way of getting it through parliament. Heysel happened the year before and football fans were easy law and order scapegoats. |

anyway i watched the nazi dog video, which has been mirrored for posterity. the “sieg heil” bit actually made me laugh, it was so silly, but the repetition of “gas the jews” was insensitive and in terrible taste and not funny at all. however, failed humor and insensitivity and bad taste should not be a crime. i would rather call him a stupid motherfucker or satirize him than arrest and fine him. but that’s how your legal system operates.

i see. well i suppose that protesting about universities is a bit short sighted here. you have a much bigger problem, which is the social acquiescence to limit the marketplace of ideas “for the greater good” or whatever. the fact that this limitation has now reached the universities is just one effect of those larger currents. by protesting it in isolation you’re now trying to cover the sun with one finger. too late if you ask me. first they came for the football fans and i said nothing... so, do you have any non-nazi politicians trying to protect free speech and free thought? or are your free speech advocates just nazis trying to get a platform? |

None of the actual politicians appeal but everything's focused on Brexit right now and they're all positioning themselves in relation to that, so it's anyone's guess where most of them stand on anything else.

I know some people can be really literal when it comes to 'absolutes'. Generally I'd say anything goes unless there's a really good common sense reason why it shouldn't.
