Section 3: "A person who uses threatening words or behaviour, or displays any written material which is threatening, is guilty of an offence if he intends thereby to stir up religious hatred."

Yeah, I agree. I wrote that if he had directed his statements at Muslims, as an example, he’d have run afoul of those laws.

And the people who will decide whether or not you intended to stir up religious hatred are the same clowns who did this: quote: In 2017, 19-year old Croxteth resident Chelsea Russell quoted a line from Snap Dogg's song "I'm Trippin'" on her Instagram page. The line, which read "Kill a snitch ****, rob a rich ****", was copied from a friend's page as part of a tribute to Frankie Murphy who was killed in a car accident at age 13.[38][39] Hate crime investigators were alerted to the presence of the slur and charged Russell with "sending a grossly offensive message by means of a public electronic communications network". Defence lawyer Carole Clarke stated that she received a request from one of the arresting officers that the word "****", the subject of the trial, not be used in court.[40] In April 2018, District Judge Jack McGarva found Russell guilty and delivered a sentence which included a £585 fine, a curfew and an ankle monitoring bracelet.[41] However, Russell's conviction was overturned by Liverpool Crown Court on 21 February 2019.[42]

Yeah, I agree. I wrote that the UK laws are outrageous.

Have you seen the demographics of Manchester recently?

Add in the leftist whites and the moderates who just go along to be left alone and the answer is no.

I missed the "what HE said" part, so I accept your example.

However, they may very well choose to construe "immigrants" with a protected class.

I think it's ridiculous we are parsing language to defend the language laws of the UK.

He's talking about immigrants and everybody knows who he really means. Who's to say that wasn't a dog whistle?

Oh, I know, it's the same people that prosecuted a teenager for quoting Snoop Dog.

And not one person will explain why it’s necessary. Because it objectively is making the West worse.

The usual suspects are losing their minds because of what he said, which is true by the way. One of my bucket list items has been to travel to the UK to watch a match but that dream is quickly fading due to shape the UK is in now.

After being found charged and found guilty with an unknown legal bill. All that does is prove that there's a shite-ton of subjectivity built into England's hate speech laws and they can be and will be abused.

You have to wonder what happened in the UK since Thatcher.

They have stopped reproducing and are simply importing bodies, most of which are unskilled and can't support themselves. And their politicians seem to be just fine with this arrangement.

In what room does a collection of "leaders" decide that this is a positive course of action?

Their Football Association is going to investigate his remarks and possibly force him to sell. Just my two cents, they are ate up with wokeism in the UK.

If you visit large cities, yes. Bad things tend to happen with humanity when we hit a certain critical mass, and that's even with a somewhat homogeneous culture. Take all of the downsides to an Atlanta or Louisville and throw in another 20% from third world countries with vastly different values.

It ain't pretty.
