I don't agree with criminalizing emotions. Just actions.
I also think we should get out of the U.N. It never should have been started in the first place.

Run away to where?

I hate globalist satanic luciferian pee doh files and their enablers.

The only regulation we need in this country about Hate Speech and "Fake News" is a leader that won't take it.

Old news from April but very powerful, even though nothing has been done about much of it yet:

While we’re at it, consider the crime of “depriving an individual of his or her Civil Rights”. Before “hate crimes” this was the tool of the left to get someone they couldn’t convict of an actual crime. I can recall this pretext used many times to go after someone found not guilty of a charged crime or where there was not sufficient evidence to charge an individual. It was done mostly by the Feds, and often where they had no real jurisdiction.

We have now edged deeply into the "Anthem" concept, there is no I only we. WE must follow the rule and if I diverge I will be punished. One country one court at a time. One look at the UNESCO Constitution say enough.

there should be no such thing as a hate crime. if it is illegal to beat the tar out of someone, then prosecute for beating the tar out of some one. not for the thoughts of the individual.

It is abundantly clear that this is a totalitarian approach.

Why wouldn't one want all the "inappropriate" thinkers to expose themselves so we know who they are?

Not agreeing with the many who call that tiger over there a cow is now a hate crime... Many will be eaten by cows in a not to distant future. Run Away, run away, run away!!

In reality, it shouldn't matter if a person hates another person or people. Until someone takes action that physically harms another, it should not be a crime. Soon we will become criminals for thinking bad thoughts.

Indeed. Just hating an ideology, not people, is a crime now in some places.

Unfortunately, this is no different from the 3 or 4 people that were supposedly going to kill a bunch of people this week. They were arrested for being accused of possibly going to kill people and they had guns and body armor. When did it become a crime, to not hurt anyone. We are on a very slippery slope.

Indeed, but that fortunately is much harder these days; digital copies abound and are easily hidden from the authorities.

Of course...

Burn the books!- while we're at it...

Yes, indeed, that IS the problem. Attacking belief systems, but only certain ones, is "hate speech."

Thank you, freedomforall..

Thank you for the compliment. I agree that "hate crime" is also a floatong concepts, a crime is a crime.

So if you write or speak against a person for “who they are” that’s now hate speech. But if you write or speak against a person for what they believe in or what they do, that can also be considered hate speech because of “who they are.”
That will teach us not to write or speak, or think.

👍 Thanks for exposing the irrationality of this attack on individual liberty by the state, Vinay.
