I watched some Law & Order UK and I noticed that during their equivalent of the Miranda rights they say, "You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence."

I was absolutely horrified when I heard that. And that's not even getting into the hate speech laws.

Holy shit if that isn't a fear tactic to get someone.

Hate speech laws just a fancy way of saying heresy.

Zero. We there.

Look to the north at Canada, where saying anything that might promote hatred towards an identifiable group is criminal.

How does democracy work if you can't speak? It doesn't and they haven't been counting the votes anyway, the curtain is just opening up a bit to reveal the prison bars.

Unless they are Muslims or from the middle east, then hop on the hate train!!

By the end of Hillary's term we would have had speech laws. We dodged a bullet.

Evil laws require evil police. Don't kid yourself, those laws are coming here... And the cops will faithfully crack skulls.

Money is a helluva thing. That's why jews prefer to go after money as a means to obtaining power.

I'm pretty sure that meteors will fall from the sky before the First Amendment is in any chance of being eliminated, and if everything fails, the planet will end before Japan touches their free speech clause.

Just extensions of the "Holocaust deniers" laws ...

Prevent the right of questioning, it's easy to block the next problem. ;-)
