Prosecutor George Shelley said Dunn had posted three separate images. The first one showed a group of men, Asian in appearance, at Egremont crab fair 2025, with the caption: “Coming to a town near you.”
The second also showed a group of men, Asian in appearance leaving a boat on to Whitehaven beach. This, said Mr Shelley, had the caption: “When it’s on your turf, then what?”
A final image showed a group of men, again Asian in appearance, wielding knives in front of the Palace of Westminster. There was also a crying white child in a Union flag T-shirt. This was also captioned, said Mr Shelley, with the wording: “Coming to a town near you.”

The UK has passed laws (or at least Scotland has, the rest of the UK is due to follow) that means you can be reported to the police for a hate crime incident for comments you make in your own home.
In recent weeks, the UK has had a number of random stabbing incidents of women and girls.
Abusive behaviour comments, both online and in real life, of women and girls are very common, including threatening ones. Yet the law very much support protecting people of a certain religious persuasion, while the Legislature ignores far more serious attacks and refuses to address them in a similar way.

Walz wants this in the US. He is anti free-speech and very adamant about it.

Very good. Looking forward to reporting all the hate speech against trans women here. I think many can look forward to months in prison

I saw the last of those mentioned memes and while in incredibly poor taste, I think this sets a dangerous precedent.
I made and posted an AI generated image of Nigel Farage in a small boat, with a team of snipers and a sub machine gun guarding the coast.
By the above logic I could be deemed a criminal, a frightening thought.

Kamala would definitely do the same here.

A 61 year old man jailed for 18 months for shouting 'Who the F is Allah?'
UK prison system was already on the point of collapsing due to overcrowding, so not sure how this can be maintained. Presumably by releasing hundreds of violent thugs and Islamic terrorists early.

What's the problem? He pleaded guilty. He had the chance to go for a jury trial and opted out.

So what is a "hate crime"? Whatever some left winger determines it to be?

Because if you plead not guilty you risk losing bail and getting remanded in custody for 4 months
