Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022 - Read OP

Again - i know.

Unless you're saying he threatened to prosecute people before the law came in, this doesn't make any sense...?

'Taken to task' is not a synonym for prosecuting.

This is not even close to evidence of or inclination to abuse.

Good night.

Yeah. It literally is hopping up and down about...... nothing

The amendment from by PBP to include the UN Convention on Human Rights protections on Free Speech within the Hate Speech bill, has been defeated.

As well as one to excise the section allowing for the prosecution of individuals possessing offensive material without communicating it.

These were two amendments that would have made the law less extreme and yet were voted down.

Several weeks ago Minister for Justice Simon Harris stated ‘Migration status’ may be added as a protected category under the law. So literally criminalizing those who oppose the government on migration. Instead of dealing with the out-of-control migrant system Ireland has, they want to simply criminalize Irish people for talking about the out-of-control migrant issue and everything that follows. It's almost as if the Government is changing draft laws on the fly depending on who they want to find guilty on a given day if this is the direction theyre going.

Bebo wasn’t reality before neither is TikTok now. Least of all when there are charlatans around, state run troll farms and the whole thing is owned by the CCP

I've a question. If I'm in possession of a meme that most people would consider offensive, would I be committing a crime under this new legislation?

“LGB” community you mean the anti-trans segment of the LGBTQ community? We had a similar user peddle them before

I'd say there is an extremely obvious connection. Trans people are subject to the exact same abuse and prejudices that gay people had to go through for something they have no control over. Homosexuality isn't "normal". Children/teenagers should never be taught about homosexuality, they'll never understand it/it's not necessary/they don't need to know about it/we don't want to encourage them/homosexuality is a cult. Gay men can't be trusted around children, they need to segregated from them, shouldn't be allowed in changing rooms with children.

Please don't try to gatekeep the LGB community.

Like the LGB community, the T community is mostly people who want to live their lives in as much comfort as possible without having to look over their shoulder - it's the extremists that give them a bad name. It's also gotten to the point where people are reading the T as trans-activists and therein lies the problem...

Have you ever noticed how most of the extreme trans-activists aren't actually trans themsevles..?
