Scotland's Hate Crime Law Begins

[Rev.Cambeul]

Another point is people need to consider is that this law can be applied to anyone, anywhere in the world. If someone in Scotland is offended by what you said at your kitchen table with your friends and family, and they somehow get to know about it, then you can be deported to Scotland and be imprisoned for seven years under Scottish Hate Crime Law.

Don't believe it? The newly minted eSafety Commissioner in Australia has fined Elon Musk near a million bucks because of a Tweet that the Australian eSafety Commissioner has decided is offensive. The Tweet was posted by somebody that lives in North America (US or Canada) and so-called misgendered some dog-fucking tranny that works for the UN. What does that have to do with the Australian eSafety Commissioner? Well, it broke Australian Misinformation Law. That's IT!

So, beware what you say at your kitchen table and what you sing in the shower, because Scotland's HEAD PAKI IN CHARGE (HPIC) may be listening!

A family text or a dinner table joke are enough to get you jailed in the SNP's Orwellian new Scotland. I'll be standing my ground with JK Rowling, writes STEPHEN DAISLEY

People prosecuted for words uttered in the privacy of their own home. The police turned into a political harassment unit for fringe activists. 'Hate' records kept on law-abiding citizens who have committed no crime.

It might sound like something from the pages of Orwell or Kafka but dystopian fiction is about to become a lot less fictional in Scotland.

The Hate Crime Act comes into force today, the brainchild of Humza Yousaf from his time as justice secretary. The legislation, which crowns a quarter century of Holyrood banning and nannying, is an audacious incursion into the spheres of conscience and expression.

A better title would be the Watch What You Say Act of 2024, for this sinister law is set to have a chilling effect on speech across a range of issues.

By 'speech', I mean everything. Anything you post on Twitter or Facebook. An email you send. A conversation in a restaurant or at a bus stop or over the phone. That private family WhatsApp group you're in? It's not private from this law. It will cover columns I write in this newspaper and letters you write to this newspaper. Stand-up comedy routines, and even lines read by actors performing plays, will come under scrutiny.

And, yes, it will include conversations you have around your dinner table. When the Bill was going through the Scottish parliament, Humza Yousaf was asked why there was no 'dwelling defence'. That safeguard, present in similar legislation, essentially protects you from prosecution for what you say in your home.

Yousaf said: 'Are we comfortable giving a defence to somebody whose behaviour is threatening or abusive which is intentionally stirring up hatred against Muslims? Are we saying that that is justified because that is in the home?'

When Conservative MSPs tried to add a dwelling defence, their amendment was voted down.

The Hate Crime Act comes forth in measured-sounding legalese but it is another glimpse at the face of woke totalitarianism, an imposition by progressive tyrants hellbent on cowing and criminalising every last word and idea they disagree with.

The Act creates an offence of 'stirring up hatred' against a litany of 'protected characteristics'. How many is a litany? This many: 'Race, colour, nationality (including citizenship), or ethnic or national origins... age, disability, religion or in the case of a social or cultural group, perceived religious affiliation, sexual orientation, transgender identity [or] variations in sex characteristics'.

Words or behaviour relating to race will be liable for prosecution if 'a reasonable person' would consider them 'threatening, abusive or insulting'. Where an accused did not intend to stir up hatred, he or she can still be convicted if it is found to be a likely outcome.

For all the other characteristics, the standard is 'threatening or abusive' - insults won't be enough - and the Crown will have to prove intent. The right to attack and ridicule religious beliefs is written into the legislation, but no right to do the same with other categories such as sexual orientation or transgender identity.

'Transgender', in the wording of the Act, is defined so broadly that it includes people who cross dress. One protected characteristic left noticeably unprotected is sex. The Scottish Government is addressing that in separate legislation. Under the Hate Crime Act, it will not be a crime to stir up hatred against women as a group but it will be a crime to stir up hatred against men who dress as women.

Which brings us to the matter of punishment. We're not talking about a slap on the wrist here. If you are convicted of a hate crime in a sheriff court, you face a fine and up to 12 months in prison. If they drag you before a high court, you'll be looking at a fine and as long as seven years inside.

Don't delude yourself that this is all a fuss over nothing. That, since the police no longer investigate all low-level crimes, they're hardly about to open a case into every nasty remark. That is exactly what they intend to do. As a Police Scotland spokesman said last month: 'Hate crime and discrimination of any kind is deplorable and entirely unacceptable and we will investigate every report.'

The public is right to be alarmed over this legislation. They need look only at the performance of the police lately to see where things are heading.

In the fight against hate crimes, Police Scotland is not having a good war so far. Its advertising campaign, featuring a furry creature called the Hate Monster, was widely derided and later quietly deleted from the force's website.

Its public information materials link hate offending to 'young men aged 18-30' who have 'feelings of being socially and economically disadvantaged combined with ideas about white-male entitlement'.

Police Scotland wouldn't dream of such crude racial profiling when discussing other offences and other demographics, but it is a very helpful insight into institutional attitudes within the force.

A young white man who is threatened, abused or insulted because of his race might wonder whether it is worth reporting the incident to a police force that sees him as the problem. Ideology poisons policing and ideological policing poisons the relationship between the police and the public.

Rowling posted: 'Lovely Scottish lass and convicted double rapist Isla Bryson found her true authentic female self shortly before she was due to be sentenced. Misgendering is hate, so respect Isla's pronouns, please. Love the leggings!'

The author told her followers that each of the trans women she had included in her thread 'aren't women at all, but men, every last one of them'. She went on to accuse the Scottish Parliament of having placed 'higher value on the feelings of men performing their idea of femaleness, however misogynistically or opportunistically, than on the rights and freedoms of actual women and girls'.

Rowling added that, although she is currently outside the UK, if her posts qualified as an offence under the Hate Crime Act, 'I look forward to being arrested when I return to the birthplace of the Scottish Enlightenment'.

Which leaves all of us with a choice. Do we fall silent and self-censor or do we stand our ground and say, like John Milton: 'Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to argue freely according to conscience, above all liberties'? I'm with Milton — and JK Rowling. I intend to go on writing and saying what I think, whatever the consequences, until this freedom-squelching abomination is consigned to the legislative wastepaper bin.

'ME & 48,000 ON SUNDAY WILL BREACH IT' ALLY MCCOIST BLASTS NEW SCOTLAND HATE CRIME BILL

Scotland's new Anti-White Hate Crime Law is Sharia Law. Islamic anti-Blasphemy Law tarted up as Social Justice.

Any Muslim can call for the murder of Jews, Whites and Fags. It's his Islamic Right to Jihad. But if a White or even a fair-minded-Fag expresses a mild dislike for Islam, that's Islamophobia. And it's CLANG! You're locked up! The only people that profit from these laws are Jews and Muslims: The untouchable Semitic Brothers in Arms.

Scotland's Head Paki In Charge/HPIC Cops the Majority of Complaints Under His Own Law
Meanwhile, Ireland's HPIC quits. England's HPIC & London's HPIC say "Meh."

Scotland's HPIC, Hamzah Useless, declared that anyone that has a complaint about his ANTI-WHITE speech is FAR RIGHT. In the UK, just the act of being declared FAR RIGHT is enough to have you raided, charged, found guilty and imprisoned for five years for the HATE CRIME of teaching your dog to shake hands - AND NO, I'M NOT JOKING THERE!
