Religious hatred bill published: BBC

[emad]

Controversial plans to make incitement to religious hatred illegal have been unveiled by the government.

The new offence gives equal protection to all faiths. Jews and Sikhs are already covered by race hate laws.

Critics say the reintroduced plans - which cover words or behaviour intended or likely to stir up religious hatred - will stifle free speech.

Ministers insist the new law would not affect "criticism, commentary or ridicule of faiths".

1. So us queers who believe the Bible doesn't condemn them to hell

would have an action against our 'legalized' hate groups like AFA and Focus on Everyone Else's Family? Wow, wouldn't it be nice if our congresscritters valued all people here in the US like they do in the UK? Funny, but seems like the whole 'taxation without representation' arguement was used by the US against Britian, once upon a time.
