The London police now have a firm definition of thought-crime
And they’re going to use it
From the UK Met Police website, here is the latest official attempt to censor speech. It’s actually more than that. Read carefully while pointing a fan at the screen to disperse the noxious fumes:
“If someone does something that isn’t a criminal offence but the victim, or anyone else, believes it was motivated by prejudice or hate, we would class this as a ‘hate incident’. Though what the perpetrator has done may not be against the law, their reasons for doing it are. This means it may be possible to charge them with an offence.”
Really.
It—an action or statement—isn’t a crime, but the perpetrator’s reasons for “doing it” may spring from hatred—and then it turns into a crime. Magic.
Phi Beta Iota: We do not make this shit up. Scotland Yard ignored pedophilia for centuries, now it is going after “thoughts” that are not crimes but can be redefined as crimes.
