Hate Crime.
It’s not a real thing. It’s just a way to censor the masses.
But in the U.K. it’s emphatically enforced!
And what constitutes a ‘hate crime’?
Saying a joke about anyone from the protected lgbtq+aeiou group is one. And posting it on Facebook will land you in prison. (If you’re over there, best not to post this article on FB).
Another ‘hate crime’ is quoting the Bible in public.
Christian Post reports:
British police have escalated their actions against Christian street preachers in Uxbridge, London, threatening arrests over allegations of hate crimes and violations of anti-social behavior laws. The crackdown follows the enforcement of a Public Spaces Protection Order by the London Borough of Hillingdon, aimed at regulating activities in Uxbridge Town Centre.
ADVERTISEMENTThe Metropolitan Police targeted Christian missionaries, including Pastor Dwayne Lopez, for preaching from the Bible on Uxbridge High Street, the U.K.-based group Christian Concern reported.
The incident, captured on video last week, was prompted by a public complaint about the content of their preaching, specifically citing verses from 1 Corinthians 6. The police cited the PSPO, questioning the preachers about their awareness of the order and its restrictions, including the prohibition of amplification.
The confrontation was part of a broader pattern of incidents where Christian preachers faced police action for their activities in public spaces. Previously, gospel singer Harmonie London was ordered to stop singing “Amazing Grace” on Oxford Street, with police claiming that Christian music was not permitted outside church premises. The exchange between the officer and Harmonie was captured on video and the recording was uploaded to her YouTube channel.
Having seen some of the video, an officer clearly says that it is a hate crime to read from the bible.
Please confirm that this officer has been offered correctional training. Otherwise, you are absolutely guilty of a Christian crackdown. https://t.co/IEjQNSxNoM

I wonder what would of happened if this guy was from another religion and was peaceably putting a handy utensil into others without their expressed permission.
But if he was Islamic and sliced someone’s throat while screaming allah something, something bar. They’d say they were investigating the motive. #Hate crimes were defined by #leftist who hate free speech but #love #chaos . https://t.co/55H8tnm2VW

And this is from last summer:
This isn’t the first time UK police fascists have arrested a Christian street preacher who was simply reading the holy Bible in public 😡 pic.twitter.com/Aa7On3FqRH
