Scotland's new hate crime law could be used to 'settle scores'
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 мар 2024
- On 1 April, a new hate crime law will be introduced in Scotland. The rules will apply in people's private homes and online.
The legislation criminalises threatening or abusive behaviour based on characteristics including age, disability, sexual orientation and transgender identity.
There are fears innocent people could end up on police databases with controversial new hate crime laws in Scotland being weaponised to "settle scores".

What about the first ministers own Adress, : White, White, White,White! ? Isnt that a Hate Crime?
Yes, when he was saying this, his face was full of hatred.
100% I say let’s go for him first. I’m Scottish Pakistani btw and I don’t agree with anything that he said. I felt it was racist and completely unacceptable
The emphasis was on the h so it was wHite as if he needed to spit something putrid out of his mouth.
@@edda682 One hell of an angry man. His contempt of Israel and hatred of white people says it all. Not unpredictable at all.
Exactly, he’s clearly racist
Scotland used to be a tough old place... where tough, stoic people were built.
Now it's a nanny state... run by a bunch of anxiety filled neurotics.
Unfortunately it’s far worse than a nanny state.
The Hate Crime and Public Order Act was supported by the Labour, Liberal, Green and SNP political parties in the Scottish parliament.
The vote was 82 MSPs for and 32 MSPs against with 4 abstentions.
The bill became Law on 23 April 2021.
Get that unelected leader out
Charge humza first
Hmm Humza the racist.
White white white
@Shaun-dy1zr Humza said it first.
It will make Scotland less tolerant, not more.
It looks like something out of George Orwell's 1984. So we now know what an independent Scotland would look like, a totalitarian state. Who in their right mind would vote for the SNP or independence after this?
The largest complaint behind the iron curtain was the feeling of isolation... Welcome to the new bloc comrade!

According to the UK government's own website, a petition with 10,000 signatures will see the government respond. If it gets 100,000 signatures, parliament will consider debating the topic. Maybe someone should start a petition to challenge this new Hate Crime Bill?
they had no problem blocking the scottish gender id b*ll*cks, but strangely they have let this fly 🤔 maybe they like the idea
Maybe the Scottish people should demand an election now.
Good luck with that, 450000 signed a petition in Wales to reverse the 20 mph speed limits… they are still there.. Our Governments just don’t care what the people want..

"Law and Order"
"Wrong-Think Division"
What if I hate Humza? Not for his race, but because he’s useless at his job and just wants to arrest his opponents.
In a few days that will be illegal.
I hate him for his race, because he hates me for mine. And I belong here.
Straight to jail.

I don't think that the Britnat Labour and Liberal Democrats hate the English.
Even the SNP and Green don't hate the English people.
They want their independence from Westminster with its 533 English Westminster MPs that control Scotland. Like 62 other countries like New Zealand, Canada, Australia and the Republic of Ireland who gained their independence from Westminster and celebrate their independence day.

Useless is heading for a massive downfall. That's not hate but true 😂
What a frightening similarity to the totalitarian rules in North Korea, where no one can trust anyone 😢
Freedom of thoughts and speech is essential for a real democracy. To hold a different opinion is definitely not an act of hate, it's just another opinion.
I'd like to hear your experiences of living there
The SNP communist state in action….criminalising options they don’t agree with.

So Scotland will also have its films censored and tv programs on tv
I don't think that I could live in Scotland.
I speak my mind... 🤥🤥🤥
Potholes hurt people, want to fix em first please !
Here's a good idea, why don't the police deal with real crime instead of wasting time and money investigating hurty words. 😢
Free speech
1984
another SNP Humza screw up. the list is endless.
A confrontation between J K Rowling and the despicable racist Yousaf could prove to be the watershed. Feminine grace is the bedrock upon which all civilised values rest. Women united in a common cause are the most formidable social force there is - remember the Sarah Everard vigil on Clapham Common.
Now this could be the turning point for which so many have been hoping in all this time.
The old saying sticks and stones look it up because this is pathetic
Breaking news: Scotland arrested entire UK government under new hate crime act.
This would be impossible in America because of the 1st Amendment. Perhaps it's time for the UK to adopt some sort of written constitution protecting free speech.
This time next year everyone will be out of work😂
the scary bit is it will be used by so many employees to win any argument , to get even about not being promoted , get the new position or payrise all they need to do is complain to the police if they get a result (who cares if it true or accurate) they've got a blank cheque
Who care what law they come out with…. Means nothing
Exactly . I follow my own guidelines now . I have lost faith in all laws
But all Rangers &Celtic supporters are exempt.
i expect only celtic fans will be exempt
@@emperorsnewclothes9405🤣
Total outrage. Can’t believe this has happened in Scotland. There must be a reaction to this nonsense.
Anything can be claimed to be offensive.
Report every word Humza says he is hateful and terrifying he causes fear and alarm
Scotland is going to be one hateful place.
This law states that a hate crime incident will be logged for every complaint even if the law has not been broken!
There may be even a table of these imaginary hate incidents to lets us know where all these crimes which were not commited took place.
This is on April fools day as well.
Hate has never bothered them when women were targeted, and it never will.
Is this an early april fools joke ??????? what does the sex shop and fish factory have to do with new laws im genuinely perplexed
It so perverts feel in a comfortable environment, to complain about people who think there perverted. I'm off to the joke shop to complain that my mother in law wasn't sawn in half. False advertising.i now feel hurt.
Is calling someone TURF and threatening to rape and kill not hate speech?
I think we all know this law will only apply to some people.
No because women aren't on the list
Hurty feelings everywhere
I guess we'll need to see how marching season turns out this July...
Everybody report everybody for everything.
SNP the gift that just keeps giving, and thankfully, they and their unelected HamASS Useless will not be in power much longer.
This law is already in place. All we are seeing is a bolt on for age, gender, disability etc. All good. Still does not hide the fact that SNP are no longer any good for Scotland.
It's all it'll be used for.
Failed men reporting women for not playing along with their larping as a woman.
The amount of hate crimes will fall because no one will express their feelings again. People nowadays calling disagree or even truth in some cases as hate.
It is clearly legally defined not what someone reckons
The largest complaint behind the iron curtain was the feeling of isolation... Welcome to the new bloc comrade!
Define Hate?.. ah yes as always, the ruler define the definitions.
Nope. There is a legal definition and it isn't hating, it is doing something about it.
@@julianshepherd2038Whats hate?
Hate us when people who lie hate hearing the truth in our brave new big brother styled world.
The people of Scotland asked for this. No sympathy.
No we didn't!!
I bet they wont protect jews 😂😂
They will protect people calling for jihad
Whos the leader of Scotland?
Dual citizenship politicians in Scotland, Ireland, Wales and England... I wonder where to? 🤔 Surely no coincidence.... Surely not a conflict of interest...
Can we focus of knives first please?
That billboard will be getting a paint job soon 😂
Come on everybody...let's get rid of our slander today, before tomorrow comes😡
So if the police have 2 hours training to understand this law how are the citizens supposed to understand it, do we get 2 hours training as well ?
It’s time to rebuild the wall…

Waste of police time, I’d rather them investigate theft, knife crime , etc etc etc not this crazy law on hate crime🤦🏻♂️.
Humza yousaf really just said he is “protecting freedom of expression” wow clown world
Draconian is an understatement
Very worrying
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can't hurt me.
What are the odds Canada passes a similar bill just a few days before this. Is this more WEF homogenized policy for the west
So will football chants and banter be banned?
What a joke. More Bla Bla Bla. I’m going to bed!
That shot of Yousef with the flag... Why so much dead space? Why is the camera lower than his eyeline? I can't decide if it's a "self-shooting-edit-PD" who forgot the tripod and the rest of the lenses, or if it's actually a carefully composed shot that's intended to make Yousef look even more arrogant and jowely than usual. Either way, I like it.
NO
Good luck applying this here 🤣🤣
NO! 🗿
can all the english complain about the SNP
I thought the Scottish and Irish were smarter than other Western nations like France / the UK / Sweden etc. Apparently not. Keep voting for leftists, "conservatives" and never nationalists. The results speak for themselves..well done.
What about demanding Hamza's resignation and the right to free speech being maintained.
Scotland is losing our way of life because of this guy who's running it get him out of power it should have went to the public to vote in the person we wanted to run our country
That's precisely why it's been enacted.
More poppycock. This'll be the most spectacular waste of police time & resources yet.
Durka durka!!!
this is not acceptable
Scotland is becoming a mini Soviet Union
The stabbings and they go for hate crime
Scotland must support Reform uk if they want their country back.
worldwide boycott of everything Scotland begins today
It is basically the 1986 uk race relations act extended to varying degrees to disability, age etc
It's basically Orwells 1984.

Otherwise Scotland is a wonderful country with friendly people.
