UK Proposes Prison Time For Offensive Online Posts
Amy Balog
The Sentencing Council for England and Wales has drafted
new guidelines proposing prison sentences of between 26 weeks and six years for social media posts deemed hostile toward a race, religion or sexual identity.
The proposals have been made in relation to the Public Order Act, which prohibits all activities “intended or likely to stir up hatred” against minority groups, including transgender people. Many of the examples in the document reference social media use.
Those “in a position of trust, authority or influence” abusing their position to stir up hatred are facing the harshest sentences. The suggested punishment will also be more severe if the offender has a particularly large online following or if he or she is associated with any groups promoting hatred based on race or religion.

Well, the UK has been showing it's authority lately. No sharped-edge weapons, you cannot scream at your wife, now, you cannot express your opinion without fear of jail time. Folks, this is what socialism looks like...now they have applied force which now qualifies as communism.
