"Legal but harmful" is the logical expansion to "non-crime hate incident," which is when the police detain and interview you in order to create permanent records of hate non-crimes based solely on someone else's offense without any indication or claim the offense constituted a crime. It eventually devolved even farther into a somewhat milder form of SWATing utilized by twitter trolls. Imagine if SWATing didn't have much of a chance of getting you hurt, but had a 100% chance of putting you on what is essentially a domestic terrorist watchlist.
