What are you talking about?! Do you mean “ideas” like publicly inciting violence? Because that’s illegal in the USA too.

- milesrout 2y agoDon't be disingenuous. You know very well what the parent is talking about. Random example: https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/no-charges-in-koran-burning-case-that-should-never-have-been-brought/ https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/no-charges-in-koran-burn... Also loads and loads of others. The Police in the UK are completely out of control.
- tene80i 2y agoYour example is the burning of a religious text, which is provocative enough to be scooped up, even if incorrectly, by hate speech laws. It's absurd to suggest proposing ideas about supermarket self-checkouts is anything like that, and it's also absurd to suggest the UK is the only country where people are wrongfully arrested – unless you're suggesting the USA has a healthier police system? And if you want to throw evidence into a debate, you might want to choose a publication with a bit more standing than whatever random partisan blog this is.
