In post#17, Skybird raises many cases where "hate crime" charges have been brought up. A quick check shows that many of these cases are true and the facts are as reported by him. I have to admit I am a bit surprised at how quickly Europeans resort to the courts to punish politically incorrect speech.
However, what about the other side? Have there been cases where European Muslim radicals have been charged under "hate crime" legislation for statements they have made about "christians"?
Skybird's charges would have some validity if it turns out the only persons being prosecuted are those who make anti-muslim statements.
