Hate Crime Increase

[Mick Dempsey]

This is a complete non story, its about how one force area is categorising something.

 

Apart from "which pigeon hole" its put in, nothing has changed nor is it likely to.

 

Yep,

It makes me wonder how serious some of these things are.

I was at a clients pricing a job recently and he said to me "you still here? I thought you'd have gone back to England by now"

 

I laughed, he laughed.

 

Someone of a sensitive nature might have interpreted it differently.

 

(I got the job btw)

Thanks Felix, I think I need a phone camera with a better zoom on it I just pretend I'm looking for Pokemon at the moment but I think they are getting wise (I'm at a funny age, 64)

 

Yes the age thing creeps up on you doesn't it!

I suppose there cannot be a crime in thinking about what you might like to do even though the actual physical side may not be threatening!

 

There would be a lot of people in prison if thinking about it was a crime

Don't be too sure. A lot of people seem to be taking Orwell's 1984 as an instruction manual rather than a warning.
