"jailed for what we have said already here on FreeRepublic"

I think that if the successful unopposed march of liberalism is not stopped soon it will come to that – jail time for discourse. In California we prosecute "hate speech" pretty intently if it is involved with a crime of violence – it becomes a hate crime and the jail time doubles. (I have to ask do we ever have love crimes?) I assume that the Euro-Nazis will take the lead on the prosecution of plain old speech as they are now doing.

The last step is to let your neighbors turn you in if they suspect you could have uttered hate-words. So yes, depending how voraciously the local prosecutors are you could be spending jail time for saying exactly what we are saying right now!!

From a recient article here on free republic.

Excerpt:
(My friend seemed uncharacteristically quiet and when I asked why, told me of an incident that had just happened to a friend of hers as she was walking into the state house. A group of homosexuals and lesbians approached and began threatening her and the others with her, tormenting them with anti-religious slurs. The attempts met with no response. One of the activists then centered on her and tried more aggressively to get her to respond, verbally abusing her until she was in tears. When she said nothing, the activist spat, “I hope your children choke and die in front of you!”)

Now I wonder what hate crime the homosexual activist would be charged with here? I suspect nothing would happen to him but the Christian would be jailed if she had defended herself.
