It is Now illegal in the UK to be, "grossly offensive"

[CaptHayfever]

Pretty sure we're all in agreement, for one reason or another, that this is a bad law.
But seriously, fellow white people, stop saying/typing/quoting the n-word.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Verdict came in with an $1100 fine. Better than jail time, though hardly a victory. He created a GoFundMe with a £100k goal to file an appeal, with the goal passed in a day.

You were sort of vague as to why you thought it was a bad law, I mean saying "for one reason or another" is rather ambiguous, is it not? I thought it'd be pretty unanimous that if we think it's a bad law that it's because people aren't free to say offensive things but maybe that's not the case. Since I am dense I would appreciate someone explaining how else it could be a bad law instead.

It's a bad law because it is very ambiguous and subjective. What is "offensive" could be different to anyone and isn't very laid out or clear in the way the law was written. And this case is a great example of its open-ended nature being exploited.

Aaand people are now trying to make Gofundme take it down, saying things like he's trying to use it to fund hate

Also this is the best clip, I think, to come out of this that can illustrate the problem with the law.

Sometimes a spade is just a spade, ridiculous that people keep trying to frame it as something else. Yeah, the joke was in poor taste but just stop with the LEL ANYONE WHO DOES ANYTHING IS A RACIST NOW
