It has the most civil liberties
2.1 MILLION people in prison
Nah, it can also mean it has a fuckton of laws and convictions
Free Speech and Right to bear arms
Yet it restricts those freedoms MORE THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY ON EARTH @The Electric Lizard
The UK has neither
How?
By putting people in prison...
They don't have hate speech laws
You're literally brainwashed.
No one is convicted for speech crimes
in the US
Yes, they are.
They are in the UK
Who
Yes they are in the us
I've shown you they are.
Give me a case study
Bomb threats, even if they're a joke.
Over Hate Speech
Do you not know what the patriot act is?
Who in the US was arrested for Hate Speech
?
<:thinkcide2:462282425486147585>
Just one name of someone convicted for Hate Speech in the US
Does anyone have it?
This shit ain’t even about the uk
A name of someone who was convicted for hate speech in the US
oh wait
you can't
cause they ruled hate speech was free speech
We need to do exactly that in the UK
we need to
but probably wont
We can
not that it matters to me
Just pass it through Parliament

Eleven years after the St. Paul case, the U.S. Supreme Court revisited the issue of cross-burning after three people were arrested separately for violating a similar Virginia ban.
In a 5-4 ruling written by Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, the Supreme Court held that while cross-burning may constitute illegal intimidation in some cases, a ban on the public burning of crosses would violate the First Amendment.
"[A] State may choose to prohibit only those forms of intimidation," O'Connor wrote, "that are most likely to inspire fear of bodily harm." As a caveat, the justices noted, such acts can be prosecuted if the intent is proven, something not done in this case."
