News of provocative new legislation in Britain, from the [1] Telegraph (thanks to the many who sent this to me):

David Blunkett, the Home Secretary, has said he will relaunch plans to make inciting religious hatred a criminal offence. The new offence is likely to be closely modelled on the existing crime of inciting racial hatred which carries a maximum penalty of seven years' imprisonment.

Mr Blunkett said the new law could help protect minority religions from attack by right-wing groups.But it could also be deployed against fundamentalist Islamists, as well as other extremists, who preach against Christian society.

Remember: when hatred is outlawed, only outlaws will hate. If they're going to have a silly law like this at all, they really ought to use it against [2] these guys, but somehow I doubt they will. Instead, it will probably end up like [3] this.
