Calling for violence is one thing, but criminalizing speech simply because it's hateful and offensive is not my definition of liberal. And carry this forward to it's natural conclusion, what is the left going to do when THEIR ability to be hateful and offensive becomes criminalized? That sword can cut both ways, best not to go there. Do you really want to live in a society where you can be jailed for something so trivial? We should keep free speech within the widest possible limits so we all have the ability to peacefully speak our minds without fear of the law.
If someone disagrees with me and they call me a fucking piece of shit, is that not hate speech? Of course it is, that's an obvious expression of hate. Is it not also personally hurtful, degrading, etc? Sure. So if hate speech is a crime, why fight one form of hate speech and not others? Or are some forms of hate acceptable and others not? Isn't that discriminatory? I can hate this person and say offensive things to them, but I can't hate that person or say offensive things to them?
We need this in the US. It's evil, and it puts the trans person in danger. It makes them a target.Trans people are murder and violence victims very often.
At first they just want to be left alone.
Then they want acceptance.
Next they want rights.
Pretty soon they demand public approval.
After that they force participation.
I don't know what the subject is-No link that I can see. Isn't every thing male or female in french? easy to mix it up and who is it going to hurt? Not my business anyhow I live in USA

I agree. Wide parameters.
I do believe when a leader of a movement, someone who holds sway over others, calls for violent acts, that is different.
Charles manson comes to mind.
So, we're back to yelling , "Hey you" at each other.
Politicians are so out of control that they now have instituted laws on what we are allowed to think. It all started with indoctrination......
So if I call Bruce / Caitlyn Jenner - Bruce Jenner or 'he' in Canada, then I will be jailed, fined, and made to take anti-bias training?
And progressives are OK with that? Justin Trudeau is OK with that? She is an idiot.
Idiotic insanity.
Stupid idea. I hope this backfires and their tourism drops.

Why? We're all - most of us - really careful about saying the right words...
I am a confused sexual harassment panda today.

We don't need this in America. Move to Canada.
Why don't you move?
No.
