One of the logical objections to the idea of treating alleged ‘hate crimes’ as real crimes is the easy way that these ‘hate crime’ laws and especially legislation outlawing ‘hate speech’, can be abused and twisted by individuals and groups for political or personal ends. Another solid objection to these easily corruptible laws regarding ‘hate’ is that they go against the idea of equal justice, a concept first outlined in Biblical times and which the West has spent a lot of time working to incorporate into its justice systems.
‘Hate crime’ laws also create classes of people often based on aspects of their person that they cannot change such as race, gender or sexuality, that give people in these groups rights under the law that others do not have. For example: In the UK, according to the current Director of Public Prosecutions Alison Saunders, there is no need for real evidence to ‘prove’ a ‘hate crime’ in court. This can create situations where if an individual or a group wishes to take revenge on someone, or smear a former friend, gain a political advantage or even silence an opinion that they don’t like, all they need to do is claim ‘hate crime’ and the alleged miscreant will have the full might of the Law turned against them.
‘Hate crime’ laws are also far too easily exploitable by Islamic groups who wish to advance Islam in the West and use ‘hate crime’ laws and fake ‘hate crime’ complaints in order to get the general population to see Islam as an oppressed group. These laws allow Islam and those who promote it to do this even though the historical record shows Islam as being far more the oppressor than one of the oppressed.
We seem to see a lot of ‘hate crime’ claims, especially those being made by Muslims or Islamic organisations, being well and truly busted for being false. The web abounds with stories of Muslims who are alleged to have faked hate crimes such as ‘hijab pulling’, graffiti, vandalism, physical attack and even arson. These crimes are faked in order to get non Muslims to unjustly feel sorry for Islam and its followers, or to advance the false claims that Islam is ‘oppressed’ and therefore deserves more help by society.
Canada this week has seen a particularly high profile fake ‘hate crime’ attack and one which was picked up and amplified not only by Britain’s least favourite Islamic taqiyya artists, Tell Mama, but which was also promoted by Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Tell Mama have a long and undistinguished record for not picking up quickly enough on fakes and this has been illustrated by their running with this story when it appeared even though to the casual reader to be full of holes. The championing of this case by Trudeau has also shown him to be the sort of man who will open his mouth and spout any old pro Islam guff whether it’s true or as in this case 100% false.
The fake hate crime in question was claimed to have taken place in Ontario on Friday the 12th January 2018. A young Muslim girl had claimed that she had been attacked twice by a man wielding scissors who cut off part of her hijab. Both Trudeau and others of a ‘appease Islam’ mindset and the Tell Mama organisation went mad about this case, telling the world that a terrible crime had occurred and how awful it was that a young child was targeted in this way.
However late yesterday afternoon (GMT) it started to emerge that this story was completely fake. There was no attack, there was no man with scissors, there was no hijab cutting it was all made up. When the police started to investigate this allegation there didn’t even seem to be any credible evidence to back this claim up whatsoever. Now as the original report of this alleged attack didn’t state that there were any witnesses who may have seen this attack then suspicions should have immediately been raised. Both Tell Mama and even more so Justin Trudeau, should have proceeded with caution over this story before promoting it at a press conference in answer to a question, bearing in mind the large number of fake hijab pulling claims that have been made by attention seekers or those with a political or religious agenda. To be fair, anybody who writes or speaks publicly can make a mistake, it’s normal, it’s human and it can often be excused. However those in receipt of enormous amounts of public money and which have monitoring ‘hate crime’ claims as their core activity, such as the Tell Mama group, or like Justin Trudeau who are major public political figures, have far less excuse for their error. They should have been much more cautious.
These fake ‘hate crime’ claims are dangerous. They could end up with innocent people smeared or gaoled for crimes they did not commit. They could also inspire vigilantism against those who are falsely accused of or who are from the same community as the alleged ‘attackers’. Fake hate crimes expose a major weakness in the whole ‘hate crime’ and ‘hate speech’ concept and that is the ease with which they can be exploited for political and personal ends. In this case the lie that this girl was attacked travelled numerous times around the world before Ontario police even managed to get the boots of truth out of the locker. This is yet another fake hate crime and another reason why these ‘hate crime’ laws need to go and they need to go for the a sake of justice itself.
