the door from the police (especially in Britain) for any "racist""sexist""homophobia" comments.

hopefully they are busy with real criminals and keeping the streets safe without worrying about infringing the rights of free speech.

Don't worry. In Britain we let paedophiles walk the streets because the jails are full.
Mind you, the way things are going I guess you could get life for saying something that might just, in a sort of roundabout way, possibly, perhaps and with the wind blowing in the right direction be considered, maybe, to be perhaps a tiny little bit not politically correct.
Sorry - got to go there's a knock at the door...

Watch out the PC Police are under your bed!
Watch out the PC Police are in your closet!
Boo!
"Fall prey to political correctness..." Ha! Get over yourself. If you want to talk hate at people who are different than you, have the balls to accept the fact you're going to get called on it.
If you want to call someone a n*gger, b*tch, or f*g, go right ahead, but don't expect to get a gold star for it.

I have recently been thinking the exact same thing and you know what I think if may. Freedom of speech is already on its way out with this over run of POLITICAL CORRECTNESS - a good debate without using correctness issues would solve the political correctness we have today.

I truly hope not. It is a polite name for evasive ways of speaking by people with hang ups, if not downright untruth. A very different thing to controlling hateful and inflammatory bigotry.

Maybe if you went too far, but it will also depend on if you registered with your correct details.
To be honest, the police can't deal with the criminals they know of at the moment, so i don't think they'll be in a rush to add to their list.
