As usual, that word 'offended' is wide open and one way... and all someone has to do is say they are offended and someone accused without proof of any wrongdoing is publicly crucified.
That is Fascism 101.... total control over the individual and rendering of him/her unto servitude to the state's whims.
I warned you all countless years ago that permitting governments to get away with pillorying people over someone's unsupported claim to 'being offended' or 'fearing violence' etc would lead to a form of social control unprecedented even in the history of the likes of Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia.
Dragging people into a court over someone's claimed 'feelings' is NOT the right or duty of the law.... under any circumstances whatsoever.
Take back the asylum.
'The power of government is abused and directed to an end for which it is not constituted when employed to promote rather than to detect crime and to bring about the downfall of those who, left to themselves, might well have obeyed the law. Human nature is weak enough and sufficiently beset by temptations without government adding to them and generating crime'.
- Justice Felix Frankfurter, US Supreme Court.
(I read this to include 'creating crime out of everyday things' which is the current mode of 'governments' .... kinda makes you wish you'd signed up for being a hippy, don' it .... and saying 'do it now before it becomes illegal'...)
