controversial amendment that would remove a religious exemption for hate speech from the Criminal Code.
How is that controversial?
Leader Pierre Poilievre posted on social media that the change would “criminalize sections of the Bible, Qur’an, Torah and other sacred texts.”
Again, how is that a bad thing?
So he does agree that sacred texts contain hate speech
I suspect religious people would be irritated if their texts were labelled as hate speech. It would be politically a bad move if this turned out to be the case. That’s why it’s a “bad thing.”
Religion is entirely a private matter in Canada so this wouldn’t effect people.
what do you mean by “entirely a private matter”? people go to church; churches post things on social media; etc.
Those are all private, not public life.
They leave their religion at the door when they leave their house or place of worship and it’s not in their lives until they go back to one of those places.
Somehow, I don’t think that religious people see it this way.
Maybe religious people should collectively shut the fuck up and stop bothering the rest of us with their asinine bullshit?
“maybe people who disagree with me should stop voting?”
OK so after like a dozen comments we’ve finally reached my point again. This is politics.
Then they probably think they are south of the border in the land of public prayer.
Maybe they do! But they can still vote.
Again, how is that a bad thing?
Whole ass or no ass. Don’t use undefined sections.
