by mind over matter
How about sacrilegious and blasphemous acts that offends one's religion?
Freedom of speech and expression should be allowed unless it is slanderous, in which case it is more than offensive it is misleading.
Muslims do not allow this freedom of speech or expression, and it is diametrically opposed to western religions.
If we start making it a crime to offend people then we would be as bad as the Muslims.
They say:
Slay the unbelievers wherever you find them(2:191)
Make war on the infidels living in your neighboorhood (9:123)
When opportunity arises, kill the infidels wherever you catch them (9:5)
Kill the Jews and the Christians if they do not convert to Islam or refuse to pay Jizya tax (9:29)
Any religion other than Islam is not acceptable (3:85)
The Jews and the Christians are perverts; fight them (9:30)
Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticise Islam. (5:33)
The infidels are unclean; do not let them into a mosque (9:28)
Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water; melt their skin and bellies
(22:19)
Do not hanker for peace with the infidels; behead them when you catch them (47:4)
The unbelievers are stupid; urge the Muslims to fight them (8:65)
Muslims must not take the infidels as friends (3:28)
Terrorise and behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Qur’an (8:12)
Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorise the infidels (8:60)
so there are already places in the world where offending people is a crime, and it would be a shame if it were allowed to become a crime here.
If a Muslim says they are being misinterpreted by quotes from above being taken out of context just draw a picture of Allah and give it to them, unless you are in fear of Jihad.
So we can see where offending people has its place.
Could not making offending people drain peoples rights in other ways, and not just freedom of speech/expression.
Imagine there was a large all white/black/other convention going on and everyone in attendance was a racist. Then imagine someone not from their race wandered in and started shaking hands and flirting with the ladies.
Would the majority not be offended? Would the majority have the right to turn that person into a criminal because of their own racism?
There needs to be a lot more to make a law than offensiveness in any country I would be proud to live in.
