    Threats against human beings are already covered, are they not?

    I don't know.

    In America no one will arrest you for spreading the idea that all Catholic Priests are evil child rapists who should be murdered, even though there are some fringe Baptists who would love to be able to do this given half a chance. Maybe the Irish law is something about these kinds of statements which aren't against a specific, particular group, but rather a more general group?

    Because being an idiot is not illegal. Incitement to riot, however, is as are other forms of non-protected speech which shall cause 'imminent lawlessness.' Personally I feel that's a pretty good setup.

    Does the law cover, say, the Elk's Club?

    What's the Elk's Club?

    so hard with my girls not around me

    it's definitely not a Nashville party

    I'm at the house, all alone. My roommates are spending the holidays with their bfs.

    Maybe a Jay-Z song will come on the radio and cheer you up.

    And then a Brittney song.

    It is an organization that people might talk negatively about in a similar manner.

    Which group does not matter, really.

    I don't think they should be arrested for spreading those ideas, mind you, unless someone clearly does something as a result of that person's influence. But it could be the Irish are being a little more strict about it. I don't know.

    A club for moose and sometimes squirrel.

    Remember when they were going to pass that hate crime bill in the UK. Man that got way too close to passing. America teach us your ways.
