UK: Don't jail hate preachers, says the independent reviewer of anti-terror laws

(London) Max Hill independent reviewer of anti-terror laws in the Uk hit the headlines when he stated on last week that ISIS terrorists returning from Syria should not be arrested, jailed or even punished, but rather just allowed to get on with their lives. Yes really. And a week later he’s done it again, by stating that hate preachers shouldn’t be jailed but rather be hit with an administrative slap on the wrist . Speaking to a human right charity Mr Hill stated that:

  • Introducing new laws to prosecute extremists would be wrong
  •  Terrorists who commit modest or middle-ranking offences should not face longer jail terms,
  • “We do not, and should not criminalise thought without action or preparation for action. Thought with steps towards action can be terrorism. Thought without action or preparation for action may be extremism, but it is not terrorism.”

 Thankfully the government isn’t having anything to do with what the independent reviewer of anti-terror laws wishes to implement.

Why is it, liberals are so free and easy with other peoples lives?
