The jews are trying to force their fucking hate-crime laws upon us, but, circa 1826, William Hazlitt wrote a splendid essay "On the Pleasure of Hating".  http://www.blupete.com/Literature/Essays/Hazlitt/Hating.htm

QuoteI bear the creature no ill-will, but still I hate the very sight of it. The spirit of malevolence survives the practical exertion of it. We learn to curb our will and keep our overt actions within the bounds of humanity, long before we can subdue our sentiments and imaginations to the same mild tone. We give up the external demonstration, the brute violence, but cannot part with the essence or principle of hostility.

Who is without sin with regard to being haters? But calling evil good is the above authors intent, is that the idea?  Love to hate that.  How do we win this?

Ban racists from social media, anti-Semitism report says:

"If it can be proven in a detailed way that someone has made a considered and determined view to exploit various online networks to harm and perpetrate hate crimes against others then the accepted principles, rules and restrictions that are relevant to sex offences must surely apply."

Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe said the force had taken steps to provide "additional reassurance" to Jewish communities in recent weeks.

The best way of helping police was to report hate crime, but a wider response was also needed, he said.

"We need society to become as vocally intolerant of faith-hatred as it is of other forms of discrimination, and a clearer understanding of where freedom of speech oversteps the mark."

Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis said the report was timely following the recent attacks in Paris.
