The Senate of Aurentina,
RECOGNISING that there is no passed legislation regarding hate speech,
ALARMED at the legal status of hate speech as a result,
HEREBY ENACTS the following provisions:
AMENDS the definition of "harmful in nature" in the Limiting Legislation Act to "slander, personal information not belonging to they who utter the information, sensitive information, open threats against another person, hate speech, and threats of open rebellion, or terrorism against our nation."
ADDS a new clause to Section E of the Criminal Code of the Aurentine Commonwealth entitled "Hate Speech", which says "Hate Speech is determined to be assault by Person X on Person Y based on their nationality, skin colour, race, sexual orientation or religious beliefs in a ridiculing, insulting or threatening manner, or in order to incite hatred towards Person Y. It is a Contravention."
HEREBY PASSES the Criminalisation of Hate Speech Act.
Is anyone else willing to sponsor this?
