Wolf Whistlers May Be Charged With Hate Crime in UK

[okfine]

Twenty years ago I lived in Merseyside and was warned not to howl at women as it was against the law. Seems that it was up to the local police whether or not to take action. Now it looks like it may become a hate crime. Wow.

Is wolf whistling illegal in the UK, is it a hate crime and what is the law on catcalling?

Why would you howl at women?
Did you think it would get you laid?

Hate speech can also send you to jail there. Not a free country at all. That's what the Left (Democrats) want to do here.

It will only be illegal for white christian men to cat call and wolf whistle at women.

If the Muslim population does this or rapes women, it will be perfectly fine. . as in all likelihood, their dress and mannerism did not accord to sharia standards and it was probably provoked.

There is no such thing as "hate speech". It's a Left construct to discourage criticism.

There is only opinion, which all free people are entitled to have.
