Open Question: Is it illegal to make homophobic/racist comments or propositions?
I was on a facebook group chat the other day and my muslim friend was annoyed at the all the extremism and islamaphobia going on and decided to make the distasteful satirical joke that “all gays should be pushed off buildings”. Of course he never meant it but he said it as a way of trolling the people who are islamophobic.
However, a random person on the group has screenshotted the comment and reported it to the police, and a police investigation is currently going on due to what was said, is it illegal to say things like this? It was obvious that it was satirical and never meant to be taken seriously but I am worried that the police may not see this. What is the worst that can happen?
Thanks in advance
