I never finished "Generation of Vipers" the first time it was available online. I am watching it at the moment, and Inspector Lewis just called internet trolling, insults, and expressions of hate (~"You should die.") a hate crime. Reflecting the new UK? Would Inspector Morse ever make such an exaggerated claim? Those who would defend Lewis (and the script writers) will say that this reflects the viewpoint of a gentleman, even though he is of a more modest background, but I think it's just PC-speak, again.
Wishing that someone is dead and expressing this to them may be vicious. But to say that such an act should be punishable by law?
