Wtf is a "simple m****"??!

Don't say it if you know, it's possibly a hate crime:

If moron is a hate crime where do we even go from here.

The SNP are teflon.

On reading the article (I know, shame on me) it looks like she was picked up under pre-hate crime laws against verbal abuse, so this is just a story about an elderly lady kicking off against her neighbour?

They’ve removed the last * in the article now and say m***o. I would guess that the only other vowel was another o and a g and an n would make up the word.

This is an ableist slur which I and others have objected to on Rof when used without the final “o” but I don’t think it’s use warrants the action taken. 
Glad I don’t police in Scotland.
