We actually do have hate crime laws, made in the 80s, though from what I've read they aren't worth much when it comes to prosecutions. Part of the background to the recent referendum was a suggestion the blasphemy provision should be replaced with more general wording about hate speech, but that never transpired.

I think LOI supporters should be recognised as an ethnic minority , we are scorned in public, discriminated against by the govt and in general looked down upon
Would love to see a day where LOI fans move beyond the traveller themed abuse / chants at matches. Apart from the very real prospect of punishment for clubs, it's just not right to use any such group as an abusive term.
We can all give each other abuse without picking on the travelling community.
#NeverStopNotGivingUp
It is testament to the quality of discussion that this subject has been brought up but it is sad to hear anti-traveller chants at games, of course they are still commonplace as are shouts of “fa**ot” or “q**er” but they should be challenged every time.
Great to see it being brought up.
