Brickbat: Hubba Hubba!

Tex Avery

Police in Nottinghamshire, England, say they will now treat catcalls and wolf whistles on the street as hate crimes to be investigated and recorded. However, the department says a "hate crime" may not actually be a criminal offense nor even considered offensive by the "victim. Rather, a hate crime is any incident "perceived by the victim or any other person, as being motivated by prejudice or hatred."
