Forgetting the current idiots at the top spacedog - you are correct in that any law would allow whoever is in power in future years to use, or abuse, offensive laws.
This conduct is not that of a rational regime - it only enhances the mode of an oppressive police state and based on the usual diatribe/excuse of "we are under threat".
