The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The UK Government is not responsible for the words which people use.
There are already offences relating to the publication and distribution of material which is likely to stir up racial hatred. Deciding whether to investigate or prosecute such activity would be a matter for the police and Crown Prosecution Service, not the Government or House of Commons.
