You keep stating things about 'Not very nice' people. This is a very immature outlook, but if you feel this way it's probably best to avoid people you feel this way about, particularly if they are in a protected group. The defence of 'I don't think that they're a nice person' (particularly where their behaviour is a result of a disability) would only serve to help the prosecution.
Not liking someone or forming the view that they are 'not a very nice person' doesn't give anybody the right to treat people badly and could be against the law.

This is not based on fact - there has to be verbal abuse for it even to be considered to be against the law, and disagreeing with someone isn’t verbal abuse.
