The Thought Police

@gol979 They THOUGHT he might have committed a crime.

Inciting trans hatred and harassment (which is he has been charged with) are criminal offences in the UK. The police have interpreted a currently controversial area of law as best as they can. It is up to parliament to act if those laws need changing. In the meantime, we cannot pick and choose which laws we obey.

The issue is he suggested violence towards a minority group. That's illegal. Whether the Police over did it is a separate question.

To those who said he was returning home, it seems to me that he was on his way home, perhaps, but he is an Irish citizen, not British.

Hey, know the laws of the country you visit.

@Bumbles Regardless of "their country, their laws", actual violent crimes that pose real dangers get far less immediate attention. It's also my country, and I'm allowed to express my disquiet at people being arrested in my country for expressing opinions on an online platform.
@Bumbles Well this is the country that tried banning Kareem Dennis from London claiming his music was literal terrorism.

@weestar I can see why this case got a lot of attention, though. I’m in the US so murder is more popular than football. If you don’t kill at least 10 people in a mass shooting here the news cycle will exhaust the subject in a day or so. Killing kids gets you more coverage, on average, one day per kid.

And JK is always willing to lend her twisted hand to the occasion which causes more uproar.

I’m certainly not of the opinion you shouldn’t express yours. I’m American, we believe in free speech. I also don’t go to North Korea and call Kim Jong Un a tub of pork lard.

This “writer” is a piece of shit. He’s a hack jumping on the “anti-woke” train after it’s left the station, reached its destination, and come back to its origin.

I feel no pity for this idiot who gets off beating up on people who just want to be left alone. Hitting someone when they are down is about as low as you can go.

But not to worry, he will be embraced by MAGA, and will probably write the next Mel Gibson fetish movie.
When the Dems culled the internet to remove all info making them look bad, Americans all together said nothing, and so, like yup! Twitter obliged and you are attacking Russia! No problem with those other things we do not know!
