Meanwhile in England, Misgendering Will Wind You Up in Jail

In the U.S. if you use a pronoun that offends a transexual, you can get fired, banned from social media, doxed, or your business can be boycotted. In jolly old England, you can be arrested. 

(LifeSiteNews) – If you are one of those who believes that the transgender movement is about tolerance rather than a totalitarian takeover, you have not been reading the news these past few years.

Back in 2018, a 38-year-old mother was arrested in Hertfordshire, U.K., at her home in front of her ten-year-old autistic daughter and 20-month-old still-breastfeeding son — for having an argument with a transgender activist on Twitter and “misgendering.” She was detained, photographed, fingerprinted, and locked up for seven hours.

Then there was Marion Miller, an accountant and mother of autistic twin boys. She was charged with “hate speech” under the Malicious Communications Act for tweets disagreeing with transgender ideology posted in 2019 and 2020 and could have faced two years in prison. The charges were not finally dropped until late 2021.

And on Sunday, January 23, the Gwent Police arrested 53-year-old disabled women’s rights campaigner Jennifer Swayne, detaining her for over 12 hours and releasing after 3:00 a.m. for defending biological sex against gender ideology.

They subsequently raided her house, taking posters and stickers deemed “offensive” by trans activists with phrases such as “no child is born in the wrong body,” “humans never change sex,” “no men in women’s prison,” and “Woman=Adult Human Female.”

I hope and pray that this never happens here.

    It's very sad to consider that we inherited our common law and our basic freedoms from a country which is now abandoning them.

    2. I believe that we took the first step when they created "Hate Crime" laws. If I explain the Gospel to someone, they might complain that I have assaulted them hatefully. That could be a crime in some wacko District Attorney's mind.

    Hate crime laws are rubbish. If one serves as a juror never prosecute. Void the law by use of Jury Nullification.
