Trans activists urge Scottish police to arrest JK Rowling over ‘misgendering hate crime’
Telegraph via Yahoo ^ | March 10, 2024 | Daniel Sanderson

Trans rights activists are attempting to have JK Rowling arrested by Scottish police over “misgendering” after a complaint was dismissed in England.

Northumbria Police last week confirmed that it did not believe the Harry Potter author had committed a criminal offence by publicly calling India Willoughby, a transgender TV personality, a male.

Willoughby had gone to police claiming Rowling had “definitely committed a crime” by referring to the former Celebrity Big Brother contestant as male.

The 58-year-old former newsreader has vowed to appeal against “their decision not to prosecute” and is to request a review of the decision.

Meanwhile, Willoughby’s supporters claimed to have submitted complaints against Rowling, who lives in Edinburgh, to Police Scotland in the hope that the force will come to a different decision.

Too bad magic isn't real and Rowling can't wave some wand to make all these freaks go away... or better yet... wake up from their fever dreams and start behaving like normal human beings.

Oops, now I can't go to Scotland and play at their historic golf courses.

Rowling should engage some “likely lads” to sort out this little problem.

"Look its really simple, if you have a penis you are a man."

"Male", certainly. "Man", not by a long shot.

The powers that be are in a spot...if they don’t arrest Rowling it’s a big loss of face for the trans movement globally. I predict they will arrest her. Hopefully I’m wrong.

Portland, Oregon does not have free speech. A woman got arrested for complaining about a trans in the women’s restroom.

Seems to me the solution to this is to never refer to someone’s gender, only their sex. If you never gender someone, you can never misgender someone.

Its now a crime not to affirm the mentally ill.

I remember when society desired to actually help the mentally ill.

Britain couldn’t mimic 1984 any better than it does now. Frigging orwellian socialist hellhole. And we’re further back on the same path.

Some of these "trans" people opt for surgical removal of the "offending" organs. Of course, that still does not change their sex.

I say that we refer to them as "eunuchs."

Then the cops fruited out.

I honestly didn’t realize how pernicious allowing homosexuals
to come out of the closet would become.

It led to a number of things, this end result, and the
results to come.

We may not have seen anything near the end of this yet,
as it gets worse and worse.
