JK Rowling April Fools Tweets: Ex-Police Officer Reacts To Scottish Hate Crime Law
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 เม.ย. 2024
- The new Hate Crime and Public Order Act introduced in Scotland has sparked controversy and criticism from notable figures, including JK Rowling. The law aims to consolidate existing hate crime laws and create a new offense of threatening or abusive behaviour intended to stir up hatred on various grounds. However, Rowling and others have raised concerns about the implications of the law on freedom of speech and the ability to accurately describe biological sex.
JK Rowling recently took to social media to challenge Scotland's new hate crime law, inviting police to arrest her if they believe she has committed an offense. In a series of tweets, Rowling highlighted the absurdity of the law and the impact it could have on the ability to accurately describe and tackle violence against women and girls. She emphasized the importance of being able to call a man a man and spoke out against the restrictions on freedom of speech imposed by the law.
Former Police officer Harry Miller joins TalkTV to review the implications.

We should all be grateful to J.K. Rowling. She is leading the fight for logic, biological fact and freedom.
Kellie jay kean too.
But Rowling is aiming at the wrong target.
Face facts - this is a blasphemy law.
Humza does not care about Trans.
He wants to stop criticism of lslam.
This is a recreation of the old Covenant of Dhiimmitude
Which subjugated non-believers for a thousand years.
Sorry, but Rowling is a distraction.

Yes and she is super intelligent too.
It gives her publicity too.
@@fionagregory9147she doesn’t need publicity, she’s already huge. If anything this has brought her more negativity, they’ve sent her kids death threats.
Calling biological men, men shouldn’t be a hate crime.
As a gay man I agree 😊
@@user-lv8ko2fh9c anyone can make anything a hate crime if they claim to be offended. A man in a frock can be offended if you call him sir - putting you in jail.
It isn't a hate crime and the new Act doesn't make it one. Read the wording.
It's not even a non crime hate incident. It's called telling the truth.
Exactly. I bet it will be abused by some people saying that they don't want to be called a male or female.
Someone who says a trans joke - get 7 years in prison. Stab someone to death 6 months in prison?
Then don’t joke about those who made that stupid law, when you can settle for six month only.
@@MrSuperJensen Hahahaha!
Says much about the legislature!
Time for SNP to go. This SNP leader wasn't even voted in by the general public.
Neither was the prime minister. ELECTIONS NOW
WEF puppet?
Oh, he was voted for in the same fashion as Biden.
Save your country. We are trying hard to save ours.
@@clwaid5407he had my vote, then he started supporting the Orcs just to be in opposition...
Now i HAVE to support the old guy just so Ukraine gets the help they need to protect their civilians.
I dont get why he painted himself in the corner with that un American stance
@@clwaid5407 "he was voted for in the same fashion as Biden."
Just how the fuck do you work that out?
I stand by JK Rowling, and I'd go to prison for it. This is the biggest threat to womanhood in the whole of our human history.
Threat to free speech! End of!
😁ME TO 👍🇬🇪🇬🇧!
@@samanthaclugston6685count me in as well
100% The woman is not for turning well done JKR :-)
It's pretty bad and I support JKR's position too, but "biggest threat to womanhood in the whole world of human history"? Seriously?
A man is a man, a women is a woman & we are gutted in Scotland with this crazy Law!!
We're the laughing stock of the world, we can only hope that SNP do not win a single seat in the next election.
@@neilhands1708Labour voted for it too and the Conservatives won't oust the snp
Please vote SNP out….also Labour and Greens supported this fascist bill.
My neutered male dog is still a male 🤦♀️
The alarm bells should have started ringing when Scots were told they can't buy alcohol in shops before 10am and after 10pm. Let alone the minimum alcohol pricing. Type of legislation overreach is ridiculous. Vote socialist get authoritarianism
People of Scotland, DEMAND a referendum! REPEAL the law! you can do it, DO IT!
The SNP have just committed political suicide and I’d expect them to be routed at the next election .
The behaviour of the SNP over the last few years makes me think that they never want to be in control of Scotland ever again
Scottish people wanted errrrr "freedom"" instead they got communism.
Have any of the opposition parties committed to ditching this new law?
lol, you think voting is real
This law makes it illegal to ridicule religion. It's an Islamic blasphemy law.
100%
I'll criticise religion even if I'm threatened with execution
I refuse to recognise so-called primitive and backwards laws brought into our country
Good for you. @@SamuelBlack84
Christian Europe is dead… those are facts there will be a new Europe governed under sharia law.

J K Rowlings greatest work
Absolutely
Nah HIS best work is written under the Name Robert Galbraith 🤣 JKR what a 🤡
You wait until her 'The Hate Monster' book!
OMG , when I hear the government say this is for your safety and good,I get very worried!
The only thing I would disagree with is regarding JK Rowling representing only 50% of 5he population. I She also represents anyone who does not go along with this ridiculous law and believes in freedom of speech.
Blasphemy laws by the back door.
The only purpose in mind I suspect
Possibly, but more likely to do with political control. Given the woolly nature of the new law, this will be used to silence political critics. Goodbye to freedom of speech.
rap it in woke and its in.
Spot on
And they do like ‘back doors’
Scotland has a duty of removing SNP from government.
SCOTLAND HAS A DUTY TO THE PEOPLE FIRST NOT HUMZA USELESS
Hopefully they will at the next election.
"When injustice becomes law, rebellion becomes duty" V for Vendetta.
They will. Scots through a hissy fit because they knew Labour wouldn’t win. They’ll vote Labour en masse this time around because they are a sure fire bet to win the next election.
Scotland voted for the SNP. this is what they wanted - let them fester in the mess they voted for.
I went on an official tour to Russia in the early 90's. We were taken on a coach tour and at one place we stopped there was a statue of a young girl, it had been placed there in her honour because she had informed the local police that she had heard her parents at home talking together and criticizing the government, they were sent to the Gulag and she got a statue! Say no more!!
I take it that’s one statue you WONT be protecting 😂
I can't find any information on this? Could you please source something? Many thanks
Read Stalin the red tzar by Simon Sebag Montefiore @@TrialoftheMonkeys
Never mind the poverty, alcoholism and crumbling infrastructure in Scotland, lets focus on thoughtcrime instead to distract us from their incompetence.
Nazis Germany springs to mind. Neighbours reporting their neighbours. Appalling.
Even nazi's knew the biological facts.
This is some next level crazyness.
No- one can prove what people say in private, it’s crazy
The actions of ALL extremist governments, left and right, use 'thoughtcrime' as an excuse for persecution; the Stasi, the SS, Chairman Mao's Red Guard, the GRU etc.,etc. The appearance of such a law is an extreme danger signal and needs to be guarded against.
Also Soviet Russia.
I hate to be devils advocate but the nazi party were a majority when they got in , these people aren't.
I despise the SNP for this. They are insane.
did you vote SNP...
The law should not only stay in Scotland, but be destroyed in Scotland.
Is despising the SNP a hate crime😂😂
yip
Scots keep voting them in. You get the party you deserve.
Remember Scotland you decide who is in charge ,,,
How any police officer in Scotland even considers upholding this BS is beyond me! How do they sleep at night.
What about Humza's rant about too many white people? wasn't that racist?
Yes, and he's apparently been reported under the terms of this law already.
Also, Anas Sarwar 's white ,white speach.
@@sandradavies7804He will get away with it because he'll say it wasn't against the law back then.
Excactly. Hence him being reported
@@countryside_guy He cant.. your history can be used against you . enough people complain you never know , who am a kidding . tell you what the police would get more from the public if they did go for him for a change
.
Humza is really protecting his fellow Muslims, trying to stop charges of child grooming, sex trafficking and other obnoxious crimes by using hate crime laws to shut victims up.
in today's society any statement that is considered islamophobic is regarded as racist , you hear it on BBC , which is ridiculous because islam is a religion not a race ,
race is genetic , for example asians have a epicantic fold for starters however you think about that , to me that is just being factual not racist
Religion of peace and love don't you know? 🤔🙄
I agree with Your statement. Come on Scotland!.🇬🇧🏴✌👍
The Scottish laws need to revise what they are focused on. "Sticks n stones will break my bones, but words will never harm me"!!! An old saying, but true!!! The law/police need to focus on REAL crimes, the ones that do hurt and kill people...this is beyond rediculous
But woke insists that words are violence. If that's the case, why don't they shut up ? Oh yeah, other people's words are violence.
It’s ridiculous? The courts and police have been punishing people for any speech they consider racist for decades already.
That ditty was my thought too - these are kids that never grew up. Who turns people in for these things? Sounds like a kindergarten classroom. There are obvious mental issues. It’s dangerous and setting women back 100 years.
Labour in Scotland voted for it as well, expect it to be implemented here if Labour are elected.
J.K.Rowling is a heroine. Good on her.
The law isn't to tackle 'hate crime'... Lets get that straight from the start.
Did you read the The Hate Crime and Public Order (Scotland) Act 2021?
It's to remind women they don't count, and silence criticism of Islam. Sha'ria by the back door.
Its Just A Muslim Blasphemy Law In Disguise
No, it's government control. That's what this is all about.
Straight!!!! Careful.😉
The act of arresting someone could be classed as a hate crime in it's self or the fact that someone reports a hate crime could be classed as a hate crime
Crime is criminal arresting people is not criminal provided it’s a lawful arrest. So how is arresting someone for breaking the law a CRIME please explain for anthropological studies cause you are an anomaly.
@@MrSwanny182 The act of arresting some one is not an act of love so could be classed as an act of hate to report someone for a hate crime could be classed as a hate crime because it could be to get there own back or a total fabrication
Vote these people out of office and positions of policy making.
It's clearly about a certain religion. The trans thing is a distraction
Totally, ofc.
We'll dragged away any minute now - when a Scots muslim is offended by these comments.
Bingo. It's a blasphemy law in the 21st century!
Except that it affects the safety privacy and dignity of every female in the land.
Not just that. It bleeds into 'criticism', so eventually you won't be allowed to speak badly of... the government. That's why it has cross-party backing. Really odious politics
Absolutely and there faith do not think much about woman!!!! Look out ladies!😡😡😡😡
You do not protect various minorities by criminalizing free speech for all. It's pure madness.
it only targets white males or the most part- and Scottish Police are categorical about it when you look into it. Working class, socially disadvantaged young white males, in particular. Eg. victim of huge homelessness crisis... sees immigrants with council houses... "wrongly" feels he's being cheated out of something... blames immigrants... complains! That's a hate crime
There is a difference between hate speech and free speech. If your speech is taking away the rights or impending on others rights then that is hate speech. That’s what she is spouting and it’s pathetic.
Brilliantly predicted in the novel Fahrenheit 451
No, that's the way you build resentment.
@@bumblebee2372no, there isn't. 'Hate speech' has been around 5 minutes. But hate isn't definable, it's an emotion.
One that everyone IS entitled to.
Scottish tourism is going to take a major hit, there will be many complaints from the hospitality industry.
Absolute insanity!
Surely your freedom is more important than your trade.
May all writers, journalists, and artists in general band together against those who love to stifle speech, creativity (as they have none) and humour (again, they have none).
Its Just A Muslim Blasphemy Law In Disguise
Or any blasphemy law
the only religion so special it has its own ..phobia whilst all the others don't.
@@jimmy2k4o It won't protect Christians, I doubt it will protect Jews. It might well protect the new religion of T...+++
The main religion that has it's own protective speech and started the whole "phobia" craze is not Islam, but they use Islam. @@robc8593
@@robc8593 anti semitism?
It is intended as a blasphemy law via the back door for Islam.
You got it !!
Spot on - we have a lot to be worried about. It's like the Nazi party in the 30's......
This too. It's broad enough to be weaponized by anyone.
I won’t be submitting to this illegal law
@@kelleygreengrass in theory but if your opinions aren't similar to government approved opinions then it will do nothing.
Absolutely disgusted with this law and with the SNP for making it happen. They have dragged Scotland through the mud and this act will be the worst thing Scotland is known for throughout the world! How dare they! Thank God for J.K having the balls (or not as the case may be) to stand up for woman and not bow down to this lunacy. Don’t play this game. Humza, you are a disgrace.
The Canadian Liberal Party is attempting too pass a similar Law here in Canada.
BILL as it’s already a law
Thank God for strong WOMEN like J K Rowling!!👊
Robert Galbraith 🤣
Not to take anything away from JK, but she has got lots of money and that's what matters here.
NOTHING TO DO ABOUT HATE, EVERYTHING TO DO ABOUT COMPLETE CONTROL.
Yeah didn't the guards in concentration camps and gulags say ..we were just following orders !!!
Yes as they too persecuted people based on religion, age, sexuality, etc
They were following orders and would have been persecuted/shot/in those camps themselves AND the same fate for their families, that is why we must stop the leaders making Gulags/Camps - don't blame the guards - the political leaders made this an unescapable reality - don't let it happen again.

@@paulrichards6894 thats what i think. Jordan peterson does make good points on these topics however hes like.marmite
@@fairy12324 This process is nothing short of a crime against humanity on a civilizational scale.
Exactly Truth is NOT a hate crime. Politicians are full of hate .
Do not call me CIS woman THAT is a hate crime and definitely offensive.
Well said, thanks!
I fully agree , unfortunately the powers that have initiated this bill don’t agree. This is law designed to only work in one direction.
Good point … does that mean I could claim a hate crime if someone calls me a cis woman?
"TERF" is also a hate crime.
When everyone has been criminalised, that's when revolutions happen.
They've mistaken 'governing' a country, with 'ruling' a country. SNP are showing their true colours, and indicating exactly what will happen to Scotland if they're not removed.
The Scottish have a history of fighting unjust rulers, wether they win or not they will fight on. They picked the wrong place - good luck mussers.
The people who support this law need it to survive in their fantasies
No they need it to be reality in their lives and have it used against them.
Humza is actually trying to bring in the Islam ‘Phobia’ Law
people do not generally change their point of view
@@youtubefans510Neither will I
Eh you haven’t a clue if you think there isn’t already one 🤣
like anti-semitism? Yet they say one exists but the other doesnt
The real hate crime is that perpetrated by Humza Yousef against the Scottish people and culture.
Yea!
Not just Scottish
Agree. This is a total backward move, that takes the Scottish people back to the 12th century
How will anyone prove what someone has said if not in print, it’s ridiculous, one word against another, the world is getting madder and madder
WE MUST NOT ENTERTAIN A BLASPHEMY LAW THROUGH THE BACK DOOR. EVER.
I do not agree with a lot of what JK Rowling says but she is spot on here and she deserves a medal for standing up to this utter nonsense.
Good for JK Rowling.
She's got the money to fight this.
She can’t do it alone. Where are all the strong Scottish citizens. Keyboard warriors not real warriors.

mrs Rowling is right in stating sex is biological
Trust the science, tories in England go to work but don’t go to work 🤣
Well said, this has gone too far already, this nonsense needs to stop now, JK Rowling is an inspiration.
So is Mr Robert Galbraith. You can choose, male or female. She/ he switches seamlessly between the two.
Im surprised the Scottish people have let it get this far..
Enlightenment began with the concept, "I abhor what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." Scotland returns to the dark ages, Eire looks set to follow. Will England too?
Times like this I am glad I am just a visitor to this planet and due to return home soon!

Well said the voice of reason in a world of insane and ridiculous laws especially the SNPs new Hate Crime Bill . 3 cheers for this ex police officer and for JK Rowing , I stand with them both .
This MADNESS HAS TO BE STOPPED NOW! To pass a law that flies in the face of FACT, COMMON SENSE & LOGIC IS GENUINELY INSANE! IT HAS TO BE REPEALED NOW!!!
This woman is a national treasure. Love you J.K.!
When you're unable to define 'hate', hate laws are dystopian.
And to think we fought two world wars to stop men like humus, the new Stasi dictator of Scotland.
I refuse to pretend that a man I am looking at is a woman.
I am so disappointed they are not going to arrest JK Rowling -She and her lawyers would have torn this ludicrous and highly dangerous act to pieces
Hence why she hasn't been arrested, I suspect.
And pay all costs,unless the judge is sitting there in lady's underwear scared to come out
All of the people involved in Police Scotland and the agency they hired that made, presented and disseminated the 'Jo' hate monster that parodied J. K Rowling and agreed to its use at a training course could still be charged with criminal libel for defamation of character! And she could sue them all!
@@andrewprockter1730prove it, all hearsay don’t believe Facebook mate talks 💩

How do MP's agree to a law that protects minorities especially muslims but is aimed at silencing the majority white indigenous Scots.

mrs Rowling is right in stating sex is biological
well said
This is quite a large post by J.K. Rowling that explains her views very clearly. Unfortunately, in the Dutch newspapers they only cited her 'trans women are men' remark, deliberately omiting the foulness she pointed out to. The narrative of her being a 'transfoob' has become a gospel of the liberal left. As a man I totally support J.K. Rowling, and every other woman, for standing up for womens' right and, especially, their safety and fair treatment.
But she did say those things so why not report it. If you want to get your message across be more diplomatic but ROBERT GALBRAITH doesn’t have a diplomatic bone in THEY/THEM/THEIR body 🤣
Since when did it become an irrational fear (i.e. phobia) to oppose mentally ill people and people who gaslight themselves into believing they are the opposite sex after having medicated and mutilated themselves? Yeah. I'll wait.
Don't let them distort and mutilate the language, and never agree to their way of using it, because IF you do you concede to their nonsense.
This is the state of "journalism " today. Cherry pick and misquote.
It's also pointing to the mindless followers of an ideology
No matter the opinions, a fact is a fact. Nobody should be offended by a straightforward fact.
I'm liberal, I'm left-wing, and I stand with JK Rowling.
I feel bad for sane Scottish people.
We all need to drop the prefix “biological “ when referring to men . and women for that matter. No other category required thanks.
A blasphemy law .The trans thing is a distraction ....Try criticising the " Perfect Man " and his child marriage .....see how fast Humza's goons will come to visit.
Nothing to do with free speech everything to do with protecting a certain religious group from hurty words!
its Wokeism ya absolute plank
Starmer has said he won't seek to pass a similar law in the rest of the UK. I don't believe him and I don't trust him.
Perhaps, all the men in Scotland wearing dresses for centuries has got them confused. 🤔
Well done, Rowling!
Side note: as a citizen of a country that used "tolerance" to destroy women' rights, I implore Scotland (and the world) to start fixing this madness THE OLD FASHIONED WAY! And....do it NOW.
Well my first thought was like... the french kinda used the guillotine back in the days to fix their problems... but I don't suppose you want it out of the museum 😅
@@solha4505you would have loved Germany in the 1930’s I’m sure it would have been right up your strasser (street)
What about the white speech he gave, when will woman be treated with more respect,
Let’s be clear. It is not about protecting anybody from harm. It is clearly designed to stop people that disagree with this terrible cult and punish us.
What about legal protections for biological women? Evil and disgusting.
If she is arrested Scotland will look like fools
We already look like fools, this is being laughed at all over the world.
We already do
Which is why they won’t do it.
But that doesn’t protect people less rich and famous than JK
It’s like celebrities who get off with a wrist slap for crimes that the rest of us would get jailed.
they already do.
They will target the poor and weak. Who looks like a fool then?
The people with morals
JK Rowling, you are a boss! But at the root of this is stifling any criticism of Islam and Islamists.
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of EVIL is for good men to do nothing. Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little." Edmund Burke.
We need more JK Rowlings to speak out when ludicrous movements set out to change the world we live in. I am all for change but not when it tramples all over other people's rights and existences. Sadly our political system is fit for the 1930s NOT the 21st century when we all can discuss and make comments as we can here, but not in a meaningful way as to how our country is being run. I would give every UK citizen (the choice to have) a unique log in where they can leave their comments anywhere on government and public sector bodies. I think this already exists for some through Tax log in. Just being able to leave our comments as UK citizens, not some Russian troll, will empower us all greatly and have a say as to what our politicians and public servants are doing on our behalf. Nothing more than comments.
JK Rowling has my admiration, it is so so easy to do nothing. Where are all these female charities such as The Fawcett Society who were set up to stand up for women?
There is nothing stopping you giving your opinion by writing to your SMP, MP or the leaders in parliament.
@@murph8411 I do regularly write to my MP in good old 1930s style. They are our gate keepers or should I say middlemen. My Uncle's MP doesn't reply to his correspondence. Why should we be stuck with a 1930s system, the world has moved on we have improved systems. By all means keep writing to your MP, but let us have a say too.
SPEAK UP SPEAK TRUTH AND OWN IT PEOPLE 👍🇬🇪🇬🇧👌🙏!!!
I've never been a fan of JK but I have to give her full respect and credit on this.
As someone has already said, this so a blasphemy law in disguise, as a Scottish ‘leader’ with strong religious beliefs might be offended. Disgraceful.
Double edged sword? Could a person who doesn't believe in a certain brand of 'invisible friend' complain against the Scottish Leaders flavour of invisible friend - because lets face it, the (unelected) Scottish Leaders flavour of invisible friend is quite an aggressive one.
Only asking for a friend.
I can assure you, if Scottish 'leader' was half as religious as you think him to be, this law would not exist infact, transitioning might cease to exist.
He is not a religious leader, just doing what the majority of scots want him to.
Can't we just ditch Hate Crimes altogether? If I'm punched in the face for reasons of random thuggery how is that any better than being punched for my skin colour?
If you're punched in the face for being white it will be different under these laws. Hate crimes? Are there any love crimes - stalkers do not love you, domestic abusers do not love you, murderers do not love you? Fu**ing madness.
Remember Labour, Libs and Greens also backed the bill
What I object to is Humza getting down in the Scottish Parliament to pray to his Religion.
There should be no way that Religion should be evolved in Politics and vice versa.
Involved? Vice versa would make religion above the law.
I just cannot take this seriously and I’ll keep my speech free .
I despise the SNP for destroying Scotland.
Stand up for free speech, everyone has the right to debate a subject at the cost of offending others, it’s then their job to prove you wrong and stand up for their beliefs, people shouldn’t be arrested for speaking up for what they believe.
Harry Miller nails it again, absolutely spot on for the responsibilities of individual Police Officers across Scotland and the rest of the UK.
Scaries thing to me is labour libs green n a few tories voted it through 🙄
you forget the majority were SNP...
But hardly surprising….
Did you up on The Hate Crime and Public Order (Scotland) Act 2021?
This Act should have gone to a referendum and I think we know what the result would overwhelmingly have been. Those who voted for this insidious legislation need to be voted out by the Scottish people.
If you think SNP have become dangerous, listen to how the greens want to control us.
