I’d love to know where they’re going to house all those convicted of hate speech? Jails are bursting!
She'd only love to be reported and investigated! If they go after her they'll open a massive can of worms.Jk Rowling is doing a thread I suspect she has been saving for just the right moment….
Could be anything , including a termination if she fell pregnant from the abuse ,all can affect fertility .Reading these things about the physical implications potentially harming a fertility journey - can anyone elaborate? I don't really understand? Do you mean that she was *internally* physically harmed by him and it affected her falling pregnant naturally?
The thing is she has done something powerful here as if they go after people who don’t have the financial means she does for saying the same thing then they can just point out if she hasn’t been arrested.She'd only love to be reported and investigated!

Apparently Humza Yousaf has been reported a fair bit already because of his speech complaining that all the important jobs in Scotland were held by white people.
dear god I hope that's not the caseCould be anything , including a termination if she fell pregnant from the abuse ,all can affect fertility .
She's forcing their hand for sure. She'll definitely be reported and how they treat her case will have an impact on all other similar cases. Fair play to her. Even outside of JKR, I think this law is going to be a shitshow for Scotland and a massive headache for the police.The thing is she has done something powerful here as if they go after people who don’t have the financial means she does for saying the same thing then they can just point out if she hasn’t been arrested.
I remember reading a book yrs ago ( Toni Maguire “ Don’t Tell Mummy “ ) autobiography of the abuse she suffered, very humbling and stayed with me all these yrs, it’s horrifying what victims go through.dear god I hope that's not the case![]()
That’s what I heard yeah, that they were trying for a family, went for further investigation and the discovery was made that she had been ‘damaged’ as a child. It’s from a text I received that is doing the rounds so I don’t know the origins of it or if there’s any truth to it at all.Reading these things about the physical implications potentially harming a fertility journey - can anyone elaborate?

Yeah. I think free speech is important. I don’t think anyone should be abusing people but being offended by something is very subjective.She's forcing their hand for sure.

Yet we’re subjected to GOV FUNDED annual parades calling for our deathYeah. I think free speech is important. I don’t think anyone should be abusing people but being offended by something is very subjective.
For example, I don’t like the “ooh a up the Ra” chants from the Wolfe tones and find it offensive/insensitive but I know a lot of you have the polar opposite view but I don’t think you should all be locked up for it.
Good God, appalling if true. I guess we may hear at the end of the month - if he makes it back to NI that is.That’s what I heard yeah, that they were trying for a family, went for further investigation and the discovery was made that she had been ‘damaged’ as a child.

I don’t want the orange order funded either. As there are far better things to spend the money on. And I don’t agree with those songs. But I think you missed the point I was making about who decides what is offensive or hate speech. I would say the RA one glorifies violence but “up to their necks….” Would fall into a hate speech category but it will be interesting in Scotland when the next old firm match is on as there will be literally thousands of complaints from both sides because the bill appears to be about perceived offence.Yet we’re subjected to GOV FUNDED annual parades calling for our death…Will the hate speech bill cover this

absolutely sickening. she is so brave to come forward.That’s what I heard yeah, that they were trying for a family, went for further investigation and the discovery was made that she had been ‘damaged’ as a child. It’s from a text I received that is doing the rounds so I don’t know the origins of it or if there’s any truth to it at all.
So you would agree that the OO isn’t about culture ,only sectarian hatred? … Different people will get offended by different things how can you police peoples principles?I don’t want the orange order funded either.

They're determined to censor people.

I think if the OO were solely doing a religious thing then that would be fair enough however they let paramilitary bands march with them and act like twats so yeah.

They should leave them too it! No need for a heavy police/ press presence at such a small gathering.I think if the OO were solely doing a religious thing then that would be fair enough however they let paramilitary bands march with them and act like twats so yeah.
Better at marching than this lot though

Looks bad here. Hopefully no one gets hurt.
From reading that bel tel article it seems like they didn’t notify parade’s commission? Or notified late? Or parade’s commission notified police late? Videos online appear to show youths with crates of petrol bombs.They should leave them too it! No need for a heavy police/ press presence at such a small gathering.
