Hate Speech Law Backfires!

Scotland’s recent legislation on hate speech is backfiring in a huge way, as local police precincts are being massively inundated with calls.

Josh Sigurdson reports the Orwellian laws include terms like “insulting” or “offending” someone who is in the LGBT community by not calling them by their gender preference or correct pronoun, an offense that, in some cases, could  lead to as much as a seven-year prison sentence.

Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling is among those fighting this tyrannical law, calling on the Scottish police to arrest her. Sigurdson says there were 8,000 reports filed with police in the first week of the law alone, most of them false. More from World Alternative Media.
