JK Rowling Dares Cops to Arrest her for Misgendering Trans People After New Woke Hate Crime Law
New York Post ^ | April 1, 2024 | Melissa Koenig

Her next book could be Harry Potter and the prisoner of Trans-kaban. JK Rowling is daring police in her native Scotland to arrest her for misgendering transgender people after a new woke hate crime law took effect Monday.

“Freedom of speech and belief are at an end in Scotland if the accurate description of biological sex is deemed criminal,” she wrote on X. “I’m currently out of the country, but if what I’ve written here qualifies as an offense under the terms of the new act, I look forward to being arrested when I return to the birthplace of the Scottish Enlightenment.”

Scotland’s community safety minister Siobhian Brown told the Telegraph on Monday that Rowling’s remarks could be reported to police and investigated.

They can call themselves anything they want. I can call them anything I want, too. Free Speech...Nothing at all to do with “hate”.

As I recall, not too long ago, Rowling was all for LGBTQ and socialism.

I love it when the Left eat their own.

I used to be a five alarm flaming lib.

Maybe Rowling is in the midst of a better late than never epiphany.

NY Post did not dare to publish those photos JKR had posted on her 1 April tweet. They can be found at the link below, unfortunately (and obviously) behind a paywall.

At least three of these lovely “soi-disant-women” have commited rapes or sexual assault on young girls. Two of them were initially incarcerated in prison for women, due to the idiotic Scottish laws.

I think she is still a fag-hag, but she definitely does not like trannies.

True, but if we believe in freedom of thought and freedom of expression we must stand up for our rights!

You mean like chestfeeeding men? Well, that’s about as perverted as you can get and that’s their words.

That may be in more ways than one, she definitely gets off on being a victim. Not to say it should be dismissed as unimportant but to believe as she apparently sincerely does that this is having any kind of notable or profound effect on the women’s movement is simply ludicrous.

They will arrest her months from now, in the middle of the night, after they make up “a crime” that she “committed”....

The US must stop funding the defense of all these ridiculous European countries. Every single one of them needs to stand on their own and accept the consequences of their wokeness. Even if that means being conquered by other countries.

You recall correctly. She was right there with them. She even declared the head wizard in her stories was gay. The moment she said something the woke mob didn’t like they turned on her with a vengeance. She found her good will bank account with these sick creeps was empty. Now they want to arrest her. No chance of that.

She is just speaking truths that not long ago would have been accepted and unchallenged by virtually everyone.

How far we’ve fallen is quite a testament to the power of the Left.

She still is. She actually supports transgenders, except for where it impinges on women.
