‘Fearless’: JK Rowling dares police to arrest her after Scotland passes new hate crime law

Sky News host Liz Storer has called JK Rowling “fearless” after the author dared police to arrest her following Scotland passing its new hate crime law.

Scotland has received major backlash for the new hate crime law which many have questioned over whether it goes against freedom of speech.

“I would follow this woman into battle,” Ms Storer said.

“Like seriously, she is fearless.

“She rightfully repeatedly points out free speech is dead, it’s gone and buried if people cannot accurately talk about the practicalities of biological sex and call it as it is.”

There is no such thing as 'hate speech'. There may be speech that you hate, but "hate speech" does not exist.

Ruining someone's life over supposed hate crimes will motivate those people to commit REAL hate crimes.

Scotland's so-called leaders have made a mockery of this once proud nation and it's the people who gave them the vote who are guilty.
