Brickbat: Reading Problem

Julian Foulkes, a 71-year-old retired special constable in the U.K., says he is suing the Kent Police Department for wrongful arrest. Foulkes was arrested and handcuffed at his home by six police officers after he tweeted a warning about the rise of antisemitism in a reply to a pro-Palestinian activist. The tweet was flagged by the Metropolitan Police Intelligence Command despite only having 26 views at the time. He was detained for eight hours, booked, fingerprinted, photographed, and swabbed for DNA on suspicion of malicious communication. He accepted a warning out of fear it might affect visits to his daughter in Australia, though Kent Police later admitted it was a mistake and removed the warning from his record.

Reason has a funny habit of arguing both sides of an issue.
This is wrong, what was done to that man but it is not analogous to deporation of students on visa WHich is the issue. Showing this does not cast doubt on anything else !!!! You do not do that to citizens. This all started with bad homosexual decisions at the SCOTUS, Bostock and Obergefell. Like abortion and drag queens
etc all it did was add a huge amount of hate to American life.

Nobody destroys freedom like the modern liberal does.

"Alito, Thomas said that the court's decision "enables courts and governments to brand religious adherents who believe that marriage is between one man and one woman as bigots, making their religious liberty concerns that much easier to dismiss.""

You and Soros point to Karl Popper but you don't really see what he ended up believing : if intolerant ideologies are allowed unchecked expression, they could exploit open society values to erode or destroy tolerance itself through authoritarian or oppressive practices. The best illustration is how Biden's tolerance gave us these two in high government

Homosexuality and abortion are perverted attacks on humanity. Gays have rights but only as everyone else does, as human beings, not as lust machines. In trying to be Biden-like-tolearnt we end up with 2 homosexuals adopting a boy . I say long prison sentences for such an abomination

Where is the Reason writer, above, making any statements about what is good and what is bad? Inquiring minds want to KNOW, damn-shit!!!

WHY did Reason SNOT condemn Attila the Hun's barbarism, in this article? Or the cannibalism of Idi Amin, for that matter?

(Have You ever PervFectly HEARD of a "just the facts, Ma'am", NON-editorial article, Oh PervFected Wonder Child?)

The tweet was flagged by the Metropolitan Police Intelligence Command despite only having 26 views at the time.

How many must he radicalize with his inflammatory tweet before it is worth the crown's notice? 26 is more than enough to start a wave of thought independent of the government's narrative.

It is the same as the number of toys a child can have. The specific number is still being decided.

Leave that to the experts.
