But I dont think we should have laws against "blasphemous" speech. And I think the law needs to be careful about ensuring that there is proof that someone was inciting violence and not just saying offensive things. For example... we cant have people opening up class rooms teaching racist hateful idealogy. And just say call that free speech.. if they are teaching children to believe that all people of a certain group are evil and should be exterminated for example. That should not be legal.

Where's the 'issue'? We're nae 'havin' that in Bonnie Scotland.

Good grief, what's happened to Scottish common sense? Vote hateful socialists out!

And we have our Government looking at arresting those that live on our streets, fining them £2500 and/or sending them to prison, so laws that won't work but will take police away from solving day to day crimes including murders, drugs, knife crimes and burglary. Laws that distract from other more serious matters.

Rowling is the most important person from the UK since the Beatles; leave her alone.

I would like to see j.k Rowling voted 🗳 in as next minister for SCOTLAND.🙂👍

But have recorded it as a non crime hate incident as the offended persons word that it is hate speech is all that’s needed as no evidence or proof is required to record a hate incident. It would also be enlightening to find out if the first minister has non crime hate incidents recorded against him from all the reported hate incidents against him. Probably not as it’s up to the police and their perception of the hurty words.

Labour Party & conservatives , are new Islam ☪️ party . Vote Reform.

I’m more shocked there are pathetic wimps out there calling the police and complaining about her. Pathetic.

Just to clarify - saying that transwomen are biologically male is not misgendering - it is in fact a fact. Nothing to do with whether or not you choose to be respectful and use a person's preferred pronouns.

Forcing people to say what you want them to say is compelled speech. Yes it usually applies to government but it should apply to civil or private speech!

Its not just about trans/anti trans, its about ANYTHING that anyone thinks is hatefull, i.e. race, religion, politics etc. By concentrating on trans rights is just a "smoke screen" to try and blind people to that reality.

religion and politics are exempt. read the bill. if you don't think demeaning people on grounds of race is hateful then your face has a boot with your name on it.

Just because you want something to be ok, doesn’t mean it is.

3800 cases in 24 hours. This is unwokeable.

JK is the only sane voice in this histeria stirred up by those who dream of destroying humanity.

The Scots have forgotten basic nursery rhymes. The Boy Who Cried Wolf springs to mind

it's a fable not a nursery rhyme. the subtle clue being the fact it doesn't f*cking rhyme. you absolute spanner.

The very fact that they have resorted to making this medieval law proves how desperately unpopular are the views they are trying to push onto the public.

How could they not see this coming?

Normal people like JK & agree with her

well done JK - a great service to women in the UK

Repeal the laws of physics while you’re at it. Gravity is getting me down

How does thus law work? If I'm English, does Scottish police can arrest me? What if I'm from outside the UK?

JK Rowling is a hero.

Not criminal!?!!? This is a disgrace!

I stand by JK ROWLING 100%

What an absolute joke!! Well done JK Rowling!! Freedom of speech!! Will live in a democracy not a dictatorship!! Chuck this law out!!
