United States Corrupt Twattery

So, to treat the obvious things:

So what if you can't be locked up?!

Prison is a really serious thing. It's total deprivation of your liberty at the hands of the state. Don't trivialise it. It's THE thing.

Nope. Feeding yourself is THE thing.

Gayyyyyyy.

How's a stay at home mum going to feed three kids if dad's been locked up for holding a fucking placard up?

You know. Actual things, that are actually happening in Blighty right now. Not fantasies of what might happen in the US if someone can't find another job (which, of course, they would).

Oh, btw - I went "Gayyyyyy" there.

Nobody took offence at that did they? You didn't feel targetted, or harrassed? If you did please don't report it as a hate incident.

UK police guidance says if the victim or any other person perceives hostility based on sexual orientation, it is recorded as a hate incident. By victim, this means anyone who didn't like me saying it.

So even as I clearly didn’t mean it seriously, if one of you feels it’s hostile, it can be logged.

And employers can take action if this is reported. I.E. I could lose my job. It can involve the police turning up at my house.

This was happening long before Trump. And is the legal reality of life in Blighty.
