UK woman arrested for silently praying across from abortion clinic

Sources please!

From the clown who insists that she was arrested for protesting at this site before but when asked to support that claim gets testy and tells you to look it up yourself.

It wasn’t about “freedom of thought” though. We don’t do that here.

Who exactly are you trying to convince?

How could any law control what you are privately thinking?

You have an example staring you in the face.

Ha ha! You're funny!
One moment you folks tell us that we are commies, the next you tell us we are far right nazis.
Is that some kind of Schizophrenia?

Nazis are only far right compared to communists. They are socialists just like other forms of fascism.

Lemme be clear --- when I use the expression "leftist pinko commie" (or some such), it's pretty much in jest, but I'm realizing most people no longer get that.
It actually comes from the "All in the Family" series where Archie Bunker called his daughter and son-in-law such names because they were liberals.

I'll try to rein that in, as most people don't get the reference.

Merely following orders is not a defense.

Clearly someone phoned the police.

Wasn't it someone walking up to the bobby and complaining that she might be praying?

I don't remember, but my whole point was playing down the fact that the cop was some kind of hostile thug acting out of some kind of... whatever.

Which county are you in? I'm in Kent.
I get the feeling that these folks can blow hot/blow cold....... when cops do stuff that they like they are angels, or otherwise they are demons...... sort of thing.

Cops are humans. Some behave well, some behave poorly. When they behave heroically, we laud them. When they abuse their power, I (but not many others here) refer to them as the Fascist Scumbags they are.

Aberdeenshire. The folks here are a little overexcited because of the prayer thing and are not thinking clearly. I am fairly sure the court case will be very straightforward.

I still don't think you get the concept of "if God is for me, who can stand against me" and "for me to live is Christ and die is gain".

No I don't.
Do you know what a deist is?
If you spend even a short while on research you might discover how I don't 'get' that at all.

A computer client of mine put me up in a really nice hotel in Houston while I rebuilt their File Server. My wife went with me, and she slept while I went across the street to work on the server from 8pm til about 6am, then I came back to the hotel and got in bed.

It wasn't long before she woke me up, and pointed to the TV and said... "look at this".
I honestly thought it was some action movie like Die Hard or something - then she said 'watch this' - and started flipping channels, and it was on every channel.

Yeah...... I stood in a crowd of folks outside that tv shop, at first we though it must be a dreadful accident, and then the second plane hit the other tower.

The passengers on the plane that fought and died to save a similar mass-murder, I remember them as well.

I don't think you are so bright....honest. And you're insulting!
You've been ranting about the need for proof for so long .... so many times.
All you have done is show that you have not got the ability to just watch a short video and comprehend.
I'm going to help you, here is what the Constable told her.... now pay attention:-

Why don't you 'Look it up yourself'?

PC:I'll ask you once more, will you voluntarily come to the police station with me to answer some questions about today and further days where there are other allegations that you have broken public space orders?

Your post was No 1054........ gotta remember that......!!

Are your politics to the Right of Communism, Fascism and Nazism?
Oh please do come back and tell me more!

Are you telling me that the Constables involved in this arrest abused the power?

Beautiful Country! But colder than Kent!
Yes, excited folks cannot have listened to what was said before the arrest. Journalists have spun the 'arrested for prayer' report to flog papers and media contributions.
