Six police officers over a WhatsApp post.
As much as some people love to throw around the aspersion of ‘Fascist’ or ‘Communist’ without really knowing their true definitions, one thing is a common denominator – both are totalitarian.
Suffice it to say that personal freedoms are few and far between.
With that said, I’m under the distinct impression that the nation that spread the notion of democracy to one-fourth of Planet Earth, that same nation is sliding rather quickly into totalitarianism.
Case in point would be the Hertfordshire Constabulary arresting a set of parents in front of their crying child.
As seen in the Sky News Australia news video (below) and the Standard of Great Britain;
A mother and father have said they were arrested in front of their young daughter and held in a cell for 11 hours after making “disparaging” comments about her school.
Maxie Allen and Rosalind Levine Hertfordshire Constabulary officers turned up at their home after the school objected to criticisms.
The couple were questioned on suspicion of harassment, malicious communications and causing a nuisance on school property before the force dropped the charges following a five-week probe.
Herts police has defended its actions over responding to allegations of “harassment and malicious communications”.
It turns out that this isn’t just a one-off. Unfortunately, this is just another crack in the walls of the preverbally British house that’s about to collapse in on itself.
Here’re just a few examples of what it takes to have the UK police come down hard on you (emphasis mine);
As reported by WalesOnline.co.uk in 2023, Isabel Vaughan-Spruce was arrested because she “might be” praying inside her head inside a censorship zone surrounding an abortuary. Catholic priest, Fr. Sean Gough, was also “charged for praying within the same censorship zone…”
In 2013, Britain’s the Mirror noted the officers in the English village of Smith’s Wood are investigating “Ellie-Louise Cox, four, sister Isabel, seven, and three-year-old neighbour Caidence Leadbetter were accused of “slightly intimidating behaviour”.
The Standard of London cites that a nine-year-old who called a classmate a ‘retard’ is being investigated by police for a hate crime. Also noted that two secondary schoolgirls said another school member smelled “like fish” are also under investigation.
In Hampshire, England, cops arrested an army veteran, Darren Brady, due to his ‘pride flag swastika’ that he shared online had caused someone “anxiety” as cited by Fox News in 2022.
In 2012, Polish professional soccer player Artur Boruc now has a police record for “a breach of the peace” in Scotland. His crime? Doing the Catholic Sign of the Cross during a match, as reported by The Standard of London.
