And seeing as she is a sucker for far right propaganda I would imagine there’s a lot more to the story than what she says but there’s no way I’m going to give one of her dumb videos a watch lol

It appears to be this case:

I'm a free speech absolutist, so I'm against the types of dispersal orders that led to this arrest. But Lilith isn't. I remember her clutching her pearls hard over the protests in L.A. a while back, begging for somebody to do something.
So, yes, her principles are very selective.

I agree, her usual tactic is to never let the truth get in the way of a salacious headline. If you want highly edited, no context, right wing, pearl clutching videos then Lilith is your man.

I'm not sure. But I want all of the files released, save for the names of the victims. I think there would be a lot of guilt by association if they just released a list without context, because he was probably in contact with people for business reasons who weren't involved in sex trafficking.

Any reason you are deliberately missing out the part where this was done outside a mosque as part of a protest?
Regardless of whether it is justified to arrest people to prevent escalation you are missing out a key detail.
You are not going to be arrested for simply saying "I love bacon" in public.

Yes it is.
Saying "I love bacon" is a completely innocuous act.
The implications of being arrested for that are dystopian beyond anything Britain has ever lived through.
Saying it during a protest outside a mosque is clearly an act of incitement.
They're not just randomly sharing cooking recipes, they are taunting the people inside the mosque.
You can say it's not a severe enough act for an arrest but missing out this detail is dishonest.
If you want an honest conversation about free speech you don't leave out key details.
Not unless you feel your argument requires deception in order to have any merit.

Literally not how the law works. It's not illegal to yell fire in a crowded theater, even if there is no fire. More importantly, saying you love bacon isn't close to the same thing. The first engages a survival instinct which can inadvertently cause a stampede and result in death. The second can only cause harm if the someone deliberately chooses to cause harm. That is on them. Just because someone or a group have irrational sensitivities does not get to decide what the rest of us are allowed to say.

youre cherry picking and misleading as well…youre being slashnaughty! vast difference seperates knowingly inciting a riot and the proclomation of love for
a breakfast meat. one must have thicker skin than the bacon itself
Cold comfort for change? Did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
