Christian preacher Rob Hughes arrested and held in a cell after false homophobia claims

Gotta admit FD, you have a point about PC running amok. Seems worse in England.

Pretty scary.

I guess we can officially put "free speech" in Great Briton to rest along with all those other silly democratic notions that they were once so famous for.

Apparently, all you need now to prove guilt is an accusation from a special interest or minority group.

He should be asking for more just to ensure this doesn't happen again.....he can donate the proceeds to a charity.

I know he didn't say anything but I still don't get it, homophobia isn't against the law as it's defined as an irrational fear of or aversion to homosexuality... although "discrimination" has been added to the definition... it's like arachnophobia.

But there are treatments available for that... not for the spiders or homosexuals, because of course they can't change their nature, but for those who have that irrational fear.

Well we've seen Britons arrested for quoting Churchill. Will ministers be arrested for refusing to marry gays next?

Marry gas???

They should find the stupid dyke and charge her with criminal mischief. It's also funny how the cops can be so pushy about demanding to see what's on your cell phone(if you have one on you) but in this case refused to listen to the preacher's dictaphone to get the evidence(or lack thereof).

Of course if some shitpump like Choudry had been publicly speaking out against homosexuality, the cops wouldn't have done a thing about it. Oh wait, they would have protected his "right" to be an asshole.
