Liberals are losing their minds over Vice President J.D. Vance's speech at the Munich Security Conference where he criticized mass migration and the erosion of freedom of speech in Europe. I don't see why Vance should be demonized for stating the truth. The most recent edition of "60 Minutes" featured a panel of Germans who determine what is hate speech.
“Half of the internet users in Germany are afraid to express their political opinion,” says German lawyer Josephine Ballon. She says free speech needs boundaries. https://t.co/IwjN7gLogB pic.twitter.com/MRbZWdSfoj

The Biden administration made great use of the FACE Act (Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances), throwing elderly women in jail for up to 11 years for praying at abortion clinic entrances. As I've reported a couple of times, police in the U.K. have arrested people for praying silently — in their heads — across the street from abortion clinics. Massachusetts tried to set up "buffer zones" around abortion clinics back in 2014, but SCOTUS shut that down as a violation of the First Amendment.
In the U.K., however, they still have buffer zones around abortion clinics. That's why you can be arrested for praying silently — within the buffer zone, you're not allowed to do anything that would convince a woman not to go ahead and have an abortion.
In this new video from Scotland, a woman is arrested for conducting a "silent vigil" in one of these precious buffer zones.
🚨BREAKING🚨: Scottish police filmed applying “buffer zone” law to “silent vigil”, despite recent denials from the Scottish government! 👮♂️

“Am I committing an offence?”
“Yes, I believe you are conducting a silent vigil”
Vance was right. The law IS being misapplied to prayer!🏴 pic.twitter.com/Gsm0x4yspM
The woman being targeted by police was Rose Docherty, a woman holding a sign reading:

Hey BBC, do you reckon you owe JD Vance an apology? pic.twitter.com/g8KkZZPnuB

"J.D. Vance made incorrect claims about Scottish laws at the Munich Security Conference." From this video, it seems he was dead on with his claims.

In Scotland you can’t pray in your own home if someone outside can see you.

Anything is fine in the buffer zones as long as it isn’t Christian.

Its that simple
The same cops who allow Muslims to block motorways while praying.

Yes, Muslims can set up their prayer rugs in the street without incident.
But wait, there's more:

"Are you aware that there is a Public Space Protection Order in place here" — around an abortion clinic.
This is what police in the United Kingdom have been reduced to.
It's not just abortion; you can be arrested for criticizing migrants.
DISGUSTING: A British man wrote on social media that he doesn’t want to see Palestinian flags all over the UK.

The police then showed up to his house at 4am to arrest him. You can take over the streets of the UK, chant in support of terrorism, but be arrested if you oppose it. pic.twitter.com/e5rjM1oGiX
England is lost. How sad

The police exist to protect abortion and protect Muslim migrants from British citizens. Not violence, just speech.
Vance told Europe some hard truths.
