    US Conservative Activist Brittany Pettibone Is Being Held in London’s Colnbrook Bypass Prison as Political Prisoner

    UK abandons free speech completely illegally imprisoned an American Citizen. Illegally imprisoning American citizens for exercising basic human rights is something I would expect to see in a country like North Korea not the UK.

    They have the right to decide who enters their country but they do not have the right to illegally imprison americans.

    It depends on whether she broke British law or not while there.

    Which I am sure is tied to what is illegal under British law. There is no first amendment in the UK which has no written constitution. Even in the US speeches which cause riots can be blocked and have been.

    That rights and legitimacy mean nothing in a world dominated by criminality and amoral hunger.

    True, this is indeed a diplomatic incident and I'm very disappointed in the UK's response. It also leaves their cries against Nationalism/"far right" parties to be totally laughable. They should extradite this American back to the US to face whatever charges she's facing. And if it is mere incitement, we do not have EU laws here.

    Holy shitznitz... They've had them for two days. I don't agree with Sellners politics but his views and other far right speakers and groups/political parties all over Europe are gaining alot of traction. In Italy the far right party is by some margin now the strongest. It's a natural predictable reaction to progressive liberalism infatuation with Muslims.

    But this. Whistles. Well it's London and it is arguably the Capital of all things progressive in the world not just figuratively but literally. Particularly in regards to Muslims. That group has literally taken over Britians capital.

    Brexit did progressive liberalism a serious blow and 67% of UKs voters still support it despite the EU doing everything in its power to make it as painful as possible. Also the London Mayor is 100% against Brexit and criticizes it constantly. Screw what the majority thinks.

    Britain is 5% Muslim and London is around 12% Muslim with a Muslim mayor and 100% progressive leadership infrastructure...

    Yeah you have all that and you have a prime example of just how intolerant Progressives are to any view but their own. Which is the detainment of these kids. You have an opinion that's critical of progressive policies or Muslims in a city they own? In jail you go.

    London is by far the textbook example of my theory of how Muslims take over cities and countries. The population threshold of over 10% pop is needed before they start trying to exert effort in the political infrastructure.

    Intolerance of other views is one thing they have in common with Progressive leftists. So they are natural partners.

    The UK is a seriously hot mess. Why would any American want to emulate anything about how they run their country.

    Totally.

    Sadly, the UK will probably send her back (and the USA will have to deal with this Mentally-Unhinged Tinfoil Hat).

    Btw--I had never even heard of her.

    Isn't it great to have the RW BS Factory to keep us up into date on these "Important" people?

    Brittany Pettibone? :roflol: Who? :roflol:

    Next. :bored:

    I would imagine you could be detained in the US if it was believed you were deliberately fostering a riot. Regardless they have to obey British law in Britain. It might be pointed out the current British government is Tory not Labor.

    Unbelievable that this is the same nation that produced George Orwell. If they (UK) don't like the opinions of Brittany Pettibone they should simply return her to her own nation and get back to the business of rotting from within.

    This backwards thinking makes no sense to me. The people who commit violent acts all because someone said something they didn't like are the real criminals. If violence is allowed to silence speech then the violent are allowed to control opinion and eventually rule.

    When you go out and say Muslims are going to kill you or rape your family what do you think is going to occur? Or you say to a black audience that white policemen are going to kill your children if you don't do something about it?

    If you deliberately stir up violence you should expect a government that does not want violence is going to do something about it. Few if any other country in the world has as many protections for those who encourage violence as the US.

    This is a violation of a human's rights of freedom. In of itself shocking from a member of the G-7, but the fact that it comes against an American is even more harmful. UK-US relations are harmed by this, as far as I'm concerned.

    As a sovereign nation, they have a right to decide what is and isn't illegal, subject to some limitations (e.g., genocide, etc.).

    I doubt they hurt by this at all. A much worse case was that the British government refused to send someone who hacked into the US computer systems to harm them to trial in the US or to try them, a policy set by the present PM. That was a lot more egregious than this and had no impact on relations.

    Counter with signs and speech and statistical evidence that states otherwise and makes the other people look like the ignorant people they are. Or they can use violence and show that that are in fact the violent people they are accused of being. One of those two. In any case, speech is always the proper resonse to speech. Violence or authoritarian use of law will only lead to a broken society or abusive government.

    So there's more cases of incidents like these. Frankly, you can't call it a 'special relationship' if you don't treat your friends the right way. I'd be making hay right now if I were President. It's a big deal to treat my country's people the same way I'd treat yours.

    how do you determine if someone intention was to deliberately stir up violence unless they come out and say go commit acts of violence
    any criticism can be construed as an attempt to stir up violence

    Violent people don't respond to logic or speech. Do you think you would stop a Hitler or a Stalin by reasoning with them? Or their latter day decedents.

    You look at what has occurred where they spoke before. And you logically analyze what they say. Its not hard to understand when people are deliberately supporting violence or not, particularly when they have an existing track record.
