The Harry Potter author described several transgender women as men in a series of social media posts.

JK Rowling has challenged Scotland’s new hate crime law in a series of social media posts - inviting police to arrest her if they believe she has committed an offence.

The Harry Potter author, who lives in Edinburgh, described several transgender women as men, including convicted prisoners, trans activists and other public figures.

She said “freedom of speech and belief” was at an end if accurate description of biological sex was outlawed.

Earlier, Scotland’s first minister Humza Yousaf said the new law would deal with a “rising tide of hatred”.

The Hate Crime and Public Order (Scotland) Act 2021 creates a new crime of “stirring up hatred” relating to age, disability, religion, sexual orientation, transgender identity or being intersex.

…

Ms Rowling, who has long been a critic of some trans activism, posted on X on the day the new legislation came into force.

    She’s the female version of Trump except with money and actually self made. They’re both garbage humans and think that they’re untouchable.

      Nah. She wrote her own book, is less rapey, abd was moderately cute when she was younger. Plus, she’s a bigot because she hates herself, was less tacky about her house, and isn’t ever funny.

      They arguably deserve to end at the same gallows, but are not the same shit head.
