Thought Police in The UK??

From the AP article in Post #4:


Sounds reasonable, protects the patients from the protesters who seek to force their beliefs onto others.

"Patients"? You mean the helpless innocent unborn new human persons growing in the first home given to them where they are nourished to complete their growth till their time to be birthed into the outside world?

^^ the reason people "praying" are not allowed near entrances to these clinics.

I ran across this article on another site I frequent. Sadly, I believe this is really happening in the UK. Here's an excerpt from the article:

A British Army veteran was convicted of expressing “disapproval of abortion.” This man spent 20 years proudly serving his nation. Yet, the Public Spaces Protection Order has deemed him a criminal for silently praying outside an abortion facility. He has been conditionally discharged and forced to pay a $12,000 (9,000 pound) fine for daring to pray in public.

The above video shows how disillusioned the authorities have become. “What is the nature of your prayer?” the police asked, to which the man replied he was praying for his deceased son. He was then told that he was praying in a “censorship zone,” where even your THOUGHTS can be criminalized.

Here's a link to the entire article:
Silent Prayer Prohibited

Intimidation, even if in the guise of prayer, is intimidation.

I understood, and I was just looking for you to understand my post. I actually did not read much and only commented on what I read. I don't usually post in this forum section because it's too volatile for me. And I'm not referring to you when I say that, I'm referring to much stuff I've read long ago in this forum. So, to each his/her own. I will keep to the easy sections, I have too much hard stuff going on in my life now to deal with anything else.

Well, it's quite simple - rarely, if ever, are these people simply praying.
