its pretty obvious what is going on. He had a court order banning him from attending the school. He told the judge that he was going to ignore it and continue to teach kids so he was jailed. He was jailed for ignoring a court order. All the rest is agenda driven press reporting coming from bias

In his case though I don't get why he is going near the School if there is a court order against him doing that, whether he was violent or not it's not gonna do him any favours with the law.

Of course it isn't, it doesn't matter what the court order was for, he was going to get arrested for breaking it no matter what

To be fair the court order shouldn't have been in place anyway. All he did was use factually correct pronouns :shrug:

i dont deny that. A good mate of mine got cancelled on twitter a couple of days ago for voicing his opinion on transgender stuff. The army of warriors went for him instantly

I’ve read about this bloke and this situation previously, I don’t keep bookmarks of articles in case some questions me though because frankly, I don’t care enough.

In one of the things I read it stated that he was suspended for standing up in a full assembly, in front of students and faculty and voiced his displeasure at being asked to use this students preferred pronoun, essentially targeting and ridiculing the student publicly, he was then given the court order to not be on the school premises because he kept showing up and harassing the head and teachers, ‘violent’ was probably the wrong word to use, but it definitely mentioned that he got aggressive once he was suspended.

It’s about time right wingers started being held accountable for their own actions and stop trying to deflect things, he wasn’t suspended or arrested for his beliefs, he was suspended and arrested because he acted like a dick and broke the law

How do you know he's right wing? Transgenderism isn't political.

I agree publicly targeting the child like that was out of order

Yes I don't like the whole idea of if you don't agree with with every aspect of these Identity Politics, you're far right all of a sudden, I'm left leaning, as is JK Rowling as is Graham Linehan and many others. It's a good way to try and silence those on the left who have questions about this though, for sure.

**I think this guy probably is on the right though tbf, seems like a very conservative religious guy

I do agree that ridiculing a disturbed boy in front of the whole school is very unbecoming of a teacher.

I figured it was something like this. As I can't see police being involved over just a disagreement.

Actually, I can't think of any vocally "gender critical" person who is right wing. It almost always comes from a place of prioritising women's rights rather than being anti-trans.

*I'm discounting the Alex Jones Tier loonies here...
