Yet another amazing episode of the gaystapo in action in Not So Great Britain. This time an English grandmother is hunted down by the police for daring to question a homosexual pride march. The terrified 67-year-old was questioned by police over her complaints to a local council about the march.
Here is how the Daily Mail reports the story: “After witnessing a gay pride march, committed Christian Pauline Howe wrote to the council to complain that the event had been allowed to go ahead. But instead of a simple acknowledgement, she received a letter warning her she might be guilty of a hate crime and that the matter had been passed to police. Two officers later turned up at the frightened grandmother’s home and lectured her about her choice of words before telling her she would not be prosecuted.”
The article continues, “Mrs Howe, 67, whose husband Peter is understood to be a Baptist minister, yesterday spoke of her shock at the visit and accused police of ‘wasting resources’ on her case rather than fighting crime. ‘I’ve never been in any kind of trouble before so I was stunned to have two police officers knocking at my door,’ she said. ‘Their presence in my home made me feel threatened. It was a very unpleasant experience. ‘The officers told me that my letter was thought to be an intention of hate but I was expressing views as a Christian’.”
Let’s try to put this into a little bit of perspective. Great Britain was once a solidly Christian nation. Even non-Christians agreed that public morality was important, and that private vices should not be paraded and promoted in public.
The police existed to deal with murderers, thieves, arsonists, rapists and other genuine criminal activities. Frail, white-haired grandmothers had nothing to fear, living as law-abiding citizens. The freedom to speak one’s mind and to voice Christian concerns were everywhere taken for granted.
But that was then, this is now. Today we have a nation that has almost completely sold its soul to the forces of political correctness and the militant homosexual activists. Radical homosexualists are now calling the shots in the UK, and if any dares to cross their agenda, even in the slightest and most innocuous way, they will be swiftly dealt with by the authorities.
And these authorities now appear to be under the complete control of militant homosexualists. Instead of fighting crime, the police now are spending their time hassling old people for daring to utter their Christian convictions in public.
Of course this is not an isolated incident. I have covered numerous other examples of this attack by the gaystapo. It is happening on a regular basis, and decent believers are now living in fear in the police state once known as Great Britain.
Brazen, militant homosexual activists are free to flaunt their outrageous behaviours in our city streets, all at taxpayers’ expense, but if a believer dares to express his concern, the police will be at his door in minutes. Just what has this world come to?
Consider an earlier episode in the UK. Another frightened elderly couple was interrogated by the police for an hour and a half for engaging in treasonous acts against the state. Their crime? They actually had the audacity to want to place Christian tracts alongside of homosexual literature. Here is how the press ran that story:
“A retired couple were questioned at length by police after complaining about a council’s gay rights campaign. Two officers arrived at the home of devout Christians Joe and Helen Roberts to ‘educate’ them out of their belief that homosexual behaviour is wrong. They were interrogated for 80 minutes about ‘homophobic’ views expressed in a phone call and letter in which the couple asked if Christian literature could be displayed alongside gay rights leaflets.
“Saying their actions were close to ‘a hate crime’, the officers warned Mr and Mrs Roberts they were ‘walking on eggshells’. Mr Roberts, a 73-year-old former carpenter, said last night: ‘There must be better ways for them to spend their time. I have never been in trouble with the law.’ The inquisition in Fleetwood, Lancashire, is the latest in a series of incidents in which police have acted against those who oppose the gay rights lobby.”
These are but two more examples of how in the name of ‘tolerance’ a new reign of terror is being unleashed on ordinary citizens in their own countries and in their own homes. It is now a crime to open one’s mouth and say that homosexuality is unacceptable. This is now considered to be ‘hate speech’ and will be prosecuted by the full force of the law.
Freedoms are being ripped away from under our feet, just so that this noisy and quite small group of homosexual activists can impose their will on everyone. And the trouble is, many so-called believers are not only allowing it to happen, but some are actually even supporting it.
Consider this incredible comment about the Pauline Howe case from someone who says she is a Christian: “I, as a committed follow [sic] of Christ but with no affiliation with any denomination, find this lady’s remarks offensive and extremely unlike anything Jesus would have said or written.” Wow, with friends like that, who needs enemies?
The spirit of the age has so permeated and smothered the Christian church, that we get this sort of nonsense coming from someone who ought to know better. The goddess Tolerance has now become the new Gospel, not only for unbelievers, but apparently for some biblically illiterate believers as well.
No wonder we are in such a mess.
