Today in TERFS with time on their hands, we bring you another thrilling tale of how JK Rowling is so out of touch with reality that she’s hell-bent on martyring herself for no real reason.
From her castle in Edinburgh, Rowling continues to make completely unasked for comments, statements, and obnoxious tweets that make her transmisogynistic point of view impossibly clear. But for some reason, this isn’t enough for Rowling: now, she’s begging the Scottish police to arrest her on hate crime charges..while on vacation in the Caribbean.

JK Rowling doesn’t just hate trans people: she’s cool with anti-gay hate, too.
Responding to Scotland’s new Hate Crime Act, which puts trans folks in a protected class in regards to hate speech and threats (finally), Rowling went on her usual anti-trans rant, once again implying—when not flat-out stating—that trans people are sex pests coming for your children. When British lawyer Rajan Barot responded to one of Rowling’s Twitter attacks, Rowling responded with “you were asking for it.”

Of course, none of this is anything new. What is new (and hilarious) is that Rowling decided to once again pose as a martyr by begging the Scottish police to arrest her for breaking the new Hate Crime Act…while she remains out of the country.
“Freedom of speech and belief are at an end in Scotland if the accurate description of biological sex is deemed criminal,” Rowling said to an empty room, probably while cackling to herself and stroking her pet Raven. Editor’s note: accurate descriptions of biological sex have not been deemed criminal in Scotland, by this act or any other.
And although the verdict is already in (Scotland fumbled the ball and sadly Rowling remains a free woman even after flagrantly breaking the law), we the people stay fantasizing about her comeuppance.
JK Rowling, welcome to the University of F*ck Around and Find Out.
