Scottish Police Worry More About ‘Misinformation’ Than Child Prostitution

13 8

In an interview with me, a local resident of Dundee has detailed the police disinterest that he encountered when reporting a profoundly concerning instance of child sexual exploitation that he had witnessed first-hand.

This stands in stark contrast with the speed and intensity of the police response after Scottish Lassie was filmed taking her viral stand in Dundee: Local police officers rushed to arrest, charge, and report her for the mere crime of possessing a knife, even though the widely viewed video footage showed she was clearly acting to defend her sister.

Initially, the police signaled that they would not charge anyone else in relation to the incident, only to do a U-turn, over a week later, and only after global outcry. Then, they decided to charge two unnamed adults with unspecified offences.

Rumble screen grab.

Police Scotland rapidly mobilized its PR machinery to warn about purported “misinformation” circulating online about the incident. Scotland’s political leaders then stepped up to amplify this warning, bizarrely accusing Elon Musk of trying to “undermine that sense of cohesion in our communities” and stoking “fear and alarm” by posting about the incident.

The entire machinery of the state was applied to criminalize Lassie and berate those voicing support for her. But what does the very same machinery of state do when confronted with reports of child sex trafficking?
