Arrested for Singing “Kung Fu Fighting”: Another Blow to Free Speech in England

In recent years, free speech in the West has been facing a concerning trend of being restricted by various laws and regulations. From anti-blasphemy laws to hate speech prosecutions, the suppression of speech critical of religion, sexuality, or even physical appearance has been on the rise. England, in particular, has been a prominent subject of such stories. The recent arrest of musician Simon Ledger, 34, on the Isle of Wight, for singing “Kung Fu Fighting” is yet another example of this worrisome trend.

The Incident

Ledger and his band were performing at the Driftwood Beach Bar on the Isle of Wight when a man of Chinese descent walked by with his mother. The man yelled profanity at the band and made an obscene hand gesture. The incident was ignored by Ledger until he was contacted later that night while eating at a Chinese restaurant and asked to come to the police station. Upon his arrival, he was promptly arrested.

The Astonishing Aftermath

The Hampshire Constabulary's decision to continue investigating this incident is astounding. Instead of disciplining the officers who made such a ridiculous arrest, they seem to be searching for evidence that Ledger has played “Mad Dogs and Englishmen.” This move is nothing short of a gross misuse of power.

The larger issue at play is England's continued trend of criminalizing forms of speech. The country has demonstrated how these laws can be used to silence individuals with unpopular views and establish majoritarian speech standards. This alarming pattern is a threat to the fundamental right of free speech.

Conclusion

The arrest of Simon Ledger for singing “Kung Fu Fighting” is yet another example of the restriction of free speech in England. Such actions demonstrate how easily speech can be criminalized, and those who speak out can be silenced. It is important to remember that the right to free speech is a cornerstone of any democratic society, and we must continue to fight for it.

Free Speech and Alternative Media are under attack by the Deep State. We need your support to survive.
