Do they think he was in prison for all those years for writing to his representative?

Already done it.

MP Alex Davis Jones went on national morning television to defend the government arresting 500+ mostly pacifists and pensioners on terror charges for a protest against proscribing Palestine Action, where she compares them to the IRA and other 'terror groups'.

Her previous claim to fame, she had two of her constituents raided by police in the middle of the night and charged for writing letters demanding action on Palestine.

Someone on here got knocked on the door by the police in Ingerland because they wrote their representative something mean

I saw that. I don't believe those were the same incidents. I've heard of others though that didn't get the same press

compares them to the IRA and other 'terror groups'.

[–] CthulhusIntern@hexbear.net 2 points 9 months ago

OK, point taken. These days, it would make sense to think he got arrested for that.

Most likely, yes, or possibly for making speeches. Liberals prefer to try to deduce events rather than look up what actually happened.

"Deduction" is a very generous term here. It's more like "I think non-violence is good. I think this guy is good. Therefore, this guy is nonviolent."
