Excellent. One less serious threat to the public.

ArabellaScott · 29/02/2024 19:20

Tiffany Scott was a man from the day he was born til the day he died. At least women prisoners in Scotland won't have to worry he'll be transferred in with them anymore.

Redshoeblueshoe · 29/02/2024 19:21

Good

Vaz66 · 29/02/2024 19:21

Good riddance.

mzdemeanour · 29/02/2024 19:21

Oh dear, how sad.

Rainbowshit · 29/02/2024 19:22

Women will now be safer. Good riddance.

lifeturnsonadime · 29/02/2024 19:22

Good, he was vile. No longer a risk to women.

CantFindTheBeat · 29/02/2024 19:23

It just beggars belief how the news team can refer to him as a her all the way through.

What the hell is going on with the world.

betterangels · 29/02/2024 19:23

He was quite clearly a man. A violent and dangerous one. There is one less of them now. That's not a bad thing.

Tiffany was never going to be moved to a female prison. That was made extremely clear.

Also every article I've seen has mentioned that Tiffany was born Andrew and was transgender.

They were clearly a very disturbed and dangerous individual.

NotTerfNorCis · 29/02/2024 19:24

I wonder if Scott would actually want to be remembered as a 'woman'.

SirSamVimesCityWatch · 29/02/2024 19:26

It's not often I'm glad to hear of someone's death, but I am pleased to hear that this very violent, disturbed man is no longer a threat to society - including those in the prison estate.

They don't. In the article the OP quotes there is this paragraph:
He was then restrained by Mr Melloy and another guard, Gary Kane, who was punched on the side of the head. The thug, born Andrew Burns, was convicted of carrying out the attack and two others.

How come when he was previously known as Obi Wan Kinobi no one took him seriously but because he identified as Tiffany Scott he was recognised as a woman?

VivienneDelacroix · 29/02/2024 19:29

Scott also used to be known as Obi Wan Kenobi. This isn't a trans person, and that was very clear to everyone, including those who made the decision not to approve any request to move to a female prison.

CantFindTheBeat · 29/02/2024 19:30

@VivienneDelacroix

That singular 'he' is obviously a search & replace fail.

It's the only one, as opposed to - I haven't counted them - but maybe 20 'she's?

What are you arguing against here?

They have explicitly refered to him as she throughout the article.

Using his name would have sufficed.

Datun · 29/02/2024 19:32

Nasty, violent man gets the pronoun pandering because of trans ideology.

'Scarlet Blake's crimes have also been recorded as being carried out by a woman.

Spot on. Rather like identifying as a cat is ignored but identifying as a woman isn't.

IcakethereforeIam · 29/02/2024 19:35

I wonder if that's the name that's going on his tombstone, recorded on his death certificate, and the prison service will record that a woman died behind bars. I expect they'll be an inquest from which nothing will be learned because from the off they've buggered up the basics.

How would anyone know that? I thought acceptance without exception was what was required? Also, that nobody would ever put themselves through the exhausting dangerous business of saying 'I identify as a woman' unless they were sincere?

ValerieDoonican · 29/02/2024 19:36

Well just read through quickly and refreshingly , I didn't see any shes, only "they" "Scott" "the thug" and that lone "he".

And a picture of a bloke looking like a bloke.

I wonder if thereis a subbing arms race going on at the herald? What will I see if I click in 10 minutes?

GolfForBrains · 29/02/2024 19:36

That link is showing as "they" for me?

IcakethereforeIam · 29/02/2024 19:38

Must have been a rapid rewrite. It was all 'she' when I read it a few minutes ago.

The article has presumably been edited. There is not a single 'she' or 'her' in it. One 'he' and otherwise 'they' and 'Scott' throughout.
