This ‘wild’ law could per chance be very ‘touching on’: Kerri Kupec Urbahn

Carrie cuper Bond Fox News legal editor and former counselor to attorney general Bill bar under President Trump uh Carrie first of all we we call them migrants and I have no confusion around the word and know the difference between that and an illegal immigrant because we don't know if they're here legally or illegally we do know they're from.

Venezuela and that it they'd been in that house for over a year so we're still piecing parts of this together you want to talk about this today how do people deal with with this the New York legal system is such a mess and in this particular situation I blame the judge Harris did you know that this judge who let these migrants off without baale um.

Did the same thing for two migrants who beat up that cop in on a New York City subway platform in November it appears to be the same judge I didn't know it was the same judge appears to be the same judge according to our research so that's problem number one and then problem number two of course you have the squatter laws in New York City you.

Know the fact that these guys have been living in this basement for as long as they have that owner of that building wouldn't even legally be allowed to lock the door he would be charged with a crime if he lock the door to not let them back in after 30 days which is just it's crazy and you know I think part of the problem in addition just to the to.

These bail reform laws that there was a a piece of legislation that was passed in 2019 that eased restrictions on bail that's where this really started but then what exacerbated it was Co if you remember during Co there was a lot of concern about inmates being house and jails and the spread of the disease so they eased up on these restrictions even.

More and I think we're continuing to see the effects of that play out even right now I mean Co was a snapshot in time now oh I know and I'm hoping we learn some lessons not the least of which is you don't soften your crime laws behind the pandemic when everybody hits the streets again particularly the criminals that's a lot that you just told us thank you.

For sharing your research on this judge uh let's get to this major Free Speech concerns over Scotland's new hate crime law it makes it a crime to say something insulting about someone's age disability religion sexual orientation or transgender identity so if you misidentify someone that's a hate crime in Scotland that comes with a maximum.

Sentence of seven years in prison what if you can't tell the difference what if it's an accident Harry Potter author JK rling uh dared Scottish police to take action she posted if they go after any woman for simply calling a man a man I'll repeat that woman's words and they can charge us both at once ring added freedom of speech and belief are at the.

End in Scotland if the accurate description of biological sex is deemed criminal Jimmy faila called out the hypo hypocrisy let's watch if the speech is controlled as are the people so for that reason I applaud this all way and again this is the tolerance crowd once again telling you that they will imprison you for.

Disagreeing with them which if anybody wants to Google tolerance I promise you it doesn't involve imprisoning the people who disagree a new opinion piece with this headline Scotland's idea of hate speech can't be accepted in the US is this a slippery slope Carrie oh yes and I would argue it's already happening in the US in Colorado do you remember.

The baker masterpiece cake shop Baker who won a case to the Supreme Court a few years ago well the state of Colorado has continued to persecute him specifically with respect to him refusing to bake a transgender celebration cake this is an ongoing case that's still happening in the state of Colorado the Colorado Supreme Court has.

Agreed to hear it it was a transgender activist who asked Jack Phillips to bake that cake um for him and on top of it also asked for a cake of Satan's smoking marijuana Jack Phillips as a devout Christian said baking these cakes and uh using speech and expression this way would violate his conscience and his beliefs and he has been penalized for.

This and now he's back up at the court again wait a minute are they targeting him over and over again yes and this particular activist even said and this is documented that uh they submitted this request to quote correct the errors of his thinking so when people are looking at what's happening in Scotland I would say well take a look at what's.

Happening in Colorado because it's not that dissimilar so you know I always think about the danger when we make so much out of of something that isn't actually what it is so what about real hate crimes in Scotland or real hate crimes in America where people you know get H killed they get brutalized so on and so forth how.

Does misgendering someone calling a man a man even though he may be dressed up as a woman how does that how is that equal right and to your point hate crimes were traditionally understood at least in this country with some of the awful things that we happened during segregation the Civil Rights Movement the KKK and all that and awful awful.

Things uh some of the anti-semitic attacks that we've seen over the last year in our own country which has shocked I think a lot of us not even realizing this was happening here in the US and these are obvious um examples of hatred but saying that a biological man is a biological man and somehow the government construing that as hate is.

Just it's wild and and that's the concerning aspect of these laws and it's not just in Scotland you see some this this has been a trend that's emerged across Europe and again uh where it happens in the US is in the context of these local anti-discrimination laws well well I guess they'll come after journalists next because every time we.

Do those those stories about women and girl Sports and biological boys and men's men in them I guess I would be thrown in prison for seven years because I'm not going to lie by telling the truth in that story so journalism is next we'll watch it a new California bill would let employees legally put their bosses is ons silent The Proposal.

Says workers must have uninterrupted personal and family time outside of working hours that means if you're boss calls or send you a text message and when you're not on the clock you can legally ignore them without punishment fines for breaking the law begin at $100 the assemblymen who introduced the bill explained it this way smartphones have.

Blured the boundaries between work and home life workers should not be punished for not being available 247 if they're not being paid for 24 hours of work carrye so this is an interesting uh proposal a similar piece of legislation passed in Australia pretty recently uh it certainly makes things tricky for an employer uh they need would need to at a.

Minimum of course they'd have to review the way they do business and you know at least with respect to Australia there were a bunch of parameters that were set within this law as it like um what is the person's job what are reasonable expectations of them answering the phone what are their family obl and things like that but it certainly uh.

Would make things interesting that that's a lot of detail someone's life so if you know if I prefer to have nap time during a certain afternoon hour I wonder if that would qualify for my boss can't reach me and by the way work ethic watch out because for those of us who will do the work 247 I guess we'll just keep the jobs in Australia I think hinged on the.

Reasonableness aspect of the refusal so that's that's what they honed in on there all right Carrie it's always great to have you in fcus thank you good conversation today I'm Steve duy I'm Brian kill me and I'm Angley aart and click here to subscribe to the Fox News YouTube page to catch our hottest interviews and most compelling.
