Nurse punished for calling convicted pedophile ‘Mister’
In another example of how extremists are demanding that all of society submit to a minority’s transgender ideologies, a nurse in the United Kingdom has been punished for calling a convicted pedophile who preyed on boys “Mister.”
It was claimed to be offensive, of course, because the offender was “transgender.”
A report from LifeSiteNews explains that nurse Jennifer Melle, of the National Health Service, was disciplined and now is responding with legal action against the Epsom and St. Helier University hospitals.
“She was investigated and disciplined last year for referring to a male patient – a large, six-foot, homosexual and gender-confused pedophile – as such,” the report said.
Christian Concern reported that the patient, whose name was not released, is held “in a high security male prison after multiple convictions for luring boys into sex acts while pretending to be a teenage girl on social media.”
Melle explained, “Ever since I have expressed my Christian beliefs under extreme pressure, I have been a marked woman.”
The male pedophile was being treated for a urinary problem, and while discussing the case with a doctor and not knowing he claimed to be female, Melle used the words “Mister” and “he.”
The fact the patient is a man was significant because of the options for medical treatment.
She confirmed, “This was a real-life medical scenario that required accurate terminology to avoid any doubt between medical professionals.”
The patient, overhearing, erupted in rage, demanding he be addressed by pronouns used for women.
Melle said that violated her faith, but she offered to call him by his name.
According to the report, the patient responded by physically lunging at her and using racial epithets.
Officials overlooked the patient’s rage, and instead disciplined Melle, the report said.
And she’s still be assessed for her ability to work as a nurse, the report said.
“I have been put at risk, but I am being treated like a criminal,” she said. “Sadly, if you put your head above the parapet and speak truthfully on these issues in the NHS, the risk is that you will be knocked down, punished severely and demoted.”
