4 months in prison for wearing a hateful t-shirt....yay for free speech Britain!

[Mark TKO]

I agree with Miles on this one - although the guy doesnt deserve to be alive he shouldn't be locked up for wearing a t shirt no matter what it said.

But the moment he put it on all his rights as a protected citizen (though he didnt deserve to be) should have been waived and anyone should have been able to give him a good beating, tortured him, even killed him - without fear of punishment by the authorities.


Hope he gets buggered senseless in prison

Bit like a funeral though isnt it, turn up to one with a shirt that bags the deceased or what he did for a job equals lose your civil rights. Its either one way or the other.
I say fuck him and dont care who does it.

[Saddo]

I personally think its a good thing to lock this loser up.... the respect in this country has gone with people thinking they can just do whatever the fuck they like in this kids having kids generation.

I would like the see this type of low tolerance adapted to everything... it would be a far more civilised environment to live in if it was IMHO

I'd like to see the stocks brought back. Seriously

This guy is a right wanker. Making a mockery of the deaths of two female police officers who were just trying to do there job. I'd rather he got stoned than 4 months in jail.

[Gandalf]

Don't get me wrong, I think he is a twat for wearing a shirt like that, but I don't think you should lock people up for being twats. I believe in ones right to free speech, you cannot force people to be nice to one another and erase all negative platitudes.

When you start to accept limitations on ones right to say what one feels, no matter how much you disagree with it, then you are heading down a slippery slope.

[Mark TKO]

yep or you'd be locked up straight away

off to harrogate for another session in an hour or so by the way.

[TitoFan]

I think the guy deserved getting jailed. You can express yourself against the police without being so callow and insensitive. Think of the victims' families.

On another note..... Reebok must be mortified.
