    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.

    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.

    Watch out with one of those comedy t-shirts. I wouldn't want to see you being picked up by a boob head. Sorry, I mean enforcer of the law. I wouldn't want to be upsetting those sensitive cunts would I now? Ooh your colleague is dead! Boo fricking hoo.

    They protected one lot because there would have been a riot which would have endangered public safety. When there is a planned protest, there will always be a police presence. It's not because the police force are pro Islamic extremist.

    As for the guy with the Tshirt, he's an attention seeking idiot but I'm not sure it warrants jail.

    So the difference is - one lot informed the police of their intention to offend the public beforehand and the other didn't. Makes sense.

    The punishment system in our country is broken. Too harsh sentences at times, too generous mostly. I see some things and it really doesn't make sense.

    People are getting sent to prison now for writing a message on twitter or making a Facebook group. Happening a lot.

    Yet steal something, beat someone up, you'll get some community service and a small fine. No fine if you have no job.

    Well I kind of feel him, I've been in the same situation!

    When you feel for wearing your favorite T-shirt and you're are not allowed too you obviously shoulnd't get locked up! Even if it said something like his t-shirt did! Just take it away and rip it apart, dont make a huge deal out of it.

    My situation was that I had a shirt that said; smile if you take it in the ass, And I understand why they took it away from me nowdays, It was stupid of me to even have it on to school, I thought it was fun at the time... Young and stupid!

    But the guy who's on the news is just redicilous, one of thoose guys who didnt grew up.

    And in some cases no fine if you have a top job and declare bankruptcy after manipulating millions off to your relatives.


    I think its a mess also due to the known cost of changing or rewriting written law. They all charge a fortune and would bankrupt each state if every law were to be even reevaluated, aside from actually changed.

    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.

    Sure it was insensitive, but so are most of you. People have a right to be so. I don't like restrictions on speech and I particularly hate the way the UK is going. Twitter arrests, an obsession with being PC, and now 4 months for a tshirt?

    If we are to arrest everyone for being hateful and insensitive then we would be arresting everyone including me and many of you.

    And no, you can't even express yourself in public as those same police will kettle you and potentially commit acts of violence against you. I have little sympathy for all too many of their kind.

    I think that's ludicrous too.

    And what's the difference between this silly cunt and all the muslim extremists that express similar views in public?
