Two bailed after arrest over Twitter comments about Woolwich murder - Crime - UK - The Independent


LOL you can get jailed for talking shit online in the UK?

 

[Fiver]

This is exactly why free speech needs to be allowed.

 

[microphone head]

All depends. We've had a couple of cases here where people have posted racist shit and got arrested.

 

[Veritas]

You assume you have freedom

 

[Cshark]

Unrestricted freedom is unrealistic, hence doesn't exist.

"The men were arrested under the Public Order Act on suspicion of inciting racial or religious hatred. Our inquiries into these comments continue."

I don't know exactly what was said, but freedom of speech doesn't protect those trying to incite acts of violence (though I'm not sure suggesting we should be lynching people falls into this category). It's not protected by the 1st amendment and it's certainly not permissible in the slightly more uptight UK.

Didnt we just have a video of a bunch of muslims marching chanting to hell with Englands cops, or something similar? I mean really? Thats ok?

Apparently, you can't even write unflattering things about other races or ethnic groups without risking imprisonment in the UK. I'm guessing the law primarily applies to whites.

Yeah, sucks, but that's our speech laws for you. The girl who hit the cyclist deserved it, but I don't have any problems with free speech.

I should mention though, that talking shit online in the US gets you threatened by the FBI and your car bugged.

Probably, but at least we're probably less likely to get terrorism charges for owning copies of the Anarchist's Cookbook.

Possibly. Don't forget that 1984 has already hit your country with thousands of gov't surveillance cameras.

Do you believe that your country has not?

We have Big Brother but gov't camera surveillance is nothing like it is in the UK.

I actually believe Huxley won the game.

 

[mattseh]

charlesmartel, just curious, have you ever been to the UK?

Don't fool yourself.
