4 months!
This is seriously getting out of hand and is entirely based on short term public opinion, what happened to judicial impartiality, it has been thrown out of the window.
These sentences need referring to the Lords!
4 months inside for wearing an 'offensive' T shirt??

Yes it's insulting and offensive, but that's all drawing Mohammed is to Muslims, but they will kill you for it and now we our locking people up for it, slippery slope has been stepped on.
I suspect the length of the sentence has much more to do with the fact that this guy is a career criminal with 29 convictions for about 70 offences. Judges don't tend toward leniency with people like that.

I'm not sure how those two match up![]()
To be honest, if that were your sister, how would you feel ?
we subscribe to a social contract
As it offends public decency, what don't you understand about this?
These people are doing something which I consider wrong and deserves fair punishment of some kind - which they would quite likely receive if the law didn't protect them from it.
They're abusing Free Speech because they can get away with it these days, and I do think that's insulting to all the people who fought for Free Speech and died for worthy causes.
Then again, as you say, perhaps we should just call them cunts and ignore them - and let society do the rest. That's probably the "fair punishment" I'd like anyway. The police and the courts should probably be doing better things with their time.
Dammit.
MeWhat stops me reporting all the pages on this forum to the police then?
MeI will come over to where you live, bend you over and fuck you up the arse till you bleed.
Seriously though, I cannot understand how someone can be prosecuted for how they feel however they express themselves... examples...
- Chilly is a fat cunt (ouch I dissed the fat people amongst us, arrest me)
- Zarjazz is a northern bastard (ouch I dissed a scummy minority of our population from Newcastle, burn you fuckers!)
- DaGaffer is a terrorist (ouch I dissed someone who lived in london and moved to Ireland to train in small close range weapons, albeit he was holding his cock for the entire training course)
Personally I think the following:
- Ray Wilkins is a cunt for being a shit tv presenter of football
- Hamiltard is a cunt for moving to Mercedes
- Cameron is a cunt for not being more harsh on the rich bastards of this country
- Ed Milliband is a cunt for being part of labour
- @everyfuckeronFH is a cunt for whatever, bleh.

Fair punishment is to be reviled and shunned by the rest of society. Pretty sure the law doesn't protect them from that.
You can't 'abuse' free speech. And what is insulting to people who fought and died for the idea of free speech is the slow erosion of what people are allowed to say and the encroachment of the State into punishing those who say something the majority find 'offensive'.
Yep, this is how it should be.
