Watch Out GFY - Now You Can Be Prosecuted For Poor Taste Jokes...
 
Quote:

A student who said on Twitter that people wearing Help for Heroes T-shirts "deserved to be beheaded" was arrested after complaining to police about threatening replies, a court has heard.

It was in bad taste but I see worse (I have probably told worse) on here - Fucking ridiculous...

it wasn't a poor taste joke at all, she knew exactly what she was doing and only came up with the idea that it was a "joke" as a way to wriggle out after she found herself the subject of death threats and police investigation. she is no better than the scum who killed Lee Rigby and doesn't deserve the police protection she is now given.
Those fucking extremists who blight Britain now get away with so much by hiding under the "PC" banner.

I think this probably is a bad joke and not a political statement - If her name was Sally Smith would you have come to the same conclusion?..

Sorry, poor word choice - He is alive an well as far as I know...

speaking of, i should prolly queue up a john waters flick soon.

as for the op, that tweet could certainly be considered hate speech. at the very least, it's in poor taste. i didn't find it funny, so not sure if that's an after the fact excuse, although that sort of humor is not my type.

I doubt anyone would sincerely try to argue that wearing a particular t-shirt was a valid reason to behead someone, so the tweet was quite obviously a 'joke'.

if her name was Sally Smith then she would be doing time right now. In the UK threaten to burn a Quran and get jailed, burn poppies while preaching hate and get a £50 fine.
jail for speaking anti-muslim, suspended sentence for attacking and beating up a white girl while screaming "kill the white bitch".

Only one time for one scene. After filming, he got worried and called the hospital to see if he was in danger.:1orglaugh He didn't swallow. It's a sick movie but there are some classic lines and scenes that still crack me up every time I see them.:upsidedow

I have every film he made (with of course exception of the couple early shorts he never released and keeps vaulted). It's a dirty shame that "A Dirty Shame" may be his last:(

There was supposed to be a sequel to Pink Flamingos called Flamingos Forever. I read the screenplay in a book called Trash Trio.

Race has to be considered. Why is a muslim calling for the killing of anyone wearing a military charity t-shirt?
