jamamafegan Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I think the guy is a numpty for doing it but I think a conviction for this sets a dangerous precedent. Where do you draw the line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongue_tied_danny Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 This walloper calls himself a "professional shitposter" and an "edgi boi" on his Twitter profile. He deserves the jail for that alone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to tease this one out a little, if you're able. Which chip are you referring to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The persecution complex you seem to have taken from your green and white brothers. If you've got such a huge problem with it then why not go complain to the mods? Again.

I’m willing to believe that this case is really just about setting a firm stance that the far-right should be wary of breaching. What’s the likely sentence he’s going to get? scots law isn't based around precedent as far as i know. previous cases can be useful guides but the statute isn't extended by case law as it is in common-law jurisdictions.

mjw Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Hiding 'sectarianism ' behind asterisks is a bit more subtle than using the word 'Greenyins' and actually posting it in green lettering to impress the likes of Tedi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I am outraged by this whole thing. Admittedly i have no real understanding of the facts but i feel very strongly. Tommy Robinson ffs.

Benjamin_Nevis Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 9 in a row? In half an hour IIRC. The threads still kicking about somewhere. He had quite the breakdown over three asterisks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy is a p***k, but he wasn't inciting anyone. Offence alone shouldn't be criminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He put himself in the context of siding up next to a bunch of neo nazis, thereby changing the context from it being a bit of fun to having a more sinister tone. Hoisted by his own petard.
