I've just read a news article about a man who's been imprisoned for eight months for wearing a t-shirt celebrating the deaths of police officers Nicola Hughes and Fiona Bone.
Now I don't know about you but I think that by giving people punishments for saying controversial and offensive things we give them more of a platform. If this insane person was ignored instead of imprisoned no one would have heard what he has to say.. Now it's plastered all over the national news.
But of course people can't ignore it can they? Why get annoyed or offended over it, yeah what he said was disgusting but he only did it to get a reaction- so don't react! We're supposed to have freedom of speech in this country but that's slowly being taken away by those who aren't exercising their right to not pay attention to it.
Better yet, exercise your right to freedom of speech and call him a wanker!
Come on, this guy's shirt said 'kill a cop 4 fun.com ha, haa?' he clearly has his 5 A-Cs.. Don't give him what he wants.
