Me, I intend to continue to call the likes of Tony Blair or Dubya cunts, and if I get a knock on the door by Inspector Knacker I will happy to go to court and prove they are, in fact, cunts.
I've been thinking latley, isn't our Government and system really wonderful? Don't you think that, after all thier wrong doings and mistakes, they really are doing a great job. It must be REALLY hard to do thier job and run the country, I don't think we give them enough credit.
We should be more grateful, I think we should give them a present for thier great job. Our thanks will surley be enough for such honourable men.
That and a fucking bullet in the head.
Yes. And this is why if I rant, I don't mention peoples' names.
I can see how that would be seen as threatening, I'd take it as threat if someone had posted it when my wife had just given birth.
To be fair though, you can only usually get done for threatening language if the other person has genuine reason to believe you would actually act on it. If I said I was gonna bomb London, I wouldn't be prosecuted, whereas if someone with known links to terrorist groups did the same thing, then they would be.
Maybe it's just me who thinks so, but frankly I'd be happy to bet my house that is the meaning intended, and indeed the only meaning such phrase could possibly have. If you're threatening someone you don't implore for God to protect them and thus wreck your plans to do them harm. What sense does that make???
The magistrates were talking bollocks, and I suspect not even them really believe the phrase was meant as a threat. But it became a useful tool to teach the man a lesson, obviously... :rolleyes:
And tbh, if you're going to be infront of a magistrate for something you may have / may not have done, you don't want the other guy to be a copper. You scratch my back, etc.
SG even we dont take you seriously let alone Brown.
I'm a Dad, I can see that as a threat to my child. i certainly wouldn't come near to betting either of my daughters life or wellbeing on any other meaning.
And people makes threats all the time - it may not make sense to warn your target (if that's what you think a threat is), but people do
