A lot of rightist nut jobs are trying to say it was freedom of speech. It wasn't, it was contempt of court laws which Yaxley Lennon pleaded guilty to breaking.

Nice to see that the BBC is still OUT RIGHT Lying.

Truly the English are the New Fascist Nation in the Making.

I was already aware of this. The UK has weird laws about trials. Tommy was filming outside a courthouse and got in trouble. In this country you can at least do that. Sometimes cameras are allowed inside, sometimes they are not. In the UK it is different. Tommy did this before, got in trouble. Then he did it again and...here we are.

It's stupid, but no it's not a free speech issue because they don't have free speech in the UK.

Yeah as much as you hate the eeeevvviiiils of the youtube ranters, Sargon was actually pretty upfront and honest about the details of this from the beginning

It's just funny how they try to act like everything about this was rational, but they had a friggin gag order on the story for a brief period of time.

I have not seen a single person make the argument that you are making about Tommy Robinson. I've heard many many times over, and even from Tommy's own mouth that it was due to the contempt of court charge.

However, I do see that an argument can be made that the contempt of court charge is an indirect violation of freedom of speech. So I will take that stand right now to characterize that strawman you are making. I am become strawman for you.


So, there, you have a person now making that claim. It was a violation of the freedom of speech.

Putinbot1
Oh, lots of people made that claim, especially on social media. The argument, in reality, is less about free speech and more about rule of law. But rightists don't like rule of law because it prevents them restricting civil and religious liberties.

I don't get it. He was restricted from a "free speech" action. And he refused to play along with what he saw as a clear violation of a freedom of speech AGAINST the government (very specifically what the US's First Amendment is really about and we stole that idea from England).

How is him getting his civil liberties violated actually him trying to restrict the civil and religious liberties of others?

Or are you making a commentary about his opposition to Muslim Rape gangs?

From his pictures, he looks like a very minute man, will he be enjoying himself with the lads in prison?

I think it's cute how he changed his name in a feeble attempt to sound less foreign.

The EU wants to effectively ban memes as well. Sad lol. What a shithole.

The truth of that is similar to Trump and his MS-13 bullshit, Trumpers and their drivel.

Oh so you are saying what they wanna do would in fact not effectively ban memes?

That sure is great news.

That sure is great news. Copyright is something which millenials do not really care about. To be far it's just your SOPA on steroids. How's banning porn going in the US? Weren't you guys doing that?

It seems like you are saying it potentially could ban memes. So which is it?

To be honest I do not see it as enforceable whilst the US has fair use, they can't even enforce against streaming and downloading millions would be in court. It's ridiculous and will not happen.

You assume they'd go after every single person who breaks the rule with a meme. Seems unlikely. Just like in this country it's illegal to pirate stuff online. Most people who get flagged for doing it...do not get taken to court. Worst case scenario is usually their ISP sends them an email telling them they are aware this person pirated something and they will list the specific file.

I feel like if there is the potential to go after people for memes even going after 1 person would be an abuse of the law and reason enough it should not be enacted.

Going well? Eh. Going better than the shithole EU? Yes.

Don't worry though...if leftists in this country have their way our gradual slide towards a similar situation as to the one in the EU will continue.
