If life gives you lemons, then go to jail for 25 years.

Just weird.

He isn't charged with possession of a lemon, he's charged with supporting a group that is functionally at war with Turkey because he was found at or near one of their protests.

Half a lemon being used as proof is funny though, even if it's valid considering these circumstances.

That was more or less the original tagline that got me to click on the news story. I feel guilty for making a misleading title here, especially since I just wrote a paper last night on the dangers of misleading language as described by George Orwell.
