Man arrested for offensive tweet (UK)

[The Laughing ManParticipant 1020]

“Police said a 37-year-old, believed to be the son of an owner of the Rhondda Cynon Taff company whose van was used in Monday’s attack, is in custody.

Richard Evans allegedly posted: “It’s a shame they don’t hire out steam rollers or tanks could have done a tidy job then.”
His father, Lee Evans, said he condemned the remarks.
South Wales Police said a 37-year-old man was being held on suspicion of displaying threatening, abusive, insulting written material with intent that is likely to stir up racial hatred.

Comments made by an account under the name of Richard Gear Evans Facebook, which were then shared by others on Twitter, read: “Glad I’m not running the van hire the police wouldn’t like what my answer would be.
“It’s my dad’s company I don’t get involved it’s a shame they don’t hire out steam rollers or tanks could have done a tidy job then.”
The comments and account profile appear to have since been deleted.
Lee Evans said: “I want to condemn in the strongest possible terms these ill-considered Twitter comments, which in no way reflect my own view or indeed those of anyone else in the family.
“The attack in Finsbury Park was shocking and cowardly. Together with all the staff at Pontyclun Van Hire, I am doing everything I can to assist the Metropolitan Police in their inquiries.”

Darren Osborne, 47, from Cardiff, is being held on suspicion of the commission, preparation and instigation of terrorism, attempted murder and murder following the incident at Finsbury Park.
On Tuesday evening, the Met’s counter terrorism unit was given an extension until the early hours of Saturday to question Mr Osborne.
The attack in Finsbury Park happened as an ill man was receiving first aid from the public near the mosque, where people had been saying Ramadan night prayers.
The van was apparently driven at people who were helping him.
Police said they were still trying to establish if there was a link between the man’s death and the attack.

The man died and nine people were taken to three London hospitals, while two others were treated for minor injuries.
Witnesses said they heard the driver, who was detained by members of the public before police arrived, shout: “I am going to kill Muslims.”
One of Mr Osborne’s neighbours said they thought they had seen him sleeping in a van on Saturday night.
South Wales Police confirmed that 24 hours before the London attack it had responded to a 101 call following reports of an “insecure van” in the Llanedeyrn area of Cardiff.
Officers found a man asleep inside, but no offence had been committed.

I thought what I'd do was I'd pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes...or should I?

I would never have a Twitter account. Or a Facebook account.

I would also never live in the UK.

Very true, though, how long till they come after all internet sites? All verbal speak?

This stuff happens in steps, small and unassuming, then pile on till it’s too late.

If this was in the US, I’d already have a list of relatives of the police who enforced such a law, photographed those relatives’ houses, and sent a package anonymously to the police with those house photos, along with a message that continuing to enforce police state laws will result in they and their families being treated the same way the French resistance treated Nazis and their sympathizers.

IMHO, if you enforce Nazi laws, you are a Nazi and should be dealt with as such. Police enforcing police state laws (as well as the politicians who wrote those laws) should fear that their families will be killed. The elites need to feel terror, that their existence is tenuous and that their luxurious lifestyle, indeed their very lives will end should they continue to act like dictators.

This sort of reaction is PERFECTLY proportional and justified. If you disobey one of their Nazi-like laws, and resist being taken away, they will murder you. And that’s what it is: murder. Their enforcement of said immoral laws carries with it an implicit threat of murder; why should they not be treated in kind?

All my life I've had doubts about who I am, where I belonged. Now I'm like the arrow that springs from the bow. No hesitation, no doubts. The path is clear. And what are you? Alive. Everything else is negotiable. Women have rights; men have responsibilities; MGTOW have freedom. Marriage is for chumps. If someone stands in the way of true justice, you simply walk up behind them and stab them in the heart-R'as al Ghul.

That’s a very good question. I can’t answer it for everyone, but for myself and my family, I have two answers, one pragmatic and one philosophic.

My pragmatic solution is to prepare myself to move to another country where things will be more tolerable if things get so bad here that I can’t stand it any more.

My philosophic answer is this: Things that cannot go on forever, won’t.. Even though it would certainly not be easy, I actually look forward to the collapse of our totalitarian system and its debt-and-death, dollar-based system. If I were nihilistic, I would say, “just let it all burn and let humanity die.” But I think it’s more akin to amputation… sometimes you have to cut off a limb to stop the gangrene from killing you.

So.. Umm.. Is the government also going to arrest anyone one else for their tweets or just tweets against muslims and women?

There was a time in my life when I gave a fuck. Now you have to pay ME for it

How many Nazis at Nuremberg said, “I was just following orders”? All of them.

"Don't follow in my footsteps...I stepped in something."
