In my opinion.
The police have stepped in and charged a man. He is being accused of making a comment about Captain Tom that was offensive. The comment was a nationalist rant and was based on a statement by General Sheridan.
Rather than Captain Tom the target of this statement has been many other people – and Donald Trump retweeted the same statement recently when referring to Democrats.
And in another case somebody has been docked £25,000 by a court for leaving a review that talked about “scam solicitor”. Not sure why he didn’t use the autocorrect defence, “Where did that a come from”.
I’m astounded. I’m furious. I see, daily, statements by anti-vaxers, conspiracy theorists, extremists of all varieties that I find much more offensive than either of these statements. Why are the trolls not in court?
So always remember not to claim facts – always make sure everything you write is “in my opinion”.
