Someone is nasty on Twitter and the Police are called?

[Crimson Dynamo]

really?

[Jarrod]

Yes. Someone told Tom Daley that he let his dead dad down. He's worked hard as anything to get where he is. He doesn't need some stupid idiot on Twitter who thinks he's as hard as anything slating him.

[Smithy]

he made death threats, i think thats why the police got involved

[Mrluvaluva]

Liam Satcey served 28 days in prison over his twitter outburst with regards to Fabrice Muamba.

The boy who was arrested just said a nasty thing, I dont think he made a death threat?

[Crimson Dynamo]

Liam Satcey served 28 days in prison over his twitter outburst with regards to Fabrice Muamba.

Was that not racially motivated?

[Smithy]

He went off on one again later on saying he'd find him and drown him in the pool

[Mrluvaluva]

Was that not racially motivated?

Yes. Any kind of threat or racist outburst is not tolerated.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Yes. Any kind of threat or racist outburst is not tolerated.

So if i tweeted that I thought lady gaga and justin beiber were utter crap and that their music was formulaic tripe that hoodwinked their pathetic fans into parting with their money the police would be arresting all the people who made threats to me?

[Smithy]

I am going to kill you for that ****ing ****

[Smithy]

thats not a death threat arista

thats what we were all thinking

[rSlavenx]

100% correct that the police should be involved in this. The boys entire timeline is absolutely vile, his tweets towards 'Olly Riley' and Tom Daley are disgusting. Then the YouTube video is threatening and racist, not to mention psychotic.

[Crimson Dynamo]

is "i could kill for a Greggs pasty" a death threat?

I never said it was?

[arista]

No thats a Joke

[GiRTh]

Its got out of hand TBH. I dont believe that freedom of speech means freedom to be abusive, as many twitter users do, but I do think the user should be banned and nothing more. Idiots like this are the cost of having such a service.

[Shaun]

He was clearly issuing death threats to a number of people as well as Tom Daley, and pretending this is some kind of infringement upon human rights is just sill-oh it's LeatherTrumpet.

Yes Shaun he is a 17 year old that loves playing the Evil one (not getting sex)

[Jack_]

Yeah I expect it's the death threats that warranted the arrest, he makes them all the time towards Olly Riley as well. Telling him he's going to come and kill him and his family etc. He does it all the time so it seems just enough to me.

That proves he can not get a Girl.
So he is a typical loner.

So can the Police/Courts stop the 17year old going online?


Is that possible?

[Omah]

IMO, any persistent abuser who uses the mask of an online service to insult and harass others should be located, arrested and pilloried ..... :pipe:

[the truth]

its a load of trviial nonsense, the police dont bother with hard crime anymore they look for a few stupid things on twitter and ignore most of the mega load of drugs that destroy the nation as well as all the violence in the nightclubs and repeated crime and harassment, their 101 answer service goes to a call centre , thats a joke, police station close early so you can never get a cop when you need one, people get battered and theres no cop in sight, yet there they are arresting people for peeing down lanes, talking rot on twitter or heaven forbid hassling drivers 24/7 they even ask for all drivers documents , when they dont even need them>? all the mot, license, number plate, tax details are on their databses in each police car? by asking for all documents, theyre making massive extra burcocratic work that runs to tens of millions of photocopied pages and faxes, all at our expense.....the fact they are up to their eyes in the newspaper corruption says it all, not fit for purpose , oh I better say allegedly

[arista]

"look for a few stupid things on twitter and ignore "

Wrong they sent 2 officers to tell the Punk off
Warn Him etc.

The Police have had Cut Backs
they do not need you going on about your own warped view.
