"Congratulations UK, you've arrived!"
Maybe he just got tackled rough in a game of “Smear the Queer” and the gay comment was just being euphemistic. Like, instead of saying “Get off me you Faggot!” He just said “your gay.”
Well, it’s a lot easier to push a 10-yr old boy around than arrest terrorists or rescue sailors, isn’t it?
Feminist/Nazism like this is why the West is DOOMED....
Well you silly, that's because real criminals are so disagreeable and they might hurt you. It's so much safer to go after small boys who call each other names.
Meanwhile the Mad Mullahs in the mosques call for all Gays to be crucified.
The English have gotten so silly that perhaps the muslims can straighten them out.
Whoa! Bad hair day.
The 4 officer arrest is clearly over the top, but I find it a bit suspicious that we’re not being treated to the full text of the e-mail, or at least relevant excerpts beyond a single 3 letter word. If there were also threats of physical violence, then it’s a serious matter, regardless of what names the sender did or didn’t call the recipient. I’d also like to know a bit more about this kid’s disciplinary history at school. If he’s an established playground bully who makes a habit of beating up the weak and unpopular kids, aggressive intervention is warranted, though not the way it was done here.
The arrest of the kid who didn’t want to sit next to Asian classmates was also over the top. But I fail to see what the arrest and fine for throwing a snowball at a (presumably moving) car, has to do with either of the other incidents. Throwing snowballs at passing cars is calculated to startle the driver, and can very easily cause an accident involving property damage, injuries, or worse — there’s nothing “politically correct” about dealing with this as criminal activity, when the perpetrator is certainly old enough to understand the potential for harm. An arrest, followed by an approximately $200 fine and apparently no prison or other detention sentence is quite appropriate — even a tiny fender bender with a car parked on the side of the road would incur much costlier damage than the amount of the fine. And most likely the kid had “priors”.
Hasn’t everyone been called one name or another. I know that I have been called names and have called others names too. I called this one girl when I was 11 “Lucewhale” because she was so big. She scratched underneath my eye with her fingernail and that was the end of that. I was 11!!! Why can’t kids be kids and learn from stupidity? I would never do such a thing now, but at 11? I guess I would be behind bars in today’s world.
We in the U.S. are headed down the same road. First the country was feminized, now it is being homosexualized, pedophiled, and transgendered. Next up, the homos will gerbilize in public parades and objectors will be jailed.
“considered it a very serious offence.”
these are the same incompetent bobbies who will not protect the public from assault and arrest innocent citizens for defending themselves.
When a government sends the police after its citizens to enforce political correctness but refuses to use the police to control real crime, the government has lost its usefulness.
A liberal’s dream of paradise.
In the bad old days teachers could enforce discipline and boys could fight out a spat. Was that really worse than having the police regulate schoolyard spats and give an 11 year old a record?
If UK society holds Gays in such esteem, wouldn’t calling someone ‘gay’ be a compliment?
Mom’s HOT!
He needs to be sent to Tolerance Camp
