Not sure if this has been posted. About a month or so old. Just read the thread about the guy who got fined for being grossly offensive and thought I’d share this.
So a woman was jailed for using a racial slur (those familiar with our history will know it’s probably the worst word you can use). First prosecution of its kind, iirc.
Anyway, are there similar laws overseas - especially in the states where I can think directly of the “n” word? I mean, can you be jailed overseas for being grossly/directly racist?
Thoughts?
