I have a friend who lives in Manchester but supports Arsenal. The police threatened to arrest him "for agitating" if he did not take his Arsenal flag out of his front window.

We may be there soon if the Dems stay in power - after all they've been trying to establish a government "disinformation" board - it would only be a short step after that

The UK does <em>not</em> have the same "rights granted by their creator" and "shall make no law" philosophies as the U.S.

Most of the Internet right now is like that. If someone is offended by your post, no you won't be arrested. But your post will not be approved and you might get deleted. You have to conform to the doctrine.

Founder has really made something good here.
