Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81849645 your ad hominem attacks on the person expressing their opinion on a sign, only makes it seem like you are trying to deflect from the real issue at hand here. Yes, the real issue is she is a far left provocateur. You are a bucket boy for that ugly cow. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80804854 nobody does double standards like the brits Its inappropriate behaviour, bad form, not the done thing! If she disagrees, there are plenty of airports she can use. We know in authoritarian police states and quasi monarchies free speech and freedom, is inappropriate behavior, bad form, and not the done thing. Fuck it the monarchy are just a bunch of corrupt people just like all the rest. I personally might be pissed if I lived there and had to listen to church bells ring for over an hour just because one person died. Of course all you monarchists can eat your bugs and be happy, you already have the mentality of serfs and slaves. You all seem to love the nostalgia of the chains. Peasant |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 83865865 United States 09/12/2022 02:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81597136 You either have free speech or you don’t, there’s no in between. We don't have complete free speech, but we don't claim to either. What would happen in the US if the police saw a young lady with a Fuck Trump sign at a Trump rally? she'd be removed by his security most likely , but it wouldnt be the police arresting her unless she happened to be violating some criminal statue . holding signs in america isnt a crime ...yet. How about swearing in public and holding up placards with obscene words in front of the president? This had nothing to do with free speech. It was about behaving in a way that was a breach of the peace because it was DELIBERATELY meant to incite violence and general public disorder = you know - just like Antifa do when they pretend to exercise their right of free speech but end causing a riot..... swearing in public is protected free speech, here to raise to the level where they would likely be arrested it would have to be a graphic depiction of pornography or terrorist threats of imminent violence type stuff. our ideas of what incites violence are different and for something like a vulgar sign we would expect the police to protect the signholder and arrest whoever assaults them. insulting our leadership is practically a national pastime here. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 4812794 . she was prevented from continuing her protest, and her protected freedom of speech was not protected. Breach of the peace is not criminal offence. They let you go almost immediately after detaining. We don't have freedom of speech in the UK. We have freedom of expression. |

We are all connected some how... Royal titles and privileges should be eliminated. Period. Having said that this "protester" could wait a few days. This is just disrespectful to the cycle of life in general. If you must celebrate someone's death do it in private... not where people are paying respects. Royal or not this is still a human and people did love her. I hope none of her the grandkids had to see this. They can not help being born into this family. |
