Even if it isn't something to joke about he shouldn't be arrested for it, you either believe in freedom of speech absolutely or you don't, going around censoring things you don't like just makes you a total hypocrite especially if you say whatever you want without facing the same consequences.

He'll learn if he hasn't already that's not really something to joke about.

Going by that logic I should be seeing a psychiatrist for porn and game addiction the silly wankers, unfortunately people getting into this sort of trouble for saying things on Facebook and Twitter is a regular thing now.

I dare say I'm jaded.  I'd like to be shocked that this happened but it's already happened before.  It used to be criminals slipping up and posting their alleged crimes on Facebook which got people jailed.  Now all you gotta do is make even the slightest reference to an act of terrorism and you can see jail time.

Just imagine if your account is hacked.  Just imagine by whom.  Put two and two together and you could potentially have the key to jailing anybody (who has a Facebook.)

Is this for realzies? Long time ago I had my yahoo account deleted for posting a black humor question in yahoo answers (deleted along with my emails and etc), but this is too much. Freedom of speech much?

In the meantime lets sing "Who dropped the soap? Who dropped the soap?"  Grin
