I don't know about this one, but there was a teenager that quoted a snoop song on her instagram (not directed at anyone but rather in memory of her friend that died in a car crash) and got threatened with an ankle bracelet and a $1000 fine.
And this is before the rules got even more strict.
That's the thing. People often don't know the contents of these tweets, so we don't even know whether the accused actually said anything, let alone something that violated a law.
However, we are told that what was said was, "The spokesman said the tweet, which included Rashford's username, saw Price swear, use a racist slur and claim that his 'dead nan could have scored that.'"
Is my downvoted & dead sister so because she is false or because she spoke an unspeakable truth? Surely this cannot be one of those places where mentioning an offensive word (as distinct from using it) is considered offensive? @dang
