Britain’s police have stumbled into another public relations disaster after threatening to track down and prosecute Facebook users for ridiculing them. West Yorkshire Police were derided by social media users after sharing a picture of a drugs bust on their Wakefield Rural page. The haul involved a comically small quantity of cannabis, MailOnline reports.
“Wow that’s put a dent in the war on drugs lol” commented one user sarcastically. “Hope you manage to nail Pablo Escobar this afternoon” added another.
The police force did not see the funny side of the criticism, however, issuing a statement advising that it had banned a number of people from its Facebook page and would track down and pursue prosecutions against anyone being “insulting, abusive, or offensive”.
“Unfortunately we have had to ban a number of people from using this page today,” the statement began.
“I would like to remind everyone that this is a Police page and whatever your thoughts on one of my officers seizing drugs in the community, being insulting, abusive or offensive can and will result in a prosecution under the Malicious Communications Act 1988.”
British cops need to be hunted down for corruption

Imagine being a police officer and not being able to take even the slightest of abuse. This is why uk cops don't have guns. There'd be police shootings every day.
>pursue prosecutions against anyone being “insulting, abusive, or offensive”. Y’all motherfuckers need the First Amendment so bad. Here in the USA you have a constitutional right to tell a cop to go fuck himself to his face. It might get you beat up and hauled in but will always get tossed because lol freedom.

Start flooding their Facebook saying that you're concerned that the police can't safely interact with the community when they carry beating sticks everywhere they go. Remember to point out that this is doubly worrying for minorities since they're more often the target of state abuse.

Meanwhile in Rotherham and across over 50 towns and cities in the land...
Hunter Morales
They have time to investigate theirbhurt feelings but can't seem to nail the human trafficking issue and the children rapes in Rotheram. Makes my blood fucking boil.

How do we fix are police lads? It seems systemic
Leo Ross
Become one?
Andrew White
They sold those laws with the idea of protecting teenage faggots from online harassment and now it is used to smash criticism of the state itself. Learn from this - but those NPCs probably never will...
Lincoln Jackson
How many police are there in Britain? >Not enough to stop all of you
A lot of those examples of "illegal" mocking are pretty fair criticisms. Be very afraid of a government that protects police from being complained about. I know America ping pongs between bootlicking and trashing police, but it should never allow police to arrest people for critiquing them... or even mocking them.
So pathetic. Why do they not have guns to deal with nogs?
Jeremiah Kelly
Oh no, imagine the consequences!
Leo Perry
The UK deserves to be mocked.
They introduced Socialism, disarmed their own people from owning firearms & weapons, brought in a ton of nigger & muzzie refugees who are damaging their culture
UK deserves to be mocked.

>British police, go to hell! Applies to more than just Muslims.
Didnt a guy get fined and jailed for speaking bad of a judge that send his kid to his psychotic wife to get killed? It sure doesnt sound like first amendment works.
Jason Reyes
British law is like Jow Forums rules. You think you can get away with anything, but if you stick your head out or someone snitches on you, you get v& and b&. Their mentality is also in pair with this, they say, "you can do anything you want, as long as you don't get caught."
James Fisher
Because it would totally be awesome and we can totally get away with it.
Which is a bad thing and shouldn't be encouraged.
Cameron Reyes
only one Mangalorefag? you should have been left 1 crate.
Noah Campbell
Fuck it, we should all use proxies and start reporting weapons out of 40k weapon manuals.
> Yes, officer? > I would like to register my Pallis-Titaniam Bolt Thrower > It has a chainsword attachment undernethe the barrel
The rule of law no longer exists. It shows you the absolute dumbness of these sad fuckers in Uniform who think Facebook is the fucking law and they are the sheriffs in the Wild West and can make up any old shit to go after people. It’s another rung on the ladder to the day of the rope.

So which account should be trolled? metro police tweet feed not loading
Nolan Stewart
If they didnt allow muslims and others to make them look like jokes in public, nobody would do it.
Nathaniel Howard
Not that fucking easy,you have to pass psychological profiling exams and basically you have to be a mindless fucking thug with a lower IQ than the average user that will follow even the most retarded of orders with a sense of over bearing smugness.
Jack Johnson
stop fast track hiring uni students but that probs won't stop the liberal tyranny being enforced.
Oliver Rivera
This. If you dont want to be ridiculed, stop being ridiculous. Also it would help if these officers could take a joke as well as they take mohammads dick.
Nah just send their families into no go zones, see how much they like it when they have to suffer diversity.
Easton Richardson
I live in Southern Oregon where recreational marijuana is legal and the #1 cash crop. These idiots would shit themselves from all the weed growing openly alongside major roads. Talking acres and acres with nothing more than a fence to keep the public out. It is at the point where the plants are starting to spread out from grows and show up at random from dropped seeds.
Tyler Brooks
>Malicious Communications Act 1988 The language in this document, never seen it but I can nearly guess exactly what it says.
Hello again cypranon - always nice to see you.
Samuel Gomez
So you are merchants after all.
Ayden Allen
I'll admit, this one made me lol.
Asher Taylor
This is literally the most not good idea ever. They definitely have not made their situation x100 worse.
we need to hammer the UK until it figures out how to be free I think the UK should not be allowed to have atomic weapons until it passes a law similar to the First Amendment to the USA Constitution
Isaac Brown
Good Police are perfect Remember the thin blue line
Gavin Cruz
the War on Drugs is fake and judaic
Landon Cruz
>ballpeen hammers I see you are a man of culture as well.
That dude was openly threatening a judge on social media. Totally different situation. Sad about the kid but showing yourself digging a grave with the Justice's name on your shovel is arguably not protected speech.
So what if police are doing something grossly corrupt?
>This cop is taking bribes from gangs here is the video >OI! YOUR UNDER ARREST!
Britbongs see nothing wrong with this because it already happens and they are disarmed to the extreme and are not even remotely organized and will take that big fat police state cock to the face and an arab one in the ass.
Pathetic island people. Pure slave stock. All the good ones left to conquer the world or died in battle.
