It is sad to see, seems like freedom of speech is under constant assualt in Britain. Here is an idea: how about you block him if his online rant hurts your fragile feelings? Getting a police involved over an online post is a mockery of justice.

He probably wouldn't have been arrested here either.
Unless the police have took him in to protect him.

If he threatened others with shooting then yes he should be arrested but if all he did was upset people without the threat of harm then he wouldn’t have been arrested in the states.
This doesnt sound like a threat."you're lucky I'm not like that cumbria guy." People say crap like that all the time.edit on 30-12-2012 by Grimpachi because: (no reason given)

Heads up
The title of this thread, and the subject of discussion here is
"Man arrested after online rant against Liverpool and Hillsborough disaster victims"
It isn't "lets start a territorial pissing contest between the US and the UK.
So let me make this clear, that rubbish stops now, ok?
As for peoples opinions - on ATS you are expected to be CIVIL, not act like you are in a schoolyard. I hope that's clear.
If you feel the need to be childish and uncivil, there are plenty of other places on the internet you can be right now.
This is the only warning I'm going to give. Heed it.
