Glad I moved out of the UK when I did. What an absolute joke, writing nigger on the internet is a hate-crime? Even when you're quoting a song... written by a black man?
[Verse 1]
I was chillin' with my bitch, we was gettin' high as shit
Fuck around and start trippin', I was thinking about a lick
Then I called my twin told him bring the F&N
He said he already got it, make sure you bring your friend
He say I see you in about ten, we met up at the Coney
Seen an old head with a cuban and a rolley
Nigga run that shit, you better not make a move
He tried to run back up in the Coney with his food
I seen my brother shot him, so I shot him too
Get that cuban and the rolley, fuck it, get the money too
I was trippin' hard, fuck the white and blue
Oh shit we gotta go, before we end up on the news
[Hook]
Off a whole gram of molly, and my bitch think I'm trippin'
Now I'm clutchin' on my forty, all I can think about is drillin'
I hate fuck shit, slap a bitch nigga, kill a snitch nigga, rob a rich nigga
I think I'm trippin', I think I'm trippin'
[Verse 2]
So I called up sosa, he said we about to take off
Gotta keep that bitch on me
Cause they gonna start hatin' on me
So I walked outside with my Mac 10
Some niggas rolled up on me sayin', "Snap you shot my man"
So I upped my shit and let off about ten
Then they pulled off, now they got me on ten
Hopped up in my shit, then I peeled up
Pull up on them niggas seen they mans bleeding out
That's what you get for acting tough
You about to end up like your mans
Hopped out the whip, blew those niggas like a fan
Come get me I got nothing to lose.
She was given an eight-week community order, placed on an eight-week
curfew and told to pay costs of £500 and an £85 victim surcharge.
what the fuck
Just called the Queen you sick fuck hope they throw you in the tower.
Arrested for saying nigga? bullshiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit
There is no racist intent behind this. IMO the peeps who judge her guilty are doing so coz they dislike her or her other lyrics rather than actually thinking shes racist - and when the law is applied in such a way theres a BIG problem.
I don't know what the fuck is going in UK, but between butter knives and seeing racist intents everywhere, I'm betting the police force is becoming paranoid.
She must not have had her lyric permit, maybe she forgot it by her tv permit and her internet permit.
i'd be interested to see the people who defended the count dankula decision try to defend this. if they can define "posting rap lyrics written by a black man that have the n-word in it" as a hate crime it only takes a few positions changing for them to start labelling anti-government sentiment online as a hate crime or something. even if you think it's good that this is happening to people you don't like it can very, very easily be used against you
I really thought all the jokes about the UK were over reactionary memes as usual, but between the whole "nazi pug" incident and now this? What's going on over there? Why is it alright to remove things from context to make them look like hate crimes
Both this and the count dankula things are stupid to do but theres absolutely no reason it should be against the law and only downplays real racial issues
Woman who posted rap lyrics as tribute on Instagram guilty of se..

PC Walker also asked Carole Clarke, defending, not to use the word n**** in the court because she found it so offensive
I'm at a loss for words.
What the fuck is wrong with the UK. Who said it is up to them to interpret how passages in songs and poems should be deemed offensive or not. That is fucking bullshit.
It's not an exaggeration when people say the UK, along with most countries, don't have freedom of speech in their law. They may have some specific forms of freedom of speech, like freedom of the press, but it's not an absolute ideal like it is in the US.
tyler the creator got banned for 5 years from entering the UK by the prime minister for song lyrics.
this fucking country is so hypocritical considering its actual racist history. and relevant recent racist treatment of immigrants.
it's just sad.
good. white people who use the n-slur should get life in the gulags
You guys should probably have a violent revolution and kill your politicians pretty soon.
shit like this is why I care so much about how freedom of speech is treated in the US, it’s crazy that in a first world country people are being found guilty of hate crimes over song lyrics and jokes.
that’s not to say the US is perfect, far from it, but I think on this issue the US is a real leader.
Our government is composed of that one type of old person. You know the one.
Can't wait for banned smart phones and mandatory conversation at bus stops. Because back in the good old days, before those bloody things, people spoke to each other!.

I for one am very happy with our forum's origin countries reasonable and fair laws. I have already inserted the profanity monitor into my urethra and now it zaps me if anyone gets offended by anything i say.
This is to keep the world safe, well worth it!
Brits please blink twice if clicking agree would put you in jail
NSA agents monitoring your web cams will see and send a rescue team
How is Canada?
That sounds nice in theory, but basically every right has "caveats." The world is complex, and absolutes are rarely applicable absolutely.
It's doing fine. As always.
This is what happens when you have no constitution. The Tories usually make these laws just to shut the left up, but they create the legislation in such a poorly thought out way (mostly because they don't care and want to get back to cutting taxes) they produce garbage laws like this that end up being taken to their logical tyrannical extreme.
Ms Clarke argued that the meaning of the ‘n’ word had changed over time
because it had been popularised by hugely successful and popular rap
artists such as Jay-Z, Eminem and Kanye West.
Ms Clarke also pointed out that Russell had spelt the ‘n’ word ending in
the letter a rather than er. She also quoted from the urban dictionary,
which said that the word ending in the letter a meant a ‘black man
wearing a gold chain.’
She didn't deserve the punishment but to be completely honest this is a really shitty defense.
The people who thought this case was worth prosecuting and the people who found her guilty are fucking idiots who deserve a good slapping of their own. What a waste of public resources when these oxygen thieves will pursue rubbish like this but easily drop the ball in legitimate cases.
She shouldn't have needed to defend herself period.
I'm glad you agree with the first part of my post.
