Good for him. The state shouldn't punish people for risque jokes.
I hate his whole mentality but god damn if his situation doesn't bring up some scary thoughts
It doesn't matter what you think of this guy or what football team you think he supports. This case sets a serious precedent for the entire country, and the absolute worst thing that can be done is play political sports over it.
He's a wretched person but wretched people still deserve their rights
i hope his appeal is successful. this whole situation has just been one long terrible wet fart

How's he wretched again?
im expecting a reply along the lines of "someone else said he was a bad man so i took their assessment of his character at face value :downs:"
The guy probably meant something about his opinions or behavior online or some shit but to be perfectly fair Count Dankula visually looks like a stanky hobo. He looks like he would smell like a mix of motor oil, expired dog food, and cheap whiskey.
We need to arrest James Matthew, dude is obviously a nazi. He said "Gas the jews twenty-three times", we cannot allow someone like that to roam the streets, he's a danger to the Jewish community and a threat to our society.
Wow, now this is a real people's movement.
Yeah because judging people by their looks have been a common action among good, decent people.
I love how many people attack his opinions and personality Like, what the fuck is that even supposed to prove?
Nice it's already funded, i gave him 10£ earlier this day. Now go gas the court!
I don't think anyone who attacks his opinions really know his opinions besides the fact he a self aware edgelord.
Facepunch user arrested after threatening to gas a court
I was just cracking a joke but okay
Wonderful. I hope he can find some really good lawyers with that dough.
This may be the single most pretentious thing i have ever read. I genuinely would have respected your opinion more if you said "he has no right to free speech because what he said is offensive", than saying "eh fuck him, he looks like a hobo and probably smells of motor oil."
Is this the cool dab guy? B)
Hateful targeted jokes only work when they are actually funny otherwise you're just being a cunt over someones appearance
Maybe from the stream he did with Destiny. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyKELbVv0jA
I actively believe he has a right to free speech because jokes aren't crimes and context matters.
imagine being homeless and seeing on the news that somebody got 117 thousand euros because he trained his dog to be a nazi what a world
When was the last time you fed the homeless in parks, donated clothes or helped out in shelters? I hate this fucking argument, yes, any money can go into people who desperately need it, sure. But this case is serious since it will send people to prison for making a fucking joke about one of the worst group of people to ever trot the globe. And the courts making this dangerous precedent that could send an innocent man or woman to jail for a joke would in turn add another statistic to the unemployed chart since it ruins your career.
Holy shit Dankula might just be one of the thickest fuckers Destiny has ever had on. Destiny isn't a master debater by any stretch of the definition, but in the first 15 minutes I think he's done more than enough to show Dankula is an absolute imbecile. Watching videos of things happening is not proof of a statistical fact such as "the left are more violent". Videos have inherent bias based on the person recording, the person editing and the person uploading the bastard thing. Anyone trying to claim Dankula hasn't gone off the right leaning deep end by this point is deluded. The guy appears to have been doing little but consuming media to prove his bias that ~the left~ are all violent thugs. Rather than actually prove his point he's just being a snarky dickhead and trying to laugh it off. I'm starting to understand fully why he willingly went with the former EDL leader as a court buddy. Sure he probably doesn't deserve the fine still. And I still don't think he's a Nazi (or even a neo-Nazi). But the guy really isn't making his position look any better the further on we go here.
the point is, it's irrelevant what his personal views are, this could have been anyone and the only reason he's being targeted like this is because the joke is deliberately being taken out of context to arbitrarily decide that a video of a pug jokingly being "trained to be a nazi" is somehow hate speech
He doesnt care about the 800, he'll donate that and all money thats left is going to charity
Oh I do know that. I'm not saying him appearing to be a farther right leaning nutcase than people want to admit has bearing on the precedent the case itself can set. If anything the fact this shit is happening (including the lyrics thing that happened to someone else earlier in the month) are a bigger indictment of the Tory government than anything because these laws have been around for years now, and the government has never abused them in a way that genuinely concerned almost everyone, until a certain party took power 🤔 A bunch of conservative prudes wanting to clamp down on language shouldn't come as a shock really.
