Sick jokes land British teenager in prison
He did no-one any harm and was not inciting violence so this seems disproportionate at least. No free speech in Britain
A teenager has been jailed for 12 weeks after admitting making grossly offensive comments on his Facebook page about missing youngster April Jones.
Matthew Woods, 19, from Chorley, Lancashire, made a number of derogatory posts about April and missing Madeline McCann after getting the idea from a website that 'trades in sick jokes'.
Today he was sent to prison for three months amid a chorus of cheers and clapping across the courtroom.
Woods realised the strength of animosity over his postings after his own mother posted a Facebook message saying: 'You should stop and think things out before opening ya gob.'
He then left a message saying: 'Sorry to my friends and family that have been brought into all this. 'I’m not a bad guy just took a joke to far

Three cheers for British Justice! Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah!
Because we know the true sickness in our society is stupid jokes by teenagers!
Hopefully he will learn that sticking to hooliganism, petty theft, and occupying London are the true paths to an enlightened civilization - one that doesn't need to bother with protections on Free Speech.....
If they imprisoned someone for foul mouthed jokes a lot of these stand up comedians would be is prison
Mohammad entered his classroom on the first day of school.
"What's your name?" asked the teacher.
"Mohammad," he replied.
"You're in Australia now," replied the teacher, "So from now on you will be known as Kevin." Mohammad returned home after school.
"How was your day, Mohammad?" his mother asked.
"My name is not Mohammad. I'm in Australia and now my name is Kevin."
"Are you ashamed of your name? Are you trying to dishonor your parents, your heritage, your religion? Shame on you!" And his mother beat him. Then she called his father, who beat him again.
The next day Mohammad returned to school. The teacher saw all of his bruises. "What happened to you, Kevin?? she asked.
"Well miss, shortly after becoming an Australian, I was attacked by two fucking Arabs."
Unfortunately, stupidity is not a crime. If it were, most of the planets population would be in prison.
Looking at Britain, one can't help but wonder which will destroy this nation first, their obsession with political correctness, their obvious rejection of reality, or their acceptance of Sharia Law?
Either way, the rest of the world doesn't really care.
Yes 2:39 - care more about similar things going on in your own country instead of pointing fingers at others to make yourself feel better about all the many social problems besetting your own homeland (but if it's the USA I can begin to understand why you do it!).
3:55 - At least a good portion of the American populace are armed.
wow, the UK is really messed up.
Britian needs to suceed from the EUROWEENIE UNION
I read the source article. Sounds like they might have jailed him for his own protection.
There was a mob outside his house looking to do violence to the young man before the police even showed up.
Bird, your malapropisms are funny!
