Yahoo is sentenced to 15-months for inciting violence and hooliganism towards
mosques.
Racist,
Julie Sweeney, 53, of Church Lawton, Cheshire, pleaded guilty at Chester crown
court, to "sending a communication
to convey a threat of death or serious harm." The judge told Sweeney
that "keyboard warriors"
like herself had to take responsibility for the language that they used online.
The
court heard that Sweeney was the primary carer for her husband and lived a
quiet and sheltered life in Cheshire. John Keane, defending, said Sweeney
accepted that she had been stupid.
I
think some British politicians need to take responsibility for the language
that they use when they make inflammatory speeches to whip things up for their
own self-interests and political ends. The job of a responsible politician
should be to curb the instincts of the mob and not throw fuel on the fire.
