He deserved it. That's all. And no, I don't care that there wasn't a strong basis for him being charged, because he deserved it. Plus 30 days is not that much.
Treating her special because she's different is the opposite of treating everyone 'the same.' Maybe I deserve more rights because I'm a white male. As I said (I think on page 3) jail time is way too much. A fine, court-ordered therapy, and/or community service at most. A better solution is expelling the son for bullying. (which seems way more appropriate to me) Police don't belong in this situation.
This is incorrect BTW. There are limitations, but 'hate speech' is a protected right.There are laws against hate speech here and i see nothing wrong with that.
Wish I'd have some pityworth condition so i could sue everyone that looks at me funny... not because EVERYONE does it, but apparently that's what this world is coming to. And to all those who are supporting judge's decision, stay in your houses and don't make contact with other human beings, that's what's best you can do for society.
Some small time judge in a common law system. That stuff happens. Higher courts overturn judges all the time. I wouldn't settle on anything from one ruling by one small town judge.
I got a trespassing ticket in a small town once when I was using a phone booth. The police just gave me a ticket and never asked me to leave. Small town judge and a kangaroo court. I easily appealed and won.

"In life, I was raised to hate the undead. Trained to destroy them. When I became Forsaken, I hated myself most of all. But now I see it is the Alliance that fosters this malice. The human kingdoms shun their former brothers and sisters because we remind them what's lurking beneath the facade of flesh. It's time to end their cycle of hatred. The Alliance deserves to fall." - Lilian Voss
Damn, if i was him i'd make sure i did enough to earn this 29 days in jail.
unbelievable
Equality in courts is nonexistent. In this case however you have a 10 year old girl with a disability and a grown fucking man(!) who harasses her. This goes far beyond free speech, this is psychological harassment. He induces pain in a girl by mocking her disability, he deserves the jail time.
