Yes, exactly read this in The Scotsman today - thing is if he had done this a couple of hundred years ago he probably would have had his head lobbed off!

Hello Seabreeze,

Well said.

As this is the funniest case of wasted money I've ever read, has anyone any ideas on how the horse knew this young student had made a homophobic comment?

Or will thinking about this drive us insane?

From The Sunday Times:
A DETECTIVE is facing disciplinary action by his force for referring to a career criminal as “pondlife” in a private conversation with another officer.

My goldfish will be sueing!

What is especially ludicrous is the suggestion that the criminal could have been offended 'if he had been there', and that the gay horse man 'could have' offended passers by, even though the incident happened at 2:30 am.

Does this mean that I can be arrested for indecent exposure because I 'might' whip out my John Thomas on tyhe High Street?

I can't see a small thing like that being an issue, SF!:laugh:

You're right Fee. And it wouldn't stand up in court.

You're right Fee. And it wouldn't stand up in court.

It could come up against some stiff opposition. :bag:

HARDly....(can't believe i'm in on this!)

What? Do you think they would rather take the soft option?

I'd hope for a quick discharge.

Well you're unlikely to get a 6 to 10 stretch out of it.

I think he should be, well, hung, frankly.
