Robin Page Cleared of "Hate Speech"

Posted by Dave Blount at January 17, 2008 10:41 AM

After a five-year campaign, Robin Page has managed to clear himself by showing that there were no grounds for prosecution when he was arrested and thrown into a British jail for saying this:

If you are a black, vegetarian, Muslim, asylum-seeking, one-legged lesbian lorry driver, I want the same rights as you.

Allegedly, the joke constituted a "hate crime." His name was put on a "Homo-phobic Incidents Register," so he had better mind his P's and Q's in the future.

On a tip from V the K.
