So peacefully projecting an unedited picture that doesn't breach anyone's privacy or spill any secrets, is 'malicious communication'.

And telling thousands of rioters-in-waiting that they need to 'kill or be killed' isn't.

Thames Valley Police said four people were arrested on suspicion of malicious communications after the images were seen.

Oh look, the truth is malicious!

"Malicious communications"? A heinous crime indeed! So when is Trump getting arrested for it, together with most if not all politicians?

Yeah, that's the UK for ya. A ton of random bullshit laws lol

If that's malicious communication then Tommy Robson probably is up for the death penalty. Except strangely not.

What even is the crime? Is projecting light onto a surface now considered vandalism?

What is the charge? Projecting an image? Projecting a succulent incriminating image?

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
