Losing his wife and kids wasn’t enough.
Losing most of his friends wasn’t enough.
Having all previous colleagues ignore him wasn’t enough.
He wants jail, give him jail. Might get the mental health treatment he sorely needs.

I really don’t like the idea of anyone being arrested over a tweet – and besides, Linehan is doing a perfectly good job of ruining his career on his own without the law being involved.

Linehan is a cunt but yay for arresting people for tweets I guess

He was literally asking people to punch women who they don’t think look feminine enough. So yeah not surprising he got arrested!

Well there is a difference between speech and incitement. ‘I don’t believe x is y’ shouldn’t be an arrestable offence. Inviting people to assault random strangers should.

he’s in court for harassment and criminal damage on Thursday too! He would’ve been coming back to the UK for this court case when he got arrested for yet more poor behaviour. The man deserves bad things.

A woman is going to get assaulted for not looking femenine enough. I wonder if Linehan will be cheering that on.
