Brickbat: Twits

Humberside, England, police grilled Harry Miller for 34 minutes after he "liked" a limerick posted to Twitter they believed mocked transgender people. Miller does not live or work in Humberside but says cops told him someone had filed a complaint against him. Miller says the constable he spoke to said it would be recorded as a hate incident and warned him he could lose his job. "We take all reports of hate incident seriously and will always investigate and take proportionate action," said a spokesman for the police department.

There once was an island called "free"
But today, smart observers agree,
It's a fascist cesspool
That's governed by fools
And they've lost their civil liberty
That';; get you a fiver gov'ner
Brilliant!
*polite golf clap*
Round of applause. (claps while moving hands in a circle)
Nice!
The Limeys really want this? And I thought the United States employed more police than the job required.
They are really getting into enforcing indoctrination.
This is a higher enforcement priority than policing "Asian" grooming gangs.
After all, the gangs could start setting off bombs in their station houses.
When in Humberside or Newcastle-on-Twee
Beware of all you like, hate, or might be
If you like the wrong trans person tweet
Or don't think o' trans when beating your meat
Some coppas might quickly descend
Not caring you hadn't meant to offend
And you'll find yourself in the hot seat
If you cut your dick off you deserve to me mocked. Am I right guys?
I am offended!!!!
The limerick that was reported to the police
The limerick which was liked by Mr Miller and which was subsequently reported to Humberside Police, said:
"You're a man.
"You're breasts are made of silicone
"Your vagina goes nowhere
"And we can tell the difference
"Even when you are not there
"Your hormones are synthetic
"And lets just cross this bridge
"What you have you stupid man
"Is male privilege."
If you still have a real cock, you are accused of having "male privilege", but your "male privilege", unlike your schlong, is entirely unreal!
If you cut your schlong OFF, ***NOW*** you have REAL privilege, in that Government Almighty, at the behest of politically correct ideologues, will carve our special favors for you!
Well, at least, if you cut your cock off, you'll not be in danger any more of going off half-cocked, right?
Also, you can avoid this...

Man claims he heard penis 'snap' during traumatic injury
Over social media??? Incredible it's becoming more and more like 1984 by the Left!
It will end with Kate and Charlotte forced to wear burkas on pain of acid.
"We take all reports of hate incident seriously and will always investigate and take proportionate action,"
"Proportionate action". So laughing at a joke = threatening to destroy your life. I realize the delicate snowflakes, the perpetually offended, the professional grievance-mongers, and the more-victimized-than-thou groups really do think the two are equivalent but when did we start letting whiny cry-babies start dictating the rules of society?
The 90's?
This is why I call them 'cry-bullies.' They use lawfare to silence anyone that triggers them.
"cry-bullies" is a pretty fitting term for them.
Coming soon to a progressive USSA near you!
The intersectionality crowed has non cis trans wet dreams over this; and come it will unless enough of us push against it.
"Hickory dickory dock.
The mouse ran up the trannies cock.
The cock struck none,
And down he run.
Hickory dickory dock."
There was a young girl of Cape Cod
Who thought babies were fashioned by God,
But 'twas not the Almighty Who hiked up her nightie ?
'Twas Roger, the lodger, by God!
I met a lewd nude in Bermuda
Who thought she was shrewd: I was shrewder;
She thought it quite crude
To be wooed in the nude;
I pursued her, subdued her, and screwed her.
A pansy who lived in Khartoum
Took a lesbian up to his room,
And they argued a lot
About who would do what
And how and with which and to whom.
Well, hand it to the lesbians who are out in front on the trans issue. They mock trans people for thinking they are women, but somehow, yet they also want to be a third (fourth, fifth...) gender?? I'm not really sure how any of this shit works either.
You have an anthology of these, don't you?
There once was a creature from Venus,
Came equipped with a prehensile penis,
Said the women who loved it,
They loved when he shoved it
"Around, beneath, and between us"!
Sounds like someone is peanut butter and jealous 🙂
There was a girl named Alice,
Who used a dynamite stick for a phallus.
It blew her vagina, to North Carolina,
And bits of her tits, to Dallas.
+1
There once was a woman from Wheeling
Who swore she had no sexual feeling
But when a man named Boris
Simply tongued her clitoris
She flew clear up to the ceiling
Booyah!
There once was a commenting section,
Where er'y joke seemed about an erection,
And if it wasn't about cocks,
Or some girl's hairy box,
It was inevitably about intersection!
/original composition
Great stuff:). Lol
This should be a major article and not a brickbat. It's the real world application of thoughtcrime in the so-called enlightened Western World.
