Man jailed for 3 years in Egypt for saying that SOME wives are whores

A Canadian man has been found not guilty of criminally harassing two women through Twitter.

The case is believed to be the first example of Canadian courts weighing in on issues of harassment on the social media platform, according to the National Post.

Gregory Alan Elliott was arrested by Toronto police in November 2012 on allegations that he harassed two feminist activists, Stephanie Guthrie and Heather Reilly, over the course of several months through Twitter.

Though the two women had blocked Elliott’s account – preventing him from viewing their tweets or directing tweets at their accounts – the prosecution charged that Elliott sent an “incessant and obsessive amount of tweets” referring to the women obliquely and on hashtags where he believed they might come across his messages.
Just thought I'd rub this in.
 
That Canada apparently doesn't mind harassment or women? I'm sure there is more to the story but it seems like they had a tough call to make and sided on "just ignore him." Not sure I agree but I don't care that about it.

You care enough to say they don't care about "harassment or women".

But anyway I like rubbing your nose in free speech victories. :cool:
 
It's all fun and games until someone turns up dead and we're all left wondering why the fuck nobody stepped up. But without knowing a lot more about the case I don't care but it seems Canada made a good call.

Well in that case shouldn't we just round up all the men in order to protect women?

Oh wait that's what one of your gynocrat masters has actually proposed.

will heterosexuality survive women’s liberation?

It won’t, not unless men get their act together, have their power taken from them and behave themselves. I mean, I would actually put them all in some kind of camp where they can all drive around in quad bikes, or bicycles, or white vans. I would give them a choice of vehicles to drive around with, give them no porn, they wouldn’t be able to fight – we would have wardens, of course! Women who want to see their sons or male loved ones would be able to go and visit, or take them out like a library book, and then bring them back.

I hope heterosexuality doesn’t survive, actually. I would like to see a truce on heterosexuality. I would like an amnesty on heterosexuality until we have sorted ourselves out. Because under patriarchy it’s shit.

And I am sick of hearing from individual women that their men are all right. Those men have been shored up by the advantages of patriarchy and they are complacent, they are not stopping other men from being shit.

I would love to see a women’s liberation that results in women turning away from men and saying: “when you come back as human beings, then we might look again.”
Once you eliminate freedom of speech, well, that's what you come to.

Oh and I forgot, Hitler also abolished free speech. Looks like you're closer to him than I ever will be.

Oh and I forgot again, your local Literotica feminist master Badbabysitter cried like a little bitch about that ruling in Canada. You really don't want her to read what you said about it.
 
Because that's stupid and Free Speech was long ago abolished but you can't even make up your mind if you're talking about these mythical inalienable rights or if you are talking about the truth. Not that either cannot be dangerous.

Please link her. I have no problems with BBS and she probably knows a lot more about that case then what you posted.
 
Oops, looks like they didn't jail Taymour el-Sobky to protect women. If that was their reasoning then this wouldn't have happened:

Egyptian authorities are stepping up their crackdown against civil society and human rights organizations. On March 20th, Nazra for Feminist Studies confirmed it has been summoned as part of an official interrogation by the Egyptian government targeting civil society organizations. In a statement published by our sisters at Nazra for Feminist Studies, the leading women's group confirmed that they have been included in an official interrogation in case 173, known as the "cases of foreign funding for civil organizations in Egypt", and that three staff members received official summons for interrogation as well.
Cracking down on feminists, eh? Uncle Ruckus here's a towel for all that egg on your face.

Or so you wish.

but you can't even make up your mind if you're talking about these mythical inalienable rights or if you are talking about the truth. Not that either cannot be dangerous.
You think I'm not talking about both?

Ask and you shall receive.

No link her in, she can read it and make her case I'm not copy and pasting whatever you feel is relevant, then having you claim I left out important stuff.

The link is right there for you to read. And you always leave out important stuff because you suck at analysis.
 
Sorry, not clicking on a random link. If she has something to say she can say it here.
 
If I would leave things out of context my clicking on the link would just make things worse. Best to bring her here where things are in context.

I just hung up from what I hope will be my last phone call with the District Attorney assigned to my case, and I choked back tears as she told me that I’d conducted myself with grace through this whole nightmare. I don’t know why I’m crying. I’m writing this and examining it as I go through the fog of someone with PTSD. I don’t know if the tears are out of frustration of having sunk a year and a half into this awful system for seemingly less than nothing, or if it’s out of relief.

My ex, who we’ll call Creep Throat because seeing his name makes a knot of anxiety rise in my throat, will be notified soon that the charges were dropped, but not why. I’m sure he’ll launch another salvo of flat out lies and spun truths to make it seem like the last year and a half was a byproduct of me “asking for it”, that the courts saw through it, while making him seem like a downtrodden hero of free speech. He managed to do that with previous court dates, leaving out things like a judge flat out stating that she believed he had physically assaulted me during the last time we had sex, and that he’d gone through my friends social media feeds of the day afterward to prove that I wasn’t “acting like a victim” by spending time with friends.

So, instead of just watching this happen for the who-knows-how-manyth time, I’m going to talk about it. It’s not really about me as much as it is an attempt to dispel some common bullshit assumptions the average person has about the justice system, and what it means to “press charges”.
Waaaah waaaah waaaaah, sour grapes from a feminist zealot who couldn't back up her story with facts. A coward who couldn't even be arsed to hang in there to prosecute the actual fucktards who were sending her semen stained death threats. A simple DNA test would have landed a buncha misogynists in prison.
 
Or as is equally if not more likely a man got away with it and you're overjoyed.

in the ruling, the judge said that while Elliot did harrass her, it did not amount to criminal activity

so essentially, LT is cheerleading an ethically bankrupt douchebag because he managed to stay a hairs breadth on legality

you should read the actual link about Quinn.. because LT makes claims about her lies and crimes but never actually manages to show literally any falsehood or anything even remotely resembling a crime.. in fact the closest she gets to a " crime" is " outing" information that was public domain to start with

Her only crime in this case was that she dumped him and he flipped out

ironically.. because she dropped the lawsuit, if her ex decides to counter sue, he would then have to show that he never broke his restraining order in the first place.. which unfortunately he is on record in way too many places admitting to do so

A coward who couldn't even be arsed to hang in there to prosecute the actual fucktards who were sending her semen stained death threats. A simple DNA test would have landed a buncha misogynists in prison.

That would only work on the assumption that the people sending her the letters had commited a previous crime to be on file, and only a crime heinous enough to keep their DNA on file... that's why Gamergate marches on despite having lost the war, absolutely no accountability

Horseshit.
Unless you're talking about one of Guthrie's supporters that started a fake account after the trial had started, the judge finally amended his ruling after it became blatantly clear that there was no way Elliot could have made those Tweets.

He was a victim of a sexual harassment conspiracy between a coven of wannabe feminist icons and the detective one of them was balling on the side.

Hopefully Elliot pursues action against Guthrie and Toronto Police Services.
 
No egg on my face at all. This doesn't oppose my views at all.
So you don't mind that they're arresting feminists as well? So much for your crusade against misogyny. But then we all knew your participation in this thread was fraudulent to begin with.

Aw, suck it badbabysitter. They lost, and I hope they also get sued right down to their grandmother's burning fucking bra.

Quinn couldn't prove her case, and all you have is her allegations. Nobody is obligated to believe her unsubstantiated bullshit. And her failure to pursue this is especially bad because she said she had people sending her semen stained letters - there's no way she shouldn't have pursued that. If that shit did happen then she did all women a disservice.

But her quantum-level cowardice means nothing to you.

And Gamergate has won the war - they've caused serious changes in gaming journalism in the direction of greater integrity. Their stated goals have been met.
 
No, I don't particularly care that they are arresting feminists. It's once again Egypt. Them making one tiny concession doesn't make them the good guys.

And so Uncle Ruckus completely buries his case against me and has officially become this thread's zombie in a cage.
