Re: Teenager faces prosecution for calling Scientology 'cult'

This is ridiculous. What happened to freedom of speech?

I like how the teenager in question actually quoted to the police 'a 1984 high court ruling from Mr Justice Latey, in which he described the Church of Scientology as a "cult" which was "corrupt, sinister and dangerous". '


TheNorm's quote from the story regarding the City of London police is definitely rather worrying... and I see the article also says...

Quote:
Writing on the same website, another anonymous demonstrator said: "We also protested outside another Scientology building in Tottenham Court Road which is policed by a separate force, the Metropolitan police, who have never tried to stop us using the word cult.
If the Met doesn't have a problem with it, why does the City of London force?
