If Oblabla gets wind of this, we're all fucked! We'll all be in jail for not smiling as he rapes us and steals everything we have worked for. The prisons will be overflowing and the FEMA camps will be bursting with all the rational people in America. Of course that will leave all the worthless eaters wondering who is going to feed them.

Re: Man arrested for not smiling at Olympics
London: A father with Parkinson’s disease was arrested as he watched the Olympic cycling road race because he ‘failed to smile or look like he was enjoying himself’.

Mark Worsfold, a martial arts trainer and former soldier, claims that he was thrown to the floor and handcuffed just as cyclists passed by.

His worried wife Nicola only found out he was being held after she reported him missing when he did not turn up for their daughter’s ninth birthday party.

The 54-year-old had his fingerprints, DNA and mugshot taken before being questioned about why he did not appear to be enjoying the event on July 28.

Police said Worsfold, who was held for over five hours, was arrested because of ‘his manner, his state of dress and his proximity to the course’. A spokesman added that the arrest was necessary to avoid a breach of the peace because he was standing near a group of protesters.

But Worsfold, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2010, said that one of the symptoms of the disease is muscle rigidity, which can cause his face to become expressionless and mask-like.

Worsfold, who had stopped to watch the men’s road race in Leatherhead, Surrey, after holding a Taekwondo demonstration nearby, said officers told him he was being arrested and taken to Reigate police station because he was not smiling.

‘I was sitting minding my own business,’ he told a local newspaper. ‘Before I knew anything the police grabbed me off this seven-foot wall, threw me to the floor and cuffed me so all I saw of the cycle race was between the feet of people from the pavement.

Well he would have to be mental to start dropping police officers with throat strikes, that's not going to end well, after all he was arrested for merely not smiling. Lord knows the reprimand he would have received for striking an officer.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21382841


Usually a swift kicking in a quiet car park on the way back to the nick (sorry, police cells) because, despite what people tend to think, the punishment for hitting a British copper is no different from that for hitting anyone. Would've been nice to see though. They try and arrest him, he kicks the shit out of them and calmly continues to watch the cycling.

You're aware that Obama has given more in military and general aid to Israel than any other President in history, correct?

This clearly makes Obama the most pro-Israel U.S. president of all time.

As a Zionist, like Obama, do you applaud the president for giving so much to Israel?

Do you feel he should cut back? Do you feel he should give even more?

As a Zionist, like Obama, I assume you want Obama to invade Iran to protect Israel's best interests, correct?

Don't you people know that it's illegal not to smile? If you are not grinning like a monkey, then you're suspicious. You must be a terrorist or some kind of secret spy.

Half the people I see on a daily basis are not smiling! We need to arrest them all!

A possible breach of the peace is their new one now, they use it in all public events, I predict in 5 years it will be the norm and not just for big events.

Re: Man arrested for not smiling at Olympics
if you read into it, it turns out he was actually arrested by the London pre-crime division of the police, for a crime he was about to commit.

heres what the daily mail said.

"In a statement, the spokesman added: ‘He was positioned close to a group of protesters and based on his manner, his state of dress and his proximity to the course, officers made an arrest to prevent a possible breach of the peace."
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1546575


A comment made by someone attending the Olympics:

"The man was arrested for suspicious-looking behavior, not because he wasn’t having a good time. The news is completely bogus.

I spent the last 8 days in London, attending seven ticketed sessions and the triathlon, watching the cyclist, then the runners speeding past. If the police were arresting miserable-looking people, then the London prisons would have been overflowing with them by now. All the policemen and women I saw were perfectly relaxed and happy to let people get on with being miserable if they wanted to be."
