- UK Police Arrest 9-Year-Old Child for Mean Tweets? It’s Just a Joke, Or is it?
A Twitter parody is out of control today after a satire police page is being taken seriously.
The post goes like this: In a disturbing turn of events, a 9-year-old child in the UK has been arrested by Sandford Police for posting mean-spirited content on social media.
This arrest, the youngest yet in connection with the recent unrest in Middlesbrough, has raised eyebrows and serious concerns about the implications of criminalizing children’s behavior online.
According to the Sandford Police’s official Twitter (parody) account, the child was detained for their involvement in spreading harmful messages on social media, a trend that has seen dozens of others arrested and even imprisoned.
The operation, led by Detective Chief Inspector Sarah Robinson, is part of a broader crackdown on those contributing to the unrest through online platforms.
It sounds unbelievable, but many didn’t get the joke…or lack of, because they feel such a far fetched story could be true in today’s political climate.
While the entire thing is a satire, a parody of the UK’s crackdown on free speech online, many believed it to be true.
