Curtailing free speech is regressive not progressive. It's the essence of democracy.

Your own post disproves your own statement by being offensive.

The problem with the precious people is that they like free speech when they agree with what's being said but want to curtail it when it doesn't agree with them.

What if people find the term dinosaur offensive? You say society  has determined you can't be offensive.

It could be that calling people a plick would be offensive but you call them in your last paragraph, I won't call you out for being a hypocrite but I will remind you it's against forum rules to swear and there are consequences for doing so.

Often the people who want to ban or control your language demonstrate the most offensive behaviour.

 

I don't mind Pope's tweets by the way.

Shouldn't need to be banned if you've got the nous to know what is or isn't appropriate,  or anticipating the consequences.

The blokes a club legend and you want to hang him out to dry...  yes he has done wrong but have a word with yourself.

He should be held to the same professionalism standards as every other player at the club.

Anyone seen the episode of black mirror where you rate everyone you meet and if your rating drops low you become an outcast???? That's the way we are heading

Do you know if his number of followers have increased or decreased on Twitter?

😁 Are you a politician 😊

Has he had a column....... or has he missed it..... brilliant politicians answer....... you are correct.

Or does his ban also include his football journalistic activities, or have the Sentinel suspended him of their own accord?

I don’t have a problem with Tom’s tweets individually, although he should be mindful of the fact that he’s a representative of the club. The main issue is that having been reprimanded once, Tom should then learn the lesson and either quit Twitter all together or be far more selective in what he tweets, and his first offence should have been the end of the story.

If you think Pope is a legend, you haven't been going very long. Yes good player, however not in same League as the like of Foyle, Naylor, Slaven, who did it at an higher level.
