THE FIFER Posted March 19, 2013 Report Posted March 19, 2013 this is some advice I have got re the subject.LeroySent Today, 13:31 PMHi Archie, please feel free to post this on the "This is my view" topic about feedom of speech. It is true to say that we all have freedom of speech in general and one can air one's views whenever one wants. However, if by airing one's views one is deemed to be inciting or encouraging a criminal offence, then your conduct becomes a criminal offence in itself. So by saying "lets all kill hawks and here is how to do it..." you are committing an offence by encouraging or aiding and abetting an offence (the killing of hawks). If that conduct is aired through a privately owned website, then the owners of that website commit an offence by doing nothing to remedy the encouragement of a criminal offence, and they are just as liable as the original person for airing that person's views. I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say the hawk situation is worse than it's ever been, and at times all I want to do is come on here and rant and rave about it. But I don't want to see my actions result in any of the Mods getting arrested, computers seized or prosecuted because of something I post. I would also hate to be banned from the forum or at worst arrested myself. There are numerous posts about how to sort this out, including reporting all hawk strikes, signing the petition and preventitve actions. I wish we were allowed to protect our livestock on our own property but for now we can't. Let's just stick it out and keep going. Getting arrested, getting the site shut down or just giving up isn't going to help anyone. Just my opinion.Lee
