Just a Bit of Humour-Ten Illegal Things To Do In London

I just watched this video.




And here are the references:

We're indebted to blogger Scrapper Duncan for this wonderful piece about legal myths: while we checked the original texts ourselves, that post was the inspiration for the video.
Carrying a plank along a pavement, sliding on ice or snow, firing a cannon within 300 yards of a dwelling, and beating or shaking any carpet or rug in the street (except for a doormat before 8am) are all illegal under the Metropolitan Police Act 1839.
Singing profane or obscene songs in the street and playing knock-down-ginger (or ding-dong-ditch as it's known in the US) are illegal under the Town Police Clauses Act 1847.
Being drunk in a pub (or any other licensed premises) is illegal under the Licensing Act 1872. Yes, seriously.
Defacing money is illegal under the Currency and Banknotes Act 1928. This technically includes all those bank tellers who scrawl totals on the backs of piles of notes.
And finally, handling salmon in suspicious circumstances — a bit of a stretch, since 'suspicious circumstances' generally involves poaching — is illegal under the Salmon Act 1986.
As of filming and publishing, all the relevant sections of these laws remain in force.

  1. Indian medical student kicked out of college by racist white professors for questioning their SJW beliefs

    Kieran Ravi Bhattacharya was a medical student at the University of Virginia and he has been kicked out after having questioned his white college professor's SJW beliefs.

    Here is the audio of the lecture where he questioned his professor's SJW beliefs:

    He speaks from 28:45 to 34:00

    Here is the audio of the suspension hearing:

    Here is a picture of the people who were at the suspension hearing:

    Notice how 14 out of the 16 people at that suspension hearing are white people. If this is not an act of racism against a sincere indian medical student, then I don't know what is. Look at their smug arrogant faces as they kick him out for DARING to question their SJW beliefs.

    His twitter is https://twitter.com/kieranravib if you want to ask him questions or set up an interview with him

    Already the media is beginning to cover it: https://beforeitsnews.com/v3/opinion-conservative/2018/3421928.html

    It has been discussed endlessly on Reddit, 4chan, and various message boards. This is THE next big story. So if you run this story on your blog, it will serve to draw a lot of traffic to your blog as well. The story will expose the truth about how our univerisites are SJW and communist indoctrination centers.

    1. SJW means "social justice warrior".

    2. I'm reminded of a William F. Buckley column in which he used the word 'steatopygian'. He added that he wouldn't define it, you could look it up yourself. I did, and I've never forgotten it!

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
