Romaine Sawyers Has Soccer Fan Jailed Over Social Media Post

Stoke City and West Brom midfielder Romaine Sawyers reported an incident between himself and Simon Silwood...a fan of the West Brom soccer team. Romaine Sawyers didn't only report this social media incident to Twitter or Facebook...he also reported it to the UK police.

Simon Silwood was fined and jailed for eight weeks...for something he said on social media directed towards Romaine Sawyers. We reveal what was said...and react to the UK judge sentencing jailtime for speech.

We explain how this is a slippery slope...and how once government is given control to determine what is deemed acceptable speech...the population can never regain that control. Even though this incident happened in England...we explain how it could affect America.
