Suspicion of holding or owning a firearm..

We no longer have the freedom of speech:

Thursday 28thOctober on my Twitter page an ill thought out crass comment..

It was on the lines of: We had the AK47s and that we was ready to deal with the cunts, putting an ash tag will mean this comment could be read by thousands.. It was nothing more than just dark humour on my part and alas from mistakes we learn lessons.

Saturday 30 October I was helping out making a video, this was in an old derelict factory.. It had a young person holding a person hostage with a toy gun.. The images are here.( http://www.flickr.com/photos/0742/sets/72157625274960914)

Monday 1 November, I was arrested for suspicion of holding or owning a firearm. At 11.30am in Sheffield City Centre, I was surrounded by Police in plain clothes, I suspect some might have been carrying guns I can not confirm this to be fact.

Under arrest I was taken to Bridge Street charge office, to be asked about the comment on Twitter, during the 4 hours there it transpired that I was watched when in Sheffield City Centre by CCTV and other workers as the police put it.

This conversation come around due to myself asking why did they not arrest me at my home? In reply it was said a city ambassador had seen me and radio in the fact, the police followed me to Paradise Sq. where I was arrested.

Having thought about the events, I have made a formal complaint to my local Councilor, and will be taking further legal action against the Police. It is without doubt that Sheffield City Council are using The Police and City Ambassadors to watch and monitor myself.

This arrest was instigated by Sheffield City Council, of this we are left with out doubt, of course it could be that a person rang Crimestoppers, or someone with a grudge against myself this is accepted, but it more than likely to be fact it was Sheffield City Council.

What a dumb-arsed thing to say where, as you say, it could be seen by thousands. What did you expect?

So the fact a person due to there thoughts on the world is being watched serves them right in this you are giving the justification of the state to watch monitor people who they disagree with, it was only the fact of the crass comment this come to light in this regard lesson learned.

"could it be that the drama of a restless population makes the cops and council jumpy? "

No - it's the drama of nutters running amock with guns from time to time, and the police being bollocked for not stopping them.

"In reply it was said a city ambassador had seen me and radio in the fact,"

A city ambassador had seen your comment, knew what you looked like and called the police. Sounds far fetched to me. I would assume the police were lying to me.

Perhaps city ambassadors and the police have so little to do in Sheffield that they can waste their time on comments made on Twitter.

I don't think so. The headlines in the Star show there are far better things they could be doing with their time.

The headlines at the moment in www.thestar.co.uk are about a brawl "A DRUNKEN student assaulted a woman police officer leaving her with a dislocated knee, broken tooth and black eye", Nick Clegg being attacked "he was spat at and had dog excrement pushed through his letterbox", reoffending criminals "DANGEROUS criminals living in the community around South Yorkshire were among almost 200 serial offenders across the UK charged with further serious crimes while supposedly under intense supervision by the authorities" and a dead reveller "A BODY has been found in the River Don in Sheffield by police searching for a man who went missing on a night out". All far better things for the police to spend their time on then comments on Twitter.

You are a cock and frankly, you've only got yourself to blame.

If you are too stupid to figure out why you fucked up in such a large cluster fuck then thats your loss. Its not exactly rocket science to figure out why you ended up in the situation you did.
