“Ms Drummond also said McAndrew described the man as ‘black’ and used an obscenity.”
Is McAndrew black? If so, is it racist to describe him as such? If not, is it racist to call a white man black? Or is the racial offense that he told a Muslim to eat bacon? What race is Islam again? What race is bacon?
Contemporary Britain has gone quite mad in its avidity to appease Islamic supremacists.
“Man who told Muslim convert to ‘go eat bacon’ admits racism charges in court,” by Nicole Morley, Metro.co.uk, January 12, 2017:
A man who told a Muslim convert to ‘eat bacon’ has admitted a racially and religiously offensive offence in court.
Dean McAndrew, 28, who appeared at Forfar Sheriff Court, sent a Facebook message to his stepfather Christopher McAndrew, which read: ‘Go and eat some bacon’.
McAndrew, from Westport area of Arbroath, is converting to Islam and is in the process of changing his name, the court heard.
His stepson Dean of Dundee, admitted using a public communications network to send grossly offensive or indecent, obscene or menacing messages with racially and religiously offensive content on December 6, and threatened him with violence.
Depute fiscal Jill Drummond said: ‘Mr McAndrew is in the process of converting his religion to Islam. He has completed paperwork to change his name.
‘The accused does not use Facebook but uses Messenger as a means of communicating with his family.
‘In recent weeks the accused has had difficulties… and witness McAndrew was giving him advice on Monday December 5.
‘At 6.49pm on December 6 he messaged witness McAndrew “go and eat some bacon”.’
Ms Drummond also said McAndrew described the man as ‘black’ and used an obscenity.
Before hearing the full list of messages, Sheriff Gregor Murray interjected and said he would require reports before sentencing.
Sheriff Murray told him: ‘I’m going to defer sentence on you for a report from the criminal justice social work department.
‘You will have to co-operate with them in its preparation. I hear you’re a first offender but that does not stop me from thinking this is serious, from the charge and what I’ve just heard.’
McAndrew was granted bail on the special condition that he does not approach or attempt to approach his stepfather….

That desperate for clickbait you are quoting the Metro? Sun and mail failed you Bob?
LB says
Exactly what part of this is clickbait? The man will probably be going to prison for telling a muslim to go eat bacon! And did you read the sheriff’s reaction?
“I hear you’re a first offender but that does not stop me from thinking this is serious, from the charge and what I’ve just heard.”
This is a “SERIOUS” crime! Do you know what happened to that guy who got imprisoned for putting bacon on a door handle of a mosque? He got MURDERED IN JAIL! And guess who did it. That’s right, it was the muslims, which make up 80% (a rather modest estimate on my part) of the inmates.
But this probably isn’t newsworthy to you. Let’s wait until this guy too gets killed, and then we MIGHT consider publishing it.
Seriously, fuck off.

When dealing with Leftists and Muslims, everything is offensive, everything is hate speech.
Unfortunately, citizens of the world keep electing politicians that beleive this, much to the detriment of society.
Paul says
Only in a deeply infantalised society with enough professionally offended
morons, and where the loony left are crying out for ever greater government
control over our lives, would such an absurd case be granted time in a courtroom.
Thirty years ago, this non-incident would have been thrown out by the judges. Those
that have contributed towards building this dystopia will one day find themselves on the
receiving end.
Jamanta says
Thank God this would be laughed at by the judges in my country. If the case were even accepted for consideration, the accuser would be fined for wasting the time of the judge for frivolous reasons. I’ve seen a case like this — in which a newspaper was accused of slander for mocking a football team. The judge must have written the sentence in 15 minutes, and complained that the team should have been concerned with more serious issues instead of wasting taxpayers’ money and his time.
D-spot says
We go to court now for name calling!!???? Whatever happened to ‘sticks and stones……’ Good grief!!
Paul says
This pretty much sums up the current climate we live in. Great, isn’t it :
carol says
Good common-sense clip. I think we needn’t fear 1984 however – it would be like expecting that sentient beings can be turned into turnips! (Muslims have come close, granted).
I notice a lot of the posters seem to be missing the phrase “and threatened him with violence” – and so it appears no “1984” judges are really running “hogwild”.
If we can ever wipe a certain cult off the face of the earth just think about what a great laugh we’ll get out of this 21st century human comedy (not forgetting the real sufferers however).
Robbydot says
I hear you’re a first offender but that does not stop me from thinking this is serious.
The West has gone collectively insane.
Shmued B Dovid says
There is nothing Divine about muslims not eating the flesh of a pig. The murdering psycho paedophile mohammad stole this commandment from the Jews and the Old Testament in an unsuccessful endeavour to sell his sick cult to the Jews living in Medina. For some strange reason this seems to have stuck despite the fact that muslims are allowed shellfish which is forbidden in the Jewish religion (amongst other things). Therefore there is no merit or legitimacy and only brain dead muslims could be offended for something that was pinched from somewhere else to begin with. islam is a cult and does not fall under a race. Churchill and all the free western countries must have been racists by attacking the plundering Nazis in WW11 as they represented the Aryan race. The Viennese must all have been racist in 1608 when they stopped and fought the muslim rabble army from advancing further. If the Viennese failed to stand their ground in 1608 Europe would have disappeared hundreds of years ago. Racism is good. To be a racist is quite OK. According to Gordon Ghekko (not sure of spelling) greed is good too!
Angemon says
From context, it seems that the “victim” was saying something to the “criminal” before he was told to go eat bacon. I, for one, would love to know what that was.
Angemon says
For example, the “advice” being given could be nothing but dawah.
Kay says
My mom used to say “Go fly a kite.” Or if she was REALLY mad, “Go jump in a lake.”
Mirren10 says
Yes, I wondered about that, as well.
I rather think there’s a bit more to this.
But, as Robert points out, calling someone “black” is merely a statement of fact, if they are indeed black, and merely erroneous, if they are not.
This could also be a case of bloated PC/MC, plus sheer stupidity. I remember when I was teaching, and being told by one of my stupider pupils, when I referred to someone as being black, that I was being ‘racist’ .
I pointed out that facts are facts, not examples of ‘racism’.
Salome says
Meanwhile in Germany, a molotov cocktail is considered a legitimate means of political expression when used against a synagogue.
Thelastvirgingoat says
Yes of course if your Muslim you can do whatever. I’m thinking about starting my own Islamic denomination and pretend to be Muslim If I can get enough people with me we’ll start takfiring other Muslims beat their ass and claim institutional racism when the police touches us.
Michael Copeland says
An offensive message does not qualify as a crime under this law: it has to be GROSSLY offensive.
So “Go and eat some bacon” is grossly offensive?
Sheriff Gregor Murray says, “this is serious”.
No, this is not a Monty Python sketch.
It is the surreal reality of Political Correctness, and has very little to do with law.
Quite possibly the defendant did not qualify for legal aid, and found he had to fund his own defence. He may have thought the several thousand pounds that would cost him was something he could not afford, and simply pleaded guilty to get the whole thing over. Alas, this sets an appalling precedent.
DAI says
Holy fuck
abad says
He might also be suggesting to the Muslim that if the Muslim ate a bacon sandwich his disposition might change from Perpetual Greyface Muslim (TM pending) to a much happier one.
I have yet to meet someone who has eaten a bacon sandwich and not feel more lighthearted.
I mean, bacon is like chocolate: a feel-good food. 🙂

UK: Man who told Muslim convert to “go eat bacon” admits to “racially and religiously offensive offence”
………………………..
Good grief–if someone said this to a Jewish person he would not wind up court and find himself charged with a crime.
Likewise, I had some guy chatting me up a few days ago at the bus stop, and when I mentioned in passing that I was vegetarian, he said I should “go eat a damn ham sandwich”. It was fairly ridiculous, but I never would have dreamed of dragging him to court and trying to get him charged with a “hate crime”.
This is just Muslim supremacy.
somehistory says
“witness McAndrew was giving him advice ”
All he did was return the favor…and it was likely so much, much better. After all, bacon is delicious. What could a moslim say that would be good advice?
And what does a *name change* matter in this? Like that is so important that the stepson is being sent to court and likely to prison for saying eat bacon.
Beastly!
More Ham Ed says
Time for another cartoon contest. Suggested theme: draw moham_mad eating various pork products such as ham sandwiches, bacon, pork chops, pork rinds, sausage, smoked ham, bratwurst, and bacon bits on a salad.
FYI says
A few weeks ago,an islamic “poet” who was appealing for a caliphate in London was calling for muslims to (sic) ‘back beef’.
As a regular beef eater I find that statement insulting to beef eaters everywhere.
So what mosque can I complain to and will the authorities in the UK investigate??
Can we have a ‘backbeef’ protest please now ?
muslims,what’s your beef with beef??
Infidels are only wanting to “bring home the bacon” on this matter…..leave our beef alone.
Anne Smith says
Shame on the authorities (Scottish it would appear) for taking this nonsense to court, it is nothing more than a family dispute.
Truly Britain seems to have gone mad. Ten years of the rotten corrupt Blair, followed by five years of thick and stupid Cameron has allowed the little Hitlers and Nazis in authority to get totally out of control.
gavinwca says
Apparently the U.K. Has become a Sharia compliant country. Such a beautiful, historic, country gone to s**t. Hard to believe that the country that faught Nazi germany has become MUSLIM NAZIS.
rappini says
Lets leave Bacon out of this, if the ragheads don’t want to eat it that’s fine, because I love Bacon.
