I would like to know what people think when they come across someone who is actually extremely unpleasant.

Can't abide the woman but a wise man once said I disapprove of what you say but I defend your right to say it.

I'm sure there's a joke in there  |

By:

 I'll tell my mate Liam "Of you" |

By:
whatever, i dont even know who she is.
I dont care what people say, as long as its not horrible about something somebody else doesnt choose (skin colour, age, etc) then i dont care. If she is being horrible about something somebody has chosen (to work with ebola patients, religion, football team) then its her choice, dones mean you have to agree who is she anyway? |

Dav
you clearly know who she is. She has been extremely unpleasant on the net that rules the world. that is it. |
|
By:
i fancy her

She's a very ugly woman with a very ugly soul.
Perhaps her physical unattractiveness is what's given rise to her unpleasantness. She can hone her body to the nth degree but she can't change those features without a head transplant. Who knows? I certainly don't care - about her or any of her vicious outpourings. She's a worthless human being. |

Speckkys for you in the new year |

By:
Ibrahima I meant in the actual sense, not the monetary one.
She can gain as much money as she likes - she'll always be a worthless human being to me. |

By:
so very true tt.

Tommy, talking of souls........... what's the difference, between a woman coming out of confession and one getting out of the bath.
One has hope in her soul. I'll get me Sacrament. |

Maybe not, but there are limits. This poor nurse is paying a very heavy price for trying to do good as a volunteer health worker, and for Katie Hopkins to target her to make such a nasty comment was very vicious and spiteful...... but typical of the woman ! Feel sorry for her kids with her as a mother ! |

Controversial TV personality Katie Hopkins has criticised people who "dial the cop shop every time we feel offended online" after she was reported to police over her Twitter outburst about the Scottish nurse who is battling ebola.
Hopkins insists "the freedom to say only things that are polite is no real freedom of speech at all", in her Sun newspaper column today. Hopkins was berated online after she wrote on the site about "little sweaty jocks", adding: "Sending us ebola bombs in the form of sweaty Glaswegians just isn't cricket." In a separate message, she tweeted: "Glaswegian ebola patient moved to London's Royal Free Hospital. Not so independent when it matters most are we jocksville?" Police Scotland confirmed they were looking into complaints they had received, but no report had been submitted to the Crown Office prior to the start of the New Year public holiday. Writing in the English edition of the Sun, Hopkins said: "I have always maintained the Boys in Blue have far better things to do than police Twitter. "But instead of argument, reasoned debate, discussion or avoidance, we now dial the cop shop every time we feel offended online. "Since when did telling teacher ever solve an argument in the playground? "The freedom to say only things that are polite is no real freedom of speech at all." |

By:
A very predictable response from her.
Of course she does not want the police to monitor Twitter otherwise her she would not get publicity for her racist and vile tirades. But then again, she will probably be crying to the police when the first person threatens her or her family. In fact, she already admitted she did complain to the police last year about trolls, but the police just told her to shut down her Twitter account if she was getting grief  |

this woman is an irrelevance, and there is nothing personal in anything she says. her comments are not targeted at the victims, i'm sorry to say that they are targeted at people like you In a nutshell. |
|
By:
she just says stuff to get the plebs talking - it works.
|
|
By:
think she is a vile person but i would defend her right to say the things she said........we need freedom of speech
|
|
By:
I would disagree with that comment. Nothing personal? Was very personal with the nurse involved.
Her seaty jocks comment is water off a ducks 4rse to be honest but I do think she oversteps the line far too often. Not surprised her column is in the sun either. Horrible vile cant of a woman. |

think she is a vile person but i would defend her right to say the things she said........we need freedom of speech Yes lets give everyone the right to say what they want when they want. I am supposing that you think there should be no limits on freedom of speech. is that right? |
|
By:
as long as they dont incite violence.........i think what she said was vile
|
|
By:
The problem though cardiff that there has to be some limits on freedom of speech.
To me freedom of speech should not give you the right to be offensive. Would you defend the right of someone to make offensive remarks at a funeral about the deceased? Of course you wouldn't and that's why freedom of speech must have limits. |
|
By:
Boo hoo. She called someone a sweaty. I've got PTSD. I need three million. Wah wah wah.
|
|
By:
Oh dear god. Now they want to outlaw people being offended. Stop. Breathe deeply and actually think where this is leading. Total and utter madness. You do not have a right not to be offended. I'm offended by your lack of tolerance of people who may cause offence that I think I should have the right to report you and have you banged up for life. After all if racism is predicated on the perception of the victim then surely my rights should be upheld as well. And where's my three million pounds? Wah. Wah. Wah.

A sign of her ignorance is sweaty is the rhyming slang ending in "sock" to rhyme with "jock", so to use part of the original rhyme and part of the original word is about as clueless as saying "Oi, Ricky, Answer the Dog and Phone will you". She's just a stupid attention seeking woman.
But I really don't like the way this country is going with seeming endless wasting of time and money chasing down idiots for saying silly things on chitter and chipping away at freedom of speech. |
|
By:
@Eeter Are you saying there should be no limits? A simple yes or no please.
BTW I don't think anyone is really that bothered with her sweaty jocks remarks but using this health worker, who could very easily die, to make her childish and stupid point was vile. |
|
By:
Another thing about her vile rant that has been overlooked is that the point she was making was wrong.
She made the point "Not so independent now" as we were having to send this potential ebola victim down south. I made this point earlier but the nurse had to go to England as that is where the UKs only 'ebola special unit' is located. |
|
By:
No Akabula I don't think freedom of speech is an absolute but I think you have to think very carefully about where you curtail it and because weak people are easily offended isn't a reason for doing so in my view. I'd be releuctant to go much beyond inciting violence. Beyond that idiots deserve to have their views subject to scrutiny and ridicule.
As for the point I think there is quite a bit of unvented anger at the way some in the yes campaign behaved during the buid up to the indendence vote. If now those people have to take some back that is only fair. I don't think Hopkins' comments were directed at those who voted to remain part of the union but at this vociferous minority and after all what would life be if we couldn't take the pi55 out of each other. As an Englishman living in Scotland I am well capable of putting up with what some Scots dish out. |

By:
But her point played into the yes campaigners hands which is the group she was attacking.
We (ie Scotland) had no other option other than sending the nurse to England for treatment a point that went over Hopkins head. TBH I don't think anything will come of the police interviewing her and it probably is a waste of resources but I'm glad if it cause her any inconvenience and discomfort. Although if they take their lead from the FA she'll get 6 months, poor Whelan. I don't get the sun so don't read her column but I have seen her a few times on the breakfast show and wonder why they have her on. |
