Suspect convicted of racially aggravated harassment after admitting to taunting Elissa Wilson

A 23-year-old Scottish man was sentenced to six months in prison for sending a Jewish woman a photo of himself with a Nazi flag.

Nicholas Goodwin of Troon, on the west coast of Scotland, was convicted last week of racially aggravated harassment, the Scottish newspaper the Daily Record reported Sunday.

Goodwin had admitted to sending the photo of himself and a friend with the flag, which was emblazoned with a large swastika, to Elissa Wilson in a Facebook message on January 29, two days after the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.

“When I saw that picture I felt instantly sick,” Wilson told the newspaper. “I felt it was a threat and I was frightened. It’s disgusting.”

Goodwin is serving the sentence consecutively with another jail sentence for a separate racist incident, according to the newspaper.

Justice is always harder when it's about the jews.

That was just a joke ...instead of that, anti-white violent acts are rarely punished.


We can see that everyday on french news :

when a jewish cemetery was damaged, all the national and international media spoke about it while every year more thant 300 catholic cemetery are damaged and only local medias spoke about it.

That was stupid to sentence him to prison, and this is coming from someone who was bullied growing up for antisemitic reasons. I hate what the guy did, he seems like a real douchebag and I can relate to everything that the woman said, but I'm tired of this politically correct culture too. If it were me, I would've blocked him and maybe reported him to Facebook, not contact the authorities. I believe in free speech and freedom of expression. As much as I'd like to punch him, posing with a Nazi flag falls under those freedoms.

Indeed. Of course those guys getting arrested should have known better. Ultimately, it remains a victimless crime. Distasteful joke, but we all know how things are going in European countries and they neither lived in a cave.

Yeah its going to become more and more apparent to people that they CAN be held responsible for what they do online.Most people seem to think that it just can't happen.
