Oooo there was a similar thing here recently when some local authority-employed 'wardens' (uniformed nobodies) warned a fellow that his T-shirt with a slogan including the p-word could cause an offence and that he should cover it or remove it. He refused and obviously there was no sanction the wardens could apply but in theory a police officer could give him an on-the-spot fine if they felt like it. Now if such a t-shirt is illegal than why are they legally sold?

Of course, your average cop has much better things to do than bother with such nonsense but this wasn't true recently when a young teenage girl was given a fixed-penalty-notice for drawing rainbows on the pavement in chalk. The culture of arbitary target-setting was blamed but really.....lawman have you no shame? Protect your community! There are folks being robbed and killed in the cities. Besides chalk disappears when it rains, which it does constantly!
