ASBO

I've just heard about the case where a pub landlord was given an ASBO (antisocial behaviour order) for a sign which he put up in his own car park. The sign had pigs on it, and said "free porking here". He was given an ASBO and ordered to take the sign down because some people said it caused offence to them and their religion. This is awful; it shows a total lack of regard for property rights. The man used his own land to put up a sign which did not try to offend anyone. What's next banning the sale of bacon?

mystic, yeah, I think that that was half of the reason he was asked to take them down, but to be honest, isn't that the same as a company selling door handles called "nobs 'r' us"? Just a friendly bit of innuendo (not the italian suppository)
