 My Comments :  I have a question. What if the gomen takes action deemed stupid, what happens then? Shouldnt that be a crime as well? Shouldnt someone be arrested for being stupid? 
What if the gomen takes some stupid action which deprives a person of his freedom - for example arresting school children for making a Tik Tok video? Shouldnt someone in the gomen also be arrested   and investigated? Maybe sent to jail?
So they are arresting school children now. They are arresting teenagers who said teenager stuff in some Tik Tok video.
Is this the great "REFORMASI" all you reformasi @$$holes were shouting about all these years? Ini macam kah lu punya REFORMASI?  Kepala  b_ _ _h  kau orang.
 Let me tell you this - this increasingly stupid and incompetent gomen is not going to last. Just wait for those SIX State polls that are coming up soon. You will see how long this gomen is going to last. Not long.
And why this pre-occupation with arresting people for what they post on Social Media? It is Social Media. That is the purpose of Social Media.  You can go to the kedai kopi and condemn anything you want to your friends at the kedai kopi. That is your space. 
You can talk to your neighbour across the fence and condemn anything you want to your neighbour.  That is also your space.
Or you can go into Social Media and condemn anything you want on Social Media. That is also your space. Who asked that stupid teacher to intrude into the two boys space on Social Media? It is their space. Just like talking in the kedai kopi or talking to your neighbour across the fence.
 Nobody asked that stupid teacher to switch on his phone or computersurf the Netclick on the Tik Tok websiteclick on the boys Tik Tok video and then get offended by what he saw. Cikgu itu bodoh ke? Who asked you to watch their video?Did the boys tell you to go and watch their video? I have a question. Supposing you heard some people at the warong kopi condemning the SPM exam in the same exact manner as the two boys did then can you go and make a Police Report?  Who asked you to go and listen to people talking at the warong kopi?

Supposing you heard your neighbours talking across the fence condemning the SPM exam in the same exact manner as the two boys did then can you go and make a Police Report against your neighbours?  Who asked you to go and listen to your neighbours gossiping across the fence?

Because that is what Social Media really is - it is just neighbours gossipping across the fence or people cakap kosong at the warong kopi.
 
Tik Tok, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc are also just like the warong kopi where the public can gather and gossip, cakap kosong, debate, argue, say just about anything they want. 
 
If you start listening into every other warong kopi conversation, neighbours gossipping, Social Media video etc and start making Police Reports (and the Police take action) then you just prove to the world that you are stupid. It just shows that you have nothing better to do in your life.  

And if you are a government that undertakes such useless action it shows that you do not know what else to do with your time. I notice this Madani gomen is increasingly venturing down this reckless road. That Madani fellow just sent yet another Legal Notice to someone else over some comment that the other fellow made.  You are the CEO, the No. 1 fellow in charge. Surely you cannot be so childish and touchy. People will say whatever they want to say. It is you who should grow up.  Here I must give credit to Dr Mahathir and that Super Moron who is now in jail. Both of them Dr Mahathir and Super Moron never sent any Legal Notice to anyone for saying things they did not like to hear.  Super Moron never sent me a Legal Notice for calling him a Super Moron. I once called him a 'sewel'  and it was even reported in the Malay press. Instead he did reply me through his cyber troopers. Here is one example:
 
 
He could have used all the power and might of his position to come after me but he did not.  He did not because he should not. Period.  He could have really turned out to be someone else. I hope he will ponder things well while in prison. It is never too late to make amends.

To conclude the Reformasi guys are just bullshitting everyone. Just over 100 days in power and you can already see their fangs.  But those fangs are not new.
