Dear Mr writer, it is an indefatigable fact that, this is not a simple free speech as you you have put it in your long,long piece.How do you threaten some one to do your wishes with death and call it a free speech, whereas you the writer cannot create even a human hair.It is also not [a clear case of abuse of power] nor a boyish practical prank, this is all about destroying some peoples lives. May be, you might not have been born when Flt Lt JJ Rwalings took power in Ghana in a military Coup de tat and murdered many ,many people in cold blood and cupped it with the death of 3 prominent judges one of who was pregnant woman with a baby in her stomach,and an ex major Acquah of Ghana Army.Do you write your piece to support and a bravado to Rawlings for killing all those people, and Army generals and go away with it.You people have not seen any thing yet,and that is why you support such cruelty against your niebours, but mind you,the Bible has said it in black and white ink from the Book of Excl 12 which says there is time for everything.

Those disrespectful Muntie-3 were lucky Ghana is not kind of California. Their minimum jail sentence would have a year. Read:"California Penal Code Section 422 — California’s law on criminal threats — defines “criminal threats” as the crime of threatening to kill or seriously injure someone. The crime is committed when you intentionally place another person in fear of being killed or seriously injured. Criminal threats charges can be filed as either a misdemeanor or a felony. In both scenarios, the penalties can be severe and life changing. Under California penal code 422 a threat made:
In person,In writing orBy electronic means
is considered a criminal offense. Even if you do not intend to carry out these criminal threats, California law treats it as a crime. Criminal threat prosecution only requires that the words were used in a way that constituted a believable threat. Words communicated in the heat of the moment can be construed in the same way as a well thought out threat with real intent behind it.
Examples:
Telling your ex-girlfriend that you will kill her current boyfriend if she continues to date him;Sending your former boss a fax to the office that reads: “You fired me. Now it’s time for you to pay. I know where your kids are.”
Those making noise should shut up. The Justices in Ghana. cannot be faulted because the framers of our Constitution vested much power in them.1

Idiot, get it in your empty cranium that if I say I am going to rape your mother tomorrow it is not 'free speech'. It is criminal; and yes it is sacrilegious!
Stupid fool, how long will it take you to learn that "your 'stinking' freedom ends where one's nose begins"?
Obviously, only an avid cat meat muncher and a certified 100% concentrated Akpeteshie imbiber of your execrable ilk will write this crap. You are, indeed, a total waste of your parents' sperms and ovum. What a faceless twerp!

There is a perception that the judiciary is pro npp and that is why they bend their back to please them.It is more so with the supreme court who identify themselves with elitism as people tend to see the conservative npp.
The ndc has unfortunately been identified with the socialist veranda boys syndrome and classified as such.It was nauseating during the npp petition and the length at which the sc went to tolerate the posture and disrespect of Addison the lead counsel for npp.
Context is everything and the sc could have taken into consideration the media climate where inflammatory language was the order of the day.It was as if the competing radio station were vying for who could be rudder.And that is why a general warning should apply to the various radio station where Kenedy Agyepong presides.
The ec position is analogous to an appeal court judge but the sc treats that institution as if they are an enemy institution and tend to counter every decision they make in favor of the opposition,You just listen to the cj saying they can not sit down for the ec to plunge the country into war and hear Justice Akufo saying that even the president has no authority over them.Was that necessary.it is the same with the ec which is equally independent of any institution including the judiciary.
So to be fair both divides left and right radio stations were guilty of bad language which was only hot air generating more heat than light.The impression is that the right wing media is treated with kids glove whilst iron glove is used on the left wing media and this decision has not help matters.
I would not go as far as calling on the president to exercise his prerogative powers of pardon because that may backfire politically and become the message used against him in the coming election but after that the president can absolve them unconditionally with a pardon but for now they should live with it.

The author has done a good job of stating his case. Readers may disagree. There is however no room or cause for insults, irrespective of the side readers and comment writers choose to identify with.

The shallowness displayed by the Supreme Court judges who dealt with Abu Fulani Ramadan's cases starting from declaring NHIS cards unconstitutional to the wholesale deletion is mind boggling and disturbing. It is the biggest dent to their reputation and not what was said by those "harmless" panelists on Montie FM.

Unlike npp who wud hv supported & defended these utterances, no NDC person has given them thumbs up for that. The punishment is too harsh & the Prez. must quickly act on the pardon. Is it not the same threat the npp man issued? Didn't yr flagbearer say all-die-be-die. npp threat & NDC threat, are they all not the same? How can one man's threat be so serious than the other when the other had rather asked for funerals to be planned.

I am wrting to add a very important point to the comments made by Mr.Dekportor.Now why is he focusing only on the Montie 3 but not others who threatened to murder and succeeded murdering those they murdered.Should the courts of Ghana wait for them to commit what they threatened to do? Look at their faces they look like all those who have murdered other people.But for don't attempt to threaten me.

Ignorant writer, go back and read Ghana's political past and learn about the 3 high court judges including a nursing mother and a military officer who were abducted in the night and murdered. A kwaseato like you with no common sense and probably walked from your village to Accra can post such nonsense. Threatening is a serious offense whether you know it or not and by all measure the perpetrators had lenient sentences if you check the statute books. Maybe ignorance and stupidity has taken much of your gray matter to write such nonsense.
