Jakarta Governor Basuki Tjahaja Purnama said he has prepared his family for the possibility of his imprisonment if the authorities find him guilty of blasphemy.

"I thank God that I have a good family," he told Tempo news on Saturday, adding that his family understands that his position as governor comes with certain risks.

Impossible .... FD reassured us that if he was going to be charged, they would have done so on the first day. You must be mistaken. Cheesy

I know, just highlighting some of FD's ridiculous comments. I put up an article showing he was to attend court earlier today.

No doubt John will be along soon to reassure us all that it is not "meaningful"....

please don't tell me you think this was BECAUSE of the protests? Grin

The blasphemy laws were in place long before last weekend.
Police had always said they were investigating.

Cheesy

What do you think about the fact people protest on the street, and demand arrest, because someone dared to talk about their beloved Koran? 100 injured. 1 dead. Over criticising the Koran. Where do you think this behaviour comes from?

Where do you think, Alevine?

I'm curious.

So you're concerned about the protest being more violent than about the mere fact thousands of people protest and demand a person be punished for criticising a book?

their country, their laws .... I don't usually concern myself with laws in other countries unless I am visiting that country and only to the extent that I don't want to break any of their laws. If the Indonesian public is happy with the laws, who am I to disagree with them? If they aren't happy it's up to them to petition their MPs to change it. I really don't give a stuff either way. They have to live with them, not me.

Ah yes, a petition. That should fix it.

Karnal - I asked you a question.

Don't want to say, eh?

Is that because you don't really blame Islam, Alevine, or you do?

We're curious. We're keen to know what you think.

I did. The thesis was that the imams are going for the governor because he's an anti-corruption crusader. They paid the protesters 50,000 rupiah to go to FD's demo. Islam or corruption? Corruption or Islam? Questions questions.
