A UK citizen has been sentenced to three months in jail in Dubai after “insulting” airport staff who were slow to bring his mother a wheelchair.
The unnamed man was originally issued a Dh 10,000 (£2,150) fine, but his appeal against this failed and his punishment was extended to a jail term on 6 November.
An airport employee told the court that the man swore at her after she had explained the airport’s wheelchair policy to him, telling him that “a wheelchair would be made available before boarding the bus”.
“When I tried to explain it to him, he insulted me using very bad language. I told the traveller that using such offensive language is not allowed at Dubai airport but he responded that he didn’t care.”
The employee then called the police, and a case was filed against the man in Dubai’s Criminal Court. Following an appeal, which he lost, the fine was escalated into a jail sentence, followed by immediate deportation.
Fuck Sharia law, fuck draconian abrahamic religions, fuck their way of life and their culture.
These asshats are going to drag us into the dark ages because of their make believe gods.
Embrace science over religion. Socialism over cronyism.

Yeah I’ll admit it. I hate religious people. Even the ones that don’t push these practices onto others.
It’s funny to me how the ones who fully follow their religious doctrine are called extremists when they’re actually the only ones actually following the written rules.
So you’re either aggressively trying to expand your influence on the world or your hypocritically cherry picking details to make you feel better about it.
Either way I’m sick of fucking hearing about it. Idgaf which sky daddy you pray to or believe is real. Idgaf about what your special book says you can or can’t do. Absolutely none of it holds any weight to me at all and it’s just modern barbarism using religious persecution as a shield to hide behind.
“They made fun of my religion 😭😭😭”
Yeah cause you just killed 3 women for not wearing the right piece of fuckin cloth on their heads.
Western bigotry… I’m a bit rusty, is that 6 months or 9 months in a decrepit cell?
