    As a Victoria police officer slapped cuffs on her, she insisted she hadn’t broken a law.

    “I don’t really understand what I’ve done wrong. This is ridiculous,” she can be heard saying.

    One of the officers snaps back, “Actually you are — that’s why we’re arresting you.”

    Her boyfriend, James Timmins, offered to delete the Facebook post, saying, “How about she just doesn’t do the event? It’s not like she’s done it, she made a post.”

    But the cops wouldn’t budge. “You’ve already committed the offense,” one of the officers said.

    According to the text of the law, if the protest she was planning would have been illegal, then it looks like she did, in fact, commit a crime.

    Incitement has two elements:
      1. The accused incited a person to pursue a course of conduct that would, if acted upon, involve the commission of an offence (the "principal offence"); and
      2. At the time of the inciting conduct, the accused intended that the principal offence would be committed.

    90% chance you got one, just thinking about other people's boners... not that there's anything wrong with that, necessarily. "It is what it is."

    This is why I don’t post anything on Facebook. I do all of my nefarious planning on here.

    I use facebook to keep in touch with my family all over the country and post my modeling shots. Don't use it for anything political. Instagram as well.
