Elon Musk faces trial over 'pedo' tweet

Elon Musk must defend himself in court after calling a diver who helped save Thai schoolboys trapped in a cave a paedophile, a Los Angeles judge says.Mr Musk is being sued by Vern Unsworth, who helped rescue the 12 boys from Thailand's Tham Luang caves.

While efforts were ongoing, Mr Musk sent engineers from his Tesla company and a small submarine to Thailand to help free the boys. It was never used.Responding in a series of tweets, Mr Musk elaborated on how the submarine might work and referred to Mr Unsworth as"pedo guy".

Elon Musk is a wanker of the largest proportion

But Theresa can hide 114 Westminster peado files...without any recourse

Excellent.

Words and actions have consequences? Who knew?

A trial because someone called someone else a 'paedo'. Whether a joke or just an ignorant insult, why the hell is this being treated as a crime. Is no one thick skinned or capable of hurling an insult back anymore? Must we run straight to the authorities because we were offended.

After compo the snowflake. Hope it gets thrown out.

worth about £5M would say

Good, but he'll get off I bet.

This is a rediculous suit. 'All about the money for Unsworth.' 'Pedo' means childish or boy child in the dictionary. How can that possibly be harmful. Unsworth started it all by stating it 'was merely a publicity stunt' after Elon spent mega $ to merely help find a solution.

Good absolutely outrageous slur

Good.

Too big for his boots.

It doesn't matter what sort of a person you're talking about unless they're a paedo don't call them it To do so waters the word down and instead of it meaning 'Dirty filthy scum' it becomes just another word for someone you dislike

He was smoking that day?

Being a billionaire doesn't prevent you from being an arsehole

Quite right

Good how dare he

A pedometer is a small device that counts the number of steps you take. It is also called a step counter.

Good lord some fragile egos at play here.

Here’s his tweets for you guys. The pedo tweet is at the bottom

jail the smug kant

Good

Good, the smug git needs taking down a peg

imagine going on trial for a fucking tweet.. what is the world coming to?

Should be on trial for not being able to spell paedo, I thought he was a genius?

Oh what a meanie. 😂😂pathetic world we live in my 6yo boy even ignores name calling

Thank God someone is clamping down on mean tweets!

Should be charged with stock price manipulation too.

Because the UK is an authoritarian police state, less interested in combating real crime, and more interested in policing the thoughts of people on social media.
