A young Moroccan lad thought it would be cool to replkace his country's slogan, "God, The Nation, The King" with "God, The Nation, Barcelona" on his classroom blackboard. His teacher did not think it was funny and reported him. His act landed him in jail and he wasset to spend his next 18 months in prison. His father appealed and he's now out on bail muntil his retrial on November 5.
How ridiculous is that?

All I can say is that different countries have different laws with regards to defacing public property, and the slogans and icons of the country-kind of like being arrested for burning the US flag. He knew what he was doing, he knew he was breaking the law.
