31-year-old Billy Thompson was sent to prison for 12 weeks after he replied "Filthy ba**ards" on a post about the Police issuing a dispersal order to try and prevent protests from becoming violent.
It also included emojis of an ethnic minority person and a gun.
His lawyer said Billy had made the comment as part of an online Facebook conversation with a family member.
The judge found him guilty of encouraging violence and imposed the sentence to "discourage the kind of violent behavior that such messages encouraged."
Judge Temperley: "It may be right that the starting point [sentence] is a community order for this offense, but I am afraid this has to be viewed within the context of the current civil unrest up and down the country." Source: NW Evening Mail
