Description: | A MAN who trained his girlfriend’s pet pooch to give Nazi salutes in response to sick phrases such as “gas the Jews” and then filmed it has avoided jail. Mark Meechan, 30, was blasted by a judge for being “grossly offensive” to Jewish people after he uploaded the footage of Buddha the pug to YouTube. Buddha the pug was trained to raise its paw in response to phrases like ‘gas the Jews’ Meechan, from Coatbridge, claims he filmed the video as a ‘joke’ to wind up girlfriend Suzanne Kelly, 29, and turn her dog into the “least cute thing imaginable”. He faced jail after being convicted at Airdrie Sheriff Court earlier this month when his video was ruled anti-semitic. But at sentencing today, he was fined £800. The accused knew that the material was offensive and knew why it was offensive. “Despite that the accused made a video containing anti-Semitic content and he would have known it was grossly offensive to many Jewish people.” |
