People have got in trouble for "offensive" reddit posts before

I had a really bad experience recently with drugs and started yelling extremely offensive things to police when they came to help me. I wasn't charged with any of that - I did make a very bad false claim that's specifically being investigated, but it's nothing to do with how offensive it was. One of the things I thought they would do me for is writing a note on my computer for them to find (it involved ra*e). They just asked where that stuff came from and I openly told them I wanted to say the most vile things imaginable but they treated me well and listened.
