Grammatically incorrect poster

Are you serious?  Provide an example please.

I was forced to truncate the original title because the FR system would not allow it to be posted in its entirety.  Here it is in all of its original glory:

Gay penguins expelled from zoo colony for stealing eggs are given their own to look after following animal rights protest
 

Pretty much what I've become accustomed to in the British tabloids.  Not the way I would have written it given the chance, but FR rules forbid us from altering article titles.  I altered it only enough so that it would be accepted by the system without changing its meaning.
