Must not say that most heroin producers are Muslims

Even if they are. Man being prosecuted in Britain for saying so
"A man charged over leaflets which blame Muslims for the heroin trade told a jury “I’m not that nutter.”

Anthony Bamber, 54, of Greenbank Street, Preston, denies seven counts of distributing leaflets intending to stir up religious hatred at Preston Crown Court.

BNP party supporter Bamber wrote the literature entitled The Heroin Trade and was responsible for leading a campaign which sent up to 30,000 of the leaflets to people throughout the north of England over 12 months.

It demanded that Muslims should “apologise and pay compensation” for a trade which he said had its roots predominately in Pakistan and Afghanistan....

At a previous hearing David Perry QC, prosecuting, told the court that the case was about “hate speech” which was intended to provoke hatred of both the concept of Islam and also the followers of Islam, Muslims...

Free speech protections are weak at lower courts in Britain. He might have to go to the Supreme Court if he wants such protection -- which would be very expensive.

Is anyone really surprised that Brits have now made the truth illegal, especially when it disturbs their PC mentality? This is a nation that is on the brink of self-destruction. The only question is, will they self destruct, or will all their new Muslim "citizens" do it for them.

As a non-British observer, one can only assume that the people themselves are allowing their country to be consumed by this insane addiction to political correctness, since i've not seen a single sign of protest on the part of Brits. Maybe they should take some protesting lessons from their Muslim next-door neighbors. If not, then good riddance!

So what 6:32 AM happens to see or conclude from a distance must be the truth, and all the Brits act (or not) as though they are of one mind. I guess ppl in other countries might also say something equally generalizing about all Yanks (meaning all Americans) being all alike.

Whether you like it or not, under Blair and Brown the Brits as one did let themselves be led to this.
They were indeed all meekly following those who destroyed their country, showering them with scraps of bread and games to keep them acquiscent.

There was no stick, at least initially, only the carrot of a great socialist future in which everyone would have mountains of gold and rivers of milk and honey.
And the general population fell for it peacemeal and let themselves be let to the slaughter like so many sheep.

By now, it's probably too late to revert things to a healthy western society.
But Cameron is trying, and we can only hope he can at least stem the tide and hold back the flood for a while.

Anon 8:16, i can't blame you for being upset. It's not very difficult to make conclusions from a distance, not when we read stories like this almost every day, and all about the same. If i were a Brit, i would be sick watching my fellow countrymen sitting by and allowing my country to become an international joke. Understand that my own country (USA) isn't much better, but even we're not this bad. Yet.

Or perhaps, there have been major protests by the British people over what's being done to their country? Sorry, i must have missed those. In fact, the only protest i saw was the one where your new Muslim citizens were spitting on your war heros home from battle. Yes, i did see a few brits in a counter-protest, but the entire country should have been up in arms. Again, i understand you protecting your country, but, it must be getting harder to defend against that which is so obvious to the whole world.

Look to your own country before critizing others. Know this - from a distance the US looks like a hell-hole of crime and violence, a sink of decandence, of self-indulgent overweight ignoramouses who can't find Afghanistan on a map of the world even though they are happy and proud to send their sons and daughters there to die like cannon fodder, and pay through the nose in taxes to enrich the war profiteers!

Do Americans actually think that all Brits vote the same way for the same party in every election?

I guess some Yanks think that those in the UK who didn't vote for the elected Labour government in the past should have mounted some kind of organized revolution. However, it seems the anti-Obama-ites here don't feel a similar duty to do the equivalent. Hmm - the usual hypocracy and finger-pointing!

Oh, we're ready for revelution here in the USA. All Obama has to do is make one colossal antiAmerica mistake and he's toast. The troops are ready.
