Today, two men are facing charges of "using words likely to incite racial hatred" for daring to criticise the failed experiment of multiculturalism, and describing the religion of Islam as a “wicked faith”; a charge which seems utterly ludicrous in the context of all that has been perpetrated in the name of Allah at home and abroad in recent years, never mind the centuries of conflict and bloodshed in the Middle East, North Africa, Iberia and the Balkans.
For daring to stand up and tell the truth about the threat in our midst the two accused could face up to seven years in prison in a court in a supposed western democracy where “the truth is no defence" (the law states that "the truth is no defence" when charged with race related "crimes").
Part of their alleged "crime" was to state the risk of a possible terrorist attack by asylum seekers and 2nd generation Muslims. These words were proved true by the 7/7 bomb attacks in London last year.
What is your opinion?

i think it is disgraceful!!-we have lost the freedom of speech in the UK and are now being forced to bow down and comply with the wishes of individuals and organizations who preach racial hatred far louder than the two gentlemen to which you refer. when you consider that certain characters were allowed to preach hatred on the streets of london only a few months ago unmolested by the law only serves to fuel my disgust and contempt for this puppet government. the only reason the two gentlemen are in court is because certain government officials know they have ballsed up on the asylum issue and all they want to do is bury their head in the sand and pretend its not happening-well i am afraid it is. and but for the two men in the dock no-one would know the truth. i wish them good luck.

The words freedom mean such different things to some people. I am not surprised but I am angered unless they did commit a violent act with the running of the mouth. If not we are in alot of trouble Americans , sit up and take notice.
