This is what a protest of Muslims had on their banners today outside the Old Bailey, where 4 Muslims had been sentenced for inciting racial hatred and jailed for 6 years for the Muslim Cartoon row (remember the Danish cartoons?) of the prophet Muhammed pbuh.
So, if they're not happy with how the country is policed, am I alone in thinking, go home then?

hmm......this would mean that the Muslims involved are racist towards the British (police), are they not? Why is no one up in arms about that? Why are they getting away with it???? I don't understand.
To me, Britain is a liberal country. This country is where you get equal opportunity in life. Free health service, proper education, good work environment etc. For immigrants, this is the country you come to if you cannot get the same in your country or origin. This is the country you come to, to seek a better life for you and your children. A country where you can also speak your mind without worrying you'll be jail or even shot to death. Police that actually policed properly. It's great!
However, there's a line that should not be cross, right? Inciting hatred for the country they sought refuge in is OTT isn't it? Sounds to me, if immigrants does not like it....why did they come here in the first place? Shouldn't they be staying where they came from, if it's so good as they kept saying? Maybe they should migrate back to their country of origin?
Why is no one looking into this? I know that certain things are a political minefield but shouldn't something be done about problems like this? If someone threathen the stability of your country and your soceity, why can't you protect it? Why do you want to leave yourselves open and invite harm blatantly? I don't really understand how the system works but still...?
Whoever the police involved are, I'm saluting them cos' they are really brave to bring order within this sort of culture now. If they have a lot of support from the British people, the law makers, I think they will do a top job in protecting the law of this wonderful country (faults and all).

That has to be one of the least offensive banners the Muslim protesters have carried and displayed to the media in the UK. There seems to be more of an issue with the Muslims recognizing the Koran and its "laws" as superior to any laws in Britain, or the other secular states they live in. This has been politicized to the point where Muslims and non-Muslims die in many places throughout the world. Yes, I remember the Danish cartoon uproar very well, but even when such individuals return to their native lands, it is not the end of such troubles.

Definately not alone! Bugger all these do gooder idiots who try and shut people up by calling everybody racists for standing up for ourselves, face it, they are trying to take over and they are succeeding all because the government are too soft to tackle the problem properly and efficiently. They have nothing but complete and utter contempt for ALL british, non-muslim people, that even includes the people who lambast everybody else for speaking out against them. It's fast becoming very clear it's a them and us situation, integration is a total and utter crock, it won't and never will happen, people have tried being nice and welcoming to the them, but they would still kill you in a heartbeat all of these radical and extremist muslims, they hate us, we are the infidel, and the infidel must be killed if they cannot be converted, talk about Hitler wanting supremecy and world dominance, the radical muslims want the same thing and the government and most people in Britain are going about with their eyes shut and their hands over their ears and the government seemingly don't have the balls to stop it, where as we did in 1939, what's changed? We still have an evil invader trying to rob us of our freedom and country and we are not defending ourselves. I'm afraid that, the way I see it, the potential outbreak of war in the UK is getting closer and closer.

The police were clearly under orders not to arrest any of the Muslim Demonstrators unless in extreme circumstances.These orders did not apply to what might be called the Native British as some of them were arrested for protesting about the Muslim actions. Now you know what freedom under the law means when you've got a Labour Government.

YOU ARE SO RIGHT. The irony is, if they went back to the country whence they came, they would find the police there to be brutal, unjust, corrupt, with no respect for liberty and fairness. These terrorists have it too good in this country and they just don't know it.
Those 4 women (if they were women) outside the Old Bailey should have had that banner confiscated and they should have been severely reprimanded.

I think most rational Brits are getting pretty fed up with the way the Muslim community manages to protest at everything - except the terrorism which is done in the name of their religion.
The question is: why are the powers that be in the UK not being tougher, in a bid to protect us all? Why is radical group Hizbut Tahrir, for instance, allowed on every university campus, where it recruits and radicalises students? The group is banned in many Arab nations - yet has total freedom here.
It's absurd.

It must be obvious to everyone and more so to the glorious leaders of our so called free country that we can not as a race, that's us the English or British and I'm not referring to me or any one individual, we can not get on with any one who is from a foreign land be it china, India or even America if those people have come here and have decided they do not want to be English, if they have come here with the attitude of I want your freedom your way of life but I want to live under my religion which is first and foremost, if that be the case then bugger off from wenst you came we do not want you, the fact that in this country we make laws up saying you have to get on with Muslim fanatics and are told to do otherwise and we will prosecuted is proof in its self that it is not and never will work If I don't like my neighbour and he or she is white that's fine and not illegal, but for exactly the same reason I don't like my neighbour and hes Chinese or from anywhere else, I'm branded a racist, its that silly legal system again see how it keeps raring its ugly head, people all over the world can not be forced to like or dislike anything or anyone and no law will change that it will just send the truth under ground and make it harder to deal with.

So, the protesters object to the 4 Muslims being jailed for inciting racial hatred?
In my opinion, that also makes the protesters racist. They should be arrested also and deported.
If they agree with racism AGAINST the British, then they shouldn't be here.

I am with you on this one if you incite racial hatred you should be jailed. The same goes to terrorism the doctor who was arrested and his father in Jordan said my son is innocent not anymore he has been charged so they are going to be jailed and rightly so.
Like you say if they hate this country so much why stay ???
