  • True British patience?



    How much more can you take before there is a breaking point?

    Oh, I thought this was about me supporting the Toon and the Vikings....

    Frankly, these idiots have the right to free speech as much as the people marching against the war in Hyde Park. The British response should be to boo them, as is our right to free speech, whether you believe in the war or not, but a certain group of morons are trying to march against them and kick them out of the country (which won't happen, but such are the deluded).

      Is there a limit to free speach when they call for the overthrow of the government?

        Nope, only if they decide to go about it by packing the cellars of the Houses of Parliament with gunpowder....

          I'm quite sure some of their speech is technically illegal in Britain (technically because they aren't the right colour to be persecuted).


          Freedom of speech unfortunately isn't as strong in the UK as in the US since various petty laws limit it. The US is a great place in this regard. USA

            This is what free speech means folks.

            If there isn't freedom for people to say things we don't like, then it's not free speech.

                        You know in general the type of people who run around repeatedly chanting "My _____ is better than yours are children." You know: "My Daddy is better than yours", "my house is better than yours", "my lunch box is better than yours", etc. etc. etc. Instead of telling the Muslims to ogo back to where they came from someone should politely point out to them that they're behaving in a childish manner.

                        ... and then when the Muslims attack that person the police can shoot them and still feel good about it.
                        "I say shoot'em all and let God sort it out in the end!
