You Can’t Watch This
It’s looking bleak in Britainistan, where you don’t have to burn a Koran to get thrown in jail, you just have to watch someone else doing it:
In a disturbing development, Northumbria Police in Gateshead last week arrested two men after they watched and shared a video on Facebook of a man burning the Koran in the US during the recent 9/11 commemoration at Ground Zero in New York.
The men were drinking in the Bugle pub, Leam Lane, Gateshead, when they were arrested after watching and sharing the videos.
The charge was “suspicion of inciting racial hatred.”. TheEye is slightly unclear when Muslims became a “race“, but hey ho, there’s bound to be a good explanation for that. Somewhere.
This is the inevitable destination of “hate crimes” legislation – the detention of people for not liking something that our rulers do like.
Utterly stunned that this hasn’t been pulled from YouTube but even when it is it will live on via the censorship-free video hosting No Dhimmi Zone that is EyeTube. Watch this…unless you live in Gateshead.
UPDATE: The BBC have a very different version of the story here.
Somebody is certainly not telling the truth about whatever happened here.
On a related theme there’s an interesting idea over at Nothing to Declare today. Koran equipped army vehicles – blow one up and you’ve just destroyed a Koran which means ‘You burned in Hell..!!!’ 😉
Duly watched and currently awaiting the early morning smashing down of my door by the Hate Police.
Well .. it is Northumbria Police, under the command of the “dynamic” (not) Sue Sim .. when all’s said & done ..
