UK, two men jailed for putting bacon on Mosque doorstep

Clearly our government has it's priorities in check, 'we needs to fight Islamophobia to stop Muslims killing us' seems to be the sentiment. Maybe if we bend over far enough to institutionalize their religious laws they wont feel the need to by violence.

Yet Muslim rapists have gotten off with nothing, claiming cultural ignorance, for attacking young girls. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2268395/Adil-Rashid-Paedophile-claimed-Muslim-upbringing-meant-didnt-know-illegal-sex-girl-13.html

Do you think this is worse than battery and touching kids, 2 crimes I have saw people walk out of court without prison time.
Be it a Church, Gurdwara, temple or a synagogue, abusing worshippers at any of place of worship or at any place in general is wrong and needs to be condemned.

Obviously what you just mentioned is worse, and the people who do that should be jailed.

That doesnt mean what the 2 men did was okay tho its still bad, you would be pissed if someone stuck raw meat to your door handles would you not?

They deserved it for breaking the law. Why do they feel they have the right to shout abuse and interfere with their right to freedom of religion?

Perhaps it might deter other idiots who had contemplated doing the same thing. Zero sympathy for them.

And shouted racist abuse at passer-bys that tried to remove the bacon that they placed on the floor.

On top of that, they are previously convicted criminals, who are convicted football hooligans that have assaulted the cops.

So, yes. Send them to jail.

Further proof of the special treatment received by minorities in the UK. Put some Halal chicken on the doorstep of a Church and the Police wouldn't want to know.

Because their religious freedom is eroding our rights not to live under threat of death ?

Because their religious freedoms are, in almost every way, running counter to liberalism and the freedoms of minority groups across the UK and Europe ?

You need to understand the paradox of tolerating violent intolerance.
No, you deserve some kind of education class for something this. Prison is just unfair.

The system is so corrupt. It's worse to offend someone than to actually physically harm them now? Oh dear

What does that have to do with shouting racist abuse at passer - bys?

What education is going to help someone that has been copnvicted of assaulting a police officer, stealing, football hooliganism and racial abuse?

It is disgusting how Right wingers will defend racists.

Probably help him? Because he's clearly got issues?

Let's rephrase my above paragraph since you clearly misunderstood my point. Would you rather have bacon on your doorstep (which will not harm you, unless the pig had rabies or something idk) or would you rather get raped and beaten up? Because both of these crimes often carry the same sentence.
