Hmm. Just... hmm.

SSN reporting Lopez as a one year loan deal. This is definitely wrong, right?

You're saying that whether Islam counts as a religion is a matter of opinion?

The difference between a religion and a cult is not whether or not they are true! If it were, every person on the planet would accept even the existence of (at most) one religion...

These attacks were not committed because the victim was Muslim. So no, they obviously weren't racist. Whether Scientology is a religion at all is an entirely separate debate. For me, no, it isn't - it's a cult.

Can you give some examples of what you mean them being "attacked"? If a church were vandalised with messages saying the Christians weren't welcome in this (or any) country, I would certainly view that as racism. Saying their beliefs are wrong (e.g. the church's view on homosexuality) is not racism.

Easy tiger, no frothing here. I'm actually quite calm. I just thought mis-spelling the name of the road you grew up was a strong hint that it wasn't true. However, Titanic has said it probably is, so fair enough - I apologise for that one :drink: Still seems odd that you've only joined for the...

Brought up on a road that you can't even spell correctly. Ok mate. :thumbsup: :lolol:

Apparently lives in Bradford, joined a Brighton message-board this month, posted a total of 13 times including anti-Muslim sentiment in two different threads. I claim second-account... IP check mods?

Serious question - where is this muslim area that you live in, and see this kind of thing going on (and are seen as an infidel according to your earlier post)?

A group of religious people should not have greater sanctions if, as you say, the crime is the same. If it was general abuse, the same written as your wall, then the charge should be the same. If the abuse written on your wall was racist against whatever race you are (or, if you happened to be...

Causing offence isn't the issue here - it's the fact that, in addition to the pig's head - he wrote graffiti over the mosque. I very much doubt that if I wrote offensive graffiti over your house you'd accept it was just "an act of freedom".

I have literally no idea what your point is. Are you trying to say we have freedom to do anything as long as it is deliberate? You've already admitted that freedom of speech doesn't apply... so what does?

I didn't realise the guy who did this was the local butcher. I should have read it more closely. It's a deliberately offensive act, specifically designed to offend people of one religion in particular. And, as you admit, not one that has anything to do with freedom of speech.

Exactly. Zero point in comparing ins and outs anyway... but when you include potential outs (CMS) but ignore all the potential ins then you're just twisting everything to suit you're own agenda, pottert

Fair enough :thumbsup: bushy ?

What has tying a pig's severed head to a gate got to do with speech, let alone how free it is?

Just so we're all on the same page... those that are complaining it's double standards (not that you're wrong, at all) - are you saying that the poppy burners should have also gone to jail, or that this guy should have avoided jail? Otherwise it may appear that you're also guilty of double...

Exactly.

If it's done deliberately to get a reaction out of people, there's definitely a case for it. If it's because the OP is daft enough to genuine believe it, then no; I'll just feel sorry for them instead.
