Be interesting to hear there rationale. hopefully a serious point - but as in a pub carpark possibly not! (but something more British would be hard to imagine ).

Are muslims a race?

Racial hatred?

The crazy cracker to set of a bomb in my state capitol in the name of Allah.

[Gawdzilla Sama]

Fuckin' Limeys! Burn Washington and yer a flippin' hero. Burn a Koran and you wind up in the Assizes.

I didn't notice that.

Also have religous hatred laws now (I think). might just be crap reporting.

The law is defined as racial or religious, so unfortunately it's probably valid.

PeeZed has taken note, and promises a little action of his own.

Oh man ... if there are really religious hatred laws over there, then everyone should probably be arrested.

[Bella Fortuna]

Oh man ... if there are really religious hatred laws over there, then everyone should probably be arrested.

And any religious text that disparages other religions should be confiscated and burnt.

I'd love to see a case made like that. It would be funny as fuck to see an entire religion prosecuted for inciting religious hatred.

Especially since we all know which one does just that in its own holy book...

There's mileage in this. I wonder if anyone high profile would take up the idea.

Not just Islam. The bible is pretty big on smiting unbelievers too. Deuteronomy 13:6-10 is a good example

If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers; Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth; Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him: But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people. And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die.
