Outrage over controversial Islamic group's plan to march through Wootton Bassett [must read from UK]
Telegraph ^ | 01/02/10 | n/a

Posted on 01/02/2010 8:33:55 AM PST by vimto

People in Wootton Bassett, the town famous for honouring dead British soldiers returning from Afghanistan, reacted defiantly on Saturday to news that a controversial Islamic group is to march through its streets.

Islam4UK – which calls itself a "platform" for extremist movement al-Muhajiroun – plans to parade through the Wiltshire town in the coming weeks.

The group's website says the event is being held "not in memory of the occupying and merciless British military" but of the Muslims its says have been "murdered in the name of democracy and freedom".

The town that shows respect for fallen Servicemen should be renamed 'Royal Wootton Bassett'Leader Anjem Choudary said the protest, involving 500 people, would be peaceful one, with "symbolic coffins" being carried to honour Muslim victims of the conflict. He said he also planned to write to the parents of dead UK soldiers with his version of "the reality of what they died for".

From the UK - Methinks this is wind and bluster for publicity...

I tell you now - the Brits will not stand for this - if it goes ahead they will be met by thousands of us.

Nah, throw Bacon at them..lol!

Seriously though, in some ways this is a good thing, the more the wannabe Jihaddies push, the more the people of the UK will have to make ever more difficult choices.

Oh to be there and to shower them with bacon bits as they mock the British. These pukes should be driven out of the UK and back to their ancestral hell holes.

I will most certainly be there if they try it - and believe me the Brits are so fed up with all this it would IMHO be a major confrontation. My blood is boiling right now!

You know, the man in the street is really waking up.

There won't be any bacon bits left on the shelves!

You go Vimto!

I hope you are organizing the opposition as we speak.

Thankfully they don't need me to organize it - the EDL (English Defense League) are more than capable and I'm expecting an email in my inbox from them any time now. I'll be there though.

They haven't said WHEN they intend to march. But they will have to make an application to do so. I cannot see it being granted, certainly not to walk through the High Street route through which our servicemen are repatriated and where great crowds turn out with dignity to honour them. If they do it without permission (on the quick, so to speak) the locals will mob them.

Set up a few barbecue grills beside the street where they will be marching filled with pork. be sure the wind blows across the street into their faces. That will be the last of them. LOL

Find some farmers and have the pigs herded through town that day. That should be good.

“THEY THROW A BITCH ABOUT PEOPLE GRILLING IN THEIR OWN YARD

Really? I haven’t heard of that - but it stands to reason.

BAR-B-Q for Britain - who’d a thought? Great idea, effective and fun!

Elsewhere on Free Republic there was an article about how many different Football Clubs (aka soccer hooloigans) have come together to form a league to confront muzzle yuts. These strapping lads like nothing better than beer, boots and brawling.

One is reminded of the old saying: “never wrestle with a pig. You will get covered in mud and the pig will enjoy it”

Seriously - when you think of it they don’t stand a chance against a pig or man with a pork sausage!

Do Brits do outdoor grilling?

A nice sidewalk BBQ of pork sausage, ribs, and chops would very appropriate. Imagine the aroma of volatilized pig molecules wafting over and on the devout brotherhood.

I hope they do it. It would provide the tipping point the British people need to finally poke them awake from their slumber and say ‘enough’...
