The government should not “criminalise thought”, the UK’s terror watchdog has said, after ministers revealed new laws criminalising viewing “extreme” online material following a wave of Islamist attacks. Earlier this month, Home Secretary Amber Rudd said people could be imprisoned for up to 15 years for “repeatedly viewing” things deemed “far-right propaganda” or “terrorist material” online, but without planning or committing acts of violence.

In the wake of recent Islamist attacks, Ms. Rudd said the government could create new criminal offences, including banning orders and extremism disruption orders, backed by potential jail sentences.

Yes. The purpose is to throw in jail anyone who complains about being raped or killed by one of the UK’s new arrivals. You are supposed to bow down in submission and accept neck slicings and car bombings.

Notice how No 10 Downing Street try to blame the violent attacks in London and Manchester and all across Europe on All “Extremists”?

And let’s no forget that the government and media has spent the last fifteen years trying to brainwash everyone into believing that anyone who holds ANY views or opinions that are different from those expressed by the BBC as an Extremist.

Do not be silenced people. The Extremist here is the UK Government who time after time ignore existing laws and enact new Extreme anti-terror legislation that demonizes everyone in order to claim that they are protecting us from Violent Islamic Terrorism by making Free Speech illegal.

If violent Muslims are the problem, target Violent Muslims.

Stop using Violent Muslims as an excuse to to make us all potential criminals.

‘’Far-right propanganda or terror material’

How come the Far-Left is NEVER mentioned? It is the Far-Left, 99 times out of 100, that is involved in violence in this country!

Below is the original quote from Home Secretary Rudd. Odd that there is no mention of far-left propaganda.

“I want to make sure those who view despicable terrorist content online, including jihadi websites, far-right propaganda and bomb-making instructions, face the full force of the law,” said Rudd.

That is the Guardian, a far left publication.

The Guardian does not believe such a thing as “far left” exists.

And by her own words, neither does Home Secretary Rudd. Amber Rudd is a member of the British Conservative Party. One can only imagine how much more delusional a Labor Home Secretary would be.

Image and video hosting by TinyPic An Englishman writes the dystopian, alarming novel `Nineteen Eighty-four' and twenty years later, a Frenchman writes the hair-raising book `The Camp of the Saints' ... and their countrymen decide these are primers, not warnings. It's no wonder so many of us came to the new world. Euros are stupid.

Outlawing the opposition is the hallmark of every great dictatorship.

And that’s what’s happening in the UK.
