How long before this sort of garbage is commonplace here in the USA?

A little background on Great Britain's poppy tradition at the UK Telegraph:
Remembrance Day poppies a history - Telegraph
The first Legion Poppy Day was held in Britain on 11 November 1921 and the following year Major George Howsen, an infantry officer, suggested to the British Legion that members should make artificial poppies to distribute to the public.
Howsen set up a small factory of workers off the Old Kent Road, providing work for veterans-many of them disabled-and their families.
The poppy was specifically designed so that it could be assembled with just one hand.
(edit)
The fact that these people were not stopped isn't tolerance. It is surrender.
Sometimes democracies need a bit of stiff rule to clean house. The old Roman republic would appoint a dictator for a period of one year where they would act as a laxative and purge the system of sh*t.
And the government arrested the counter-demonstrators.
England is lost.
Burn the thugs.
Smite the jihadists!
Smite the jihadists!
If there is any good from this, it is that:
a—The Sun has two British Muslims speaking on behalf of the majority who dont support either these scum or what they believe in.
b—this odious group is a pathetically small group.
