(UK) Three men in court charged with stirring up hatred of homosexuals
The Telegraph ^ | 1/28/11 | Nick Britten

Posted on 01/28/2011 10:38:31 AM PST by markomalley

Three men have appeared in court accused of stirring up hatred of homosexuals in the first case of its kind in Britain.

Ihjaz Ali, 41, Umar Javed, 37, and Mehboob Hussain, 44, are accused of distributing threatening written material intending to stir up hatred on the grounds of sexual orientation after they were said to have handed out leaflets calling for the death penalty for homosexuals.

(snip)

It is the first prosecution since laws outlawing homophobia came into force last March. The Public Order Act 1986 was amended by the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008.

KEYWORDS: homosexualagenda
First it starts with this being illegal under the Act. It will soon follow that any opinion not fully supporting the homosexual agenda will be criminalized.

Coming to a country near you.

It seems the world is forcing normal people to choose between two extremes - accepting the homosexual agenda full-bore, or accepting those on the other extreme wanting to chop their heads off.

policing thoughts and opinions is just around the corner. It is a logical sequence to anti discrimination laws there and here.

I'd really, really not want to have the name “Mehboob” and be a guy in an English speaking country.

From a safe distance, yes.

That won't last.

It’s the British version of cowboys and indians. Not sure which is which, though...

Apparently one of the few things that will prompt UK authorities to arrest a member of the ROP is anti-gay conduct. Planning bombings, not so much ... /s

Somehow, I can predict this winner. Faggots who don't like icky guns, or terrorists who learn how to use them as toddlers. And the winner will not be so forgiving.

“Ihjaz Ali, 41, Umar Javed, 37, and Mehboob Hussain, 44”

I’ll go out on a limb and guess it was the Quran.

You won’t get to watch what happens once the three are locked up in cells with “room mates.” Is it halal if a Muslim squeals like a pig?

Their whole damned cult is full of hate! They hate Christians, Jews, homosexuals and everyone who doesn’t belong to their death cult.

They outlawed homophobia? I wish they’d outlaw acrophobia. Then I could take up rockclimbing.

I certainly don't advocate the dealth penalty for homosexual behavior, though I'd be open to ,m,uch more erious criminal penalties for forcible sodomy, sodomy involving a minor, or malicious or reckless HIV transmission.

BUT these Muslims are not advocating the freelance killingof gays, but rather a chnce in the criminal code, presumably appealing to their fellow citiens and legislators to make it so via democratic processes. In aother words, this is political speech.

Political speech ought to be protected, period.

On that spectrum, I'm right of center.

The Brits still think a fag is a cigarette.
