#5 So when can we expect the boys from Scotland Yard to show up on Mr. Choudary's doorstep?

They'll try to arrest Pamela Geller for triggering him.

#4  Here is California law on it. I would imagine that the UK law is similar, except for Islamists, which get a pass.

1. Does it Rise To The Level Of A Criminal Threat?

California Penal Code Section 422 — California’s law on criminal threats — defines “criminal threats” as the crime of threatening to kill or seriously injure someone. The crime is committed when you intentionally place another person in fear of being killed or seriously injured. Criminal threats charges can be filed as either a misdemeanor or a felony. In both scenarios, the penalties can be severe and life changing. Under California penal code 422 a threat made:

*In person,
*In writing or
*By electronic means

Even if you do not intend to carry out these criminal threats, California law treats it as a crime. Criminal threat prosecution only requires that the words were used in a way that constituted a believable threat. Words communicated in the heat of the moment can be construed in the same way as a well thought out threat with real intent behind it.

Examples:

Telling your ex-girlfriend that you will kill her current boyfriend if she continues to date him;

Sending your former boss a fax to the office that reads: “You fired me. Now it’s time for you to pay. I know where your kids are.”

2. Can The Prosecutor Prove It?

To prove that you are guilty of “criminal threats,” the prosecutor has to prove the following facts or elements:

You willfully threatened to unlawfully kill or cause great bodily injury to another person or the person’s immediate family;

You made the threat orally, in writing, or by electronic communication device;

You intended that your statement be understood as a threat;

The threat was so clear, immediate, unconditional, and specific that it communicated to the person being threatened a serious intention and the immediate prospect that the threat would be carried out;

The threat actually caused the person to be in sustained fear for his/her own safety or for the safety of his/her immediate family; AND

The threatened person’s fear was reasonable under the circumstances.

#3  Dunno much about UK law but I would think that making death threats should be some kind of violation. If that kind of law is not enforced then chaos will be the result. Maybe that's what our rulers want.

#2  That way we can start deporting or charging with treason those who advocate Sharia, like Anjem Choudary.

That would most likely shut up Choudary. He likes collecting his welfare from the Brits.

#1  the UK has allowed faith courts to dispense sharia for minor family matters.

it should reverse this immediately. Sharia should be banned outright as treason.

No court should be able to dispense or enforce any law not passed by Parliament. If Anjem Choudary and his Islamist pals don't like this they should run for Parliament and try to pass their Sharia laws through due process.

If they don't like the law of the land they should leave. Emigrate.

Those who preach Sharia should be charged with treason. This would be possible if you first designate the Caliphate as an enemy state with Sharia as its system/ideology

That way we can start deporting or charging with treason those who advocate Sharia, like Anjem Choudary.
