#1 The UK needs to hire some new Peelers. No excuses for not making arrests when threats are made. That goes for here in the US and over there in the UK. Terrorist threats are terrorist threats and need to have teh full weight of the law applies to them some of that is the weight of a well practiced riot squad with hard rubber battons.

#3 Please Note: I read this artilce online at the Telegraph website last night between 1:30-2:00 am (couldn't sleep).

I went to the Telegraph site this morning to link to the artilce. The article is still there, BUT the graph reporting the arrest/detention of the two "counter-protesters" carrying placards with Mohammed's visage has been removed from the body of the article. If you read the article now you'd never know two legitimate protesters had been taken off the street by Scotland Yard "to prevent a breach of the peace".

Good work lotp. You captured the article before the thought police censors had a chance to sterilize the report.

Disgusting double standard.

#4 Um ... this article was from the BBC. But yes, there does seem to be a pattern here and in Australia.

#5 Democratic governments are supposed to defend freedom. To the death if necessary.

Not run away scared in the face of the standard violent muslim backlash against anything that offends their sensibilities.

Democratic governments folding in fear. Not a good sign.

Objection to muslim violence expressed through caricature is haraam.

Objection to cartoons expressed through violence and death threats and looting and burning and killing is accepted and defended.

This keeps up, it will result in riots in the streets. Average democratic joe isn't going to take much more of the double standrad. This is thin thin ice we're on.

#6 I wonder how long before British Jews are rounded up---cause we all know Jews incite Muslims to violence.
