Title: Man guilty of burning poppies at Armistice Day
Post by: Andy B on 07 March 2011, 18:51:15
£50 fine  :-? :-? :-?
That'll teach him! Not repentant at all!!!! I wonder how an act like that would go down when he 'goes back home'?
HTF is a paltry fine like this a deterrent? £5000 would have been more like it.

£50 fine no doubt to be paid back at 50p a week from their benefits, I'm staggered, my old man fought in WWII, this country was meant to be a land fit for heroes afterwards, now it is the enemy withins paradise.

I'm spitting his blood already & my first thought on hearing this was he should've been shot on site, no messing how rather dare he burn a poppy & chant death to british soldiers through the silence. Without doubt his behaviour was outrageous & unforgivable but then i had a rare moment of reason. What would happen to us if we were to do the same in his country? Prolonged torture followed by death? Whilst i wish this on him we cannot be seen to lower ourselves to the primative level of him & his countrymen. He & his cronies should've been water cannoned, arrested, banged up & given a good kicking like you got in the 70's & 80's if you mis behaved....yes it used to go on, i got a couple (deserved) & saw/heard a few more, nothing wrong with it then shot right back from whence he came, no if's or but's.

if we multiply his state benefits by how long recieved it may come to tidy sum and therefore even £5k could be totally paltry.  However, if guilty it shows how little moral value possesed when benefiting from the state and then repaying by such totally outrageous attitude and behaviour. >:( >:(

The trouble is mate this is his country, but I tell you what I would do, I would make the Falkland Islands a muslim British state, I would bung the current inhabitants of the Falklands a Million quid each and relocate them to Britain and then ship out blokes like the poppy burner and his mates and let them get on with it, give them some farming tools and a few sheep and let them look after themselves, they can have sharia law if they want but they do it there not here.

No mate, this is NOT his country even if he was born here. I embrace a multi cultural society, i really am not left wing or racist but if he hates us so much he should leave & has no place here. Anyone frome eastern europeans to indians who choose to live here, work hard & fit in are welcome in my book. This excuse for a human being is a disgrace to our country & his by his actions & has no right to be here. Why is he here if he hates us so much? He does'nt belong & should be deportd to his origins, he must hate it there or he would'nt be here.

Therein lies the problem - if this woman - and any other people inclined to express similar sentiments - cannot regard this country as being their home then there is something wrong - radically wrong.

It appears to clearly indicate (as far as I'm concerned) that the notion of multiculturalism is flawed if there is little requirement from the state for its citizens to identify with the basic tenets of allegiance to the nation feeding, employing and caring for them.

This issue needs to be addressed with determination sooner rather than later before there is a general degeneration into fiefdoms - with all that this implies.

Yes, I certainly agree with that BJ but there is a limit.

In a 'free' society those who choose to protest their point are still required to remain within the law.

What we have seen of late is that some groups seem determined to express their dissatisfaction by using politically motivated violent means with a view to destabilising the very society they choose to reside in.

The Nazis had no problem with it.  Hitler actually welcomed Arab involvement in his attempt to dominate North Africa and the Middle East, with the Arabs supporting Hitler's stance on Jews!  The Nazis therefore worked alongside the Arabs and even had a SS Division made up totally of Muslims.

It would no doubt have suited Hitler and the Muslims for the Jews to have been fully "evacuated", or in our parlance, exterminated!! :o :o :o :o :'( :'( :'( :'(

Would the same apply if the BNP were burning copies of the koran at a Muslim event which was extremely sensitive in their culture ? :-/
Im certain it wouldnt with the authorities - they would be charged with hate crimes and Im sure the punishment would be a lot more than a £50 fine - to be paid from taxpayer funded benefits. ::)

A couple of you have have hinted regarding Andy B's "Home" post that others are'nt welcomed into our so called multi racial society. Granted some british ignorant folk are racist & don't help, but by the same count many ethnic groups don't want to integrate & have no interest in our culture. They're friendly enough when we're in thier shops but do we mix socially? I've spent years from Sussex, London, Leicester, Bradford, West Midlands visiting thier shops, restaurants, take aways & only once been invited for a meal, during Dhiwali (festival of light) & the food & welcome was amazing.

   One of you left a comment to the effect of at last the voice of reason has crept into this topic. Did you read my posts beforehand? Shameful as it is we (collectively) are as bad as the poppy burner. I've sat with lucky girlfriend at the time in many restaurants after pubs & watched drunken idiots shouting comments like "Oi Gupta more poppadoms", & i've been embarrassed by thier behaviour.

   Today Jeremy Vine had this little scrote on the phone. A few comments came in first regarding us being a free country with freedom of expression, he was only excersing his opinion & for a monent i thought well fair enough....until he spoke. He woud'nt let Vine speak & when a senior, elder Muslim who runs a mosque condemned him he spoke all over him as well. He said if we withdraw our troops from Afghanistan he'll go there.

    Not sure if they'll give him £200 a week for doing sod all though.

   We do! >:(

He's an extremist Muslim. The type that get peaceful Muslims a bad name. He also asked what the point in being british was. Even Jeremy Drone got the hump with him.

   Now i've heard him talk & his total inabilty to see another's opinion i think he's a narcissist who has no place anywhere on this planet. You had to hear him. There must be a listen again link on Radio 2, find it & listen for yourselves.

I don't know but as said the elder Muslim who ran a mosque...like a vicar? & as an IMAM?..not sure but of  high peaceful Muslim order condemned him & quoted the Koran against his actions...peacefully...he shouted all over it so no respect for his elders & betters or anyone else.

   That's ok though, we'll go to work tomorrow to pay him his £200 a week.

Had this drop into my in box today but not had chance to research it to find out if its true, if it is then this lady has balls.

Prime Minister Julia Gillard -  Australia 

Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia, as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.
 
 
Separately, Gillard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying she supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques. Quote: 
 
 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It.
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians. ' 
 
'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom' 
 
'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society. Learn the language!'
 
'Most Australians (but not me) believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'
 
'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.'
 
'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you to take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE  RIGHT TO LEAVE.'
'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.'

Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves in the U.K., WE will find the courage to start speaking and voicing the same truths.   
If you agree  please SEND THIS ON and ON, to as  many people as you  know

I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians. ' 
 
'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom' 
 
'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society. Learn the language!'
 
'Most Australians (but not me) believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'
 
'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.'
 
'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you to take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE  RIGHT TO LEAVE.'
'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.'

Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves in the U.K., WE will find the courage to start speaking and voicing the same truths.   
If you agree  please SEND THIS ON and ON, to as  many people as you  know
 
 
 


those are some great words and exacrly what is needed world wide.

I would be inclined to agree BJ and when I was trying to get some backround on this I found that the word liberal (in relation to a political party) doesn't fit into the usually accepted sense of the word we see here in Europe. ;D

Two-faced policy on refugees exposes Liberals' ugly side

Although the basic message on Andy C's text will resonate with many in this country it must be said - quite rightly in my view.
