You get arrested for calling Islam a "wicked vicious faith?" I don't want to live there.

BNP Leader Arrested for Bashing Islam
LGF
The leader of the British National Party, the bigoted anti-everybody group, has been arrested in a race hate probe.

Several British readers forwarded this item, and almost all noted that the BNP has been allowed to get away with openly racist and antisemitic statements for years, much worse than the anti-Islam statement quoted below. It’s only when they’re caught “smearing Islam” that the coppers move in.

LONDON (Reuters) - Police have arrested the leader of the far-right British National Party after he was secretly filmed calling Islam “a wicked, vicious faith”.

Police arrested Griffin, 45, at his family farmhouse in Wales and took him to West Yorkshire, where officers are conducting a major probe into the activities of BNP members.

Griffin, later released on bail until next March, told reporters on Tuesday: “This is an electoral scam to get the Muslim block vote back for the Labour Party.”

Prime Minister Tony Blair’s popularity plunged and his trust ratings plummeted after he took the country to war in Iraq.
