Follow up to the cartoon protests
You may remember when people demonstrated over the "Muslim cartoons". Several banners and placards were displayed such as:-
It now turns out that over 500 people complained to the police, and they have now decided that there may be grounds for a public order offence and 5 people have been arrested. Not quite incitement to murder but at least its a start.

Wasnt there loads of arrests about a week after the protests. they didnt want to arrest people there and then for fear of a full scale riot so faces were caught and persued at a later date. Could have sworn we heard of arrests less than a week after the protests?!?!

Take every one of them holding a placard and beat them to death with it, or, failing that, beat them to death with one of the cartoons, poetic justice in action 
Who is up for a "Death to the Islamic Hate Mongers" protest? Wonder how long we'd last?
