3 Years for raacist comments on a website...
A man who posted racist messages on a website in memory of murdered black teenager Anthony Walker has been jailed for more than three years. Neil Martin, 30, put at least six sick comments on the website. Martin, a friendless loner who lived with his parents in Maghull, Merseyside, posted the comments under the pseudonym Genuine Scouser.
They suggested that white people should celebrate the murder, that Anthony's family should be burned and made frequent reference to slavery and a "banana boat".
Martin posted the messages on August 4 last year, less than a week after Anthony was killed with an ice axe by racist thugs in Huyton, Merseyside.
When Martin was arrested in September, officers also found 33 images of child pornography on his computer.
He had pleaded guilty at earlier hearings to publishing material likely to stir up racial hatred and to making indecent photographs of children.
He was sentenced at Liverpool Crown Court to two years and eight months for the race hate crime and six months consecutively for the child pornography offences.
Judge Henry Globe QC told Martin the intention of the website set up by a friend of Anthony's was "innocent, honourable and well motivated".
He added: "It was no doubt much appreciated by those who saw it and contributed to it. You accessed that website and you abused its use."
During police interviews, Martin admitted posting the messages but insisted he was not racist.
He said he had intended to stir up an argument on the website but did not believe in what he had written.

After the mass uproar that came about during non activity of the police in the first place.
Found one of the blokes:

The double standards of these people beggar belief. A crack pushing pervert arrested defending his puritinical interpretation of his religion. Madness.

Yet if your Muslim, you can close off a street while enjoying Police protection, to recrute more Muslim's to becoming suicide bomber's while praising terrorist attacks on the Western world
That's fine
Why can Muslims get away with wishing death to the West, when this guy get's locked up for typing 6 comments
Edited to say: It is funny how everyone who get's arrested for things like this always have kiddy **** on their computer

Yes, this is interesting. It will be getting worse very shortly as a new law is being introduced about sexually violent images. Where-as I'm almost positive I don't have any child **** on my computer as even the crack etc.. sites do not have links to these, violent **** is all over the place and I'm sure that there are some pictures that have been deleted from my cache but could be 'recovered'.

The political correctness ***** continue to tighten their grip on freedom of speech via the New Labour Police State - unless you are a Muslim of course. They seem to get away with saying whatever they want.

This then is like the security/terrorism laws that weren't 'targeted' at 80 years old who heckle the Nu Labia conference ..... A sad state of affairs!
I would say 'wait until they get voted out' but then we'd get Dave 'Hug a glacier' - and he's just as bad!!

Although it may take a bit more than that as I have a program that runs everynight to delete and re-write unused sectors. Still possible to recover but it takes quite a bit longer.
