Although, methinks, WE as Americans, would resolve this B.S. quite appropriately.

While America celebrates Veterans Day on Thursday, Britons across the pond are wrapping up a similar celebration called Armistice Day. Both honor the brave men and women fighting (and who have fought) in the armed services. That didn’t matter to a group of Muslim protesters on Thursday, however, who interrupted services in London with chants of “British soldiers burn in hell” and banners saying “Islam will dominate” and “Our dead are in paradise, your dead are in hell.”
The group of about 30 people, according to the Scottish Sun, is called Muslims Against Crusades. And while they screamed their hate, they were met by 50 counter protesters from the English Defence League:
“I’m disgusted,” one mother whose son was killed in Afghanistan told the Sun.
“There are people like myself that at 11am today were remembering the lives of our children, and then there are some people doing something so hurtful as that. I think it’s atrocious.”

This better not ever happen here. I'll need bail, and a good lawyer if it does.

Its what happens when you have an idiotic immigration policy and don't insist on assimilation as a condition of citizenship. Thank God we don't.....oh, crap. :-[ >:(
As far as reaction? Imagine if the Westboro Baptist idiots were illegals. If those idiots don't get pummeled I give up on the UK.

F..k pummeling, they need a .308 solution.

Path. I've gotta say this. I am a Christian man. I am socially liberal. I believe in LEGAL immigration. I don't like racism as I find it irrational. That said, if I saw some camel jockey who considered himself a muslim first and an American second cheering a soldier's death, thinking he was protected by a Constitution he spits upon? I would be sorely tempted to violence. "British (American) soldiers burn in hell? You'll be saving them a seat Ahab. And take your seventy virgins and you false prophet with you". >:(

Racism tends to originate with things like this.
These scumbags make segregation sound like a pretty good idea.

You know, sometimes I want to disagree when someone here blames stuff like this on "diversity".
If (legal) immigrants want to remember their heritage, continue cooking the traditional foods of their past, wear the traditional clothing styles of their heritage, continue to celebrate on the traditional holidays of their native land, even keep and speak their native tongue as a second language, we can all share in the diversity. Enjoy the food, the pageantry, learn a bit about the customs, even learn how to say please and thank you in that language....maybe how to order a couple of beers...
But when they would start to refer to soldiers of the enemies the US as "their dead", it be comes clear they have not immigrated with the intentions of becoming citizens of their new home. The British Soldiers (or US Soldiers) should be their soldiers and their dead should be the British killed by Muslim terrorists.
Lack of assimilation and, surely, the lack of any intent to assimilate is the problem, not diversity.

Here in TN. on the news they were saying that after yesterday Flags would not be permitted on veterans graves in Gov. cemetery
They place a little flag on each grave you know, now its under fire. What a bunch of crap.

Not sure why things like this get me so fired up. Putting a small flag on the grave of a soldier.......SOMEONE HAS A PROBLEM WITH THIS???????
Well screw them! I really don't care, it's because of that very soldier, that they even have the right to be upset about it.
Going to go pace in the corner and fume before I descend into an illegible rant.

Did they give any reasons for this?
Was it because of the cost of cleaning up all the flags in the weeks to come when they blow off the graves and become litter, for instance?
Or was it some kind of attempt at Political Correctness?

I don't know any details beyond what 2 How posted, But my Dad (a decorated Korean war Marine combat veteran ) used to mow the lawn at a local Cemetery.
He said that stuff like that was a royal PITA when he was trying to mow.

Dangerous too if they use those little wire spikes like construction flags. All it takes is for one of those to lose the flag, get bent in half, and after its good and rusty, stab dear old Ethel in the foot when she's visting her husband's grave to get your azz sued off. I can see banning them, or at least restricting the type and manner of display.

Crap indeed if that's the case. Since when did state become church? I can see prohibiting crosses if there were Jewish graves or something. But flags? WTF?

I've often wondered if the Local Sheriff would allow one to Pre Pay Bail Money? Of course that would bring your charges into the Pre meditated category but hey, in this case it would so be worth it.

It would also scare the crap out of people.
"Sir, can I help you"?
"Yeah, I'd like to but up 10k for bail money".
"OK, what for"?
"I'm not really sure yet, probably aggravated assault, maybe manslaughter, and there will definately be weapons charges. Is this where I pay"? ;D ;D ;D

Oh..is there an installment plan?
I used to wish for a similar plan for speeding ticket. Maybe buy 2 prepaid each year when I renewed my vehicle tags.
Get pulled over, hand the officer a voucher and be on your way.
