State Repression of EDL: Unacceptable Treatment of English Defence League Political Prisoners By The British State
Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 5:10).
The following account is sketchy and incomplete so in effect anything could have happened. I have not managed to confirm the details, but if true this is extremely a very shocking and worrying development for civil liberties in Great Britain.
Things are starting to get out of control over in Britain. The British authorities are treating the EDL protestors from the mosque site shamefully. I am told that charges vary from burglary with intent to damage, to religious hatred. The latter charge always seems to be applied to those who criticise Islam and never to those who criticise, lampoon, and mock Christianity who do so with complete impunity. I understand that the ‘Rooftop Two’ are being held at HMP Hewell, Redditch, South Birmingham, Worcester.
I could not imagine Muslim protesters against Christianity been treated in such a way. I understand that one of the protestors is in a bad way, allegedly at the hands of the police and has a black eye and a broken arm. It would also appear that they have been remanded in custody on the grounds that they would cause public order offences if released. Contrast this with alleged Muslim perpetrators of violence.
There are some suggestions that a police officer was seen to be ‘beaten to a near pulp’ by Muslims and that police managed to arrest the main perpetrator. Apparently Muslims activists said that if he was not released then they would riot in the town. I understand that they also threatened to riot if the ‘Rooftop Two’ were not removed from their position. Shortly afterwards I hear that the ‘Rooftop Two’ were tazered by police before being arrested. This as far as I am aware is unprecedented. It suggests that the police respond the Islamic pressure as though Islam is the source of the laws that they seek to enforce.
It seems that the British establishment is now openly at war with the British people. This is completely unacceptable! There seems to be official institutional racism against those who consider themselves English at the behest of some people who consider themselves to be Muslim. This cannot be allowed to continue, the English appear to be being persecuted and maltreated in their own country. We have heard that the brothers of one of the political prisoners reports that he is now on hunger strike.
Please help publicise this injustice as much as you can, the mainstream media does not seem to be touching it. It would be good to get this in the public eye. It would appear that the elite wants to push the important issue of the spread of sharia norms and the persecution of non Muslims under the carpet.

Should all the facts be proven, then a T shirt is a must ” Free EDL Political Prisoners”

Better yet……everyone start saving their bacon grease and pork scraps. Start spreading it anywhere the Muslims want to build a Mosque….and make sure the Muslims know it.
If ground is broken for a mosque……repeat as necessary. Leave a dead pig on the foundation…etc..etc….

This is so unbelievable. where the hell are the police when Choudary stands on our street corners inciting hatred? I honestly think the authorities are frightened of islamists. Why wasn’t there any arrests when the muslims turned on the police during their “peaceful” march.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwBBScdP7AU. What REALLY is going on. Why is it a law for us and a different one for them. Two lads who are passionate about their country and culture protested because no one is listening, they are trying to help the British people and they get beaten up by the police. This situation is getting really scary.

Shame on the police and the British government.
This is a classic case of a politically motivated fit-up. They are telling EDL supporters, shut up or be locked up.
FREE THE DUDLEY 2!!!

And yet, the election results show that the vast majority of the native British people support and embrace this sort of police behavior. Stockholm syndrome indeed. You are the most supine, servile people in the world. You are psychotic masochists.

It seems that the British establishment is now openly at war with the British people.
I would like to amend that to: It seems that the British establishment is now openly at war with the ENGLISH people.
At this rate, the police will getting no support or compliance from anybody, especially the English! Are they brainless? They are certainly automatons and corrupt as hell, i.e. West Midlands assistant police chief Anil Patini.
