Muslim jokes about dead soldiers ...guess who gets charged!
Discussion
The delightful chap that is Azhar Ahmed posted some highly offensive comments about the dead local soldiers from Huddersfield on Facebook. I think he celebrated their deaths or something equally distasteful.

Needless to say it provoked a huge outcry and some people replied with heated feelings. So what do the police do - well whilst the guy is still awaiting a court date for his comments (first trial got put back as someone picked up on the fact that his defence team knew the judge) they went after and charged/cautioned the people who commented in protest on his vile individuals post. These included an 11yr old boy.
The guy in Warrington got jail for commenting about the riots on facebook - lets see what this guy gets!
Although I won't hold my breath, as living in West Yorkshire there really is one rule for us and one slightly softer rule for anyone from of Pakistan origin.

While I'm sure the approach taken to the two sides won't be fair or equal, the people who responded weren't charged - they were cautioned. My understanding is that they are not the same thing at all.
You are right to get upset about the one-rule-for-us-different-rules-for-them culture we have, but you don't do your cause any favours by misrepresenting the facts.

Regardless of anyone's opinion on if we should be in Iraq/Afghanistan or not, wishing that our servicemen and women should be killed is extremely bad taste.
The are fighting for God, Queen and Country. Even for the rights of residents of Dewsbury, which is a s
t hole at the best of times.
Didn't some of the nice people who blew up London come from Dewsbury.
And more recently the up standing gents who got caught with weapons and a bomb on the M1.
I bet the local community are so proud of these young men they are bringing up
Anyone condoning/wishing for violence in public should be punished accordingly. Going back to the original point; saying you want to steal things from shops on twitter gets you 2years in jail, saying you wish people dead should warrant the same should it not?
