What's wrong with a good old fashioned ASBO?

Recent history dictates that ASBO's are given out after people have died.
Freedom of speech is at it says, if the person on the receiving end, after slagging off what you believe in does not like your response tough S***
Again, someone tell me that I am wrong, that Mohammed was not a warlord.
That guy makes Nick Griffin look a saint by comparison.

And that is the crux.
That it is ok for one person to openly attack anothers belief, but when they get payback they, or their husband, decide that they do not like it and go crying to the police.
If people enter into a debate on religion, with all that history tells us about it on both sides of the coin, things can get heated.
But you dont slag someones belief off and not expect a response, and when that response comes and you dont like what you hear, even though allegedly what the accused said was true, you then expect the courts to be on your side.

They are alleged to have unleashed the verbal abuse on this woman at breakfast in front of an audience. That is bullying, it's certainly not a 'free and open' dialogue'.

But as we do not know what the muslim convert said to the christian it demands impartial discussion, not blaming one side over the other ? which you appear to be doing even though you were not there at the time trying to enjoy your breakfast.
