How can you possibly think this means "we do nothing"?

You know fine what I'm talking about. The only reason the gov took any action was because of the notoriety he gained in the British media, after some years of preaching. He's still here, and there are countless other hate clerics in this country that are free to preach their spleen against their host country. As far as I'm concerned, that counts as doing nothing.

If you want an explanation for the differing reactions to the different groups, there it is.

If we're talking about the muslims as a whole, what about the Bradford riots not so long ago? Would you say that was preferable to a fire extinguisher being thrown from a roof top and other violence we've seen from the students protests ?
