Thing is, and I'm not saying I think it's right or wrong but there's a difference between standing together and being antagonistic - where the line is differs from person to person. Some will say we're not doing enough, others will say it's too much and this is what I think the basis for it all kicking off will be.

And people obviously will. All I'd say about it is if people deliberately antagonise someone (whether a person, section of society, a community, country, region, religion etc) then they have to be aware of reprisals.
No I'm not saying people deserve it, far from it and neither am I advising anyone to not antagonise or whatever. But those it's aimed at are unlikely to just shrug their shoulders and walk away, as much as we know they should.
