A group that protested Remembrance Day celebrations in England have vowed to demonstrate again Sunday.
The organization, Muslims Against Crusades (MAC), said it will fill two minutes of silence at 11 a.m. on Remembrance Sunday "with an unrelenting condemnation of the British Armed Forces."
Remembrance Sunday is held on the second weekend in November in the United Kingdom. It is marked my ceremonies at local memorials as well as two minutes of silence at 11 a.m.
The same group burned a large model of a poppy and chanted during a moment of silence during Armistice Day ceremonies on Th

If they plan on holding this demonstration, then legally they should notify the authorities of their intention to do so, in which case the council or the Police can petition the Home Secretary to ban the protest on the grounds it would be disruptive, much like they did to the EDL march a couple of months ago. That said, if it is a static demonstration, then I do not believe such action could be taken.
Also, I did read the the thread about the Poppy burning demo the other day, but was too busy at work to chime in. I did see alot of people wandering why they weren't arrested for incitement to racial or religious hatred.
I am willing to bet that, much like the Students who rioted in their demo, they where having their pictures taken and evidence collected for them to be arrested and prosecuted at a later date. They did this to the Muslims who did much the same style of protest at a repatriation of dead soldiers. They got sent down for a few years each as a result of their hate filled nonsense.
If people really are upset by these idiots, then I strongly recomend that complaints be made to the Police. People must remember that, on the whole, the Police are here to "keep the peace" not "enforce the law". If complaints are made about these idiots, then the Police are obliged to ibvestigate and I can pretty much gurantee charges will stick. Instead of whining about it on internet forums and facebook, we should exercise our rights and use the law.

If they go through with it, then they do not deserve life. How dare they protest a ceremony that remembers the fallen heros that fought for THEIR freedom. If something like that happened here in the US, I would be so very, very, very angry. How dare they..

Also, these cretins had better remember that there were massive protests by the British people against these wars, yet somehow they feel they can piss all over us because "we're attacking them".
