If the Far-Right have indeed posted these so called 'racist flyers', then strong action should be taken against them.

But compare the White Zone posters to these 'Shariah controlled area' posters, and even though Islamic extremists have confessed to posting them, I can never remember of anyone taken to task for doing so.

Both factions should be prosecuted..
Both are obnoxious.

/// Both are obnoxious. ///

That is is if both are guilty.

There is definite proof in the second example as one of the posters is photographed.

But in the first example, they could have even been posted by an opposing group, eager to show their enemy in a bad light.
Yes both are wrong, but only one set of perpetrators will be pursued with the full force of the law. That is the real problem.
Both posters (as in the pieces of paper etc) are obnoxious.

I didn't make myself clear.
What about Bill Posters, is he obnoxious? :-)
Well he is on the wanted list ;-)

*Anyone* posting such garbage should be prosecuted. However, it strikes me that the hardest thing for the police to achieve is accurate identification of those responsible.
he's a victim of injustice, mamya

Actually, Anjem Choudary claimed responsibility.
He's in prison.
Both are unacceptable. What has happened to the Saria zone ones? Who was procecuted over them?
TheChair > Actually, Anjem Choudary claimed responsibility.
He's in prison.

It took over 20 years of pouring over documents before Choudary could be charged with anything. With his background he always seemed to know how far he could push things to avoid falling foul of the law.

A quick Google search came back with this:

But now that you've raised it - is it not possible that the Sharia Zone posters were put up by Far Right activists in order to stoke up anti-Muslim sentiment?

Oh by the way, surely these new posters are actually racist flyers, rather than 'so called' racist flyers.

I mean- they're literally the definition of racist, surely?

No read the report.

*** Hate preacher Anjem Choudary has claimed responsibility for the scheme, saying he plans to flood specific Muslim and non-Muslim communities around the UK and ‘put the seeds down for an Islamic Emirate in the long
term’. ***

If you think they are "so called 'racist flyers'" why should strong action be taken against the posters?
