Can you provide factual documented evidence that supports this statement?

Perhaps you can explain what "all the time" means n your terms of reference, because I suspect even extremist muslims need to sleep...  Shocked

Rubbish. Reference just one. If they're really doing it all the time, you shouldn't have any trouble citing one.

Quote:
In a recent discussion with Gandalf, Gandalf expressed his support for charging the Muslims holding up the beheading placards. I disagreed with him. Unlike you, I am consistent in my views.


Well by "recent" you mean about 4 years ago, but anyway...

Australian law is very clear on incitement to violence. When you get a bunch of rampaging thugs being violent - then yes, the slogan "behead those who insult the prophet" in that context could (and should) be interpreted as incitement. This is obviously very different to a peaceful protest in which protesters are calmly calling for the death penalty for blasphemy - regardless of how distasteful we find it. Context is everything.

In this case, yes. Would you be whinging if a muslim was making an anti Christianity video and police charged them with the same crime?

So it doesn't matter how you get them there, so long as they end up in jail?

If someone promoted hatred of Nazis, would you also want to see them in jail?

Do you?


Would you like to try giving a straight answer this time John? He is not charged with promoting hatred.

You just said anyone promoting hatred should go to jail. Now you are back pedaling already. Would you like to make your mind up before I spend several pages seeing how far backwards you will pedal?

I will try to dumb it down for you until you realise your hypocrisy.

Here it is again for you John. Note the absence of any references to hatred:

When was this law made?


2001

Charged under S 25 (2)....

(2)     A person must not, on the ground of the religious belief or activity of another person or class of persons, knowingly engage in conduct with the intention of inciting serious contempt for, or revulsion or severe ridicule of, that other person or class of persons.

Note

"Engage in conduct" includes use of the internet or e-mail to publish or transmit statements or other material.

Penalty:     In the case of a body corporate, 300 penalty units;

In any other case, imprisonment for 6 months or 60 penalty units or both.

    (3)     For the purposes of subsections (1) and (2), conduct—

        (a)     may be constituted by a single occasion or by a number of occasions over a period of time; and

        (b)     may occur in or outside Victoria.

Do you support this law? Regardless of who it is being charged?

Do you still think anyone promoting hatred should go to jail?

i  already answered that FD. I told you I didn't have a problem with the law (2 or 3 times). I'm not sure why you think asking 500 times is going to help you.
