Your thoughts
Wondering what folks think of the new proposed anti-extremism measures in the works in the UK? This would be the proposal to deport non citizens whose rhetoric supported and exorted towards violence, govt overthrow etc.

I’m all for it. The Brits have more lax laws than we do concerning this. They have although shot themselves in the foot by demanding (on the very same day the Islamofascists announced they will now use women and children as bombers in the UK) that police NOT profile based on race, religion or any other reason. No, not all terrorists are Arab or even Muslim. But let’s face it, if there was a religious cult that was made up of 99.9% redheads and they were bombing civilians who do you think I should be on the look out for the most? Blonds? Duh.

The UK will pay for this in more attacks.

Being PC is more important to the whiney, sissy socialists than being effective on terrorism. "Profiling is racism!!" What a pile.

To bad the UK does not have an ACLU to protect the poor little terrorists' 'rights'. ;-)

Actually that measure also has language to strip individuals of citizenship.

I see the difficulty in identifying those who pose actual threats from those who simply spew hot air.

Next question, what brands of "extremism" will be targeted? Just Jihadists and the IRA? I can see this easily being expanded for political gain.
