Cartoon row escalatesAre we going to see large scale racial/religous violence in Europe? Muslims in Palestine and across the world saying that Denmark and France should be attacked. Folk marching through London saying that Britain and the rest of Europe will suffer. Chanting "UK you must pray, 7/7 is on its way" and that those responsible should be beheaded. I got angry about some of the placards and chants. Is it not inevitable that there will be some confrontation between the NF types and some Islamists around Europe?

I watched that on the news & those cartoon drawings caused so much uproar.
In the Middle East they were burning Danish flags & boycotting & refusing to buy anything that is Danish. Violence is not going to solve the problem. If we want to solve this problem it has to be done by all ways peaceful. If I am correct in a Danish Poll 31% of Danes said that the magazine should not of published these pictures.

In an act of solidarity with the Danes I will continue to buy up lots and lots of their lovely bacon!

It's so difficult to distinguish between the normal reaction and the folk stiring it up to their own ends. The MAB have come out and said the folk in London are definitely not representative and should not have been allowed to act as they have.

in all fairness a muslim boycott of danish goods is hardly likely to harm their bacon sales

Haha, good point Parkhead. I considered it today actually, but I opted for my usual Wiltshire. Such political statements are not really my style.
