Remember: quoting Winston Churchill in Britain can get you arrested. But carrying around an Islamic State flag? Well, it’s illegal to support the Islamic State, but this isn’t really support, now, is it? One wonders what the bemused dhimmis who run Britain today would think actually constitutes support.
In any case, remember: opposing jihad terror can get you banned from Britain, but Islamic supremacist preachers have the run of the place. And remember one other thing as well: as Britain gallops toward ruin, pointing out that it is committing suicide makes you a racist, bigoted Islamophobe.
“London police slammed for not arresting man draped in IS flag,” Times of Israel, July 6, 2015:
As the United Kingdom prepares to mark the 10-year anniversary of the 7/7 attacks and is still reeling from a terror rampage on a Tunisia beach resort in which at least 30 Britons were killed last month, London police are being criticized for failing to arrest a man wandering around a major site draped in an Islamic State flag.
The man was photographed by tourists on Sunday walking near Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, wrapped in the flag and with a small child hoisted on his shoulders waving a smaller version of it.
The police told The Guardian that its officers saw the man and even spoke to him, but decided not to arrest him because he was not committing a criminal offense.
“The man was spoken to by officers, with consideration given to relevant legislation, particularly the Public Order Act. The decision was taken by officers at the time that the man was acting within the law. He was not arrested,” the police said in a statement.
“Wearing, carrying or displaying of an emblem or flag, by itself, is not an offence unless the way in which, or the circumstance in which, the emblem is worn, carried or displayed is such as to cause reasonable suspicion that the person is a supporter or member of a proscribed organization.
“While support of and membership of ISIS is unlawful it is not a criminal offence to advocate the creation of an independent state,” it went on.
A Home Office spokesman told the Daily Mail that “ISIS is a proscribed group. Showing signs you are a supporter of that group is an offense. It was an operational decision and we cannot comment on individual cases.”…

speechless about ” our ” leaders how they betray us more and more and let that scum take over 🙁
voytech says
Awesome how this coward put a child on his shoulders so no one can punch him in the face smh P.O.S
Shane says
Liberals will burn the American flag but defend Muslims for waving the jihad flag.
marc says
Carrying that flag should in itself should not be an offence, neither should a flag with a motoon (i wonder how the police would react to that?). But I would hope the police now have this highly potential mass murdering genocidal jihadist on their radar.
Of course he was just pushing boundaries as they always do and using his kid as a human shield, also as they always do, i bet there was someone with a camera waiting for the photo-op of any confrontation.

Unbeknown to most, the fightback is well under way…….
PRCS says
What about those British laws which prevent true freedom of speech (Paul Weston quoting Churchill as an example)?
Pere LaChaise says
Britain First might be able to become a very positive force in the country by making the embrace of traditional Christian religious and patriotic values popular. For BF to achieve success, its members must make a Christian confession of faith in an orthodox manner – Father, Son & Holy Spirit, One God. I don’t see even the Archbishop of Canterbury being able to do that these days without hedging his bets. By relying on the Church of England for spiritual guidance, English Christians have lost their way. Perhaps Prince Charles may rise to the occasion to defend classic orthodox Christianity ( ha has made some statements that indicate as much). BF needs to decide what they mean by Christian. The CoE had historically been able to hold the nation together in churches through it doctrine of ‘comprehensiveness’ which amounts to a gentleman’s agreement to disagree, yet remain nominally in ecclesiastical union under the Abp. of Canterbury and the Sovereign Monarch.
Britain needs to find its connection to its roots in Christian faith. It won’t be easy as for more than a century its people have been generally bad-mouthing Christ and the Church. A very big repentance is in order, followed by re-baptism and deep re-investment in regular participation in church life. I worry that the CoE, with its encumbrances, is capable of renewing the British people. Hopefully Catholicsm and Orthodox Christianity may prove more generally available to give sacramental gifts to a repentant Britsh people.

After man brandishes ISIS flag outside Big Ben now a shopper parks car emblazoned with flag of Hezbollah at an Asda (and, yes, that’s allowed too)

Why not encourage as many of them as possible to go to islamic state fron all around tge world then drop a nuclear bomb on it
Pere LaChaise says
That kind of ‘thinking’ makes reading this forum excruciating. Does it ever occur to you that there are Christians and others there under IS’s occupation, suffering in ways you will never know in your idiotic complacency?
Edwater says
W*T*H*, the blokes must be under a spell, huh? The whole country is being mesmerized by WHAT! Is somebody putting something into their water?
Angemon says
I wonder if the same nonchalantness would have been allotted to a man wrapped in the Israeli flag… I suspect the police would have made him remove the flag because the, *ahem*, “Asians” would react violently.
simpleton says
the difference of civilized man (flag wearer) and the savage (who reacts violently).
Whoops, both are wearing a flag.
Perhaps it is when or if the camouflage is removed to show the true supremacist sharia colours of the ideology, or the democratic practices that Israelis live by.
simpleton says
Yes the rule of sharia is here, as only one, the supremacist ideology can be a flag bearer
simpleton says
Ahh, it must be that one must be so offended and have such serious and emotional distress , that could one could cause a great outrage that may be dangerous to the health of the flag bearers, and perhaps to nearby innocent collateral general public, and even to the offended person.
That is how you can claim that level of hurt and harm , that may lead to charges .
When markings of an ideology can represent such superiority, which can be an assault on the dignity of certain people of the general public then special privileges and protections are needed , as after all the law is the law , and the people are free and so we make more laws to help deal with such sensitive issues.
All cliches drawn from listening to a debate on radio about what should or not be allowed as free speech.
I am really offended just seeing the signs representing an ideology, but obviously not so offended as per above being a civilized man, not supporting savages…….Though my free speech may be muzzled by xenophobic racism claims by controlling authorities.
hocus pocus says
stupid dhimmi england. in countries like the uae and jordan he would hav been arrested and sentenced to death. but us infidel countries hav to hold to these “high standards”
Matthieu Baudin says
I expect the U.K. Bus bombings were so long ago that they’re now forgotten, along with the hapless pedestrian victims; business as usual, no need to be alarmed by terror organisations letting off a bit of steam by waving flags.
Donovan Nuera says
I am guessing that the odds of that poor little girl riding her monster-dad’s shoulder having had Female Genital Mutilation already is about 50-50. In the Daily Mail article, there was no mention of the police confronting this jihadist. That made me made enough as that people around this guy (who was not hard to see and in one of the most crowded places in London (save Trafalgar Square) did not tackle him and pound his face into the pavement; but that the police, who are sworn to protect the citizenry, did not even think of arresting him and putting his child with child protective services, has made be blow an aneurysm out of frustration. It’s like if a Boston PD officer commented to the Tsarnaevs on how nice their backpacks looked as they were setting them down behind a family of young people. These officers, and their commanders, need to be sacked, ASAP! There should be an alert for people who snapped a photo of this jihadist to forward their photos to MI6, the Met, and all of their friends on Facebook. Or at least publicize what the ISIS flag (and Hezbollah, and al-Nusra, etc..) look like so people bloody recognize them??!!! It is 7/7 already!!
John Alexander says
And just in case the British people are so stupid as to wonder why somebody carrying an IS flag was not arrested the BBC explain why at: http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/33410837/why-this-man-wrapped-in-an-islamic-state-flag-was-not-arrested-in-central-london
While at the same time they leave us in no doubt as to why Sgt Blackman has to serve life for killing an enemy combatant. The judge at his trial totally ignored all the mitigating circumstances but our fastest growing demographic had to be reassured that a #Talibanlivesmatter. There’s a great piece on that at:http://john-moloney.blogspot.com/2015/06/free-sergeant-blackman.html
Newt says
Such typical cowardice of these idiots. Just as they slaughter people tied up and unarmed, so this coward parades under an IS flag abusing the protection that carrying a child offered.
I like to think if it wasn’t for the kiddie on his shoulders, someone would have decked him!
I certainly would have!
voytech says
On the money with that comment . I would have knocked him out and tossed him into the garbage .

Would carrying the swastika flag be acceptable?
I guess so.
Rob Crawford says
How’s that different from what he was carrying?
David, Thailand says
Problem is, should anyone now decide to follow that man’s path with a swastica they simply cannot be arrested, since the comparison would shame even the Met.
John Thomas says
Why wasn’t he arrested for “child abuse”?
Liam1304 says
““While support of and membership of ISIS is unlawful it is not a criminal offence to advocate the creation of an independent state,” it went on.”
What?! I mean whaaaaat!??
If this person isn’t “supporting ISIS” then what is he doing?
Hello!? Anybody in there? Is this thing working?
They don’t speak English in England any more. They can’t figure out that 2+2=4 anymore.
A German can walk down the street in London in 1940 draped in a swaztika and its OK ‘cos he’s just advocating for liebensraum? Never mind the annihilation of those pesky Jews, homosexuals, Christians and political opponents – noticing that is rascist.
This is all REALLY disturbing.
Sam says
UK deserves Islam. Period.
duh_swami says
In the US, all flags are protected as a form of free speech. Except the Confederate X flag, that is subject to scorn, and self censorship and some would ban it all together.. Of course the X flag means different things to different people, where the ISIS flag means only one thing…submit to Allah…or else…
The X flag does not demand you submit to a demon…
Too bad more Brits don’t have the same type reaction to the black flag, as the US has to the X flag. Imagine what would happen if someone wore a X flag tee shirt to a ‘hands up, don’t shoot’ demonstration…
Lioness says
The police were afraid of muslim riots if they arrested that SoB. There would be an immediate unrest and cries of islamophobia. So in order to be PC, the police doesn’t want to “provoke”, because as we know the muslims get provoked easily.
Donovan Nuera says
Someone should (ok, I will…) tell the Metropolitan Police that they will lose more budget money buying new batons and nightsticks if they don’t regularly use the ones their personnel already have. It is like not turning over the engine of a car in storage once and a while; the engine will lock up. The batons will crack and corrode if not used at least for 30 minutes a week against hooded jihadi rioters….(or maybe all the cops should be armed over there rather than being forced to wait for an “armed” officer to stop by in his or her squad car who might get stuck in traffic or is in the loo on break; cf: Rigby murder scene)
Newt says
Why, oh why, did no-one set fire to it?
Uncle Vladdi says
One wonders what the bemused dhimmis who run Britain today would think actually constitutes thinking.
David, Thailand says
Given the state and quality of Brit leadership, the Islamic State flag will probably be around longer than the statues that man passed in Parliament Square.
John Thomas says
He should’ve been arrested for “child abuse”!
Glen says
Why is this surprising? The UK is the biggest supporter of ISIS, to protect them the media, mainly the scum in the bbc, have even changed their name to daesh so as to make the caliphate less obvious or sinister, daesh, it sounds like a nice curry one of our millions of ‘Indian’ restaurants would serve up!
The UK and it’s authorities provide the most fighters for ISIS, then they welcome them back with open arms after they have had enough of chopping off heads and killing Christians, they pay the very worst of the hardline imam’s to live with their huge families as free as a bird (what sort of country can cry crocodile tears for the Tunisian and July 7 victims and then admit to keeping the masterminds in relative comfort at the taxpayer’s expense?), they will make a Brit take the Union Flag down but allow an ISIS flag to be publicly displayed…how long till they are flying over the thousands of mosques?
The UK is not far from being taken over, I just can’t wait for the liberal vermin to come running for help when they discover that the muslims hate them every bit as much as everyone else, the UK is a downtrodden and cowering nation, I can’t believe I live in the same country that produced great generations of men and women who would defend our country to the death.
What they built for for our future the lefty liberal scum have squandered, but there will be no fight back from the UK, that will only come when other more committed countries have had enough, then people, the silent majority, will rise and put the enemy within down.
John Thomas says
Surely It wasn’t Jeremy Corbyn.
