I’m so sure Christians commit violent crimes against gay people! Gay-bashing is obviously a popular past-time of most ivy-leagued-educated, atheist college professors and wealthy, unreligious New Englanders! How dare the GPA much such an unsubstantiated statement!

I’m thinking of printing my own advertisement. My initial design consists of a tearful monkey sitting
at the feet of a gay man. I’m in the process of coming up with a catchy AIDS awareness slogan.

[...] Incitement to religious hatred is illegal under the Racial and Religious Hatred Bill. And yet the more extreme anti-gay pronouncements of some religious groups is not covered. Hence the Gay Police Association’s recent newspaper advert (published in the Independent’s Diversity supplment, 29 July 2006 in the run up to EuroPride), drawing attention to the increase in recorded violent homophobic crime attribute to religious belief, is being investigated as a “faith crime” by Scotland Yard (BBC: “Gay police in anti-religion probe“, PinkNews: “Gay community backs GPA’s anti-religion ad“, MediaWatchWatch: “Gay police under investigation for “faith crime”“) while the shocking factual claims of the advert are being largely ignored: In the last 12 months, the GPA has recorded a 74% increase in homophobic incidents, where the sole or primary motivating factor was the religious belief of the perpetrator.

The GPA Ad falls foul of the law and has been reported by many people who were offended by the attempt by the GPA to bring religious hatred against bible believing christians.

1. It has been reported to police stations all over the country as a breach of the law as inciting religious hatred. Despite the Pink news comment that only ‘one’ person complained to Scotland Yard the truth is the Police have been inundated with complaints.It has also been pointed out that the GPA are also guilty of religious discrimination in singling out Christanity (which sees homosexual behaviour as a moral sin like adultery theft etc) when other religions such as Islam have enshrined it s illegal behaviour in countries less tolerant than our own.
2. It has been reported to the advertising Standards authority who are giving the GPA an opportunity to prove that the ad was legal truthful and honest. As far as I am aware the GPA are being asked to show that there are links between those who believe the Bible and violent attacks on people who indulge in homeosexual behaviour.
3. The Independent received so many complaints that they had some full time taking the information as they could be held to account for supporting the Ad shoul it be shown to be illegal. The Police are considering prosecution and the Independent are not responding to the furore of objections yet.

It is unlikely the politically correct masters of the Police prosecution servioce will actually take any action against their own people and in a country that does not believe in holding criminals to account I am saddened but not surprised.There is plenty of scope for prosecuting people who put the wrong trash in their recycling bags or drop an apple core on the street but no heart to prosecute those who stir up religious hatred against christianity when it tries to uphold moral standards against the behvious of those who follow such unnatural practices as the homosexual lobby.

I do not believe we should make moral laxity illegl but its a shame that anyone can say anything nd do whatever they want against christianity but if we so much as suggest that in our view innorality is wrong and damaging to society the family and the nation we receive constant harrassment.

[...] Pink News carries most of a rather verbose press release from the Gay Police Association. It defends its publication of the bloody bible ad, while reassuring faith groups that it wasn’t attacking ALL religion, mentions freedom of expression which comes with “responsibilities” etc etc. [...]

Why didn’t the advert show a Koran instead of a Bible?

So this homophobic vicar wrote “so macho” did he ?

I wonder what he had on his mind when he wrote it ? I bet it wasn’t the bible!

Hypocrites, the lot of ‘em.

Do you think Jabberwocky lives under a bridge, and gets duped by trios of “rough” goats?

Or could I be wrong, and they aren’t simply an irritating Troll, but sincerely believe that preposterous nonsense about “cultural” marxism…?

In which case, how much do we want to bet they aren’t exactly un-aquainted with, say, the BNP, perhaps? Got any interesting tattoos, Jabberwocky?

Anonymous posting, natch…

Assuming the GPA have the data, well, Go the GPA! Up here in Dunfermline we firmly rejected “smiling” George, and it would be nice to see this case go to court, so that he might have to dip into his pop-pap-filled wallet to contribute to the resulting costs award…

@anotherstuart: it was- or wasn’t a case of effective publicity in that CMTV did help close down a much needed facility in my neighbourhood – possibly others – due to intimidation of volunteers and false complaints to the authorities, but in turn my alerting various folk at the time may have helped put pressure on them to remove the link eventually.
@sconzey: The CI are so well connected at Westminster that they wouldn’t need to advocate violence, though whether their homophobia is demented or just copying the US right, who use issues like sexuality and abortion to tie up liberal politicians while their business mates get their real undemocratic agenda through under the radar, might be worth considering. Maybe rather than just write them off as simplistic fuckwits might be worth considering who their sponsors are, and why?
