re: #530 yma o hyd

So do we now cheer for the hooligans who did this, ebcause its against a Neonazi?

That’s a tough call. I always condemn stuff like this, it creates a security problem and it is in opposition to free speech (disrupting someone’s press conference). However, the BNP is so terrible that I’m on the fence with this one. If Mullah Omar had been routinely pelted with eggs while giving his speeches supporting terrorism I would have considered that a natural and healthy response to his extremism. There’s a line there somewhere, not sure exactly where it is.
