"Soldiers returning from Iraq - and marching through Luton as part of a homecoming parade - were greeted with banners branding them as "butchers, war criminals, murderers, terrorists and baby killers" by Islamic extremists.

The police had to form a protective cordon around the Islamic fanatics when local people turned against them."

What's the difference between this idiot and those idiots? They both "offended" people in public by displaying a slogan. The police protected one lot yet arrested the other.

What am I missing here?
