Re: So what?
"(and remember, membership of a group is not illegal. Only taking illegal actions is illegal)."
Wrong, and, remember, ignorance of the law is no excuse. Membership of organisations such as (from memory) IRA, PIRA, the UDA, the Red Hand Gang, Al Mahajiroun, ISIS (properly known in the middle east as Daesh) and such is illegal. Why? Because they want to kill people like you, me and so on. This is how the democratic rights of people in these fora are protected though, reading things that are printed here, one might be forgiven for wondering... ...about the state of education in this country, about the state of awareness in people whom the like of Daesh/ISIL want to kill, most especially about the ability of people to read and their powers of discrimination (independence of thought if you like) and so on; people who are members of murderous organisations that are at self declared war with this country know such organisations to be proscribed. Terrorism is an offence, to say nothing of an affront to human rights, to democracy (viewed by Plato as the least evil option available) and to common sense.
If you and people like you are arguing these points as an exercise, well you fail miserably. If you mean it, have a nice death when your turn comes at the hands of these people. As you read my lines think of the poor Yasidi girls that have been repeatedly raped by these barbarians and made pregnant, think about the show executions by axe, RPG7, knife and the autos da fe experienced by the like of that poor Jordanian pilot who, one can reasonably argue, held a more faithful view of Islam than the Islamo-facists of Daesh, Al Mahajiroun and others.
You are welcome to go out there, tell them you are not a believer, and 'live the dream'. Why don't you do that and come back in a year with a report?
