Was the heckler actually Muslim and was this "heckling" as a result of racism or because of Mr. Griffin having "distributed leaflets linking Muslim gangs to the heroin trade"?

Good point, I dont read anywhere that the guy was a Muslim.

Also this is an alleged threat, Griffin being his usual bumbling self isn't the most reliable person under pressure.

:yh_rotfl Sorry Abbey, I have to laugh at you as I just knew this would happen.

If it was the other way round and the tabloid reported 'A Christian' threatened to kill a Muslim', it would be a closed case.

Hmm. I can see one possible way this went:

Griffin: "You lot should all be sent back where you came from."

Irate British Muslim: "You and your sort should be shot."

Griffin: "Help! Help! I'm being oppressed!"
The crowd: "Yes! We are all individuals!"

Lone voice: "I'm not."

What utter bollocks!

Nowhere in that report did it mention what religion he was, for all I know (or care) He could be christian.

When has a tabloid reporting anything been a closed case? They lie anytime they think it will sell more copies and they exagerate as a matter of principle.
