QUOTE (Strafin @ Jun 6 2018, 03:28 PM) I havent read a lot of posts on here but at the point Tommy Robinson was arrested, the defendants hadn't been charged. Therefore they are not rapists, groomers or anything else, they are citizens just like the rest of us. That is the very crux of the issue really, because that seperates Robinson from other journalists and sums up why he isn't just doing the same as the others. exactly.

I believe they had already been found guilty and were about to be sentenced. Hence them bring bags with them to court.

Out side a crown court? where the defendants were appearing? Even with your limited grasp on reality it should be obvious that you can't be a defendant in a Crown court without first being charged? Plays Phail music!

QUOTE (je suis Charlie @ Jun 7 2018, 07:19 PM) Except of course there was no prejudice in TM's post either implied or explicit. Prejudice is a door that swings both way, if you want to see worst case, look in the mirror. Why do you want them to get away with it sooo badly? what on Earth can you have in common with these people? Where does he say or imply he wants them to ‘get away with it’?

I’m unsure what my ego has to do with it, but are you seriously expecting us to believe your mind is not already made up? your colloquialism is a frequent used method of implication to a point it is obvious; to claim otherwise would just be obtuse.

I wonder what odds Mr Hill would give?
