It's not only immigrants. This parade was to welcome home the RIR from Afghanistan. [

I was digsusted with the protest Lance but surely the point is that the protestors were allowed to express their views. I think you'll find that the backlash against this protest will prove what a decent country this is.

There will not be any backlash H, we are not allowed to upset anyone!

The irony is that it's because of our troops that they are allowed to air their views in public. Maybe they should all go to Iran or Afghanistan and try a similar protest. I'm pretty sure they would not be allowed to do so.

We all want freedom of speech and yet some cannot see how or why this is allowed. Democracy is alien to some yet they are hypocritical enough to use it to their advantage when it suits.

Just the point I was going to make Stoop, although there may well be some truth in what Tink said.

Does freedom of speach allow you to shout Fire in a crowded cinema?
