Here is a supportive update on Lionheart, the British blogger facing hate crimes prosecution if he returns to his homeland.
Evidently there is an attempt to smear Lionheart's anti-Islamist credentials because an interview with a blog that some feel has fascist leanings. I say “some” because in the comment section of the post Lionheart defends his character the commenter decries the white supremacist moniker ascribed to the blog that interviewed Lionheart.

I have to post something about this Stanislav Shmulevich who through a Quran or two into the toilet at a college Library.
I understand that Shmulevich is a Jewish Ukrainian that has lived in since childhood. Although he was not registered at the college this term he was about to graduate and I presume he had taken some time off for whatever reason.
Shmulevich was caught in October 06 in the act of trashing the Quran in the toilet (or Qurans, I did not read clearly on that issue), yet it was just a week or so he was arrested and charged under the equivalent of Hate Crime Statutes. I have read the by-lines that Bill O’Reilly agrees that Shmulevich should be charged for hate crimes for his actions. I mention that because I am an O’Reilly fan and usually side with Mr. Fair & Balanced.
This time O’Reilly and the authorities have screw-up greatly! Shmulevich on video did indeed commit a crime. The crime was at worst destruction of public (or private) property. A court of law cannot adjudicate a crime that was in the mind of an individual but only the actual act of the crime. If were into arresting people for thoughts of hatred then Mohammedans, Leftists or even artists could be arrested.
I am completely dissatisfied that this can be a hate crime charge. I mean there are Mohammedan Sunnis and Shi’ites in which act out public protests that say death to Israel, death to America, death to Jews, death to those who insult Islam and on and on and on. Where are the hate crime arrests in these instances? One does not need to have the thought police to understand the public rabble rousing of hatred in the minds of those Mohammedans.
YET Shmulevich trashes a Quran or two and is arrested. Incidentally Shmulevich was arrested by a Mohammedan cop that has received all kinds of awards from Mohammedan organizations with ties to foreign terrorists like Hamas. The Council on American-Islamic Relations comes to mind. CAIR members are linked to funding Hamas with money via charity and Hamas is on the State Department terrorist list.
Here are some interesting details from Hot Air Blog:
Wow! Shortly on the heals of the Democratic Party attack on Christianity with H.R. 1592, the Democrats further wish to degenerate morality in America with H.R 2015.
Whereas H.R. 1592 affords Leftists the opportunity to prosecute as hate crimes and hate speech an individual or group that stands behind the morality Judeo/Christian tenets of faith; H.R. 2015 takes the next stab at faith by forcing businessman of faith to hire or not fire moral deviants as homosexuals, cross dressing transvestites, transgender individuals and so on.
The Bill is sponsored by openly homosexual Representative Frank Barney (D. MA – of course) and a Republican in name only (RINO) Representative Deborah Pryce (OH) and many other U.S. Reps willing to support fringe morality.
H.R. 1592 and H.R. 2015 will enable thought police to harass Christians at home, Church and now on the job. The Bill would mainstream sexually oriented deviants (according to the Bible) equal employment rights at places where there presence would be offensive and repulsive. This is more evidence of the Democratic Party’s agenda to terminate faith based morality in America and replace it with a Secular Humanist morality. Secular Humanism filters morality through principles of relativity thus attributing morality based on Leftist moral sterility that measures morality according to what is moral relative based on statistics that ignores faith as an anachronism from the past.
Secular Humanism’s agenda is to propagandize America into believing faith in God is a mythology comparable to Greek and Roman Mythology that also has influenced the development of Western culture. In effect Secular Humanism has become a religion of humanity disguised in the nomenclature secular terms and thoughts.
The Secular Humanist propaganda machine has taken the next step from educational brainwashing to using the Democratic Party to legislate its tenets and belief system as the religion of the land. Secular Humanism is using the back door to circumvent the Constitution by defining their religion as secular and non-religious. By doing this Secular Humanism has by-passed the First Amendment and has established a State Religion by disguising the Humanism as secular.
The Established Religion of Secular Humanism then can make the tenets of faith of openly Biblical Believers as matters of the rule of law. The effect is making various portions of the bible “Hate Speech” and to follow those portions by not associating with Biblically defined sexual deviants on the job market as a “Hate Crime.”
The Employment non-Discrimination Act of 2007 (H.R. 2015) is an overt attack on faith. People of faith must arise politically and write the Congressman to vociferously protest this anti-Christian legislation.
