"You're being chewed up and spat out, is what's happening to you people. Look at what you're doing: you're prosecuting a man who is under twenty-four hour protection from attack by violent Muslim, yet he's the criminal for expressing an opinion.

"The truth is sometimes offensive. There's no doubt about that. But that doesn't make it any less true."
