Crap EDL gang sentenced for attack on Anti fascist Gig

 http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/latest-news/top-stories/edl-gang-in-court-over-leeds-pub-attack-1-4893231

A Pathetic EDL gang who publicised they were going to smash up an Anti fascist gig in Josephs Well were sentenced in Leeds today and all escaped prison.
Interesting how Antifa activists were subject to very draconian bail restrictions and heavy prison sentences for slapping a couple of Blood and Honour Nazis in London yet a pre arranged and facebook publicised attack on a gig in Leeds recieved the equivalent of a slap with a wet fish ,If it wasn't for the intervention of a veteran anti fascist on the door who stopped them getting in there would have been far more injuries than the poor bloke who was hit in the face with a brick.

A few thoughts.

But I'm sure they would of got more severe sentences if they had not actually gone to the pub and were instead trying to leave the area at a railway station and then one of them acted in self defence after being confronted by a German bonehead. Sentences would of probably also been increased if the majority of them had not taken part in any violence. It's subtleties like this that make English law the envy of the world and ensures it fairness for all, as well as allowing police to use it without predjudice to keep the peace.

It's ironic the attack happened in the middle of the first Welling trial. Yet another indicator (as if another one was needed) of the whole nature of the Welling case.

Bullshit. That is a total fabrication and you know it! fucking liar! Is that how you defend your violent ways now?

Utter shite and you know it. Haha! can't even believe you thought you'd get away with it. What a plonker! Try listening to what happened in court for the truth rather than your pathetic lies!

I don't even understand a word your just said boy. Do you all talk like that?

Definition:
"Nihilism ( /ˈnaɪ.ɨlɪzəm/ or /ˈniː.ɨlɪzəm/; from the Latin nihil, nothing) is the philosophical doctrine suggesting the negation of one or more putatively meaningful aspects of life. Most commonly, nihilism is presented in the form of existential nihilism which argues that life is without objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value.[1] Moral nihilists assert that morality does not inherently exist, and that any established moral values are abstractly contrived. Nihilism can also take epistemological, metaphysical, or ontological forms, meaning respectively that, in some aspect, knowledge is not possible, or that contrary to popular belief, some commonly perceived aspects of reality do not exist"

> The Autonomists (Autonomistes) was a Christian-democratic Italian political party active in Aosta Valley. It was founded in 1997 by the union of the regional Italian People's Party with For Aosta Valley and some former Socialists. In the 1998 regional election Autonomists won 12.8% and five regional deputies. In 2001 the party was merged with the Autonomist Federation (FA) to form the current Edelweiss Aosta Valley (SA). However, following the 2003 regional election FA was re-established and thus SA can be considered the perfect continuation of the Autonomists.

WTF!?!!!!!!!!! Sounds like middleclass black beret wearing tossers to me

What a wanker!!

'Try listening to what happened in court...'

Do you mean the court where, despite having 25 months to prepare a case four people were found not guilty and some members of the Jury, to their credit, refused to find guilty verdicts against the others.

Or do you mean the second case where all nine defendants were found not guilty in 45 minutes?

What about the 3 who were never brought to court because there was no evidence? Two of them had their cases dropped at the last minute because, despite the relative success of the first Welling case, the prosecution knew they had no real case and had been pushing it all along.

It is very interesting looking at what happened in court. It speaks volumes. But I bet the real DS Blackburn must have been cryign into his beer. After being promised a commendation and then having such a shit result with the second case. Imagine him explaining to his superiors why he pushed wasted so much time and money on what was basically an assault case so that he could push his twisted political agenda. Of course he was simply a pawn following orders but it's still quite funny to imagine how stupid he must of felt last september. The porsecutor probably just moved on to his next case while Blackburn is probably never trusted with anything of real substance anymore. I bet he knows that his colleagues, the ones who said "never mind Sam, were all behind you, do some gaffiti and fair dodgeing cases to get back into the swing of it" are all laughing at his cock up behind his back.
