A NEWPORT shopkeeper has been forced by police to remove a T-shirt from his shop window because they felt it “could be seen to be inciting racial hatred.”
Matthew Taylor, 35, the owner of Taylor’s clothes store on Emlyn Walk in the city, printed up and displayed the T-shirt with the slogan: “Obey our laws, respect our beliefs or get out of our country” after Drummer Lee Rigby, 25, was killed in near Woolwich barracks in London last week.
But following a complaint from a member of the public, police came to his store and threatened to arrest him unless he removed the Tshirt from sight…
…A spokeswoman for Gwent police confirmed: “ We did have a call from a member of the public. We visited the shop and asked him to remove it (the T-shirt) as it could be seen to be inciting racial hatred.”

The exact same circumstances take place in the United States every day. One person complains, everybody else in the U.S. has to placate to their wishes. Majority no longer rules, liberal idealism is the mantra today.
The shirt is not intended to incite racial hatred, it is intended to suppress racial hatred.
Liberals have it completely backwards.
I wonder which race was offended. I'm guessing they were talking about the muslims. Islam is a religion not a race.
England.. look at what you have become!
USA...you are following the same footsteps...
