Say Again?

Peculiar brand of tap-dancing while hair-splitting here:

...On Sunday afternoon he went to a shop in Nottingham to buy cigarettes and was first called "Taliban" by the youths and then set upon.

Nottinghamshire police described the incident as racially aggravated, not as Islamophobic, angering Muslim groups and surprising some senior officers.


But I'm pretty sure your average Brit could give a hoot-mon if Muslim groups are angry.

While I think this blind mob crap is completely wrong I don't think it was "Islamophobic" but rather "Islamopissedoffic".
