A quote often misattributed to Voltaire, but relevant none the less is:

"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

If you believe that when in Rome you should live like the Romans do (i.e. abide by their laws), then it should work both ways. Muslims protesting on the streets of London, waving banners declaring that all westerners should be beheaded because of a poxy cartoon should be charged with inciting racial hatred and kicked the fuck out of the country. It seems that you can only be discriminated against if you are part of a minority group.
Sorry, I am rambling a little, but this kind of argument winds me up.

p.s. My Christmas decorations are called just that. Not winter festival decorations, and I personally don't know one single muslim who is offended by it.
