There is a bizarre case out of Edinburgh where Chelsea Lambie, 18, and Douglas Cruikshank, were arrested for defacing a mosque by wrapping bacon around door handles and, last year, throwing strips of bacon inside. It was a stupid and hateful act. What is interesting is the length of the sentences, which were a year and nine months. We have previously discussed how sentences tend to be lower in England but these are pretty stiff.
As criminals, these two flunk out of felony school. CCTV footage first caught two men and a woman at a store at 4.45am where the woman asked an assistant if she knew where to get the bus to the mosque. Then they were caught on another camera buying bacon. Then a third camera outside of the mosque shows the three putting bacon on the door handles and the woman took a picture of the men outside the mosque. They are then shown running off laughing.
The case also shows how extensive and integrated the camera surveillance in England has become.
When Lambie was arrested, police found messages on her cellphone, including “Going to invade a mosque, because we can go where we want.” Another, that was a prosecutor’s dream, said “Went to the mosque in Edinburgh and wrapped bacon round the door handles, opened the door and threw it in ha ha ha.” Lambe still insisted on a jury trial while Cruikshank pleaded guilty to the attack. Lambe got the longer sentence of a year.
The third person involved in the attack, Wayne Stilwel, was sentenced to ten months after pleading guilty last August.

Nick, I think you must have this confused with a Satanic black mass where bacon is used on the “virgin.”
P.S. Remember what Foghorn Leghorn always said.
She wrote, “Went to the mosque in Edinburgh and wrapped bacon round the door handles, opened the door and threw it in ha ha ha.” and then insisted on a jury trial??? What was her defense? That she didn’t do it?
It’s vandalism, the same as if they spray painted the wall of a church. Muslims view pork as unclean, and they would probably have to change the door handles, and anything the pork touched. But it is a pretty stiff sentence for a teenage prank.
Bacon is the gateway meat for vegans.
This shows just how close Britain is to being a failed country.
Search the Telegraph for “Pizza Express halal chicken” to read about how restaurants are starting to serve only halal meat because of the militant Islamic lobby. Then search the Telegraph for “Islamic trojan horse” to read about how Islamists essentially converted a number of Birmingham schools into madrasas.
A few more incidents like this and UKIP will be in power.
Is not Edinborough in Scotland? Is that not distinct from Jolly Ol England?
I think that it is a good idea to wrap bacon on a door handle. If you put it in a bag on the ground outside the door, the dogs or rats will get it. If there was a mosque near here I would see what I could do for them. Same with the Episcopalians. The Episcopalians are known for pissing on pale youngins. Hence the name. Cat O lics are known for licking cats. Which part depends on whether you are Scot Cat O lic or not. BapTis are known for their intelligent use of the English language. He Brews are known for world class masculine beer.
Bacon, Bacon……………….. I love having bacon & eggs for breakfast on a sunday morning.
Hey England…. Didn’t you learn anything from the last Century??? Appeasement doesn’t work! You tried it with Hitler, and we had a World War! The ‘Muslim Menace’ must be dealt with now. Don’t let ‘them’ take your country! You need to have Australia’s take on this… Muslims, if you don’t like the way things are in MY country… Go the Hell back, to where you came from!
But if it were a Prince Harry prank…..Different things for different people.
Since there was no property damage, it is absurd to give jail time. A better option would be to make them clean up the place under police supervision.
Personally, I feel, England’s Muslims………. should be fed to Pigs…… or let them stay in their damned Desert.
My reaction to this “crime” is England has started down a very bad road. A childish prank while offensive is not a crime that should result in jail time but of course it “offends” a religion of peace and love so it must be punished.
Kevin Bacon says that he was not offended.
That aint fried chicken daddy, its Shake N Bake. Send the bacon haters back to Iraq.
That ain’t Kosher …
a teenage prank, almost 2 years is ridiculous. Muslims are afraid of bacon? What kind of religion is that? Bacon in all its porky goodness is a religion. The real religion of peace and love is bacon.
When admitted war criminals are not punished for destroying the lives of millions of people, it’s difficult to justify punishing others for causing far less community disruption.
By the way, here’s the press release from the crown prosecutor:

They need a First Amendment for Porkers in England. But… England does not have a Constitution. They still have Queenie. And a family of fruity looking tooties. Bacon on the door handle is not a sin, a crime, or a defamation of a religion. It is an overchure, an across the aisle endeavor to seek members of the flock to seek out new options. “A pork in time, saves nine” and all that.
Hard sentences. Their behaviour was clearly calculated to cause fear and distress to innocent people, though.
Failing to treat such highly public incidents harshly would send a message resulting in further attempts to cause religious outrage. The true target of the attack here was community harmony.
