Gay free zones?

Back in February their was a furore over stickers going up in the Islamic Republic of Tower Hamlets declaring it a gay free zone. Of course the number one suspicion was that it was Islamic fundamentalists though there was a suggestion from the idiots on the left that it might have been a black op by the EDL.

Pink News.
However, Jack Gilbert, the co-chair of LGBT forum Rainbow Hamlets, suggested that the stickers could be the work of the groups such as the English Defence League.
“We have evidence that they were very likely to have been produced by far-right sources in order to forment community tension,” he said.
The EDL's official policy on homosexuality is that they don't give a damn what your sexual orientation is, that's not to say there aren't homophobes in the EDL, same as the Houses of Parliament, just that they don't give a damn and will defend those who are gay from Islamists who attack them. The Koran like the Bible condemns homosexuality, though only in some Islamic countries is it punishable by death, nowhere in the West.
Still the rumours stuck in some minds that somehow or other the EDL were responsible for the stickers, at least until today.

LBC.
Stickers featuring homophobic messages have been found at several station in London - including Poplar, Canary Wharf, Whitechapel and Brick Lane.
The 2" by 4" stickers featured a rainbow flag with a red line through it and the message "gay free zone".
One found at Bow Church DLR station is belived to have been put there at around 4pm on February 12 - and British Transport Police have released a picture of a man they would like to speak to in connection with it.
Doesn't look very EDL does he?
 Now whilst there are some Muslims in the EDL, they are so few and far between that the EDL know their own so to speak and according to the EDL he isn't one of them. So where does that leave Jack Gilbert? Well I'm not going to hold my breath on getting a possible apology out of him as he's the lefts token gay in Tower Hamlets. Still it's always interesting when the truth starts to emerge and the lies begin to look rather silly and disingenuous to say the least.

Just look at all the 'organisations' 'working' in this area - and how many, I wonder, receive public money to exist?

Just a thought.........

Oh I smelled a rat a while ago when they cancelled a gay pride march through the area officially because the organiser had links to the EDL's LGBT division. But in reality because various extremist Islamic groups in the area had threatened to attack them.

There's a great difference between being a homophobe and being sick to death of the gay mafia shoved down our throats at every turn.

Colour me cynical but I wouldn't put it past some militant gay group doing it. Valid screeches of "homophobia" must be getting fewer and further between given that it has been legislated out of the average population who didn't give a sh*t anyway.

Check out 'Harry's Place' on this topic. They seem to think this rumour was started by...the police themselves!

If Jack Gilbert is so sure that these stickers are the work of the EDL then perhaps he`d be happy to take a walk through tower hamlets in a prominent gay pride/rights t shirt and then lets see what happens.

Lying by omission. Anyone who googles the posters will see the quotes from the muzzies doctrine underneath the Gay-Free logo:

The Gay community has itself become a throng of hypocritical, thin-skinned, slytherin' hoodlums posing as outstanding range-riders in white hats out to get anyone or anything that says "no" to their lifestyle or often licentious ways. There are a few of honest opinions I am sure, but they are in the minority. They are made to shut up like the governments they live under and the people their fellows oppress.
