Wasn't the first use of the new anti-incitement law against a pro-life activist who supported attacking abortion clinics or something? IIRC there have also been firebombs from animal rights activists in the past few months as well. In NI there is still some tension between the Loyalists and the Republicans, and between the Loyalists themselves. Then there are the neo-Nazis.

Profiling the "Muslim Race"-Impossible no such thing exists

Why does everyone insist on equating Islam with a race?

So yes I am in for of profiling, however I am for religious, not racial profiling.
So how would you go about doing this profiling? How would people qualify to be profiled? Would all Muslims have to register to be profiled, or only a subsection? How would you define that subsection? Would converts have to register upon conversion? How much data do you think this will throw up? How are you going to deal with all this data and turn it into useful information?

Most of the intelligence we here in the UK get from the Muslim Community comes from bugging mosques, or from under cover agents who blend in with the in crowd of the terrorists, the latter method not an anonymous phone call is how we defeated the most recent plot to blow up ten civilian jets.
Any cites for this? Also, how are you going to get undercover agents into the incrowd of these terrorists if you're going to alienate the entire Muslim population?
