Another amazing court decision in the UK, as protesters who chained themselves to barrels, shutting down a London Ahava shop for a day have all charges against them dropped: Anti-Ahava activists cleared of all charges
Four anti-Israel activists were today cleared at Highbury Corner Magistrates Court of all charges after they locked themselves onto concrete-filled oil drums inside the Israeli-owned Ahava shop on Monmouth Street in London's Covent Garden forcing it to close down for one day in September 2009 and another day in December 2009.
Taherali Gulamhussein, Bruce Levy, Tom Ellis and Ms Crouch, all from London, were found not guilty of failing to comply with a police officer's orders to leave the shop (Ss.68&69 Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994).
The activists insisted that they were legally justified in their actions as they claim the shop's activities are illegal because the products on sale in the shop originate from Mitzpe Shalem, an Israeli settlement on the West Bank, and are deliberately mislabeled as "Made in Israel"...

This is, of course, far from the first time. If you'd like to make a consumer statement in the UK, you take the law into your own hands. I suppose if you disagree, you will also need to take the law into your own hands. This will not end well.
This will not end well.
Indeed. Massive violence is on the way...courtesy of the Western Left.
