This is the great thing about freedom of speech. Letting Griffin air his views just allows him to dig himself a deeper hole.
This was actually why I supported the BBC letting him on question time, let him air his views and show everyone what an idiot he is. If you don't he you force him underground.
Though posting an actual address is different, that is over stepping the line from free speech into inciting hatred imo.
I suspect it won't be a peaceful protest if Griffin anticipates causing "a bit of drama" for the couple.
It seems like a strange sort of "demo", intimidating those individuals who benefit from discrimination law, rather than lobbying those who are actually responsible for discrimination law.

I actually just saw the full quote in the other thread:
"If anyone can give us address of the 2 bullying 'gay' activists who've won case v Christian B&B owners, we'll hold demo for rights of all home owners, gays included, to rent or not rent rooms to whomsoever they wish.
So Messrs Black & Morgan, at ****. A British Justice team will come up to **** & give you a bit of drama by way of reminding you that an English couple's home is their castle. Say No to heterophobia!
He's basically just talking about a demo.
I hate to defend the grinning idiot, but I can't see what's wrong with that - they willingly put themselves in the public eye as part of a political protest so have to accept some level of political protest in response... provided it is an actual demonstration and not just skinheads smashing things up, it being the BNP and all.

Surely this is blatant incitement?
Not incitement However it is deeply disturbing and of menacing character.

Would he be saying the same thing if it had been a black couple who had been turned away? Same principal, Griffin wouldn't dare say anything then pathetic coward that he is.
Also this is not someone's home they are renting, its a B and B, completely different subject entirely. Though I still think it would be discrimination in both cases.

Why should private individuals have to accept some level of political protest? They didn't make the law which worked to their favour.
This is basically saying that it's acceptable to intimidate the sort of people who benefit from a law if you have no chance of changing that law.
Woe betide the day an intelligent, charismatic leader emerges for whatever BNP-type party is in existence at the time.
I don't think it can happen to be honest, given the irrationality that would lead them to the state of mind where they'd feel they want to lead such a bunch of troglodytes.
I'm happy with Griffin to carry on bumbling on like this (although not for him to put people's welfare at risk) in order to constantly remind everyone how dimwitted they all are.

Do you think anybody who goes to court to right a wrong should have a bunch of knuckle-draggers turn up at their private address to protest if they don't agree with the way the court found?
Nick Griffin is obviously a bag-of-flour-looking grub, we all knew that. This is a further despicable act.
The thing that gets me about this whole B&B issue, is that annoying gum-heavy people come on TV to defend the owners, with the reason being THIS IS THEIR FAMILY HOME.
Yes, it is their family home - and they chose to open it up to anybody in order to make money. Nobody forced them to open a B&B - but as soon as you decide to open a business, you can't go around being a discriminatory donkey.

I totally agree. What happened if the couple had refused to let black people stay, would that be ok because its their 'family home'?

And all he did was give an email address.

He has the face of a melted troll doll and the brains to match.
Also if we go by this study, it appears his homophobia is more self hatred
You think?
He's getting roundly ridiculed in this thread.

I expect the police to take action.

Mr Griffin is utter pondlife.
That's irrelevant, they specifically targetted the hotel as part of a public political protest.

That's not what they were doing, they're activists who targeted the hotel as part of a very public political protest.
I totally agree. What happened if the couple had refused to let black people stay, would that be ok because its their 'family home'?
