      I also think if their aim was to pull UK soldiers out of current conflics, then chanting "Burn in Hell" wont help.

      No, I don't think it helps at all. I still defend their right to think it & say it.

      The "it doesn't help" is what makes me think that act was malevolent. That is my point.

      But a lot of activism doesn't help. I don't think we can evaluate that way - will your protest achieve your aims.

      I'm sure Democrat protest on the Trump election didn't help but they must still be able to do it as long as no violence or crime

      The "no crime" bit that's hard when discussing what law should be ;) Gets a bit circular...

      Obviously, I'm arguing it shouldn't become a crime to march, speak or safely burn symbols.

      And I don't disagree with that argument. Just that specific example of it.

      That's the problem! If it be OK to do it in one case but not another, this is not freedom of expression.

      It is a problem! It's one I don't have an answer to.

      I'm getting feeling you'd like to leave it. You're not such a naturally argumentative person as me! Reached an impasse anyway. :)
