Yes, it's the fault of the so called liberals.
Take away your freedom in the name of other people's freedom.
A similar example (base on exact same mechanism and reasoning):
Here in Sweden in many schools the Swedish flag and our national anthem (yeah it's a tradition here to sing it as school ends for summer) is forbidden because it can offend immigrants (actually no immigrants complained, but the Swedes themselves in a pre-emptive measure thought it could offend and hurt the foreign born lol).
(and you can guess with your little finger that Sweden is anti-Christianity nowadays as these kind of phenomens usually go hand in hand)

Please don't group us all together... and on another post, please don't group us with commies either.
I oppose a lot of liberal views as well as support some. If a flag or national anthem was banned I would be outraged. I'm all for free expression and so are a lot of liberals.

I believe I have to use the name liberal because that's the phrase used. Like Christians there are many types of liberals, but what can we do as they all claim to be liberal?
What else should i use? Perhaps left-wingers (but that phrase would exclude a lot of so called 'right wing' parties which have a similar agenda ('The people's party, the liberals' the party is called here in Sweden, and your equivalent in the UK I guess is "The Liberal Democrats").

Lol, no I'm afraid you misunderstood. It was the view of liberalism you gave, it was very broad bearing the extreme.
I don't share views with the extremists who 'burn the flag' so to speak, they don't talk for me.

Oh. Ok, great. But unfortunately you're all pushing the lot of things in the society in the wrong direction.
Besides, I think youre missing the point slightly on this topic or skewing it in the wrong direction - because I dont think FIFA is afraid of riots, I dont think that's their reason for denying religious expression like innocent T-shirts. I am afraid it's something deeper and more modern than that (see my Swedish example). Much like you uself hinted at earlier, that you're against religous people/Christians expressing their faith for more sublime reasons than fear of riots and physical violence. Because you're in fact pushing the 'mental rape' argument.
