#FreeTommyRobinson is trending, because some people seem to think Stephen Yaxley-Lennon is a "hero" trying to bring child rape cases to light.
He tends to focus on other ethnicities though. So let's take a closer look at some of #TommyRobinson's fellow EDL members, shall we?

Meet Richard Price, former leader of the English Defence League. Convicted for possession of child pornography, and admitted making indecent images of children.
Tommy Robinson began a "Free Richard Price" campaign in 2011.

Meet Michael Coates, member of the English Defence League. Pleaded guilty to a total of eight charges of indecent assault and two of attempted rape in relation to a teenage girl, and a further four offences of indecent assault in relation to a second girl.

Meet Brett Moses, member of the English Defence League. Confessed to flying to Canada to have sex with a 13 year old girl he'd groomed on the Internet, by claiming to be a 13 year old boy. He took an 11 hour bus journey to meet her in Grand Forks.
#FreeTommyRobinson

Meet Matthew Woodward, member of the Deeside English Defence League. When police investigated, they discovered sexual correspondence between Woodward and a 13-year-old girl.

And for the people claiming Tommy left the EDL because of this, keep in mind he left in 2013 (after starting a "Free Richard Price" campaign) and explain why is it that he, the alleged champion of sexually abused children, remains silent when it comes to child abusers in the EDL.

Meet Bernard Holmes. Supporter of the English Defence League. Convicted in 2009 for attacking a man, leaving him brain damaged. Jailed for violent EDL March in 2012. Convicted 2 days ago for beating his partner until she vomited blood for rejecting his proposal. @stevieburrows64.

Apparently child rape isn't so bad, so long as it was a one time thing.
(Actually none of the examples I put up were one time offenders, but this countering argument proves my point that Tommy Robinson supporters couldn't care less about abused children.)

Tommy is "dedicated" to exposing child sex abuse. Ignores it in his own group.

Tommy rails against illegal immigrants. Convicted for using a false passport + fake name to sneak illegally into the US.

Tommy rails against asylum seekers. Begs Trump to grant him political asylum.

While wrongly accusing me of "copying and pasting", a Twitter user provided this page. There are more names on it, but it is sparse in detail, and I haven't done any research to corroborate them. Also as you will see, nothing has been copied and pasted.

Meet Robert Ewing, a member of the English Defence League. Imprisoned in 1995 for gross indecency with a 13 year old. Convicted of murdering 15 year old Paige Chivers, and later for the sexual abuse of two children aged 6 and 9.

Re: Ewing: Efforts were made to link Paige Chivers' disappearance to the Muslim community by right wing groups including members of the British National Party, the English Defence League, and related blogs. After Ewing's conviction, no comment was made by either organisation.
