Via the BBC:
A judge said it was "quite staggering" that he could only impose a fine on a former soldier who admitted making racist remarks about Muslims.
John Parkin, 26, from Rhyl, said he wanted to "shoot Muslims in the head" and admitted being a racist.
Judge Niclas Parry jailed Parkin for 10 months for breaching an earlier suspended sentence.
But he said he could only fine Parkin for charges of religiously aggravated public order offences against Muslims.
