Muslim vigilantes arrested

Following recent coverage of Muslim males invoking Sharia Law on the streets of London, two men have been arrested under suspicion of public order offences and have been bailed while further investigations take place.

                            "Do not dress like that in a Muslim area"

 Their actions have been described as 'homophobic' by the various homosexual organisations but this is only partly true. The alleged accused are also heard quite clearly demanding that passers by carrying alcohol should pour it down the drain and some did, in fact, comply.

They can also be heard demanding that women should observe the dress code of some Muslim females and "cover up".

I do not think that any group whether Catholic, Jewish or, even, homosexual, should take  pride in claiming that they were a target under these circumstances.

Precisely 100 years ago my own parents were stoned routinely (also in the East End of London) when they took part in the May processions with other parishioners of St Margaret's, Canning Town. Their attackers were, in the main, Orangemen but my parents were always at pains to dismiss lightly such assaults.

We should have little difficulty in dismissing the vigilante activity of a few Islamic fundamentalists except that, there is a growing undercurrent of unrest in the Muslim communities across Europe.

In the past 12 months there has been a spate of attacks on Catholic churches and events in France and Spain and this will, undoubtedly, spread to Britain.

What to do?

The Government needs to get some backbone and provide a service to the  mosques that counsels, educates and informs young Muslim men and women, as to the rights and wrongs of Islam and the social structures of the west and respect and tolerance for those of other faiths.

That would be a start.

    Um, Richard, I'll think they'll intervene only to save themselves after serious damage has been done to the Catholic/Christian communities first. Who's helping the Copts? Down with the Christians. (Especially the white, heterosexual, Christian male.)

  2. This sure was good news to read that some had been arrested. I appreciated your suggestion of what to do. Might I suggest that the government needs to get some backbone and inform said offenders that they now live in what is called "Great Britain". There are no "Muslim areas", nor any other religious "areas" in Great Britain. If they are not comfortable with the variety of beliefs and peoples in Great Britain, they can be assisted via a taxi cab to the airport, onto a plane, to an entirely different "Muslim country". But that's just me.
