1. As he just explained, in this case he was talking about police reaction to a very real crime. Or did you not read his last post?

2. GT is not about peace, and never has been. The only way GT will ever know peace is if politics and religion are banned from discussion here.

Bottom line: Mookie read something that wasn't there, and complained about something that wasn't there, and several people have decided on their own that this was yet another Muslim-bashing thread. Go back and re-read Sky's first post, and show me where he is attacking Islam.

Read it again yourself.
Perhaps Sky could do a topic about the huge Belgian child sex scandal that the police did nothing about because they didn't want to be seen upsetting the people and the groups involved. But of course it isn't immigrants and it isn't muslims so there is no scope for him there.
So until then its just another of his its the moosleems topics.

Let's be honest, Steve. Would Skybird have posted this if it wasn't a story from his Islamophobic website that didn't involve a roving gang of Muslim rapists? My money's on no. The implication here is clear - Muslims are dangerous criminals, and Europe is on eggshells trying to cater to them and just generally being PC weenies.

Besides, I could have posted my comment in any one of our other multitude of Muslim bashing topics. It's not like we have a shortage of them.

You forgot about sex, gender, science, and virtually any other topic you can think of. So the only way we would ever have peace here is to bar anyone from posting to begin with.

I found the subway one more interesting.
Someone got robbed twice on the subway in a huge city during a 4 yeatr period. Thats not bad going really.
As for the police reaction to that?
Low level street crime with a worthless description of the criminals. Was there any surprise at all in the police reaction? The "colour" of the criminals makes no differece at all to the police reaction as you could have described two white berliners and the police would give the same reaction.
Same with the organised crime gangs, thats par for the course whatever jurisdiction you are in and whatever the "ethnicity" of the gangs.
Taking action is always tricky and securing a conviction is even harder.

Everyone should be able to understand those truths as they are so basic, however some people are not willing to understand those truths because they have their own agenda, in this case its about muslims and immigrants and nothing more.

Was there a huge Belgian child sex scandal that the police did nothing about? If not, then you, as you always like to put it, have no point.

What you or I think he would have done is irrelevant, as is where you put your money. The fact is that he complained about police having different standards for different groups.

Perhaps you should have. In this thread it was unwarranted and off-topic.

It'd just spread to the other forums. At least here it's all gathered together in one spot.

I disagree. The implication and intent was very clear here.

Where exactly? I didn't see it until people started making the association, and I still have to squint real hard to see it that way.

On the other hand even though I check every thread every day I tend to skim over ones that don't interest me. Maybe some others should do the same.

If not?????
which one of several would you like?
300,000 people protesting against the police, courts and politicians for their inaction might just raise a blip on the radar.
For that matter you can easily pick any of a dozen countries off hand where similar problems have arisen...only its not Muslims or immigrants so its not good to go.
