Protesting against Islamic extremism is not fascism!

10.07.2012 12:18

Protesting against Islamic extremism is NOT fascism! Islamic extremism is a very serious threat which people like you refuse to confront! Islamic extremists are laughing while you fight against those who protest against it!

You don't speak for me.

@You don't speak for me.

Every time there is a post like this you troll it............... get a grip mate.......... tell me where exactly in Bristol there is islamic facism?

I'll tell you now, its not in Wetherspoons, so you can stop bloody looking in there for hours in every bloody town you visit.

Now standing up against any type of facism, is fine, using it as an excuse to get drunk and pick fights is just being a sad loser................. jog on and read all the facebook posts by your 'rank and file'........... footie hooliganism by another name, end of.

Stop trolling Indy

10.07.2012 13:23

Would both pro and anti EDL people both stop trolling Indy, we don't care about your regular willy waving or attempts to compete via keyboards. There is no right wing threat to this country any more than there is a left wing one. The people of the UK simplŷ don't vote that way and never have in numbers that could have an effect.

The Muslim community is not under threat from the EDL any more an the Christian community is under threat from Islam4GB, the people involved in all these groups are pathetic sad losers who represent nobody but themselves.

Mi5 probably knows the names and daily movements of every Muslim terrorist in the UK and I doubt it numbers more than 20 who might actually do something that is a threat, I'm sure there is a Hereford hooligan with his rifle ready for any that step over the line.

Bored

Trolling ????

The EDL is the biggest single threat to Islam this country has ever faced, their views attract an increasing number of people and we need to stop them whenever they rear their heads. Within 20 years I look forward to a Muslim Britain and I will not allow the EDL to stop that.

Its amazing how the EDL call these gang meetings but never ever manage to actually draw out the thing they are after.

You've got to laugh ;-)

Doesn't matter. Democracy = anyone can set up a party or whatever.
Anyway, your statement could equally hold true for Anarchism -- been around for a lot longer than the EDL and no one is really voting for it for an effect. So why bother/shouldn't be allowed?

>> Within 20 years I look forward to a Muslim Britain and I will not allow the EDL to stop that
WTF?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Doubt you're get much support for that except off muslims

Pfffffffffff

No to religion

10.07.2012 22:57

I have no animosity to Muslims or anyone else, but I really don't want to see our country run by religious people who believe in things that arn't real.

Atheist

Threat

ROFL..."The EDL is the biggest single threat to Islam this country has ever faced, their views attract an increasing number of people and we need to stop them whenever they rear their heads. Within 20 years I look forward to a Muslim Britain and I will not allow the EDL to stop that.

Er, hey Bob / You dont speak for me, where is this Islamic threat in Bristol? Or have you no idea at all?..................... where is it? C'mon............

The original Bob

affecting islamic extremism???

11.07.2012 07:59

Can any one of the plonkers who think the EDL is making a stand against Islamic extremism please explain just how a bunch of pissed up, white football hooligans invading towns, chanting 'Allah is a paedo' and displaying an assortment of crusader imagery is going to discourage potential or actual Islamic extremists? Even though the EDL is not exactly renowned for its analytical skills it still baffles me as to how their supporters avoid admitting to themselves that if their actions have any effect, it will be to encourage such extremism.

@You don't speak for me

11.07.2012 11:35

You certainly don't! at least you got one thing right eh?

Logic of denial.

11.07.2012 11:56

"I have no animosity to Muslims or anyone else, but I really don't want to see our country run by religious people who believe in things that arn't real."

And that would be God.

Bit odd saying that from inside the heart of Christendom.

You are governed in every way by people who take their inspiration and energy from God. The Queen, the PM, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Most of Parliament, almost all of the Lords.

How can Muslims be a threat to you given that you are already governed by what you fear the most?

Lead pipe.

How "democratic"... Islamic apocalypticism is little more than the predictable blowback of Western imperialism. Had not colonial regimes arrogated transcendental powers, there would be no external interest to eliminate them, and they could just abdicate. But since they did, it does not only converge with the internal interest to get rid of them, but also with the transcendental interest to end idenity theft, and that trinity scares the cryptofascists in the regime even more than the wannabe fascists on the street.

Eh? Our country isn't run by Christian dogma. Religion and politics are very separate.

> You are governed in every way by people who take their inspiration and energy from God. The Queen, the PM, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Most of Parliament, almost all of the Lords.

Not really. You never see a policy or a law bought where the reasons for it existance interlink with religion. No one stands up in parliament and argues "Because God said so...." Ever!

> How can Muslims be a threat to you given that you are already governed by what you fear the most?

Lol! Strawman argument. You are on a losing argument there, because at the end of the day I know what i do and do not fear - you havnt got a clue!

Muslims' everyday lives are much more guided by their religion than ours. So are their governments. Anyway - it wont ever happen. No white man is going to vote for Muslim rulership. So, the only way it will happen is if you invade us and enforce it through violence.

EDL surrender monkey'itus.

Well, at least I now know your not an EDL surrender monkey.

That's something I suppose.

Huff n'da puff.

I was in the Olympics you know.

Well its not something your wear on your sleeve. Not while your in government anyway.

"Not really. You never see a policy or a law bought where the reasons for it existance interlink with religion. No one stands up in parliament and argues "Because God said so...." Ever!"

If only Tony Blair agreed with you!

Facts

2001 Census - religion in Great Britain
Christian - 71.58%
None - 15.49%
Muslim - 2.71%

It is unlikely that a Christian would want the UK run by Muslims. Therefore, the statement that the UK will be a Muslim country in 20 years is a blatant lie written be pro-muslims deliberately designed to incite and inflame racial issues.

Next?

disgusting

All well and good but
