SpielfĂĽhrer Firmly,
Some factual information about the work Tell Mama are involved in. From the Tell Mama website. The TELL MAMA national project can support and assist individuals if they have been subjected to anti-Muslim prejudice or Islamophobia, whether through a street-based, on-line or institutionally based incident. The figures below represent our initial insights based on preliminary data gathered since our launch. A more detailed report will be published in July 2013. •632 anti-Muslim hate incidents reported to â€MAMA’ since March 2012, • Muslim women increasingly targeted (58% of all incidents), • Victims of incidents range from a five-year-old child to an 89-year-old pensioner, • 2:1 ratio of female victims in Islamic clothing to men in Islamic clothing, • 74% of incidents take place on-line, • 6% of incidents involve attacks on mosques/property, • 5% of victims are white converts to Islam, • Three-quarters (75%) of perpetrators are male, • Far Right BNP/EDL supporters linked to over half (54%) of all cases, • 23 arrests, 18 prosecutions (cases pending), • MAMA pursuing review of police decision not to charge EDL leader, • Trend of rising Islamophobia, recorded by YouGov figures (7 March) No-one should suffer Islamophobic hate incidents and crimes. Reporting in such events is the only way to ensure that the perpetrator understands that their behaviour will not be tolerated. Anti-Muslim prejudice or Islamophobia, like anti-Semitism or hate crimes against people with disabilities, is unacceptable. No community should suffer because of who they are. It is simple as that and anti-Muslim prejudice is a virus that must not spread. Our caseworkers will be able to assist you in a number of ways, including (i) providing a "listening ear", (ii) signposting, (iii) casework and referrals to mainstream partners like Victim Support or Neighbourhood Watch and (iv) working with you to collect evidence that can be used by the police in possible prosecutions. We also have a range of solicitors that provide pro-bono advice that you may be able to access through the project if you have suffered an anti-Muslim incident. And for SpielfĂĽhrerEO etc a list of criminal convictions related to BNP/EDL members.

Islam is a full time religion, particularly in it's most extreme forms. Its followers are expected to abide by it's precepts 24/7. Christianity well, the c/e version, only asks we go to church on Sundays and for the res of the week forget about it. Since very few go to church now, its in fact a 'lapsed' religion in this country, except for a few people. Where Christian values may clash with our own secular values, i.e. 'Gay Marriage, and 'Women Bishops' we demand Christianity changes. So to all intents and purposes we an 'athiest' society. My views as previously stated. Is we allow Muslims to live their own life in their own countries, but are free to question it in our own society, perhaps even ban it. Our government pursues the exact opposite of this policy in my opinion...the politics of the madhouse |

just wondered what the kill ratio was for the edl - how many have they chopped to death?? How many have killed their own kin or spirited them away to foreign countries. How many people have they killed with bombs. That list from 2005 or whatever is mainly stuff from demos where as many of the anti edl get arrested for obstruction and violence. Most of the stuff the mma has come out with is bogus scare mongering.
I was up early to here the mosque stabbing report - yet again the police said we are not ruling this out as a hate crime. ~this was said officially whilst sky also said in the same breath that the man was local and prayed in the mosque!!! you couldn't make it up. The cops are paralized with fear that they will be accused of islamaphobia - I tell you we are in trouble - no wonder all these asian gangs got away with harming thousands of young white girls - police minds are intellectually frozen!!! |

"Islam is a full time religion, particularly in it's most extreme forms. Its followers are expected to
abide by it's precepts 24/7." All religion is generally "full-time". Islam in it's intended form is not so much a religion but a political system. I assume this is what you meant though. "Christianity well, the c/e version, only asks we go to church on Sundays and for the res of the week forget about it. Since very few go to church now, its in fact a 'lapsed' religion in this country, except for a few people." Not quite, but religion has a separate identity and domain to that of the state. "Where Christian values may clash with our own secular values, i.e. 'Gay Marriage, and 'Women Bishops' we demand Christianity changes. So to all intents and purposes we an 'athiest' society." A pair of bizarre examples there, why would an atheist society require any form of bishop or marriage? Generally it's a dangerous situation when state oppresses religions, which is why protections were crucial to the US founding fathers. Not only are the americans losing this but soon even the term "founding fathers" will be outlawed. The erosion of alternatives to the philosophy imposed by the state, has left us with the cultural marxism that has so weakened the ability to think or discriminate that the likes of yeahyeahwhatever cannot tell the difference between Mother Theresa and al-Zawahiri. |

Christian values do clash with secular values,, your argument makes no sense at all there If you think Christianity is in any way a full time religion you must be dreaming look at what Jesus preached, and our society around us, they have little to do with each other Islam is a religion, it has a lot more rules than us, facing Mecca at different times of day and a lot of strict rules how to live ones life, but their followers accept that My call to ban Islam in our society was slightly facetious tbh  I was just trying to show the complete illogicality of invading Muslim countries because we don't like the way they run things, and generally anti Islamic media that supports this and yet we are supposed to tolerate Muslims in our own society it is 'schizophrenic' we either tolerate Islam or you don't...everywhere. |

Yeahyeah believes Islam suppress women, in fact all religion does
I argue they don't, they just reflect the values of the time they were founded and who is to say their values were not better than our own values now I don't advocate the suppression of women anywhere, I just think we should be aware of the differences, and in the West we are in danger of departing from reality We are in danger trying to put square pegs into round holes, all in the name of equality. In fact what is happening is women are seeking power because they want to change society to suit women rather than men In fact women are not powerless anyway they have sex and they are very good at manipulating men. I did not advocate suppression of all religion. Our secular values appear to change every 5 minutes, totally confusing to us oldies Religious values seem much more permanent and some people find security in that. In fact you last paragraph agrees with this polybot yeahyeah being a women, will of course hold to her views..it is the battle of the sexes |

ebulGerry - I am a person first and a women second. As I've said before, I don't battle for my gender, I battle for equality. I don't expect this or that because I'm a woman, I expect this or that because I am a person and the rules that apply to one person should apply to all, no matter what their gender.
No doubt it will come as no surprise for you to know that I'm an atheist (although the stats/db geeky anorak in me couldn't resist putting jedi knight on my enrolment form - yesss and now we have a dedicated entry code!). I don't get religion but I can see that by banning it you actually give it power so I'm not going down that route... what I do think needs to happen is that we desperately need to move away from accepting that religion can put itself above the laws of the land (as has recently happened with the same sex marriage act). |

re: In fact what is happening is women are seeking power because

It's so sad that what you see a power is actually just a drive to be equal. You say that we're trying to change society to "suit women" but that is such a warped view of just allowing people to be what they want to be. Just stop and think for a moment what it must be like to be female in a society where your only worth is your appearance. That your intelligence and personality counts for so little against your face and body shape... and you really consider that to be power. |

The Quran written in the the 7th century, clearly states that women sould be educated and treated with kindness and respect. At that time, very few men in Europe were educated let alone women.
Domestic violence against women etc, was widely accepted in this country (even by the police) till very recently (Labours social reforms since the 1970's). As for honour killings, female mutilation etc. That has nothing to do with religion it is cultural. So they are a few hundred years behind. Who was it that had Queen Ann Boleyn beheaded, Queen Carthrine Howard, beheaded for adultury? Their sentences commuted from being burned at the stake (they were commoners).

You can hardly compare the wrong doing of an entire continent of people throughout their entire history with the cowardly BNP going for a few decades, or EDL even more hiding behind womens skirts for the last few years. A far better comparison would be the vile practices of Asians with Europeans troughout history (still unfair to them as they massively outnumber us. But guess who have performed an astronomical peak in human atrocities thoughout history that put every other continental people in te shade? Yes Europeans...and in particular the English! |

You did, you moron, and you managed to name 220 people in total. 632 anti-Muslim hate incidents reported to â€MAMA’ since March 2012 74% of incidents take place on-line That makes 165 NOT on line, in 15 months That's 11 per month Or 1 roughly every 3 days Far Right BNP/EDL supporters linked to over half (54%) of all cases 46% committed by non BNP or EDL members So, 1 every 6 days by the BNP/EDL then ????? Not quite.. These are the figures that you posted 23 arrests, 18 prosecutions (cases pending), 23 arrests, for 632 'hate' crimes And YOU posted it 609 are total rubbish, or they would have been arrested. |

http://libertygb.org.uk/v1/index.php/news-libertygb/5844-the-bbc-sanctions-the-murder-of-tommy-robinson Just when you think the BBC can stoop no lower into the gutter of Islamic appeasement they gird their leftist loins, put their shoulder to the dhimmi wheel and come up with quite astounding levels of grotesque behaviour. The first instance is the BBC Free Speech programme which aired last week. The introduction to this concentrated on the Islamic murder of Fusilier Lee Rigby, yet for reasons best known to themselves the programme centred around the question of "Is Britain more racist and Islamophobic?" In order to discuss this vexing question, shortly after a white Englishman was beheaded in the street by Nigerian Muslims, the BBC arranged a panel consisting of: a black man who considers Britain to be institutionally racist a Muslim woman a mixed-race man a leftist white woman. Keeping things in order was a carefully bearded young metrosexual chap with the correct political orientation necessary to have landed such a job at the BBC in the first place. Oh yes, and Tommy Robinson, who was obviously considered so repugnant by the panellists he was consigned to seat 1, row 12, amongst a hostile audience. Only the BBC could manage to pull off such a remarkable piece of blatantly biased social engineering. A white soldier is killed by Muslims and the BBC convenes a panel of pro-Islam leftists to talk about racism and Islamophobia... Although the program was called Free Speech, the irony of the concerted attacks on Tommy for voicing his free speech was lost on the attackers. Tommy was a racist and that was that, even though they could not actually tell him why he was a racist, despite him asking them to clarify this matter countless times. They simply did not like the fact that he tells the truth about a religion called Islam, so he was therefore a racist no matter how many times he told them Islam was not a race. The second instance and by far the more serious, was Tommy's appearance on Andrew Neil's Sunday Politics show. Mr Neill is a political/ media heavyweight, unlike the foolish children on Free Speech, which makes his behaviour during the interview a matter of great concern, and possibly even concern for the British police, assuming they have a shred of interest of course, which they probably do not. Andrew Neill's opening words were, "Should I call you Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, or Paul Harris or Andrew McMaster?" Tommy said he could call him Stephen Lennon, and explained that he used aliases because of the death threats he and his family receive on a regular basis from the followers of the religion of peace. These are not unsubstantiated death threats: the police have issued Osman Warnings to Tommy, which means that based on information received, the police think the threats are credible. The idea that Tommy's children had been threatened with beheading cut no ice with Mr Neill at all. He responded with, "We did find your birth certificate, you were born Stephen Christopher Yaxley Lennon in Luton 1982." Now, bearing in mind that Tommy had just told him he used aliases because of death threats, was it just sheer stupidity of Mr Neill to broadcast to the Islamic world the full name and year of birth on his birth certificate? Can anyone recollect another example of a BBC guest with credible death threats against them and their children having his full name and date of birth announced to the wider world? No, I don't think it was stupidity. It was deliberately done in order to help enable the murder of Tommy Robinson, who the BBC Leftists hate with a passion. This is more than impartial reporting or bias, it is a genuine desire to help people who wish to kill Tommy, to do just that. If no one had been killed by Islamic murderers then perhaps it could be forgiven as simple naivety, but given the murders of Pim Fortuyn, Theo Van Gogh and the attempted murders of countless other public people who have dared question the religion of peace, it is absolutely wrong and absolutely unforgiveable. I have often thought the BBC crossed the moral line before, particularly so when they stacked a Question Time audience with hostile Muslims after 9/11, but to actively help Muslims track down a man with death threats against him must surely constitute the BBC's most wicked, evil and darkest hour to date. |

No, Tommy Robinson is on an ego trip and isn't worth the 5 minutes of fame the BBC has offered him. The EDL are a band of double figure IQ idiots.Guzzling down the tired old dogma of far right politics. let's not forget how the national front tried to recruit via football hooligan(the real Tommy Robinson was a Luton Town hooligan), and likewise the EDL/casuals united did the same. Anti fascist til the day I die. the opposers? Keep banging on about rivers of blood, 45 years and counting.... |

If it changes it's values to reflect every change in secular values...it would no longer be a religion... in fact to an extent c/e has already done this ..I don't think anyone actually has to believe in God anymore which rather defeats the object .The opposition to 'Gay Marriage' in not primarily religious, for some of us it is an instinct I am sorry women are expected to look good(Do they not go along with this a teensy weensy bit maybe...instinct perhaps?) but that's men for you |

So you're probably anti-Islam and most certainly anti-Obama then? |

You are not going to like this yeahyeah
equality as you put it, is, in my opinion, a clever ruse by women to make men give up their power to women...so I ignore it The primary biological role for women is to have babies and raise children... that is in fact nature. Women's whole mentality is centred on this. If you think this is fact just culture, then you may have a point, but I don't think it is myself I think it is, at least in part, genetic. That is a major sticking point for me. Only time not argument will reveal the answer to this |

ebulgery,
That is a total reinterpretation of Darwinism, that he never applied himslf, however., Only the extreme right wing like the Nazi's would voice such ridiculous opinions. For example homosexuality is as widespread in the animal kingdom as it is in the human, as unfortunately is pedophilia. Before comenting on such delicate issues, I recomend you study for example homosexuality. Etc. You could do worse than read my interpretation of quantum/relative effects on human sexuality. You will find this on the original Guardians 1947 - 1997 thread on the politics forum. It will give you a good lead to go on, and develope your intellect as far as 'Origin of Species' is concerned, and help you take developement much further! |
