Keighley war veteran attacked and robbed of medals...

I wonder why it's not on the BBC television news pages.

Forgot link.  Here it is.

http://www.keighleynews.co.uk/news/11592340.War_veteran_set_on_by_youths_in_Lund_Park_on_his_way_to_Remembrance_Service_in_Keighley/

the comments below the story are interesting regarding the police in their area

A guy in the pub sold his grand fathers medals from WW1 to get money for a bet on the football.

Glad to say that I still have my Grand Father`s medals from the same conflict. Never recovered from Mustard Gas attack at the Somme and sadly died in Erskine Military Hospital.

From the comments section by local residents.

It's a disgrace, how long will we have to put up with all our parks being no go areas. There not even safe in daylight hours anymore!

Hope the police pull there finger out soon!! These tale of terror are making front page nearly every day now. Amazed that the Keighley News has not picked up on the Story that was on face book on Friday night regarding the lady walking through !! LUND PARK !! with her two Young children and her baby in its pram. She had to ask a group of Asians to stop shining Laser pens at them, she received the usual verbal from these racist idiots and the baby sustained an eye injury after one of them through an object that hit the baby.
 

It's a shame this had to go viral on face book for the police to do something about it..

I want to ask when are the red top papers and the pc brigade going to call this filth what they are? Muslim. Not Asian. Sikhs Chinese Korean Nepalese most Indians etc are not doing this and by saying is Asian is putting them at risk from vigilantism.

well said mark, they are the dregs of the indian sub continent, none of afore mentioned can stand them.


Maybe if we all sneak into the mosque by Asda and steal all their shoes, maybe, just maybe the police will get their fingers out?
Seriously though, if it was an elderly Asian man who was attacked, then just watch the commotion that would ensue.

just like the grooming and drug dealing they supress it, it's been going on for years.


just one muslim has posted
There is nothing Muslim or Islamic about these scums behaviour. I'm a Muslim, I paid my respects at the memorial on Sunday and fully appreciate the sacrifices of the British soldiers and those of Muslim Indians and Pakistanis that fought and died in the two world wars. My family wear the poppies with pride each year. Why should I and my faith be held responsible for these idiots??!!

slightly off topic, but the mother of the Derby suicide bomber knew her son had been radicalised 5 years ago, according to a family member. The local community leaders have today blamed Derbyshire police, and the government, for allowing him to slip under the radar.

The mother and local community leaders should sue the government and the Derbyshire police for their institutional, "not protecting someone, for not realising someone had been radicalised, by not a community leader".
Im sure Cherie Blair would take the case.

That is a rubbish claim...how do you know he was radicalised to start with?
Before are responsible for their ow beliefs...nobody else

This was a despicable act, I do not believe normal Muslims would do this
I hope they catch the culprit

People are responsible for their own beliefs...nobody else

It is possible that these attacks on vets have been coordinated yes

I think the Michael Adebolajo attack was supposed to be a coordinated campaign
but public reaction was so strong they gave up on that one

They now go for physical attacks on old men and women
but if I was them, I would give up on that one as well, this will win these people no sympathy

I think the Michael Adebolajo attack was supposed to be a coordinated campaign
but public reaction was so strong they gave up on that one

We appear to have a different understanding of the word 'co-ordinated'.

I thought it meant 'at the same time', so there would have been no time gap there for the public to react.

Apologises taxi

I think it was meant to be the start of a planned campaign

If they were worried about public outcry why didn't they stop after

the twin towers?

the London tube and bus bombings?

Same old. Never ever gets done, I wonder where Lawerence's mother is?

A bit unnecessary imo sj.

Obviously the scum responsible for this and other attacks deserve a lentghy stay at HM's pleasure.

will they be charger with a racially aggravated attack?
or just robbery

Lawrence's mother sees racism as one way.

As do the PC Establishment.

Thanks goes to UTC for bringing this to case our attention.

Are ukip standing in keighley ?, a shoe in if there's enough whites in the area

I think that ,unless the Liars who run the country ,start to deal with immigration and the one sided view of the PC brigade,
Then there will be a time when the ordinary quiet men/women on the streets will say, enough is enough..
This country is like a pressure cooker waiting to explode, and the only way to curb it, is by somebody in power making changes that have not been seen since the Second World War, ...although the gullible pc brigade and the champagne socialists will have us believe that we're all being racists and little Englanders

funnily enough 7/7 never angered us so much
also those two attacks were seen by Muslims as justifying a cause

totally agree dambuster with your thoughts, something is going to happen sometime and I can see there being mass riots.

Some of the things we are doing

I also wonder whether was are creating an unsustainable society

I think our society is becoming ever more vindictive and vicious

We have lost common sense, reasonableness...biggest change from the 60/70s

Didnt you have mods and rockers going mental on brighton beach and football hooligans chucking bricks through old ladies windows(in Luton) in the 60s 70s and 80s.  And race riots and didnt people always say that the country is going to the dogs.  Captain mainwaring was saying as much the other day.

In fact Notting Hill riots wasnt that in the fifties, started by teddy boys going out beating up pakistanis.

I liked it

at least they expressed themselves naturally

we are not now, it is building up underneath

because we repress everything...I think we are a pressure cooker

Looking at the daily anti Muslim comments on here
were the Teddy Boys wrong????????????????????????

Yeah, I am not sure you are right, but each to their own.  What about all the cover ups of nonces in care homes, posh schools, scout groups and anywhere within a ten mile radius of Jimmy Saville.  All seemingly brushed under the carpet too.

All this stuff over immigration
I think the Teddy Boys approved of immigration
perhaps we should have listened

Is there a cover up?
The after timing over Jimmy Saville is appalling, nobody knew
in fact we still don't for sure?

did not approve of immigration

Children institutions have a tendency to attract paedophiles I am afraid, I do not think they have covered it up
This is one area I believe it..I think we got an RAF officer today

Greedy woman after money I do sometimes have my doubts I admit

I will probably believe the charges against GG, started today...on the grounds he has been done since in Vietnam
and for the porn downloading ok, there was masses of it

nothing about this keighley story.... on bbc or itv local news

Another Wat Tyler is needed....

I wonder how many heads that will fly above..

Wat Tyler, the Peasants Revolt 1381

He led an uprising from the South East in protest at a Poll tax(we needed him a few years ago)

After reaching London at the head of a very large mob, a young Henry II, just 14, bravely rode out to meet him, promised Wat Tyler he would rescind the tax.

There was an incident, Wat Tyler was killed, his supporters dispersed, and the concessions were cancelled.

is that the one???????

Nah, that's him of course but not what i was hinting at..

Well it won't be the rich that revolt, that's for sure.

You said they stopped their planned campaign after the outcry of the murder of Lee Rigby in Woolwich.

Why didn't they stop after the outcry of 9/11 and 7/7 is what I asked you.

You haven't answered.

Why should they??????

We attacked Middle Eastern countries, why should they stop anything, we are the cause of this ourselves?

Lee Rigby we see as an ordinary person, he is not responsible for what our govenrments do

I think there is a difference

Do you actually read and understand what you type?

You said 'The (co-ordinated) planned campaign stopped because of the public outcry over Lee Rigby's murder.'

I asked you why they didn't stop after 9/11 and 7/7, as there was a HUGE public outcry over that.

And then you posted 'Why should they?'

I'm still trying to work out why 'coordinated' should be taken to mean 'at the same time'. I think the original use of the word was pretty accurate. The idea might have been wrong because, in my opinion, that was an isolated event. But, of course, that is just my opinion.
Also, the poster said that he 'thought that' it could have been an aborted campaign...he didn't say it as a statement of fact. CMAT is misquoting there.

While we're here, I feel that I must point out that, unless the other poster was actually in charge of these terrorist activities, he would be highly unlikely to know WHY they didn't stop their attacks after 9/11 or 7/7. I believe he is innocent and, therefore, unable to answer such a leading question. I would suggest that 'no comment' would be appropriate.

ok naydam
no comment

It's a bit like that channel 4 programme, '24 hours in police custody' or summat. That's what THEY all say. Tell 'em nowt!

Yet you seem to know WHY they stopped after the murder of Lee Rigby.

Henry II would have been well over 200 in 1381     
Richard II perhaps ?

Had a look at their local paper after reading this monstrous racist crime(I presume it is the lead story on the News channels).

The place sounds like a war zone , I could not see one story that was not about some terrible crime.

I would regard the attacking of a decorated veteran as a treasonable crime ....no doubt deprivation , lack of opportunites , cultural sensitivity to blame.

..deprived neighbourhood, vulnerable, disadvantaged etc.

The retired soldier should be embarrassed he's created such a fuss.

Send him on a diversity course forthwith!

Mikael d'H. Why WHO stopped? And WHAT did they stop? Gizza clue for crying out loud!

erm yes...apologies
I was thinking Richard II, amazing I often type something and I end up with different words
than I was intending??????

Not one of our better Kings, after a good start seemed to go insane, ending up being starved to death in a castle somewhere

Henry 'Bolingbroke' seized power and declared himself Henry IV

Apologies naydam, I had your post mixed up ebulGery's!

You don't think we've noticed? Mikael

I have.

No prob. M d'H. At least it makes sense now. 

A 15yr old boy and another 16, both from Keighley, have been arrested in connection with the incident and have been released on bail, West Yorkshire Police said yesterday.

birch imo

Animal Aid would get involved and make it rubber

Bradford paper blames bnp for having an opinion

Naturally.
