Love the idea of you reading articles trying to find something to get offended by.



The fact that 2 people were scarred for life in (what seems) a racially motivated attack - nothing. The fact that their faith is mentioned when reporting it - OH MY GOD!!! WHEN WILL IT END!!!

How?
Report PorcupineorPineapple • July 1, 2017 8:58 PM BST
It's relevant because it appears they were targeted purely because of their faith. Not sure why it's stirring. Would have to be incredibly thin skinned to get anywhere within the galaxy of mildly annoyed that their faith was mentioned.

Remember this happening a few months ago and someone pointing out that it's currently not illegal to carry round acid so if you get caught holding the police can't do anything. Surely it'd be one of the most straight forward laws to pass. Do it now for god's sake.

I don't think so. Which is why they're not.


.... erm... 9/11, 7/7, Paris, Iraq, Syria, the Yazidis, the shop-keeper in Glasgow, the priest in Rouen, Manchester, Brussels, the Coptic Christians in Egypt, Bonbay, Nice, Lockerbie, atrocities in the Philippines, Bali, Al-Shabab, Kenya (recite the Q'uran or die.... could go on ad-infinitum and apologies if I didn't mention them specifically here as they are almost innumerable.

The fact that many of the victims may have been atheist or agnostic or of any other religion is irrelevant. As far as the attackers were concerned they did not care so long as their victims were following a different belief system from their own from their own twisted sh1te indoctrination.

Hope that clarifies.

Cover up!!!


You get massively upset at a local newspaper mentioning a couple of muslim people getting burned by acid, try to divert it to which region etc and apparently it's me covering up?



Old - is it a competition? Do we have to reference every racially motivated attack as a game of football so we can see which side is winning? "Yes, their lives may have been ruined, they may have been wholly innocent people with no involvement in any naughtiness but it doesn't matter because some other muslim did something bad so we're allowed this one."

Clouseau - to be fair with your (somewhat inaccurate) list you do know that if someone was any way inclined they could point out the number of innocent people killed in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria, killed indiscriminately based purely on the fact that they're local Muslims dwarfs whatever number you could come up with.

This one?
A taxi driver from Bradford has been jailed for a minimum of 27 years for the “barbaric, premeditated” murder of a shopkeeper in Glasgow.

Tanveer Ahmed, from Toller, had admitted to repeatedly stabbing Asad Shah to death outside his shop in the Shawlands area of the city in March this year in a sectarian attack motivated by hatred of Shah’s religious views.


Glasgow murder of Asad Shah spurred by sectarianism in Pakistan
Read more
Ahmed, 32, a Sunni Muslim, confessed to confronting and then attacking Shah because the newsagent was an open adherent of the Ahmadi branch of Islam, which believes the prophet Muhammad was not the final Muslim prophet.

As he was led from the dock on Tuesday, Ahmed raised a clenched fist and shouted in Arabic: “Praise for the Prophet Muhammad, there is only one Prophet.” His cry was repeated by some supporters in the public gallery.


That fits into the "The fact that many of the victims may have been atheist or agnostic or of any other religion is irrelevant. As far as the attackers were concerned they did not care so long as their victims were following a different belief system from their own from their own twisted sh1te indoctrination." bit.

Moysey, how would you rank victims of acid attacks in order of importance?

For instance, rank in order of how much sympathy you'd have for a victim based on where it took place - a) Newham b) Chelsea c) Shepherds Bush d) Forest Green



I can follow it up and you can say how sympathetic you'd feel for a victim according to their religion or skin colour if you like.


Seeing as you've gone to the trouble of researching this kind of data I'm sure you're answers will be illuminating.

Here's one horrific example:

Germany: A court heard how a 27-year-old Muslim intruder named Abubaker broke into the Heilbronn home of a 70-year-old Christian woman described as a "devout Catholic" and "regular churchgoer." He tied her up, abused her, placed a cross in her hands, and strangled her to death. Then he wrote "a series of Arabic and religious messages around the house" — including "It's payback time" in English — before stealing some items and fleeing the scene. The defendant — described as a "strict Muslim" — is of Pakistani descent and grew up in Saudi Arabia.
