Trafalgar Square Vigil

[emmie]

for those who lost their lives and those injured. How many more will e
have to suffer i wonder.

[ummmm]

Just saying, AOG, they aren't all against us.

I work with a Muslim couple and they love England and her people.

Yes from this picture it proves that they can gather in protest when the need arises, the question that must be asked is why are they not doing so over terrorist attacks like the one we have just witnessed?

Anyone with the answer please?

And that is lovely ummmm, but the problem is they love Islam more.

If the time came when they were forced to make a choice between Britain and it's people or their religion, I am afraid they would choose the latter.

aogh
you could be right, and the only way is time will tell.

Yes, me –

AOG - //The scenes in Trafalgar Square were witness to that, why weren't the 'peaceful' Muslims and their Imams out in force, joining those others in togetherness and solidarity? //

If you were a Muslim - easily identified of course, as you know by anyone glancing in your direction - and given the way huge swathes of people regard all Muslims as murdering terrorists - would you step into a crowd holding a vigil like this?

I wouldn't!

Muslims unless dressed accordingly don't stand out, the men especially wear western style dress, it's the women wearing the niqab, burkha who stand out.

[Islay]

The Muslims were at the vigil showing their grief

[ummmm]

No, AOG, not all would chose their faith above their host country.

[anneasquith]

Islay. That post will be of no interest to our ultra right wing abers.:-(

[emmie]

going on the posts i don't think there are ultra right wing posters on this site. concerned, worried, frightened for our future certainly.

[Islay]

Really emmie you may want to re read you thread then!

[Samjenko]

I wouldn't say I'm ultra right wing. However 'The Muslims were at the vigil showing their grief
9th picture down ' wasn't quite true was it?
It was a random muslim woman who might have been pictured anywhere by her comrades at Albeeb.
Hardly compares with the 10,000 who descended on London to support the Charlie Hebdo murderers.

[Samjenko]

^And while we're at it, had a petition signed by 100,000 fellow haters.

[anneasquith]

I have no wish to derail you're thread Emmie, but I am shocked and saddened to read the amount of racist posts on AB especially in the last few days, and ( no action taken ) so I'll remove myself from this thread .

[pastafreak]

Looking at the photos,there are many who could quite possibly be Muslim. We do not need to only look for the stereotypes.

I'm sure it's possible to contact Getty Images to clarify when and where particular images where taken...go for it samjenko.

[emmie]

anne
don't do that, your opinion like others is valued.

[pastafreak]

I agree with Anne...there's a lot of hate on here. Very worrying...and may have the potential to be equal to the hate they ascribe to others.

[Samjenko]

Some people are made to look fools when incidents like this happen.
Instead of apologising for being wrong all the time or even keeping quiet for once, they just lash out at the people who've been proved right,,,,,again.

[anotheoldgit]

Everyone who disagrees with
anneasquith and Islay apparently
are deemed ultra-right-wing.

How many more times, Islam is not a race.
And I feel certain that if any post was truly deemed Racist and not just an opposite view to your own, then they would be swiftly removed by the team of moderators.
