Gay Attacks In Netherlands...

Is this an appropriate response:

Plenty of images on Twitter.

Wholly appropriate. If I'd been in Arnhem, Eindhoven or wherever, I'd have joined in.

[emmie]

i would say so, in a country that is about as liberal as it can get, i applaud anyone who stands up for these guys.

[emmie]

Interested to know whether the attackers were from the Netherlands, only says that there were 5 of them. The
poor guy lost teeth after being hit with a bolt cutter,
what possesses people to hate so much to do this.

[ummmm]

I think it's an appropriate response. The men standing hand in hand...

The BBC for some reason doesnt want to print this quote:

"And then suddenly there was a group of six to eight Moroccan youths. Before I knew it I was on the ground fighting with three men on top of me."

I wonder why.

Despicable act but then Europe has let in millions who dont agree with our Lifestyle and freedoms and wish to destroy it.

Yes, I would have joined in too if I'd been there. Well done !

[Lie-in King]

Yes, completely appropriate & I too would have joined hands.

[Mamyalynne]

Yes, an appropriate response - joining hands is so simple yet equally symbolic and powerful.

I would have been there if I could.

I thought that this was a very unusual thing to happen in Holland but ymb's post @ 13.00 makes everything clear.

[emmie]

another hate crime in a long line of them i expect. Get used to this because i can see it happening here.

[Mamyalynne]

The moment we 'Get used to it' and not respond in this peaceable way we have lost hope.


So don't get used to it.

[emmie]

every time we use peace another so and so comes along with their skewed ideology and disrupts life for everyone.
I firmly believe that there will be more homophobic attacks, if they haven't happened already in Britain. Some people can't leave their faith at the door and venture out into the sunlight. They have to brainwash individuals into committing atrocious attacks and the more we roll over the more they do it.
Terrorists should all get life in prison, don't care whether they kill one or a hundred, they don't deserve to be on this planet. We have no death penalty so life should mean that.
