The thread that I posted re. the video that muslims found offensive enough to justify murderous rampages around the world seems to been removed. Perhaps the Ed. would do me the courtesy of explaining why. As far as I know the UK is not a muslim state and sharia law does not govern our lives. I know it is a good idea to be polite to a madman when he is waving a sword at you, but it hasnt quite come to that yet has it?
If I can't have a debate about a current matter of serious concern, can I at least have a trouble maker badge.

Here I am jumping up and downI also read the Express the Telegraph and the Times.
Who knows....Perhaps AB has a Muslim Moderator who 'pulled' the Thread.

Ron.
em10 - just do a search on DM and Daily Mail in the above window and see how many posts you get.
why don't you email Ed and ask him, jomifl, or post in Ed's Blog where there is more chance he will see it.

Ron I don't think a mod (if there is one) would get away with that if Ed didn't agree, Ed has the final say I bellieve on what gets pulled. Mods are supposed to be impartial, and as jomifl says, this is a discussion thread.
There was an arson attack on the home of a publisher who planned to issue a book, 'The Jewel of Medina,' which featured the Prophet and his child bride.
More serious by far was the murderous attack on Theo Van Gogh in Holland.
These are potentially dangerous times for proponents of free speech.
Perhaps the residents of AB Towers have come to the conclusion that discretion is the better part of valour?
^ That arson attack was in London.
boxtops...The Ed is Not on duty 24hrs per day and I feel sure that threads can be pulled during his absence from the site.

Perhaps comments are now required from a Mod.

Ron
Just to make things clear, I do not read the Daily Mail and I am a devout atheist but the Christian religion was drummed into me as a child and I still like to argue about it and other religions. I think the drumming in was probably one of the reasons atheism is so attractive to me. Come to think of it some people say I will argue about anything.
//I know it is a good idea to be polite to a madman when he is waving a sword at you, but it hasnt quite come to that yet has it? //

Is the removal of your video proof that this is closer than we thought?
It certainly looked as though this uprising is spreading to other parts of the world now, perhaps discretion is the better part of valour as far as those fanatics are concerned. On the other hand why should we put up with this behaviour here?
I second that askyourgran. You are quite right - why indeed should we have to put up with it.
As a follow-up to my earlier postings, the following I think is relevant:-

Who knows? Perhaps it’s deemed a judicial move. ;o)
AYG we are putting up with this behaviour here. What happened to the protesters in London, those burning the American flag outside the American embassy, some just have their eyes closed and ears shut
Morning,

I believe the weekend editor chopped it. It's fairly obvious how displaying the video here could effect us negatively.

Naturally I have no problem with the discussion of it, but I won't be reinstating it the thread.

This thread will be removed later on today.
ok before this is cut, many of the links to Daily mail are put their by people who hate the paper, as a way of indicating how despicable it is.
AOG does link to it sometimes, but he also provides links to same stories in other papers
why do you need to remove this thread as well? seeing as it has no video, only discussion..
Couldn't s/he have just removed the video?
I thought that too ummmm.
Mr 'Smug' here,

Tried to warn you all last night that AB ain't democratic. If the Ed don't like it, out comes the hook - Seemples!

How many times must I tell you???
