Re: Muslims to march in London
 

may be so but let them show it now on placards at this march.placards that tell the rest of the muslim world that they where wrong to turn to violence about these cartoons.
perhaps then my feelings about muslims will change.
but whilst i see news reports showing demo's with placards with the words kill and behead on them,and see people wearing scarves to cover there faces and news reports showing muslims abroad carrying kalashnikov's.
please forgive me if i don't trust them.
i wonder how long it will be before these extremists start using guns over here.
and please don't tell me it won't happen,it may.

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

By the way the march is backed by many Christian organisations (don't know which, but thats what it says on the BBC website) I do find this inetersting because its not now simply a case of Muslims organising this for muslims, but religious groups who feel similar in that they understand and realise the offence caused. I take it some of the people posting on this thread will now get irate at there local churches for backing such a demo.

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

Don't see why they should :confused:

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

And no it doesnt bother me at all, if its peacfull, which is what it looks like, then good luck to them :)

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

I was just wondering if some of the 'muslim bashing' ive seen on this thread for wanting this march to go ahead, would now be extending to the christian groups that are ok with it too.

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

People have been Christian bashing on here for years mate.

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

yeah but at least there isnt a tone of racism when they do huh..........

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

That's the sort of thing that's always said and it really gets my goat.
Disagree with a minority and your then called a racist when you just don't agree.
Lets face facts life in the UK is good its relatively easy in comparison to other countries,The law is relatively easy to live with.
Answer this is it more offensive to upset a minority than say the obese or the irish? I would say no but the fat and the irish are mocked on a daily basis you dont see many of them marching in London whining about stuff.Its about time all minority groups realised just how good they got it in the UK

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

Err, why bring race into the discussion? There *are* White, English muslims. I went out in a group with a with a White Muslim girl last night (Ok, so she was Turkish, but my comment still stands). Are these cartoons not an insult to these Muslims as well?

Regarding the original cartoons, well, I think those Muslims who have taken past in the violent protests (I have no problem with peaceful protest, apart from the inconveniance) have handled it very badly. Had they protested peacefully, the cartoons would have been forgotten with a couple of weeks. Thanks to the actions of a few, those cartoons will be remembered for a long time now, possibly years. I have to admit, I do wonder if those who protested violently (note: I am not inferring they are Muslim) just wanted a fight.

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

Hey Zinglebarb, Im not saying youre a racist because you disagree with the minority be they Irish, Black Chinese Asian, etc etc. What I am saying is that in many of the threads Ive read on tjhis forum, if there is any discussion about anything related to Muslims or Asains (irrespective of religion) theres always many comments post along the lines of If you dont like it you can go back to the middle east...your own country etc etc. Racial comments have been made irrespective of whether 'ur own country is in deed the UK'. Im not generalising all people in that same category, just some of the ones who do make racist statements or make statements with a racist undertone on these threads. I cannot believ that I am the only one who has picked up on this. If we compare an anti christian argument/viewpoint, the same can not be said.

I'd like to think what others think, because I honestly dont think Im the only one.

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

If all religion was scrapped tomorrow the world would be a better place in my opinion!

Religion is said to be the cause of more deaths every year than anything else!

How sad is that! :dozey:

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

Or more accurately, how wrong is that.

Who is it who has 'said' that? Religion has not caused any more deaths than any other other interest/mindset but it's often used as an excuse.

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

I watched the protest on tv, and i have to say that i was impressed with it.
All the plaquards were provided by the organisers, and the ones that did take there own put them away when asked to do so. :tu: :clap:
A lot of the people there were also waving the union flag to show that they are British and proud to be so,
It just proves that almost all muslims are very peacefull people.:)

Re: Muslims to march in London
 

What an utterly ridiculous comment.

They had no right to protest in London disrupting the City regarding the publication of some Cartoon's in Denmark, they also had no choice but to appear peaceful in there protests today after the way they behaved last time, the placquards they held and the hats the children wore were disgusting.

^^^^

This above was as ridiculous as your comment, those protesting today did not even represent 1% of the Muslims in the world, the same as those protesting last time, there is good and bad in all races, religions, and religions, to say this showed that most all muslims are peaceful is a joke, in the same way it's a joke to say what they did before showed them all to be barbaric.
