Home Secretary Reid?

Question

I am against Blair's policy and have always have been. In fact I have never voted for Blair since I am a socialist. (Old Labour)
But I defend the Home Secretary's right to speak on whatever subject he choses without veiled threats being made against him.
If I threatened someone I would be charged with disorder at least?
He was also asked why pick out Muslims?
Well I guess it must be because they like to being shown to everyone so that we know what they are doing in the name of their religion.
Apart from the person caught lighting his fuse on a plane, has there ever been anyone else other than Muslim?
When a witness reports a white man they don't spend an equal effort looking for all the colours under the sun.
Have we got to the point where the police can't question one group without questioning an equal number in all other groups?
The country's going mad.

And before anyone thinks I am a racist let me say that having researched religion I believe their religion to be authentic?
So I am not against Muslims but I am against those that use them for cover.

How about you?

Answer 1

I think John Reid was perfectly justified in asking Muslim parents to watch their children closely, just as parents in other communities might be asked to watch their children for evidence of drug or substance abuse.
I am totally sick of the constant outcries of the so called insults and supposed offence that minor jokes, comments, Christian symbols even cartoons are said to cause to the Muslim people.
We have had to put up with hate filled propaganda being spouted openly - not to mention threats to kill us at every slight no matter how minor. This country was the most tolerant in the world, but this is changing now, when migrants, whom we once welcomed, feel they have a right to change our customs and specifically our freedom of speech. Also, to demand their own laws, to demand that their children should be excused from normal school uniform - in fact demand that they should continue to live exactly as they would have done at home -only considerably more comfortably - cushioned as they are by our generous benefit system and health service. These extreme groups do nothing to attempt to integrate - and, I consider the wearing of burkhas an insult to British people- if these women are keen enough to live here they should attempt to fit in. They apparently expect to have special treatment in hospitals and when taking a driving test, even to the extent of having an interpretor with them - how can they be shown to know the Highway Code if they don't/can't answer questions themselves? If they cannot read/understand English how can they understand our road signs? I am sick of the mealy mouthed administration continually appeasing these people - and giving in to these outrageous demands..

Answer 2

well ,i agree with your sentiments entirely!

When you break the law in this country , you should have "your collar felt". NO matter who you are!!!!

We live in a multi-cultural society and people do have rights . nobody can dispute that.

However to turn a blind eye, to incitement to racial violence ; Is against our law .

This is a criminal matter and should be dealt with ., promptly .

From where- ever, it comes;

And this includes, the sort of veiled threats, directed at the Home secretary /the Pope and all the other people they find so easy to insult .

I wonder how far we would be get,
if we started jumping up and down , shouting slogans and burning flags and effigies, in , Pakistan or Turkey , for instance .?

LOL! our feet would not touch the ground !!!

Well this is how i see it --------
And i am not racially prejudiced either , I have many good friends who are Muslim, and I have also read some of the Koran

. It is wrong to blame the religion itself , for the fanatics that distort its Holy Words , Terrorists hiding behind them , to their own wicked ends .

We will only wear so much, in our so democratic country.
The law is there to protect us all from such fanatics .

after being fined and spending a salutary time in our prisons

, let them beware ,
behave, or go back from whence they came.

Answer 3

I think we have to be careful not to fall into the trap of believing that most or all Muslims are terrorists or terrorst sympathisers.

But we - and reasonable Muslims - have to acknowledge that the most dangerous terrorists in the world at the moment are mainly radical Muslims.

Given that fact, I think it's simply reasonable to concentrate our security efforts mainly on monitoring the activities of Muslims, especially those with known connections to radical clerics or who have been to Pakistan.

That's uncomfortable and inconvenient for the many peace-loving Muslims, but perhaps they should put more of the blame at the door of the suicide bombers and less at the door of a society trying to defend itself.

However, I don't blame them for being upset by governments who use the acts of Al Qaeda as an excuse for invading a country where that group had no significant operation (but which had a nice line in oil wells).

Answer 4

well we just love our little puppet over in the USA

Answer 5

kill them all before they kill you
