    Which, by the way, most likely came from him ;). I noticed that they seem to appear only after he has had enough time to rep his cousins enough that he has spread enough to go and send me insults again :cool:.

    When an articles keeps stating "it is believed or it was claimed" without sources, you should hear alarm bells going off in your head. Dumbest thing I've wasted two minutes on in a while. How do you propose to give "them" a taste of their own medicine?

    The Daily Mail holds no credibility in my books. I would put them in the category of tabloid junk news. Just read the article, its terribly written, I don't think any good journalist would put their name on that crap. Not denying that this stuff in the article probably happens, England has a very large uneducated and poor Muslim population. But I wouldn't ever use the Daily News as a source for keeping informed.

    London Evening Standard any better? I recommend you spend some time in East London...

    Defaced: H&M's bikini model posters have been targeted in east London

    'Extremists threatened to kill me over headscarf'

    Police in east London have vowed to tackle Islamist extremists suspected of threatening violence against Asian women for not wearing headscarves, with one victim claiming she received a death threat.

    A 31-year-old woman was told that the Whitechapel pharmacy she works in would be boycotted unless she covered her hair. The woman, who is not a practising Muslim, says her life was threatened when she went to the media with her story.

    Islamist fanatics are also thought to be responsible for plastering stickers reading: "Gay-free zone. Verily Allah is severe in punishment" in Tower Hamlets, for defacing high street fashion chain H&M's posters of bikini-clad models, and for daubing Bollywood film posters with black paint.

    Paul Rickett of the Met said: "A small minority of people do not wish to respect the lifestyle choices of others. I would like to reassure people that we are investigating. Anyone found committing such criminal acts will face criminal proceedings."

    Radical Muslim preacher Anjem Choudary said he was aware of individuals who would speak up if they saw a Muslim woman without a headscarf, but insisted they were only giving advice about their views of Islam. He said the death threat allegation was "ridiculous". Three men have been charged with religiously aggravated criminal damage in connection with vandalism.

    Ghaffar Hussain, of the Quilliam Foundation anti-extremism think tank, said the intimidation was the work of "Talibanesque thugs" and added: "This minority think they have the right to impose their fringe interpretation of Islam on others."

    Also, have a look at the comments to that article...if you think I am a bigot.

    So you admit that there are multiple insults in your rep. I guess we don't need any more evidence to prove how much you are "loved" on this site.

    I have more than 1,000 rep points. About 5 or 6 of those are from insults - as your 5 or 6 insults are only worth 1 point each. Everyone can form their own opinion about you having the nerve to talk like that after Clutch has already outed you as the person who does this.

    The comments (I don't agree with all of them) show what ordinary citizens think about the medieval terror your fellow Islamists try to impose on them (while at the same time living on welfare benefits).

    Ego Much?

    If you are so confident it is me, put a tip jar bet on it. $500 dollars

    That's what I thought Mr. Angry.

    The post to which I referred made mention of US citizens being deceived by sources of info about Muslims. This was directly linked to ATW, so I pointed out that ATW was not a US citizen... so from that standpoint it matters.

    I think ATW's experience as a European is scoffed at and that is a mistake. They are years or decades ahead of us in dealing with this 'problem."

    So continue making fun of him if that makes you feel better, but you might want to try to understand why his concern is greater than yours and it might have NOTHING to do with a character flaw.

    IMO, in this day and age of the internet, deceptive sources of info about Muslims is equally accessible to anyone as long as his country does not ban such sites

    Showtang made a post on the page before yours explaining how people in the US are manipulated to fear Islam like ATW. The fact that ATW isn't in the US would be relevant WRT that post.
