Street attacks against Muslims sky rocket in UK

I wanted to get a better break down of these numbers to try and separate violence from non-violence but there doesn't seem to be a source in the article for these numbers. Just "Tell Mama says"...

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/jul/20/record-number-anti-muslim-attacks-reported-uk-2017

I think a bit of a better article.

I think the main difference is face to face vs online. Steet level=offline.

The Tell Mama report focused on the trend toward physical incidents, saying: “There has been a marked shift towards more serious offline incidents such as physical attacks, threatening behaviour and abuse more generally.”


In 2017, vandalism replaced threatening behaviour as the third most common category of anti-Muslim hate incident; there was a 56% increase in anti-Muslim vandalism when compared with 2016.

Couldn't find more info about the breakdown of violent vs non violent.

I didn't say it made anything better, you're reading a whooooole book outta one sentence.


Oh yeah, you're pretty transparent. Say something hateful and racist, then backtrack and 'Oh don't twist my words!!' and try to imply what say you said was vague and people are taking their own meanings from it.

So obvious.

, but the way this thread is framed. By invoking Trump who has f*ck all to do with this, it's doing disservice to such a serious issue only to set up another political shit-flinging contest.

The way this thread was framed ??

What a load of BS , the thread had a purpose to talk about the crimes being committed against people who are innocent, But you ignore the bulk of the OP and go in for the Trump part to attempt to dismantle what ever argument you saw fit . Why start talking about acid attacks and honour crimes if you main agenda is not to deflect the attention away from innocent people bring hurt for no other reason than their faith. Dont bother being this disingenuous when its clear what your plan is

. There's a big difference!

Big difference between Muslims and Islam yet your criticising the actions of minority of Muslims in a thread about innocent Muslims being attacked . Ok

The conclusion of the OP is literally that evil Nazi Tronald Drumpf and Brexit were responsible for this.

Maybe me and you read threads differently , when a news source is posted i concentrate on the article at hand and the comments of the OP flow into the discussion as if he or she was just another poster. I dont take them as a reflection as to where the conversation should go.

The "bulk" of the OP? Please, there's not a whole lot to begin with, except "OMG TRUMP".

Hence why, if you would have read correctly, I didn't start by talking about acid attacks and honor crimes, but by condemning these attacks. But that still doesn't change the fact that Islamic faith is for the most part incompatible with enlightenment and modern democracies.

Big difference between Muslims and Islam yet your criticising the actions of minority of Muslims...

What the...? I was merely explaining why the conflicts are on the rise and why it's a much more complex problem than mere Islamophobia, which is what OP was alluding to in the first place. If you have people practicing a faith that is basically incompatible with modern democratic values, said faith needs to be moderated in order to allow integration or civil conflicts and unrest are bound to happen.

That certainly does not excuse attacks on innocent Muslims, but if we want to see these sorts of crimes going down, these problems must be finally discussed. I don't give a rat's behind about Trump, but merely going "HURR DURR DRUMPF & RACISM" ain't cutting it!

The majority of Muslims in the UK want homosexuality to be illegal. So presumably if you are Gay they want you in prison, if you are lucky.

A near majority of Muslims in the UK want Sharia instead of British common law. Yay let's have a public gathering in Trafalgar Square and watch a lynching take place. Very progressive!

The "But not all Muslims" rebuttal isn't good enough. Because clearly as the polls show, most of them are wankers and don't belong in the West. Plus the evidence shows that they are getting more Fundamentalist, not less, which you would hope to be the case if they live in the West. "Not all Muslims" is about as useful as "Not all Germans" would be in 1930's Europe.

These attacks on Muslims are a secondary symptom of a primary cause. The whole thing is a mess with practically zero chance of working out in the long run. My bet is that eventually it will come down to one or the other, because a happy middle ground isn't realistic. Which is a damn shame for both the native people's of Europe, and the truly secular Muslims who do want to fit in here.

At the moment most Western countries have only around 10% Muslim population at the most. Look at all the problems there already are when you force very different people together. Now fast forward 50 or so years to when then demographics are more equal because of birth rates and immigration. Welcome to Lebanon 2.0, thankfully I will be dead by then.

So after decades of terror attacks, assaults, rapes, murders, acid attacks, child rape grooming gangs, constant shows of force on the streets and many other heinous crimes that keep escalting year after year, you're surprised, OP, that people are getting sick of it and refuse to just sit back and take it because their government refuses to do anything about it since they're pretty much owned by Saudi Arabia and other gulf nations?

Many muslims see themselves as above the law, that Western laws don't apply to them, they only follow Allah's laws like these muslims in Norway. European governments submit to them because they don't want an uprising, they are often given light sentences or no sentence at all. Just the other day 3 Somalian migrants in Sweden got eight months for gang raping a 13-year old girl. Here's what one member of the Rotherham child rape gang said:
“Muslim girls are good and pure because they dress modestly, covering down to their ankles and wrists, and covering their crotch area. They stay virgins until marriage. They are our girls. White girls and non-Muslim girls are bad because you dress like slags. You show the curves of your bodies (showing the gap between your thighs means you’re asking for it) and therefore you’re immoral. White girls sleep with hundreds of men. You are the other girls. You are worthless and you deserve to be gang-raped.”

I don't condone violence but I can understand how some people living through this hell on a daily basis just can't take it anymore.

As I've already explained, I'm taking issue with the way how this topic is framed, because it does not allow for a healthy discussion of the problem but only leads to more tribalistic political shit flinging.

There we have it .. you just wanted to shit on Muslims and the Islamic faith.

Are you implying that I'm factually wrong? What's next, telling me that Islam isn't a dogmatic theocracy that has absolutely no notion of a separation between church and state hence why it's basically incompatible with pluralistic democracies? You know how long it took for Europeans to free their societies from the shackles of christian tyranny? I sh*t on everything that is incompatible with modern democracy, enlightenment values, individual rights and freedom of self-determination.

Why would you even make that comment in this type of thread just goes to show the i was right about you all along.

Good job cherry picking my reply. Unfortunately, that's not what I'm doing. Your selective reading skills want to desperately shove me into a drawer, because your arguments hold no ground otherwise.

I'm done with you

Good, then I can finally get back to discussing the topic at hand.

Cold hard facts .. Hmm because you got the acid attack one completely wrong , You have done nothing that can even be considered an explanation. The only explanation for attacking innocent men , women and children is that people are xenophobic and Islamophobic ass wipes. There is zero justification for attacking an innocent person regardless of the political environment. But feel free to explain your notions of Islams incompatibility with the west as a good reason to attack people.

They were trying to empower the people to remove Assad not cause a civil war.

Except every time they plan to "empower the people" they support Saudi-backed terrorists who come in and try to regress the countries 500 years.

And regardless of intentions, they still contributed to causing the war. If wishes were fishes doesn't cut it when you fuck with a country of people.

No faith is compatible with "enlightenment and modern democracies". Look at Christian Africa and South/Central America, as well as the insane Evangelicals you get in the US. The extremist Jews in Isreal and the settlements, the Buddhists in Myanmar, the hindu extremists in India etc.....

Sure, go and tell that these women (warning graphical content)! Completely wrong? I don't think so, if you take a less slanted article.

This is where London bucks the trend. Globally, acid attacks are still mostly carried out by men against women close to them. They are particularly common in South Asia, where male attackers use the weapon to disfigure women as a form of punishment or control.

Yes, London has a problem with violent youth gangs using acid, that still doesn't change the fact that acid attacks on women are not uncommon in Islam. Besides, I wasn't only talking about acid attacks. Fact is, those kinds of honor crimes were largely absent in Europe a few decades ago! Who is turning a blind eye to these attacks now? Certainly not me!

But feel free to explain your notions of Islams incompatibility with the west as a good reason to attack people.

I think you're confusing "excuse" with "explanation". But hey, you go ahead screeching about Islamophobia, because ignoring these problems certainly has made things better... with the rightist populists now on the rise because you people have your heads stuck so deep into the sand.

You really want to contest the Metropolitan Police with their own stats ..


Statistics released by London’s Metropolitan Police to the BBC provide a breakdown of every recorded acid attack over a 15-year period by age, gender, ethnicity, borough, hate crime and outcome. It’s the fullest picture yet of the capital’s suspects and victims.
The findings include:
  • The suspect was male 74% of the time and victim was male 67% of the time
  • Just 6% of suspects were Asian
  • Only one so-called ‘honour’ attack was recorded in 15 years
  • Four out of five violent offences never reached trial
The figures appear to contradict a belief that a relative majority of acid attacks involve the South Asian diaspora.
“Definitely not,” said Detective Superintendent Mike West, the Metropolitan police lead on acid attacks, who has reviewed the figures. “That does not ring true. It’s very mixed from various religions, backgrounds, different victims, different offenders.”

The UK has one of the highest recorded rates of violent acid attacks in the world.

In the UK it is not a south asian problem its done by people of all races , we are talking about the UK not globally speaking so nice try trying to move the goalpost on that one , a failed attempt.

You are a fine example of someone who cant not differentiate when someone is acting in the name of Islam or just being an evil cunt. If anything you alt-righter's keep banging the same drum trying to scare monger.

But hey again this is a thread about how innocent people are being targeted but you want to make into your own little pissing hole to shame Islam.

sad

Nice, more baseless assumptions, I'm not an alt-righter. I'd link to my political compass, but I can't be arsed defending myself against these shitty accusations anymore. Think of me what you will, I don't care. You're so far entrenched in your little political bubble, that everything that doesn't agree with you must be alt-right. Which only exemplifies the problem I took with this topic in the first place.

But hey again this is a thread about how innocent people are being targeted...

That's rich coming from the guy advocating physical violence against others for using certain words.

...your own little pissing hole to shame Islam.

I'm sure poor little Islam will be fine with me criticizing the hateful, illiberal, undemocratic, superstitious, homophobic, misogynistic, absurdist and violent aspects of its faith.

Besides, how many times do I have to condemn these attacks? Forgive me for not screeching in unison with your political tribalism, but people can discuss these issues while being critical of Islam. Dogmatic faith being woefully incompatible with western democracies and making integration much more difficult certainly plays a big role in why civil tensions and attacks of this kind are rising. Turning a blind eye to these problems, won't make things any better.

Yes. Because the only way to make society better is to attack an innocent bunch of people because a bunch of people attacked other innocent people.

It's nice to see the new face of Neogaf. Disgusting, despicable, racist, transphobic and islamophobic . The centre is truly a great place to be. :)

This thread highlights how far Gaf has fallen. We see a rise of attacks on innocent people and these racist little scumbags rush in to try and downplay, handwave and victim blame. I'm all for freedom of speech but when there's no substance, no thought, no balance, then there's no point in engaging.

Old Gaf was bad because it was filled with hostile assholes whose only pleasure in life was ban baiting and witch hunting. Now we have a different group of hostile assholes, but the difference between these assholes and the old assholes is only surface level. Two sides of the same hateful coin. It is a shame. If only we could rid of these fucking idiots too and grow a community built on understanding and communication instead of hateful bullshit and ignorance.

I don't know, I kinda like how it's now possible for the assholes from every possible side to come and say their things and their opposers to tell them to shut up without any of the sides being forced to leave. I rather take a controversial debate on a touchy subject or even a childish back and forth yelling than have the losing side to be suppressed and kicked out.

It shouldn't be about having a reality tv like contest where the unfit or offensive people should be eliminated from the group.

This I actually agree with.

Not that the endgame should be to get people banned but if people talk shit then you can tell them they are talking shit. Neither side is going to change their minds but at least the rest of the readers have different arguments and opinions to read and they can make up their own minds.

This thread was never about victims of violence - it was fully intended to be used as an attack on muh literally Orange Hitler Drumpf.

Why the hell else would the OP look at stats from the UK and blame the US president?

The OP never cared about the victims. They were just tools to him.
 
The religion of Brimstone finally having those hot coals poured back upon their heads eh!

Not celebrating it, but you do reap what you sow.
 
Nothing can excuse attacking an innocent person because of their race, any one who says Muslims are the problem have not been around Muslims .. just lettings the internet dictate to you about how the 1.8 billion people live their lives is a stupid way of going about

Where is your evidence that these people were attacked for their race? All I see is people being attacked for an ideology that they choose to believe in.
 
Thats basically his schtick here. Insinuate something massively prejudiced then play coy about it.

He was already banned for a few weeks for "insinuating" that people crossing the border should be shot.

Here, he was warned for talking about Muslims as if they are not people.

I wouldn't expect a straight answer from someone like him.

Because apart from lone wolves attack those macro-cultural effects are only possible due to support of local populations.

Do you think organizations like ISIS or Boko Haram can grow up without being protected and silently supported by local populations ?

Was it just an accident that people responsible for terror attacks in France were hiding in Molenbeek ?

“Aww, it’s so...average,” she said to him in a cold brick of passion
Whew, they keep up that increase and there may be as many attacks on Muslims as there are attacks by Muslims in another 40 years

Because I am betting that you don't.

Nice whataboutism. Still doesn't change the fact that domestic violence and violence against women in general is on the rise in Europe. Much of it can be clearly linked to the Islamic belief that disobedient women deserve a good beating once in a while:

Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other, and because they support them from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient, and guard in (the husband's) absence what Allah would have them guard. As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (Next), refuse to share their beds, (And last) beat them (lightly); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them Means (of annoyance): For Allah is Most High, great (above you all).

— Quran 4:34

This is exacerbated by the fact that many Islamic marriages carried out in the UK, are religious only and never registered. Women who wish to obtain a divorce are forced to go to Sharia councils, often dominated by men and beyond scrutiny often depriving those women of much needed civil rights and protections. Many Muslims in the UK are in favor of Sharia law, but thankfully the UK recently rejected their legitimization:

Calls to legitimise Sharia law courts in the UK has been ruled out by the government. [...] ‘Sharia law has no jurisdiction in the UK and we would not facilitate or endorse regulation, which could present councils as an alternative to UK laws,’ read a Home Office statement. [...] Although it recognised Sharia councils existed, the government said there was no point in banning them as they would end up going underground. [...] There are thought to be up to 85 such courts or councils in England or Wales practicing Sharia law, an Islamic legal system.

Advocating violence against the innocent is in a completely different ball park , you are the one trying to deminish an entire faith in a thread about how people of that faith are being attacked unprovoked. I think the horse I'm on is pretty fine in that respect.

Being an atheist and critical of religion is not the same as being an Islamophobic fascist. Many left-leaning people are critical of religion in general, with the separation of church and state being historically speaking a core tenant of European leftism! As a humanist I also reject all kinds of religious bigotry and zealotry. But you don't care about that, you're just here to blindly label people so that they fit your narrow-minded world view.

Advocating violence against the innocent is in a completely different ball park...

Advocating violence is advocating violence. You don't get do decide who is "innocent" and who is not and you certainly have no right to use physical violence against other people for using words. You're not judge, jury and executioner. And to be quite frank, that same mindset of yours, that violence in certain cases is legitimate, is what's driving these far-right racists to attack other people because of their faith.

Violence should never ever be the answer and it would be good for you to finally get that through your thick head.

...you are the one trying to deminish an entire faith in a thread about how people of that faith are being attacked unprovoked.

Please show me where I've been "diminishing an entire faith"? On numerous occasions have I expressively stated that I'm not talking about all Muslim individuals, hence why I posted that Sam Harris video in the frikkin' first place. Here let my quote myself again:

Also, don't even try accusing me of generalizing as I've already explicitly stated that I'm not accusing all Muslims.

Yet here you are repeating the same bullsh*t assumptions again and again because quite apparently that's all you can muster. Maybe learn to have a proper discussion before you go around accusing others of things that simply are not true. Go label somebody else and point your silly fingers at them.

It depends how you define 'attack'. The Tell Mama group that is always the source of these kind of press releases considers nasty tweets and verbal abuse to be attacks and hate crimes. If you were to change the definition to exclude cases where no physical harm was done not many attacks would remain. And if you were to count deaths you would indeed end up with islamic inspired attacks vastly outnumbering anti-islamic attacks in the UK.

Personally I have witnessed plenty of cases where immigrants are fined for not paying in public transport and using terms like 'cancer-jew' to the ticket controllers. According to Tell Mama this is a hate crime attack.

Cititation needed
Tell Mama confirmed to The Sunday Telegraph that about 120 of its 212 “anti-Muslim incidents” – 57 per cent – took place only online. They were offensive postings on Twitter or Facebook, or comments on blogs: nasty and undesirable, certainly, but some way from violence or physical harm and often, indeed, legal. Not all the offending tweets and postings, it turns out, even originated in Britain.
Although the service says its caseworkers “carefully handle each report as it comes in, to determine whether it can be verified and justified as an anti-Muslim incident”, Mr Mughal admitted that a further 35 of the 212 post-Woolwich incidents, or 16 per cent, had yet to be verified.
Tell Mama’s Twitter feed reported one such incident, of a Muslim woman “knocked unconscious” in Bolton, but the local police said they had no knowledge of this and did not believe it happened.
