Swift Injustice: The Case of Tommy Robinson | ||
2018-05-28 | ||
On Friday, as reported here yesterday, the saga of Tommy Robinson entered a new chapter. British coppers pulled him off a street in Leeds, where, in his role as a citizen journalist, he was livestreaming a Facebook video from outside a courthouse. Inside that building, several defendants were on trial for allegedly being part of a so-called "grooming gang" -- a group of men, almost all Moslem, who systematically rape non-Moslem children, in some cases hundreds of them, over a period of years or decades. Some ten thousand Facebook viewers around the world witnessed Robinson's arrest live. | ||

#15 No big deal. It won't effect me. I'm not a Jew. Eloi, wiling away the time until the Morlocks pick one,of them to be the evening meal. The jihadis did not stop to ascertain whether the individual potential victims were Jewish when they were driving trucks up on the pavement, leaving bombs on subways and concerts, or debauching the daughters of the underclass preparatory to pimping them to their mosque buddies. First time here. Welcome, Snineger Bumble3999! But who is Roger29Palms? |

#14 They are treating him as if he were Irish! |

#13 The look of shock and uneasiness on the faces of the Royals at Judeo Christian values being spoken so openly at a royal wedding by an American preacher is a sign of how arrogantly closed minded and hostile that nation has become in regards to basic human values. |

#12 First time here. Orwell's name for London, "Airstrip One" is now official. I'm surprised Roger29Palms has not heard about what's happening in the U.K...Robinson has been front and center on the subject of Islamisation in the U.K for some years now. |

#11 I feel Tommy was a threat to the main source of establishment funding, namely the immigrant subsidies. |

#10 As oft posted here, there is no 1st Amendment without the 2nd Amendment. Usually, in the aftermath of a revolution, the first order of business is to make sure no one can run the same playbook against the newly-installed government. Our founding fathers had a different vision, not a mad grab for power, but a recognition that over time, all governments devolve towards suckitude. They didn't phrase it like that, of course, coming from a time when literacy was actually a thing, but the attitude shows up in our Constitution which is to a great degree a list of things the federal government is simply not allowed to do. The right to bear arms helps ensure that everyone stays in their lane. |

#9 Londonistan. Gone. Sad. And where is Charles, "defender of the Faith"? |

#8 The feed back I get from my Brit friends is "Que sera sera". No big deal. It won't effect me. I'm not a Jew. |

#7 I am sad to report that you are wrong, Matt, and it is worse than that. From 2015, before such reportage was formally interdicted: Councillors and police 'had sex' with Rotherham abuse victims Feb 4, 2015 [TheWeek] Sordid allegations emerge as council is branded 'not fit for purpose' by inspectors. Some daughters are considerably less equal than others in Old Blighty. |

#6 The inference I'm drawing is that British law enforcement thinks that the potential for violence is so far beyond their control that at all costs they have to avoid offending the Believers, even if it means standing by while British daughters are raped. I hope I'm wrong. |

#5 An the Euros (and American Europhiles) wonder why we hug our guns. As oft posted here, there is no 1st Amendment without the 2nd Amendment. |

#4 Formerly Great Britain has apparently gone 'full soviet'. Keep that in mind if you're planning a European trip. |

#3 For my part, I cannot for the life of me fathom why not a single prominent or powerful individual in all of the United Kingdom has come forward to challenge the mistreatment of Tommy Robinson – and thereby stand up for freedom of speech. Unless of course, the English Defense League - being a 'far-right-wing, anti-Moslem' group - deserves to be thrashed for their views. Terrifying, indeed. |

#2 Until reading this article I had no idea England had become so Obama-like. I have difficulty absorbing this "new England." |

#1 I'd say this could get ugly but it looks like it already is. Could get uglier still. |
