#1 Bad link. One of the mods needs to repost the instructions for noobees.

#3 Thanks, Tipper. It will be interesting to see how long up with this the English will put. This could almost make the natives sympathise with the CoE. I can see Ian Paisley getting into the gun running business again at this rate.

#5 "The youths are anti-Christian. It's terrible what they have done to Canon Ainsworth.

Lets please not call them what they are: MUSLIMS.

The truth might offend them.

#6 They are almost certainly Muslim by family background. But if, as the story suggests, they were drunk and high it's just as likely that they are in a no-man's-zone between their parents' culture and modernity.

#7 "it's just as likely that they are in a no-man's-zone between their parents' culture and modernity"

I. Don't. Care.

#8 I do. That can be dealt with more easily than the committed jihadi.

Provided Britain is willing to do so. They aren't doing a good job with the ethnically British yobs either. And educated ethnic Britains are emigrating in droves.

Why should I care? Because the UK is a nuclear power and a voting member of the UN security council and NATO, among other reasons. And because they and the Aussies are the closest in culture and values to us among our allies, still.

I still have hopes they can get their house in order. Not high hopes, alas, but hopes nonetheless.

If they don't it's going to be even worse for us than I'm projecting for the next decade or more. And withdrawing from NATO and the UN would do little for us in the short and mid-term, even if it could be done quickly.

#9 Sounds like a couple of "youts" need to do about 150 years' hard time digging a second Channel tunnel - this time to Jersey. For safety equipment, give them a long rubber hose and a cork float.

Of course, the most successful course of action would be to crush their right hand and expel them to Soddy aRabida.

#10 The attack took place in the early evening after Canon Ainsworth politely asked three Asian youths who had gathered in the churchyard to quieten down.

The Brits are soooo politically correct. Don't want to offend anyone--particularly the mooselimbs. How long must this charade go on before they get medieval?

#12 Keep pushing. Just a little more. Any day now.

#13 If a few non-Muslim youths pulled the same stunt at a mosque -- beating up the imam and shouting that it should become a church -- would the Muslim community be passive? I think not. Nor should it be. The infidel Brits are doomed by their own passivity.

And another thing: If I were a non-Muslim "Asian youth" I'd be pissed at the cowardly MSM for libeling me.

#14 Wife Jan insists her husband feared publicity over the attack could lead to racial tension
Er, excuse me maam, please tell Vicar Ainsworth that high tension is already there and it needs publicizing -- including the religion of the offenders.

#15 Darrell is correct about the Brits being doomed by their own passivity; except that it's not the Brits, it's the Christians and their secular fellow travelers. Until someone starts really thundering from the pulpit about what is being done to Christians in Dar es Salaam as well as the middle of Christendom, we should only expect more of the same. Even B-XVI is too muted about this.

#18 Darrell...you are spot on. The non-muslim youth would be imprisoned for hate crimes.

Sadly it doesn't appear that there's a Churchill to save them this time.
