    It's a fantasy to want to wait for a news source that is known for their responsible journalism, who have a department dedicated to identifying and highlight "fake news", and who, especially tonight, didn't leap on the identifying a wrong attacker bandwagon.

    I am not saying you are doing anything. I am merely saying to wait. Is it really that crazy to try and be responsible?

    As humanji pointed out, remember in Quebec when that attack happened and we had the exact same sh1t happening in a thread about that, the exact same conversation, and yet that person turned out to be a Trump supporter.

    So instead of jumping on everything, why not wait until all the facts are known?

    Any word from the Cobra meeting , is it a case of closing the stable door after the terrorist has bolted. Do they know the suspect yet?
    What are they hoping to achieve with this Cobra meeting. Incidents like this are impossible to stop. Should we ban cars now as they as so easy to get hold of and so easy to use as weapons.

    Why don't you quote my other post where I said some Muslims are good people but Islam needs to be banned? I never contradicted myself. Being cautious doesn't mean labelling every Muslim as a terrorist.

    By that logic, Britain should have banned all Irish people for 30 years.

    Fake news, I'm afraid. Do a little research for yourself.

    Why don't you ask the reporters who went to Sweden about this so-called "fake news"? You lefties fake **** all the ****ing time.

    Have you the Swedish Crime statistics to prove it?

    Leftie? I'm right-handed.

    Here's a clue: of, definition, changed, rape, was, the, Sweden, in.

    Seems silly that car can mount that footpath. The footpath is as wide as a single lane, and it should have had barriers to protect people.

    From this article:
    Police believe the attacker struck alone and was inspired by Islamist-related international terrorism.
    They think they know his identity and are investigating possible associates.

    Think and believe doesn't sound like definitive statements to me, does it sound like that to you?

    I don't know if it was a Muslim. You don't know if it was a Muslim. You think it is, but you don't know it is. Because there hasn't been any official comment from either the authorities or at least no mention of it by news agencies.

    If it was a Muslim, then it was a Muslim.

    Mark Urban said they do, said he had a similar profile to the Lee Rigby attackers

    Indeed. But my point remains. Because some Irish people were doing bad things, Britain should have banned all Irish people. According to his 'logic'.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,631 ✭✭✭✭Hank Scorpio


    There's been 100's of people killed in Europe since December 2015, triple that amount injured due to radical Islamic terrorism. Those are facts, it's real. This car argument sums up the left aptly, I really do think it's some kind of mental disorder, and if we were living in the UK, or France, or Germany, or wherever else, the discussion would be entirely different. Ireland is lucky in the sense that we're so far out nothing like the incident in the UK has happened yet, but if what i'd describe as fools in this thread continue ignoring the problem and they represent the consensus of the people in power, it's only a matter of time. I'll do everything in my limited power to prevent that, and the "Silent Majority" in the UK and US have shown me my beliefs aren't idiotic, it's the ones making the rules who are, and the buffoons who follow them.

    So to prove you weren't contradicting yourself you want to highlight one of your posts that said the opposite to your other posts #logic

    Wouldn't have very effective considering most of the would-be bombers would have been UK citizens.

    I've already ****ing explained this.
    IRISH. IS. NOT. AN. IDEOLOGY.
    The IRA were an ideological group, they should be banned from the UK, by my logic.
    Islam is a disgusting ideology. Forget ****ing ISIS. Islam is disgusting and has no place in Europe, it's not compatable with democracy or human rights. And anyone who thinks it is, I hope ISIS get you.

    Fanatical Islam is the problem, not Islam itself and most certainly not Muslims

    I agree that not all muslims are bad or terrorists but it's the amount of them that have those extreme views is the problem.

    Wait.. so you're saying that people that don't believe in what you're saying should be put the death ...?

    I dunno, you're starting to sound like a Muslim.

    Coffee flavoured Quality Streets are disgusting as well. Can we ban them too?

    That doesn't give any statistical analysis of rape offences in Sweden though

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,435 ✭✭✭pumpkin4life


    I guess the question on a lot of people's minds is: will there be a wakeup? Will Western Europeans get moving. get out of this virtue signalling crap and get it into their heads that this whole thing is a massive existential crisis; that these terrorist attacks are symptoms; canaries in the coal mines for birthrates, takeovers, that kind of thing?

    By the way, when I say wakeup, I mean do very simple stuff like having a controlled immigration and sensible border policy for a start. I'm not talking massive wars or anything like that.

    In order for there to be this wakeup, you need TWO things to happen; both of which Islam is kicking the West's ass on.

    1: An increase in Patriotism/Nationalism .
    2: An increase in spirituality, or deep religious feeling; pride, religion if you want, or the ability and the drive to put yourself forward for cause x. The lads who will die for the 72 virgins and all of that.

    Category one is happening all over Europe, but it won't work on its own. In fact, in some ways that is what fascism actually is: its an ugly, bolloxed artifical attempt to breathe Patriotism/Nationalism into a zombie of a country. Not saying fascism will happen again btw, just pointing that out. So it has to be authentic, people really have to feel it.

    Category two is the horribly dodgy one that I'm really not sure on. People are increasingly nihilistic and apathetic, finding things and jobs and 9 to 5s to be just time killers, all of that. To trigger that feeling of pride/spirituality is going to have to take a massive cataclysmic event.

    Either that, or you'll see a gradual Islamification of Western Europe in the coming years. It will just, sort of happen.

    Honestly, the poster got banned so there's no much point having a go as they can't come back and comment.
