Trump Petition

[matelot]

If Muslims are such peaceful people and hardly any of them are extremists why are so many Islamic countries so violent?

 

If I walked about Iraq/ Somalia/ Pakistan/ Afghanistan etc I would get killed. Yet somehow we are meant to believe that Islam is a peaceful religion?

[Mark J]

Northern Ireland wasn't too great not so long ago. Do you feel the same way about Christians?

[Paul Barton]

 

If I walked about Iraq/ Somalia/ Pakistan/ Afghanistan etc I would get killed.

 

Would you really though?!

Would you really though?!

 

I don't know.

 

One of my uncles and cousins used to work in Afghan and Iraq, they never went outside of their compound without armed guards. Which makes me think it might be a bit rough in places.

[Commando]

So why doesn't Trunp ban Muslims from Sauidi? After all, it's only fifteen years since they blew up the twin towers...

 

Do you think we should stop buying oil from there and selling them weapons?

 

Because right now Saudi are fighting their own was against IS, and sharing their intelligence with the US, who share it with UK. Same with UAE.

 

If we don't buy Saudi oil where do we get it? They possess 18% of the worlds proven oil reserves and are the big cheese in OPEC, who control collectively 80% of oil reserves (proven). So until we break our addiction to oil and its derivatives we are kind of f**ked!

[Mark J]

I get that, I was just trying to highlight the hypocrisy of matelot's radicalised rantings.

[Mortimer Firewood]

Would you really though?!

 

A freind of mine is a diplomat in packistan and he goes no where with out body guards and said that Cristian's and churches are regularly atacked Weston media never reports it.

[Gary Prentice]

There are 20,000,000 muslims living in Europe in a fully integrated harmonious society, do any of you seriously believe they all want us dead? If they did we would know about it.

I'm not stupid, I'm well aware that some certainly do, but they are few and far between.

 

I'm not sure where you actually live but if you have an accident in 'certain areas', have the police advised you to drive away and go to the nearest police station to report it? Does your wife get spat at because she's white? Are cars set alight and the fire brigade stoned when they attend?

 

You have a rose tinted view of 'a fully integrated and harmonious society', many wish and live that but plenty don't!

 

And none of the above is off the Internet or other media, I've lived in these places and witnessed everything I'm asking you. Areas twenty years ago that I'd comfortably walk through at midnight, I wouldn't walk through now in daylight because of my skin colour.

[matelot]

Would you really though?!

 

My colleague went no North Pakistan for a walking holiday. It was just him on the trip, on the first day him and his guide went to the police station. During the entire trip he was accompanied by an armed policeman.

 

Why do you think he had a policeman protecting him?

 

I knew someone that works in Saudi. She lives in a compound, there are Saudi army around the compound with .50 cal Brownings. She's a schoolteacher ffs.

 

So I think it safe to say a westerner walking about Pakistan/ Syria/ Iraq/ Afghanistan etc would get killed.....

I'm gonna start a petition to get any reference to Trump removed from Arbtalk.

Wish there was a button to turn off these threads!

cheers, steve
