People who make excuses for extremism or who try to deflect criticism of extremism by saying "what about..." or who say we have to accept it because it is cultural, e.g., Gazolba's post above.

Not all all. I hate radical Islam but I have many Muslim friends. Most of them hate radical Islam as well, especially the ones who have received death threats from Muslim extremists for not being a "proper" Muslim. The Ahmadiyya and Sufi Muslims are especially targeted by Islamist extremists...

Yes, but it's a vicious circle. Online media means less money for print media, which means lower quality journalism, and this in turn leads to fewer people spending money on print media. The print media industry is basically fucked.

People will pay even less for shitty journalism, which is where the print media are currently at.

Yes, if the complaints are clearly trivial as the complaint was in this particular case.

In Iran women are not allowed to attend football matches for religious reasons. So in the recent game against Syria, some women were forced to pretend to be Syrian supporters in order to circumvent the ban. World Cup: Iranian women refused entry to match despite holding tickets - BBC News I am...

The only way to make a difference is by using borderline illegal tactics against TF and JS. But we know that this will incur the ire of many fans who find it hard to see that an illegal action can also sometimes be a moral action. So nothing gets done.

No, he's merely been threatened with investigation for a hate crime. For most people such a threat would effectively be the same as censorship as they would be afraid to say the same thing again. Yes, we know how the regressive left operates.

Print media is a dying industry. FFS most "journalists" now are incapable of spelling or using the correct grammar, much less uncovering a real story. Even in the national papers the quality of writing is at an all time low. They're finished.

EFL is probably panicking because we have nowhere to play next season. A shame some of our fans don't show the same concern.

On your first comment. No I did not say that at all. On your second comment. The Qu'ran compares Jews to apes and pigs and calls for their extermination. I would post links but your first comment shows that you are unable to follow basic logic and/or read.

Indeed. And Muslims in the Balkans fought with Hitler only because of his anti-Semitic views. Which is not surprising given that the Qu'ran compares Jews to apes and pigs and calls for the extermination of all Jews. Bringing it up to the present day, both Hamas and the Muslim brotherhood...

Really? In what way?

Correct. Someone being killed by a Nazi is just as bad as someone being killed by a Jihadi. However, what are the numbers? How many people were killed by Nazis during the past decade, and how many were killed by Jihadis? In fact, the Jihadi mentality is very similar to the Nazi ideology. One...

Yes, that's right. Edinburgh University has accused a law student of committing a hate crime because he ridiculed ISIS on social media. They claim that his words could be construed as being offensive to Muslims. The regressives on the left are always telling us that ISIS has nothing to do with...

The figures show that 7/10 young people in the UK are not religious. It is progress. But the decline in religion also needs to be replaced with more education, especially in the sciences. It's science that advances the human condition, while it is religion that impedes it.

Yes. And Huddersfield have done so badly after ditching Robins and Taylor haven't they.

But playing football is not a real job is it. If you choose to be a footballer you have to expect the boos as well as the cheers. I honestly don't think players give a toss either way. If their performance is affected by fans, they are in the wrong occupation.

Clough and Taylor. Robins and Taylor. I can see why you are drawing parallels. But I also think you are clutching at straws. LOL

Got to give him a go. If he doesn't work out we will need to get a striker in on loan because the others don't seem to be working out either. If we don't sort out the forward line we can forget about promotion.
