Stand up and be called a racist
Reader comment on item: The West Stands Up for Its Customs
in response to reader comment: Pay the price to defend Western values

Submitted by Brian (Australia), Jul 6, 2006 at 03:24

You may have read that in Sydney, Australia, there was a gathering of people to demonstrate against groups of MOMEAs (Men Of Middle Eastern Appearance) who bashed some surf life savers (life guards) on Cronulla beach in January 2006. They were quickly labelled as racist by the media. The Islamic response to this demonstration was to smash many cars and stab a number of people in the streets, at night of course, then quickly run back to their ghetto.

An ongoing problem for Sydneysiders: http://www.smh.com.au/news/paul-sheehan/community-is-paying-for-inaction/2006/05/28/1148754868749.html

For our children's sake, stand up and be counted. Say no to Islamic violence.
