boltonboris Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Has anybody other than right wing white people ever referred to it as the religion of peace? Quote

Lt. Aldo Raine Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Plenty of people other than right-wing white people have described Islam as a religion of peace It was from that that the perjorative use developed Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted March 4 Posted March 4 It's very much a British trait to use words in a sarcastic manner. Usually as a result of observation of reality, not necessarily politically, although that no doubt will play a part. Quote

That's the way we do everything these days isn't it? 😉😁 Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Not sure this is inter-town rivaly though. More like intra-town rivalry. Quote
gonzo Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Just any normal weekend in Blackpool. The bloke who threw the chicken nugget might regret his actions. Slightly OTT one may say. Quote

It's young lads fighting each other over tribalism. Whether that's what branch of a religion they were born into, which football team they support or what type of music they listen to - it's the same thing. Different story if they start shooting each other or blowing things up of course. But it does serve to show that you can't treat Muslims as one coherent monolith. Either way - that want shoeing!

gonzo Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Did find it quite amusing watching some acquaintances decry the situation that were there prompt and present when United came back in the early 00s Quote

Either way - that want shoeing! no different to this is it https://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/news/5916073.12-arrests-as-rival-fans-clash/ A HUGE fight broke out between more than 150 rival football fans at Bolton railway station -- leaving dozens of passengers terrified. More than 100 Wanderers supporters are believed to have spilled out of nearby pubs to fight with a 60-strong Manchester United mob following the teams' 1-1 draw at the Reebok Stadium. There were 12 arrests, including one for possession of an offensive weapon, following the battle and one man was taken to hospital with a head injury. Rail staff cowered behind their counters and passengers looked on in terror as United fans got off a train from Manchester and charged across a walkway from the platform below. Quote

If that's all it was it wouldn't be so bad. Just an indicator of a wider problem. Moreover, just because football fans can sometimes scrap savagely, doesn't make religious based violence any more acceptable. Quote

Kind of have to feel sorry for the place Quote

Almost heart-warming to see things are no different than they were 25 years ago. The only real difference is cigs have been replaced by vapes. Quote
