he was treating the incident as race-related.

"Triggered by" -- actually, People who have had it with Islam and the ROP and a bunch of baloney that's been coming down for the last 20 years.

I think the chickens are coming home to roost. First the guys in Australia who stood up to the gangs roaming the beaches. Then the Pope and the Prime Minister of Australia. Now this. People are not buying the CAIR diversity baloney. (Not to lump the Pope with street gangs ....)

Something in it is SO RIGHT.

This may be off-point but I just returned from London. On the way to the airport, there were at least three huge billboards on the highway (M4?) that read, "Has anything good ever come from America?". There was no credit on the billboard. I came very close to tears although the cab driver didn't notice.

I guess Great Britain has chosen sides on the war with Fascism.

This is a strange article. 200 people poured out (one stabbed) and there is no description of the perps throwing rocks (and presumably armed with a knife).

Was this 1, 10, 50 youths? Male, female, mixed? What race?

I recall reading recently of brawls between blacks, primarily of Caribbean descent, and "Asians" (often Brit press code for people of Pakistani extraction) in another English city. I wonder if that's what this is.

"There was no major disorder or serious incident."

They must define things differently over there. When was the last time we had a riot of any proportion? The Rodney King incident?

No one is going to be happy with the tarnishing of such great efforts we have made in Preston in the past 40 years."

..if ya think about the last 10 years you'll see where your problem lies. If you don't address the "problem" and enforce British law, rock throwing and near riot, will seem like a mere "touch up" to use a British phrase.

Hundreds of Muslims against hundreds of Muslims in England during Ramadan. ...interesting. The vague nature of statements to avoid details to be published to the "Arab world" and to the USA are also interesting.

"Preston's police chief said the problems were triggered by local youths throwing stones at cars belonging to people attending the mosque."

Looks like Preston's police chief is out of touch with local and global current events. Lest he would know that the trouble wasn't triggered by the "local youths."

*** The Six Point Plan ***
- Declare Islam illegal just as Nazism is illegal in Germany
- Declare illegal the sale and possession of the Koran, just like Mein Kampf in Germany
- Seize and bulldoze the mosques, liquidate their assets
- Deport or imprison all Islamic troublemakers, imams, and enablers
- Halt all immigration from Islamic countries
- Vigorously prosecute treason and insurrection as capital offenses

Looks like Preston has been giving in to the Muslim demands for 40 years. Cry me a river.

My God-son is a police officer in Preston.

Tried calling him but he is still on duty.

If I get any first-hand info., I'll post it.

"It's getting ridiculous and for the last two nights there's been fighting." Ms Street is absolutely right.

If the Brits were properly armed the fight would be over in just a few minutes, if there were a fight at all. Here "yobs" are quickly perforated, problem resolved.
