OAKVILLE, Ont. - Halton police are treating an attack on a first-time author whose self-published book has been branded anti-Muslim as a possible hate crime.
Raised Islamic, Paris Dipersico, 24, reported being dragged from his bicycle Aug. 17, tied up among trees, then beaten briefly unconscious by two Muslim men.
Accused of being gay, they then "called me a Jew in Arabic and said the Jews are paying you to write this against Islam," the author of Wake Up Call said Thursday.
Dipersico said he also received a "death threat" on his Facebook site, then someone stole files and backup writing discs after breaking into the home he shares with cousin Gabrielle Dipersico -- who helped design the book and whose photo is on the cover.
Believing the threat came "from the Middle East," he said it demanded he remove offensive language.
After treatment for cuts and bruises, Dipersico said on his publisher's advice, "I'm taking out some of the graphically sexual stuff," but not the rest.

Interesting - about 30 miles from me. I will be watching to see how (or if) this is reported on Canadian media.

Wake Up Call

Hope it is true and not an attempt just to raise the profile of his book.
During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act. - George Orwell

Survive first.
Set about changing the rules second.
Nothing else needs to be said does it?
Good quote - thanks for posting it.
There must be billions of invisible Jews.
Jews get blamed for everything in the Arab world - seems they wouldn't have time to work or raise families with all the Arabs each of them must oppress.
They're hiding the invisible ones somewhere.../s
New Tagline.
Excellent
As I told another FReeper who suggested the same thing, If this is a ploy I will be the 1st to post anything saying such.
The Religion of Peace strikes again.
How long are Western societies going to tolerate this nonsense?
The fool is in Canada so he is basically on his own & if the mad ass mohammadans want to hack him into little pieces the Mounties won’t do squat till after his dismembered corpse is found in a alley somewhere & even then they (the mounties) will do only the minimum required for political correctness reasons.
