Stories of crimes by "refugees", asylum-seekers and other -- mostly Muslim -- migrants appear in the European media every day. Particularly abhorrent are the rapes and murders of white women by Muslims from the shitholes of North Africa and the Middle East. Although I doesn't read Polish, I suspect the message of this poster is that Europeans are sick, sore and tired of having to put up with that kind of thing.
The poster appeared on Blazing Cat Fur today with a link to a story on SputnikNews headed "Gang Rape by Boys Aged 12, 14 Triggers Debate on Lowering Criminality Age in Germany". They report the victim -- an 18-year-old woman -- of a sexual assault by a five-strong gang of boys, aged from 12 to 14, was found nearly unconscious in the bushes in the industrial German city of Mulheim.
Although the SputnikNews story doesn't refer to the race, ethnicity or religion of the perps in either case -- reporting those things, or even the names of the accused, is verboten in the Fatherland -- most readers would jump [not very far. Ed.] to the conclusion that the yoofs were Muslim migrants.
But for now, all we know is that some of the "boys" will escape prosecution entirely, because the minimum age of criminal responsibility is 14 in Germany and several other European countries, and 15 in Scandinavia, where such occurrences are even more common. And yet, they are still still minors -- until the age of 18! -- in the eyes of the United Nations High Commission on Refugees.
The head of the German police union told the meeja, "For years we've been demanding that the age of criminal responsibility be lowered in Germany." The head of the German Association of Judges was quick to invoke political correctness. Hey, they're only kids! And Muslim kids at that! Show a little compassion...
The (not very carefully) hidden agenda of the Liberals and SJWs who are trying to push Motion M-103 through the Canadian parliament is to make Sharia Law "acceptable". "We're not trying to make it the law of the land," they say, "only to allow it to be used in Sharia courts to govern the lives of Muslims." Got it? Who could argue with that? "Islamophobes", that's who. If you think there's something wrong with that idea -- shame on you! -- you'd better not say so or write so, publicly, because we'll sic the PC police on ya!
On the other hand, if you agree with the premise, and are willing to allow your Muslim neighbours to submit themselves to Sharia Law, if that's what they want, as long as it doesn't apply to you, consider the following true story, told by Rex Murphy in one of his newspaper columns, nearly ten years ago. (I'm paraphrasing and editing a bit here, for the sake of brevity.)
"Saudi king pardons gang-rape victim" has to be one of the oddest sentences ever written. It simply does not compute. We do not know a world in which gang-rape victims are the ones seeking or receiving pardons, from Saudi kings or other potentates. We know instead a world where those who have endured the near-unendurable torments and dehumanizing outrages of gang rape inspire the most profound sympathy and concern. the headline springs from the story of a most unfortunate 19-year-old who was charged with the "crime" of being in a car with a man who was not a relative, when both were set upon by seven men, both raped -- she most violently, for two hours -- by all seven, and more than once. She was reduced to numbness, shock and near-suicide and suffered horrific psychological and physical trauma. But in the world of Saudi Arabia's sharia jurisprudence, the gang-raped 19-year-old had to appear before her Islamic judges and be tried for the crime of sitting in a car with a man. At first, her sentence was considered lenient -- a mere ninety lashes and some months in jail. She had both the dignity and simple force of character to protest this monstrous verdict, with the help of a lawyer of some courage and resource. For the temerity of appealing a mindless and barbaric sentence, she had her sentence increased to two hundred lashes. And six months in jail, presumably necessary to give the stripes from the whip time to turn into scars. The world at large found this excessive and, to be truthful, both odd and cruel too, beyond even the odd and cruel bounds of the ancient codes that, sadly, are still imposed on so many of the women of so many countries. The king of Saudi Arabia must have felt the wave of revulsion and contempt that followed on the world's press coverage of this outrage, and thus is came to pass that a 19-year-old who had been raped, shamed and tormented by seven men was relieved of the further shame and torment of two hundred lashes and incarceration for half a year of her young life. But "King pardons gang-rape victim" remains an atrocious declaration, a simultaneously absurd and mean statement.
The apologists for the extreme forms of Islam [Is there any other form? Ed.] should read and rererad this cautionary tale and ask themselves if they would really, really be comfortable having Sharia law -- notice I didn't say "justice" -- meted out by the mullahs to their neighbours, even if they are Muslims and feel bound to submit to it. Is this consistent with the Western (add "Christian" if you like) values for which those people came to Europe and North America? Is there any reason, any reason at all why we should change our values, our culture, our society to accommodate the barbaric rules and practices of Islam? Well? Is there?!
If words aren't enough to convince you there's something wrong with the idea of making Sharia law the law of the land, here's a video that might persuade you. It's not Saudi Arabia, but the province of Aceh, Indonesia, where Sharia is the law of the land. It was posted just over a year ago.
Further reading: I found the column by Rex Murphy, adapted and quoted above, in a compilation of his writings called Canada and Other Matters of Opinion (Doubleday Canada 2009). Highly recommended.
I didn't have to wait long. According to Associated Press, Die Polizei von Koln have detained hundreds of men "seemingly of African descent" as part of operations to prevent a repeat of the attacks seen in that city a year ago. Whether "African" means sub-Saharan African -- the real black ones -- or North African -- the Muslim Arabs -- was not made clear, but I know which way I'm betting. (See UPDATE below.)
Cologne police say the men were detained at two main train stations so that officers could question them and check their identities, to determine if they're "refugees" or asylum-seekers or failed asylum-seekers or just plain old illegal immigrants. Some revelers complained on Twitter that police appeared to be detaining people based on their appearance alone. Inspektor Katzenjammer was heard to say that they didn't have anything else to go on.
By early New Year's Day, police had received reports of two -- only two -- women being sexually assaulted in Cologne. One man was arrested. His nationality (or lack thereof) has so far not been disclosed.
UPDATE: Cologne police have now admitted that by "African" they mean, errr, NORTH African, by which they mean Arabs, by which they mean Muslims. Hundreds of people were robbed and sexually assaulted during New Year's celebrations in Cologne last year. The crimes were blamed largely on men of North African origin who had taken advantage of chaotic and crowded scenes around the city's cathedral.
Cologne Police Chief Juergen Mathies said he had instructed officers to intervene sooner this year. Of the 650 people detained for identity checks, almost all were from North African countries, he said, adding that "their characteristics were such that potential crimes could indeed be expected." Is it possible that Chief Mathies has not yet read Angela Merkel's diktat about "Willkommenskultur"?
Last May, the Austrians held a presidential election in which the No. 1 issue was immigration -- specifically, the admission to the country of hordes of Muslim invaders posing as asylum-seekers. Anti-immigrant backlash looked like putting the anti-immigrant Freedom Party into office. But just when FPÖ candidate Norbert Hofer was measuring the drapes of the Hofburg, 1000s of postal ballots suddenly appeared, giving the edge to the incumbents. See "Absentee votes deny Freedom Party victory in Austrian election", WWW 23/5/16.
The good news is that the vote was so close, and the suspicion of electoral fraud so strong, that the Freedom Party's appeal to the Austrian Constitutional Court was successful, and a do-over has been ordered. The reply will take place on either 25 September or 2 October.
Rewind to New Year's Day in Vienna, when a white German woman went to police claiming that she had been raped by a gang of Arab foreigners. Inspektor Katzenjammer didn't exactly spring into action. Only last week -- the middle of August -- following a painstaking (and ballsachingly slow) investigation, and careful analysis of DNA evidence and CCTV camera footage, did Austrian police announce the arrests of nine (9) Iraqi "refugees". Aged between 21 and 47, all nine had applied for or been granted asylum.
Sex attacks by Muslim "migrants" from the Middle East and North Africa are nothing new in Europe, with numerous outrages being reported in Germany, Sweden and other countries that have welcomed the poor downtrodden "refugees". Austria has seen its share of attacks, not just on women but even brutal homosexual attacks on little boys at public swimming pools.
In this case, Austrians are asking why it took nearly eight months to arrest the perps. Was the investigation so "protracted and difficult" as the police claim? Vienna police spokesthingy Paul Eidenberger said there was "no doubt about the gang rape according to the biological traces." And (they say now) what happened was pretty clear. The Arabs met the woman in Vienna's central Schwedenplatz, drugged her, and then assaulted her for four hours in an apartment where two of the attackers lived.
Surely the FPÖ can be forgiven for suggesting that the delay in arresting the criminals was a deliberate attempt to withhold the news during the run-up to the presidential election. But the cat is out of the bag now. News of the gang rape, combined with ongoing refugee-terrorist attacks and other criminal activities by the Muslim invaders, is expected to push even more Austrian voters into the FPÖ camp come the fall. Stay tuned.
