diver dan,
Ditto !
Same with the moron who mowed down these people with the car.

I think most sort of sane people would agree that the call by Islam to control the World is not to everyone's liking. So, I find it quite natural that people who openly flaunt their support for World domination by insisting to wear the uniform associated with that movement, are deliberately & consciously challenging their hosts' sense of patriotism to protect their lifestyle.
My feeling is that if you stop challenging people you won't get challenged in return !

Couldn't agree more (individual).

We've hit on a solid base for reform. We could take a walk back through history for a solution, and come up with a better and more appropriate form of justice for these public acts of horror against peaceful citizens, simply going about their private business.
Why should anybody be subjected to the anxiety of inappropriate outcomes impeding this basic right of freedom?

I like the approach of Duterte. Here is a local boy of the Philippines, famed for his extrajudicial killings of drug users and dealers, and other criminal elements in Philippine scum.
His is an example of "put your money where your mouth is" politics: And was a mayor of
Davao city for seven terms.

My view is, either the authorities hand these scum over to the public to deal with, (historical context), or let the public see some form of real and practical retribution.
Both of these basics are missing.

Individual:

My.. "couldn't agree more".. statement is not applicable to your last post above this.
If I agreed with that bigoted nonesense, I'd come up agreeing that it's ok to condemn religious apparel in public places, but not school uniforms.
That is just plain stupid. If that's the world you want, then it's already here. That world comes with tit-for-tat retribution as an outcome.
Obviously you failed to watch this video of a similar event aimed at Shaw college students on the North Shore of Sydney, dressed in their high profile school uniform.

While I would never physically attack anyone for any reason at at all, I have to say that I find the wearing of mediaeval apparel in a modern Western country very irritating, totally unnecessary and divisive. However, physical violence against people, no matter what they are wearing or what they look like, is increasing all the time. Authorities are obviously incapable of stopping it, so it would seem to be a good idea to avoid looking so different from the mainstream as to make it easier for some disturbed person to pick a target. We all have a responsibility for our own safety - even more these days, given the lack of interest in violence displayed by our police and judiciary, who are more interested in policing speech and political correctness than they are in dealing with crime.

Well ttbn:

as a kid, and for many years, I grew up among Israelites. They never shaved, nor cut their hair, ( pre-Beatles), wore funny little bowler black hats and white shirts with funny little waistcoats, and never engaged publicly with anybody I noticed.
We just stopped and stared, and it seems the whole town did the same.

But in reality they were embraced in the community, and were respected for their enterprise and reciprocal dedication to our society and town.
Where have those tollerent days gone, tell me!
