Actually my points were that a) Islam is the elephant in the room that needs to be talked about with all this jihad bombing tulip.

Go ahead then talk about it ....

Delete what you like, delete everything you don't agree with or has an opposing view to your own. The power of the moderator!

He hasn't done that though so what on earth are you complaining about?

So I'm thick, fick, sonny, a silly boy, not the sharpest tool.

How many more insults before your sheriff badge gets revoked I wonder?

Why would a moderator not be allowed to conduct themself in a way deemed acceptable by the community and moderators? It's clear that insults are tolerated here so why would he not be allowed to play too?

NotAllThere - 60%

Which I read as: b) the migrants are not just Syrian escaping war (refugees), but most (of the Syrians) are Economic Migrants.

Get it now?

The mention of deleting your post was to counter your argument that I didn't lock this thread because it would have made me look tulip. If I was after stopping you expressing your opinion, I could do that very easily. The reason I haven't done it is because there really is no need to - and if I did it really would be an abuse of moderator privilege. As everyone else, you're free to pretty much say what you like within the bounds of decency.

The thread was locked because it was going off topic. I did consider briefly splitting it off to a new thread, but didn't really see that it would add value.

But you go ahead and believe it was to oppress you, remove your "rights", and that you've been threatened by someone who is overwhelmingly drunk on power.

Perhaps you should go for a brisk walk and get a breath of fresh air and perspective before you burst something. You do seem rather a humourless angry old man.

Feel free to have the final word. I'm bored now.

Thanks, happy to have the final word.

EU migrants are mainly coming from the Middle East, North Africa, Russia, and Eastern non EU Europe. As per previous posts.

Clearly there are refugees in this mix, highest numbers are clearly Syrian (fleeing a war), but when you look at the Total number of migrants from all countries of origin, approximately 60% are economic migrants and NOT refugees.

So it is disingenuous to portray the migrant crisis as a) a Middle East only crisis, and b) a Syria only crisis.

Despite how bad it may seem in the UK and Europe generally. We are fortunate to live in one of the least bad places on earth.

I am happy for our country to help those truly in need. But if migrants/asylum seekers/refugees/whatever you want to call them aims are to demand changes to our way of life, not integrate and add to society, to sponge off benefits, or blow themselves up in holy jihad; they can Foxtrot Oscar.

Can't be arsed. Did you have any interesting insights or was it just the usual half-baked generalisations.?*

Enjoy the house, I'm sure you worked hard for it.

Brussels Zaventem bombing

How does "If someone I knew from the Muslim community was planning an act of violence I would report them to the police - 94% agree" show much sympathy for terrorists?
Do you understand basic English?
Surely if you had much sympathy for terrorists you wouldn't report them?

Yes I did work hard for the house, thanks. It's all paid for now.
