RMHoward give me your opinion of Westboro Baptist Church protesting soldiers funerals, and tell me how that differs from the video above.

In my opinion, while you claim that the UK is being overrun by extremist Muslims, I could contend that the US is being overrun by extremist Christians.

Both groups are very vocal minorities, much like the posters on Jacksonville.com and some of the very "vocal" right-wing supporters on this very site. They don't represent the norm or the mainstream of the country. Sure, it makes for some great video to stress "your side" of the propaganda war.

As a Christian, active with my church groups and such, I can tell you that Westboro is about as welcome among Baptists as a Klansman at an NAACP meeting. They are seen as a rogue, unthinking congregation and an embarrassment to Christianity.

Adam,
Thanks for your response. I posted a video and asked for honest opinions.  You gave yours.  Thanks again.  You claim the video is racist.  How so? It is very easy to label someone or something as racist.  I do not recall any reference to race mentioned from either side in this video.  Did i miss it?  Was the video taken out of context? Or was it fabricated?  Is this an isolated incident of this type of demonstration? Please elaborate.  You claim that posting this video shows a "certain amount of ignorance".  How so?   I sense an extra ordinary sensitivity from you on this issue and perhaps a little, shall we say intolerance for those who are alarmed by the video content.

The video is very racist. It's called "TIP OF THE ICEBERG: THE EFFECTS OF IMMIGRATION FROM THE 3RD WORLD".

The woman in the video even talks about the actions of an extreme few or something like that, but the video tries to imply that the UK is being overrun by muslim extremists. I don't know much about the case those guys were protesting, but it's their right.

It's also worth noting that a lot of christians believe non-christians are going to go to hell because they aren't christian. I don't see a huge difference there.

Finally, I'd like to point out the irony (and idiocy) of having someone with the surname "Dooley" complaining about immigrants to England and the UK.

I would bet money the video was produced by the EDL.
