LONDON -- On a Friday night in East London, activists with a group called "Britain First" took to the streets for what they call a Christian patrol. Our cameras went along with them as they entered a "predominantly Muslim occupied area," according to one of the group's members.
It wasn't long before there was a confrontation.
"What are you filming me for?" shouted a passerby.
"This ain't your area pal, it's a Christian area, always has been," shouted back Paul Golding, the 32-year-old leader of Britain First.
A former truck driver, Golding has been convicted for harassment. While it's difficult to know how many supporters he has, the group's Facebook page has more than half a million likes.
"We've got to stop putting our heads in the sand and allowing this Islamic extremist cancer to grow in our country," Golding told me. "We've got to confront it head on and that's what we seek to do."
"Do you believe that a confrontation is inevitable?" I asked.
"When they're 40 percent or 50 percent of the population and they've got a huge block in parliament, I imagine there will be a civil war in this country," Golding answered.
Golding says the Christian patrols are a response to Muslim patrols, in which Islamic extremists have harassed people on the streets for behavior that they deem to be un-Islamic.
We accompanied a young radical - Abu Rumaysah - on a patrol last October on assignment for "60 Minutes."
"Ultimately, I want to see every single woman in this country covered from head to toe," Rumaysah told me. "I want to the see the hand of the thief cut. I want to see adulterers stoned to death. I want to see Sharia law in Europe and I want to see it in America as well."
Golding says no one should be allowed to claim that any neighborhood is Muslim.
"That's bang out of order and he shouldn't be doing that, he's a foreigner, he's a guest in our country," said Golding.
"They're not guests, they're British citizens," I countered. "This is their home."
"If your loyalty is to Islam then in our opinion, you're not British anymore."
The majority of British people would disagree. But the fear is that with the threat of more terrorist attacks, Britain First's popularity will continue to grow.

You've finally gone off the deep end. -- Your little posters comment box is truly bizarre.
Thanks for the morning laugh.

Why do you keep posting articles about Christians and then don't debate or converse on the merits of the piece?

I've noticed you pick apart every potential Rep candidate. That's fine, but I hardly see you doing the same for the Dims.

My take is that GATLIN is trying his best to stir up some crap, - and bait the forum members into a flame war, in which he then hopes the moderators will overreact.
That's my story, and I'm sticking to it..

Of course, that is quite clear:)
But it's like the Iranian Republican Guard knowing we have minefields in a mountian pass, yet they still walk through them. Not bright.
Actually anyone can post here with Stone as long as they keep the proper category. There are not many categories so that's pretty much a loose standard.
But all it does of the Religion tab is clutter it with a bunch of flame bait (as you mentioned) which most of us will ignore but any new comers will look at and judge the site.
So no skin off my nose if Stone is ok with having 5 religion flame bait articles DAILY cluttering his Religion and Bible Study pages.
Really, I don't mind having controversial articles in the Religion tab as long as they are of substance and not from puking atheists out to grind an axe.

I hardly see you doing the same for the Dims.
Is there a quota that I'm supposed to meet? I slam both wings of the D&R crime syndicate.
Hillary's no better than a REAL mainstream Republican. Warren is as communist as her next door neighbor, Willard M. Romney.

There you go. Much more fair and balanced:)

Good Question.
Excellent Answer:
I am not a student of the Bible. I have never read the bible. I learn much about the Bible and Religions from posters like TheFireBert, you and others.
I simply post the articles because I find them interesting and submit them for others to read so that I can continue to learn from their discussions.
This in no way should cause a problem for you, and I sincerely apologize to you if it does.

You asked an intelligent question and I gave you a respectful and truthful answer in Post #9.
I respectfully say that you are free to believe what you want to.
You have stated that you have me on bozo so you should not be reading my posts anyway.
Furthermore, If you have a problem with the articles I post....then you should use the "Thread Ignore" feature.
#11. To: Gatlin (#10)
No problem. I just discovered this site has the same ignore thread option as LP.

That's great.
Then you are happy once again....and that makes me happy.

That does come in handy at times but it also cuts down on the LOL factor! :)

Same tactic used by fifty-names from LP.

#54. To: CZ82 (#53)I figured you for a McCain fan since you live there and claim to be a Conservative, or do you just vote for the candidate with the prettiest rhetoric?
Well,sport....you figured wrong, in both instances.
I did not vote for McCain in his run for reelection as Senator. I did something that made me feel good.
I voted for his Democratic opponent.
I didn't vote for his clone to replace Kyle either. I wish Kyle had continued his career in the Senate.

I've noticed some of the sockpuppets are coming to life today.

Having to tolerate their trolling here from TOS greatly reduces my interest in posting comments or articles.

They're being overly nice and sugary sweet, wonder how long that will last?

I am fine with that, as long as they continue that way and don't bother us.

Britain is also the home of the Christian street patrols. If you don't bitch about the Muslim street patrols,STFU about the Christian street patrols.

I have no idea who that raghead is,but he sure looks like he has a major buzz going on.
