… my mother never left for church without her best Sunday cleaver tucked into her handbag;
Four people were injured and three arrested in a fight at a West Valley City Mosque on Friday that drew about 100 people leaving midday prayers. [….] The fight started with a conflict between a 26-year-old man and a juvenile, as the crowded parking lot emptied. The 26-year-old had a box cutter, and another man drew a knife to defend the juvenile, starting the fight.

I’m in agreement glasnost. I wait until they start swinging before I start with the kicking. I’ve been waiting 30 years, so far almost nobody’s got beyond giving me dirty looks. Got sized up by thugs in Mt. Vernon NY a couple times, got sworn at on the highway, guys even got out of their cars and threatened me. But no actual swinging, so no butt kicking.
In fact, I just came back from the grocery store, where NOBODY tried to kick my butt. I can’t understand it, I look all white and Conservative and everything, there should be some brave liberal soul out there to teach me a well deserved lesson. I mean, this is Ontario, right? Conservatism is illegal!
Nope. Nuthin’. Damn it. Come ON you guys, I’m getting old here. Can’t wait forever! ROC, can you do something about this for me? C’mon, be a pal!
i maintain ‘they’ can tell by your ‘walk’ if you’re ripe for the plucking….gotta lay on just a titch of the old ‘pimp roll’ to show them you’re not the least concerned as to what may be in their filthy little minds…..work on their subconscious….walk a little slower than one normally would…..whistle a happy tune like ‘dies irae’…..stuff like that.
I tell you John, nothing helps. I just keep putting that conservative redneck thang out there, none of these guys will swing on me. Sometimes I despair for the younger generation, I really do.
Oh the old ‘pimp roll’, it’s been so long… Never occurred it could be done to ‘dies irae’
Alex if you can’t see the difference then you are truly blind. If the Beulah Baptist Church of Hemaruka Alberta had a knife fight in the parking lot after the sermon the analogy would be apropos. To say that some nut bar with a gun intent on wiping out the congregation is the same simply shows your bigotry.
i wear my bigotry like a badge of honour….because MY bigotry is selective…perfectly apropos and expressed in factual terms with a tremendous amount of unassailable background dope…which confounds any unwise enough to argue the toss.
xly i look upon mesself as a wise elder(rise up before the hoary head)seeking to inform the bleating unwashed and ignorant fold of the new Assyrian wolf.
…and stuff like that see…
Joe,
Alex is a leftist, meaning he is not rational, relevant and doesn’t need facts to form an opinion.
So-called ‘right of centre’ is a poseur. From his miserable history posting on this blog, one can safely assume he is a leftist, an agitator and a troll of the highest order.
“Whoa– there are 25,000 Muslim congregants in SLC?”
What percentage do you think could pass through an airport metal detector, right this minute, without setting it off?
Phantoms sezs “Sometimes I despair for the younger generation, I really do.”
Your problem, sir, is that you do not look like a mailbox…
?!
Oh, sorry. I can assure you that the younger generation swings a mean baseball ball…
…and that my dog is not too old 🙂
Can I send them some semtex next time!

One little comment that is against your simple minded grain of thought and you losers come out in droves.
Too easy. I pulled your string Phantom and you danced like a little girl.
Big man my butt.
Pwnndddd!!!!and out
This is the diversity we pine for.
Cleaver no, but I do remember the good old days when the church parking lot was full of ½ tons with gun racks in their back windows. Gun racks full of guns. I also remember the day my dad side-slipped our beloved Country Squire into a fellow parishioner’s car in said lot during a spring blizzard. Rather than reach for his 30-30, the gentleman had his auto-body inclined son fix both the cars for free. Lessons learned: Don’t trust the winter handling of a rear wheel drive station wagon shod with all seasons, and don’t go attacking people following church. I think they are both laid out in allegorical form somewhere in Leviticus.
