This head scarf women looks like stone age people.

wow, I saw the video and I kinda liked it because it showed perspectives from both sides, but then I read some of the comments; Amazing, A mazing that people can speak in such a way. This just shows you that we are living in those times, which indicates to us that the last and final warner about those times has come. In any case, education is needed somewhere. SUBHANALLAH

I hearn an imam mention the other day a decade and a half ago hed walk down the street with his wife in a niqab and not a stare. Now that the likes of harper have instilled unecessary fear in people;s hearts bc as a politician people like harper know the general population is like sheep, the imam mentions that now he gets talked about walking around with his wife...same people that are minding their business in life but different world. I wish the worst for people like harper and bush etc....

more white guilt propaganda bullshit. Im not a racist so don't brand me one, what I want is true equality which means that I'm not going to pander to minorities for the sole reason that they are minorities. The incessant complaining about stereotypes towards blacks is ridiculous, all races have their own stereotypes. If someone saw a well dressed black person heading into an office building they wouldnt think twice but if someone saw a young black kid dressed like a gangster,smoking dope and acting shady theyre going to think suspiciously of you and there is nothing wrong with that. stop making it about race when it has a lot more to do with how you behave and act. The drive to get more black people in positions over authority for the sake of diversity is itself racist, the best person for the job is the person who should be in office if 8/10 judges are white and they are in fact the best people for the job then their should be no desire to change such things, we need to evaluate the character of a person and not their race. So much bullshit in this video it would take me hours to pick it apart.

I can understand how these countries allow women to cover their face like that? \n\nYou don't have a right to do whatever you want, it is limited with rights of other people, in this case my right to be able to identify a person who was participating in/witnessing a crime or an accident or whatever. If you are on public grounds you have no right to conceal your identity and covering face does exactly that. \n\nI personally think their religion is oppressing women and that this is not really a choice for them as they fear hell, or their family abandoning them or worse, but regardless of that, their religious freedom stops where my, and rights of other people begin.

As a Muslim living in Canada, I don't see the harm in a woman wanting to cover herself, I wear the head scarf myself, but in my opinions I don't feel the need to cover myself to prove I am more modest or a better Muslim.  I believe everyone has free will and has the right in this Country to dress the way that the law has allowed them to.  No one has the right to tell someone how to dress, not even the Prime Minister himself.  Telling a woman what she can and cannot wear is oppression.  I truly believe that if Muslims want to live in Western civilization, then they should refrain from covering their faces because the face is our identity and People have the right to know who you are and what your face looks like.  You cannot vote with a covered face, you cannot cover your face in a passport photo, you cannot cover your face for your driver's licence etc... I am a Muslim woman and I say this.  It truly is a shame how the media is portraying Islam and the Muslim people as a whole, and it truly is a shame that Canadians have become so ignorant.  I see more ignorance and racism in Canada than I do in America and 9/11 took place in America.  If you want to know about Islam, learn about Islam from a Muslim, a Library, google Islam, or offer to spend a few days with a Muslim family for research to get a better understanding of Islam and Muslims.  As a Muslim myself I can understand the hatred and the ignorance because we act according to how we were taught and raised, and yes we have many extremists claiming to follow the Islamic faith.  These extremists are not only hurting Western civilization, but they are also hurting the peaceful moderate Muslims that value their rights and freedoms as Canadians.  I do not appreciate ISIS hijacking my religion, I do not appreciate Hamas or Hezballah hijacking my Religion because I am a very accepting person and a very open minded Muslim and to be defined by media as a problem or a terrorist is very hurtful and a shame.

Stephen Harper is the best PM this country has ever had. Muslims are a people that should be a cause of concern. Its is not a religion of peace. The women say its their choice to wear face coverings. that is a lie. Their fathers or husbands force this on them. Best thing for any western society is to send them all back to the mideast. They do not belong here. They dont like us and we do NOT like them.

You people going Europe like refuge and you ask food. Wean you get food and passport you ask sharia.

Shouldn't people be more concerned with why people are moving away? I don't think it's a simple matter of not liking the view, but that they don't feel safe in their own home towns.

if you dont want to be discriminated against . then stop killing people .stop treating women like shit and . dress normal dont play the victim card typical muslim

And people act like Canada is some perfect place.

Blacks arent the problem in canada as much as it is in the US. There was no KKK here. The people that do deserve the knowledge is the Aboriginals. The government treated them bad and so did the churches. They are what the Canadian government should be addressing and not so much the blacks as they are just as equal as a white man in Canada now. Jobs for the government 1 year have to hire more minorities then another year females and what not. I cant speak for what it is like in the US but where I live blacks are treated the same as whites. There are some arabs that think they are the gangsters and hate white peopl for ni reason. I asked them why they hates whites so much and they said its because they are pussys. That aint no damn reason. If you disagree please enlighten me with your knowledge. And if you live in the US dont comment saying you know more because i doubt you were even taught a single thing about canada in school. But if you do know something please teach me.

I am an ex-muslim and I live in Turkey. Here is not Middle East but some people want to turn here to Middle East. They want sharia and they are not weak. I wanna get the fuck out of here and live in place with respectful people like Canada.

looks like my country Germany in the Year 1933-1945  \nMuslim Patrol is the same like Hitlers  SS   they punished german people when they not do what they want  (   the same rassist ideology against jews and other religion ...........why you nit kick them ass its your country ???? all people who are against britain you must kick into desert back you cannot live in freedom with your enemys who call sharia or UK go to hell

why don't the people in London take a stand and put these assholes in their place or get red of them ? you have my blessings and hell I'm Saudi \n\nif you don't like the rules of their country just fuck off back to wherever you came from\n\nthese hypocrites would go crazy if someone did this protest in their country as if someone grabbed their pussies hard, but in their mind it's ok to do it in another country ? \n\nno one is forcing them to stay, no one is making them drink wine by force or smoke a J\n\nI'm beginning to think these pricks are doing this not for a false hope of Jihad or religion, but just to make life hard for us normal people who go to London to enjoy it, just to make our lives miserable as theirs  

Not all muslims are the same, same like we think of all other people.\nThey have treated us bad but it doesn't mean we muslims do the same.\n\nWesteners invaded our land, destroyed our homes, stole all resources but yet we still want to live beside westeners with peace and love. We think people are not the problem but goverments are.\n\nThese people are misguided by Anjem Choudary. \n

there is no need to attack people in the street and tell non-islamics to go to hell but more and more are doing it. if there were more like you in the world i'm sure things would be different \n

Hi, I appreciate your comment. Multicultularism doesn't work. People need common ground, common goals and values. Muslims are so different and constantly clash with others.\nI travel a lot for my work and have been to Latin America many times. Colombia is the country I like the most in the region.

This is truly disgusting to watch. Millions died to protect this country and the cancer from within will change it forever. I feel sorry for the people that come to this country and embrace the way of life. They get shit thrown at them because of backward cunts like these in the video. The sooner Islam is squashed in this country the better before it gets out of control.

There is only one god worthy of worshiping. He is the most merciful, generous, all-knowing and all-wise. If you where to ask him for forgiveness, not associate him with anything else, praise and thank him with sincerity, he will forgive you. This life is like a journey, your born, married, have a baby, die. People have been there and done that. Ask your self the true reason of your existence (is it to have a big house, car...)Worship god ALONE and seek refuge with him. He is truly unique. Peace!

The quran is the final revelation after Jesus that you people wanted to kill, but then praise. Why do you pray for a man like you ... or Mary? why not pray for the one who created everything. You pray for things like the spirit and so on and so on. The bible is man maid and a complete controversial book that is corrupted. Its always falsified and played with. Jesus prayed, fasted and acted just like Muhammad (pbuh) even in the bible.

I agree with you a 100%. I'm a muslim and you need to understand that not all of us are like that. The media is reporting this story that involved ''a hand full'' of idiots calling them self muslim disturbing people. This is not islam. The land does not belong to anybody so there is no way of making a revolution against another social group. We have to learn to coexist in this unique planet. Your proposal is quite weird ... its not solving anything. Thank god your not the gov lool ;p

the have not its just what these mu slims want you to believe anything goes for Islam my friend, yeah those people in those planes where Arab/mu slims, there is proof of that in fact that's a fact.\nBut the real question you should be asking yourself is, was the government of the USA working with these Islamic extremist? think about it.....its almost like there is a secret agenda

How dose this video has more dislikes then likes???\nThey are not bigoted, the distinguishes between good moderate Muslims and extremest, and yet people dis like it? Why?\nIt tells the truth in a very unbiased way.

No see they wouldn't work for them. Because if they went to one of those shit holes then there goes their benefits, free housing, education and healthcare. Islam is a cancer that has been in this country for long enough. \n\nThey know we're a soft touch and they can get away with whatever they like. The sad thing is the people in power who can put an end to all this bullshit and crack down harder on this people won't do anything because they're terrified of the race being pulled out.

Within the next few years London will become an Islamic city-state in England, maybe then people will begin to open their eyes and realise groups like the EDL have been speaking the truth all along.

I am not impressed mate. I also know a few foregn words. Do you think that people will think you are clever? I actually think you are stupid and I bet you are not employed. You would not be ranting this shit if you had a job. Thats a thing about muslims, they only rant like this if they are not earning.

As a moderate Brit, I fail to see how anyone with any brain cells can condemn a whole race of people like this. You are idiots to tar everyone with the same brush, and this is exactly how propaganda creates wars against innocent ordinary people,which, none of you are. You are a den of snakes.

My views are not fascist! I hate an entire religion and believe them to be a drain on society and stereotype them all to be violent! I also have strict views on border control! But my views aren't right wing in the slightest! I'm not denying being right wing because I heard cruel people like Hitler and Mussolini were fascists and I don't want my views to be compared to theirs!\nWell, I guess it's all relative, you know, you're an ass-licking left-wing compared to the holocaust supporters! :P

why are people liking this?

Who do they think they are!? They cant just wonder on the streets and starts telling others what to do because guess what you're not them and they're not you so mind your own self and stop worrying about others. Mind your own god damn business as simple as that! Law is law no matter what if you like it or not. This people are really messed up in the brain to tell you the truth!

these so called 'muslims patrol' should respect other people in London, imagine if someone doing a thing like this in their country???? what??? real England citizens aren't allowed in their streets but these 'patrol bitches' can go anywhere in London??? isnt it 'haram' for these patrol by just getting out of their own streets and seeing others with short skirts, drinking alcohol and all??? what a douche patrol...

PEOPLE YOU ARE SICK !! DONT BE RACIST! YOU ARE LIKE A NAZI seriously stop it!

Law and order needs to be obtained, Allah does the ultimate job. I'm just doing my bit in this short stay on this planet to do good.\n\nI was straight from birth my friend just like most respectful people.

No because prisons DO NOT teach CRIMINALS a lesson, many prisoners re commit crimes over and OVER! The best solution for attricious crimes like adultery, should be death. It is very disrespectful and needs to be punished - in order for it not to occur.\n\nI admit crimes like theft, people should not be killed... but a greater punishment for the evil acts needs to be installed. Sharia will provide this.\n\nIt's not an excuse to

Not atrocious at all , it is true punishment! Not disrescptul either\n\nIslam is the only peaceful religion my friend, it is the US and the UK who are the real atrocious ones. Stand up for what is right. \n\nWomen are treated like angels my friend, do not listen to the lies we are good people..\n\nCan you fuck off now please? I think my point has been made. you have no evidencce

Britain is not Taliban, stop forcing the laws that are Shariya in origin. The so called Muslim leaders, on news seem appalled, but in real, I am sure they are supporting and funding these jobless Muslim.\n\nPolice and Military actions should be take against illegals like these, heck police should also associate with Neo Nazi's and Skin Heads with the to drive these people out.\nI am an Indian who has lived in the UK. While my community of Hindus and Sikhs have assimilated into the British culture..

you were in the uk too, its not all bad its just that i dont like certain racist people in my school. i might want to leave the uk i didnt come here by choice my father brought me when i was two or three after my mother passed away in bangladesh. \nyoure greek? because i always had a fascination of greece its history philosophy and pagan mythology

I'm fucking sick of these people\nIt's funny how we don't have these kind of problem's say with the Chinese or the other ethnicites\nIt's Muslims causing all the fucking problems\nThere beliefs are far to extreme to integrate in any kind of community\nThe video proves my point\nI like to live in a cosmopolitan country, but when I here Muslims winging about this country, I think to myself, If you hate it so much, why the fuck are you here\n

As for multiculturalism, is a political word and means what ever politicians want it to at the time. I believe in humanity, I grew up in Manchester and lived their until my forties. Now having lived all over the world I can honestly say that all people are pretty much the same. We all want the same things and most people are decent. The racists I have come across are always pretty thick and usually being manipulated by some group leader who just like religious leaders. just want power. .

I have to work around these areas and see this every day. These asian muslim gangs are targeting British people and trying to make their life as uncomfortable as possible. THEY ARE USING OUR FREEDOMS TO ENFORCE THEIR RELIGION/CULTURE. \nSINCE DEC 2012 - BRITISH ARE NOW A MINORITY IN LONDON. THE REMAINDER ARE DEALING WITH THIS HARASSMENT DAILY!\n\nUKIP ALL the way ppl.............. before the rest of our country ends like this!\n

I have a simple question to you but i seriously doubt you would be able to understand since it looks like you have been brainwashed and possibly molested in your madarsa. \nCan sharia law be established in an Non-Islamic Country? \nIf you want to chop peoples hand off and go around threatening people in the streets then why not movie to Saudi? \nDoes UK not give more rights to Muslims then the so called majority Muslim countries does to its citizens?\nFYI: We don't deny the Ahadith.

Well i was asking because I have read your Quran a few times\n\nThe thing about the Quran is, its a list of do's and don'ts, (a book of laws). The laws are listed, and what people don't realise is that Islam is actually a form of government, it is politics, law and order all rolled into one religion.\n\nFor this reason you can compare Islam to other forms of governance like Communism and Democracy.\n\nHowever secular muslims like Attaturks followers reject most clause's in Islam.\n\n

Deport the dogs. \nA religion like Islam only leads to negative effects for their followers and anything near it. No other religion in 2013 inspires bloody idiots to spread their lunacy or explode while attacking the people that declined their offer to stop thinking as well.\nPerhaps a chin full of pubic hair makes one lose a sense of self reflection and ability to understand humor.

im a Muslim and im completely against this. these so called Muslims have no right what so ever to tell people what to do or what to wear. These guys act like Scholars ... please go and learn the deen 1st and how about perfecting the shariah law in Muslims countries before coming to UK ( IN MY EYES A CHRISTIAN COUNTRY) Im all for shariah law but we need to concentrate the shariah laws in our countries ( Pakistani , Somali , Iran , Iraq , Afghanistan etc...

Continue:\n\nLess than 2 % muslim are regarded as peace loving people. (USA, Australia, Canada, China, Italy & Norway.\n\nMuslim between 2 to 5% in any country start recruiting & converting people from Jail & street gangs. i.e. Denmark, Germany, UK, Spain & Thailand.\n\nMuslim 5% and on will start using excessive influence on non-muslim by social pressure like Halal Food, Muslim schools etc. happening in France, Philippines, Sweden, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Trinidad & Tobago\n

I would like to say to everyone that these groups do NOT represent Islam at all. These people act according to their desires and should be locked up in prison if they do not change their behaviour. In a Muslim country they would be jailed. \n\nI am a Muslim and I am aginst alchohol and other things which Islam forbids but the way these people are going about in society is not the Islamic way in dealing with such things. \n \nIslam against these extremists visit islamagainstextremism. com

the problem is that the muslims who are acting like villians in europe are mostly uneducated and they dont understand the religion either. the unemploymenet, unablity to integrate into the society and maybe descrimination they suffer, they find religion as a tool to express their existance and sometimes their anger. it is not the religion, but the people who are creating problems.

Lol, that why we convert all the Christians and the Jews in Iran? Only idiots who don't understand the Quran or Christians seeking to sabotage European-Muslim relations would do this, especially at a time like this, wake up people...

Trying to say that all Muslims are like the ones in the video when Muslims from your average Joe to religious leaders have condemned their actions is like saying grown EDL men beating up little Pakistani school girls is representative of the entire white population. Or that the rape and abuse of children by soldiers of XYZ army in Iraq/Afghanistan is representative of the that entire army. You have ignorant people in all religions, nations and organizations. Anyone who says otherwise is ignorant
