Infidel world is FINALLY WAKING UP!!!!
Thanks to Bare Naked Islam for this one!
Police had to keep anti-mosque
protesters and supporters apart at an emotion-charged rally on the
Sunshine Coast today. More than 500 people – about 80% of them ‘against’
the Islamic mosque, converged on land near the Stella Maris Catholic
Church to protest the mosque plan.
Sunshine Coast Daily (h/t Kenneth N) Streets
around the protest were blocked off by police while plain clothes and
uniform police had to repeatedly warn anti-mosque protesters to tone
their comments and anger down. An equally vocal contingent of young
people defended the right of Islamic people to set up their own church,
saying Australia was a democratic country.
But protesters accused the youth of
being ‘bussed in’ from the Gold Coast with some even resorting to
insults over their university fees. The situation became repeatedly
heated as supporters of the mosque tried to convince opponents that most
Islamic people were peace loving and represented no threat to
Australia’s way of life. Supporters of the mosque sang iconic Australian
tunes, prompting outrage from the anti-mosque crowd.
Opponents, however, warned of
beheadings, the introduction of sharia law, the loss of rights for women
and the undermining of the Australian way of life. Those supporting the
mosque were told to ‘go back where you come from’ repeatedly by the
more vocal minority in the crowd.
At one point police were booed as they
ordered a protester to get down from a stage as he spoke of beheadings
and his fears over a mosque. Protesters questioned what happened to
freedom of speech in Australia. The crowd cheered as supporters lifted
the man onto their shoulders so he could continue speaking.
Some of those supporting the mosque
accused Christians of showing more hate than love while opponents said
it was their right to defend Australia’s Christian heritage. One elderly
man brought with him a Koran, challenging the young people to read it,
asking whether they really knew what was in it, or what the Islamic
faith stood for. (Thereby confirming everything the anti-mosque crowd was protesting)
