Police told to respect traditions
Herald and Weekly Times ^ | 25oct05 | Liam Houlihan

POLICE are being advised to treat Muslim domestic violence cases differently out of respect for Islamic traditions and habits.

Officers are also being urged to work with Muslim leaders, who will try to keep the families together.

Women's groups are concerned the politically correct policing could give comfort to wife bashers and keep their victims in a cycle of violence.

The instructions come in a religious diversity handbook given to Victorian police officers that also recommends special treatment for suspects of Aboriginal, Hindu and Buddhist background.

Some police officers have claimed the directives hinder enforcing the law equally.

Police are told: "In incidents such as domestic violence, police need to have an understanding of the traditions, ways of life and habits of Muslims."

They are told it would be appreciated in cases of domestic violence if police consult the local Muslim religious leader who will work against "fragmenting the family unit".

Christian girls beheaded in grisly Indonesian attack...

Three teenage Christian girls were beheaded and a fourth was seriously wounded in a savage attack on Saturday by unidentified assailants in the Indonesian province of Central Sulawesi.

The girls were among a group of students from a private Christian high school who were ambushed while walking through a cocoa plantation in Poso Kota subdistrict on their way to class...

the heads of the three dead victims were found several kilometres from their bodies.

"In the holy month of Ramadan, we are again shocked by a sadistic crime in Poso that claimed the lives of three school students,"...

There you go...Islam is against the frikken law. It can bend to modernity and not the other way around.

Life cares for life...Islam loves death and destruction. Islam must die!!!

In a police station somewhere in England...

Sargeant: 'Now, if y'come across a Moo-slim settin' his Mrs. aflame with a bit of petrol, just remember the 'ome office instructions. The Moo-slims are loovly lot just like you an' me, mates. Only diff'rence is that these blokes like to rough up their Mrs. a bit before they break out the ol' weddin' tackle. Noo-thin' to see there, just move along and respect diversity* the way the guv'ners in the EU 'ave told us to.'

* Diversity; di-ver-sity; a compound word from the root words: [Div]isive, per[ver]sion and adver[sity].

Ever heard of the rule of thumb?
It was a rule that was in roman times a man could not beat their wives or children with a stick any bigger than their own thumb!
As for the police they should only beat these perps till they dont move!

Excuse me? If they want their Muslim traditions honored they should go back to their Muslim lands. Try asking for the same consideration for Christian traditions in a Muslim country and see what happens to you. They can all take a flying leap!!!
