LONDON — British police on Wednesday arrested two people as they tried to quell anti-Islamist disorder following the brutal murder in London of a man, believed to be a soldier.

...

In the hours following the attack, around 250 supporters of the anti-Islamist English Defence League (EDL) gathered at Woolwich Arsenal train station.

The group hurled bottles and became involved in minor skirmishes with the police, but later dispersed without any arrests being reported.

EDL leader Tommy Robinson was among the crowd and explained: "They're chopping our soldiers' heads off. This is Islam. That's what we've seen today...

"Our next generation are being taught through schools that Islam is a religion of peace.

"It's not. It never has been. What you saw today is Islam," he added. "Everyone's had enough."

The Brits are definitely going to have to prohibit the presence of people who fail to practice any of the ancient Religions of Britain.

What’s the name of that big, heavy broadsword? ... Time to pull those out of mothballs and polish them up for application. Tools for the job ...

I don't know how to break this to David, but...Britain buckled a long time ago.

This certainly isn't the Britain that viewed "savages" down the barrels of smoking machine guns on every continent.

Very poor taste.

Some of us had to live through years of the IRA and its atrocities.

Especially considering that the IRA would side with the Muslims.

My family (father’s side) is from Northern Ireland and largely Catholic, and have total disdain for the IRA. The icing on the cake was the fact that the IRA had a lot of KGB ties and funding. The whole extended family hated commies.

The Brits weren't too bad with the longbow, way back when.

Some of my wife's ancestors (protestant) come from Northern Ireland. I tell the kids to wear orange to school on St. Patrick's Day and if someone pinches them to start a holy war. Luckily they haven't taken me seriously.

I was wondering when you’d show up on these threads. Nice to have some people around here who can correct misconceptions with first hand knowledge.

I saw a pretty darn powerful PVC bow recently. Looked to be easy to fabricate.
