130 Imams refuse to bury London attackers
Jump to: Newest in thread
"These vile murderers seek to divide our society and (instill) fear; we will ensure they fail. We implore everyone to unite: we are one community. In the face of such dastardly cowardice, unlike the terrorists, we must uphold love and compassion."
But we'll still hear the usual crowd pretending that terror is tolerated by Muslims. ![](/icons/s/rolleyes.gif) |

These attackers were Sunni Salafists, Sunni Islam does not really have Imams. The Imams we see wearing black or white robes and turbans are Shea Muslims. I very much doubt you would find a single Shea Imam anywhere in the world that would officiate at the funeral of a Salafist because Salafists consider all Shea to be apostates and should be put to death.

I think that is a (not so) subtlety way beyond the average Sun or Daily Mail reader.
Considering anyone with dark skin on a head covering is "one of them", I think this is a good announcement to come out.

-Matt" Luckily the Daily Mail is an award winning newspaper and anything published in it can be held to account by the Press Council. On the internet including these forums you can say anything you like and without substance and not be held to account.
Maybe if you actually read the Daily Mail and knew all of its content you would be in a better position to form an opinion.
You have simply posted a sweeping generalisation of the intellectual content of the readers of two important national newspapers .
It is difficult to see on what basis you make your conclusion or for that matter how it can be justified.
Luckily the Daily Mail has many loyal supporters and it's readers are the type of people with whom I would be more than happy to run the country. |

It's the usual shoot the messenger shit that we always get from the lefties.
They don't like what papers like the Mail, Express, Telegraph Etc print. So they howl them down and try to taint every reader as some kind of retard (read the Mirror lately LOL)
Even I baulk at some of the headlines but, as you say Pat, they are all accountable in law. So every story has to have a basis in truth. If not they will be in court.
They may give some of the stories a political slant but that is no different from the Guardian or the Mirror.
The problem with the left is that they will not accept that someone has a different point of view. |

Your point was that the left does not tolerate differences of opinion.
Are you now admitting that disagreeing with other opinions is common wherever you are on the political spectrum?

Pat, you are living in some complete alternate universe. Every other front page of the Daily Mail has a headline screaming about immigrants, or 'benefit scroungers', or general racism and hatered.
The fact you don't see it just shows how normalised these headlines have become to you. You think they are fine. That is worrying.

Pat doesnt see a problem with child abusers having free access to children as long as they agree with his politics so its no surprise hes defending the Daily Mail. |

People who read the sun, mail, mirror or guardian are equally retarded
The tabloids are to fill the uneducated masses heads with hateful lies and the guardian turns educated people into feminists
All are forms of propaganda |

So true
There isn't a media outlet which doesn't try to bend and manipulate the minds of the population
Those who boast that Mail readers are full of racial hatred or Mirror readers are full-blown communists
Sorry to say - You peeps have been sucked in the most and are as equally gullible and naive as each other

There will always be a small number of cases where newspapers will lose cases or have been provided with inaccurate information and may not have had time to check their sources thoroughly . These instances are comparatively rare . It they were common the newspaper would go bankrupt. |

I am a Daily Mail reader and always make a mental note of any court cases in which they are involved or any retractions which they are required to publish. Such events are comparatively rare. |

agree there will always be cases where they get it wrong, as i pointed out to on one of your previous profile before the Mail have a higher than 'normal' number of such cases..
even when i gave about a dozen of these you denied they were true, even saying you could not find them online when they are easily accessible using a common search engine..
The Mail has a higher number because they have an agenda of hate and division but again you wont see that..

strange logic Pat, not sure why you feel you need to mention the ethnicity of the shopkeepers..
a new slant perhaps on that old cliche, 'i am not racist, i etc etc'..?
listen you said before how good you were on doing research so try and be objective and do some on the number of times the Mail, both on line and in print have in the past 5 years paid up to settle law suits..
by the way do the shops you use also sell tobacco..?

There will always be a small number of cases where newspapers will lose cases or have been provided with inaccurate information and may not have had time to check their sources thoroughly . These instances are comparatively rare . It they were common the newspaper would go bankrupt.
agree there will always be cases where they get it wrong, as i pointed out to on one of your previous profile before the Mail have a higher than 'normal' number of such cases..
even when i gave about a dozen of these you denied they were true, even saying you could not find them online when they are easily accessible using a common search engine..
The Mail has a higher number because they have an agenda of hate and division but again you wont see that..
I am not sure what is defined as a higher number or the ratios on which you base this assumption. The fact remains that the Daily Mail is an award winning newspaper and newsagents would refuse to sell it if the content was as you suggested . I buy it in a variety of different locations and three of the newsagents , two of which I chat to regularly, are what some people may describe as of non UK origin and one is Turkish .
To date none of these newsagents have kicked me out of the shop for attempting to buy what you consider to be a newspaper with an agenda of hate and division. Maybe it is your assessment of it that needs review. If any of the newsagents from which I purchase it stop selling it , I will of course let you know .
strange logic Pat, not sure why you feel you need to mention the ethnicity of the shopkeepers..
a new slant perhaps on that old cliche, 'i am not racist, i etc etc'..?
listen you said before how good you were on doing research so try and be objective and do some on the number of times the Mail, both on line and in print have in the past 5 years paid up to settle law suits..
by the way do the shops you use also sell tobacco..?
" I would have thought that the ethnic origin of the shop keepers selling the newspaper referred to was rather crucial. On the one hand some posters on here appear to be implying that some of the content of the newspaper is unacceptable yet have difficulty accepting that the majority of newsagents selling it are members of ethnic minorities . If the newspaper was as bad as some of the posters on here attempt to portray, the newsagents concerned would simply refuse to sell it .
I cannot remember ever stating that I was good at research . What I have consistently stated is that I always refuse to refer to any links quoted by any poster on here . The logic behind this is twofold .
a. The source of the links may be inaccurate and biased and my preference would be to do my own research .
b. No one could seriously expect this site to be the source of any important information. It will attract a skewed section of the population . As the site is for entertainment only I could never see the point in posting links . For serious research I would be looking elsewhere .
I will accept what you state about the Daily Mail losing a number of court cases as being correct . Instances such as this are inevitable when tackling issues which some sectors of the population would prefer to ignore or push aside . |

The Daily Mail is a unique newspaper, its banned as a source by wikipedia because of its regular inaccuracies, its also banned in many parts of reddit for the same reason, its won the Orwellian prize for innaccuracy.
It is also by far the leader in complaints to the UKs press complaints commission. In 2013 The Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday received nearly 1,400 while the sun in 2nd place had a little over 600. In the the Mail received more complaints than the Daily Telegraph, Daily Mirror, The Guardian, The People, Metro, The Times and The Independent COMBINED.
Thats right, 7 other papers cannot match the number of complaints the Daily Mail alone gets.
But for readers of the daily mail its not about accurate journalism, its about having their narrow minded views justified. |

I would have thought that the only complaints that mattered would be those that were considered to be valid and where the press council ruled against the newspaper concerned . Anyone can lodge a complaint for any reason and we would need to know the motivation for someone raising a complaint . Maybe someone with a grudge or too much spare time on their hands. |

Well lets look at those figures:
In a report to the commons using PCC figures from 2011 to 2013 The Mail leads in not only number of complaints but also complaints upheld and breaches of the editors code. In fact it was over 250% in both cases to the 2nd place (the sun in both categories).
In fact the Mail had more complaints upheld than Telegraph, Mirror, Times, Guardian, Daily Record, Standard, Independent, Metro, People, Scotsman, Herald and Observer COMBINED and with room to spare.
So on the numbers that you said mattered the Mail is far and away the worst offender. If it wasnt for the Sun it would have a worse track record than every other major and mid level paper combined in the country.
To save you some effort Ive written your reply:
"These numbers completely contradict my position and as such I will ignore them. I will say I will do my own research but wont actually do it and certainly wont post anything. Because in order to do that there would have to be something that disagreed with cold,hard numbers and we all know that wont happen. Instead I will ignore the facts, refuse to accept reality and will instead continue to read the Mail and pretend it is not an innaccurate, discredited source of information because it tells me my backward views are correct and that makes me feel good about myself."
Hope that helps. ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

In my opinion the very low level of upheld complaints can only prove what an excellent job the Press do and how accurate they are . I prefer to look at people's or organisations positive achievements and avoid criticising them. Interestingly, the Guardian is not regulated by IPSO. |
