Hello you. Long time no.

Do you know what, I would indeed struggle to compile a chronological list of attacks that I'm referring to as they have popped up on social media as well as mainstream journalism over the last few years. Lots are from people on facebook back home pointing out events, locally or nationally. Most of the local stuff doesn't even make the local rag. So, actually. No. I can't show you "a rise" in attacks. Also I didn't use use the sensationalist term "Massive surge". Nor did I actually say "attacks like this". So in one small para, you've misquoted or made stuff up to aid your argument. You journos can't help yourself can you?

I know that you don't dispute that there are attacks. Who would? They happen. Possibly far more often than people realise.

Things in the UK have to be addressed and people need to start talking.

Apologies if I came across patronising mintball, I was actually being polite. And apologies for typing in something quickly without thinking. You can't help yourself to feel superior can you? To belittle others. This does present you, who is obviously bright, as arrogant on occasion. There's really no need to be like that minty.

I personally, don't see this as a terrorist attack. It's appears to a hate crime, born from religion.

So first of all, you didn't choose to state, without any evidence whatsoever, on a thread about a specific type of particularly brutal murder, that such violence was rising.

Indeed, you responded to Dave O saying it was probably two random nutters by saying:



(Original post here, with the post you were responding to directly above it)

So either you're posting about something different, having forgotten the context, or you're not.

Now you claiming that you didn't post what you quite clearly did.

And you're also claiming that this rise in violent jihadist/Islamic attacks (unless you're talking about something else, in which case you need to make that clear) has barely been reported by a media, much of which would just love to report such things. This claim that 'things' (what things?) are being "ignored" is all smoke and mirrors.



Yes: we get it. You're intent on this "more often than people realise". Nod, nod, wink wink, eh? Then produce some evidence instead of trying to pretend that your speculation and hints and suggestions are the same thing. We hardly have a mainstream media in the UK that is dominated by those who would hide such attacks, so it should be easy enough to find.



Well, indeed. But it's hardly helped by someone asserting that, in effect, they've heard on the gravevine some rumours about an increase in such attacks – yet cannot produce a shred of evidence to back up that claim.

And I don't disagree that 'something should be done' – I think that such things, that are on record, as high unemployment, particularly among young people, do not help. But I suspect that wasn't the sort of thing that you were meaning.



Irony alert.
