There are other variables you're not taking into consideration (for example, illnesses derived from the marriage of cousins, so normal inside Pakistanis, that have a very widespread effect). <br /><br />I don't think this policy is aimed at Muslim gangs. It's just aimed at any group of persons who is deemed extremelly dangerous. Prisons are overcrowded and prison guards are scarce, so they can't confront the menace of people who are united and are really dangerous with friends in the outside who can also blackmail or hurt the guards or their families on the outside.<br /><br />The difference with other gangs (for example, Mob gangs) are that in those cases perhaps there are <i>arrepentidos</i> which are somewhat uncomfortable or tired of obeying some kind of sadistic violent type. Islamist gangs have a "plus": they are sustained thanks to the the after life and its awards for Muslims (in this case). So the cohesion withing the group is much greater than in any other gang. That's why perhaps this "policy" benefits them more than other gangs.<br /><br />I don't know if I am making myself understood too. Hope I am... :O)Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16401194828470084358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349436927283734572.post-82784406228337406912010-03-23T17:23:45.234-07:002010-03-23T17:23:45.234-07:00I think I'm lost. :)

Superimposed on this is the flight of native Brits <i>from</i> the UK. Then, there is the birthrate you mention: the new immigrants have 4 children per female (1-4 females per male is a "family unit"), while the Brits have less than 2 children per family. Essentially, the British population is being replaced by "Asians" (= Muslims).<br /><br />Within this context, the prison administration is permitting and at time facilitating the forced conversion of inmates to Islam. Perhaps the prison administration is wimpy, and permits any prison gang to do whatever it wants, but the articles I have seen seem to indicate it is the Muslim gangs that benefit from this wimpy policy.<br /><br />I think we are saying the same thing (?), but I'm perhaps not making it very clear.<br /><br />:)Early Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02809034506804521618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349436927283734572.post-68778273028332016452010-03-23T15:37:56.548-07:002010-03-23T15:37:56.548-07:00No, because there is fear of being labelled as rac...No, because there is fear of being labelled as racists or Islamophobes. The problem now is of publicity yet: an "aboriginal" non-Muslim English can't say he is being treated in a racist/Islamophobic way, someone from other background can. I don't know in the future, of course, when the difference in birth rates will be more important.<br /><br />This has nothing to do with race and much with the ideology of the individual, whatever aboriginal or not.Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16401194828470084358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349436927283734572.post-37756504220443004102010-03-23T15:26:13.182-07:002010-03-23T15:26:13.182-07:00"This is a problem ... of not confronting the...<i>"This is a problem ... of not confronting the problem the same way as if they weren't Muslims."</i><br /><br />Because the indigenous population is being replaced, and preferential treatment is being given to the new masters?Early Lighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02809034506804521618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349436927283734572.post-88704507808555387012010-03-23T04:30:20.213-07:002010-03-23T04:30:20.213-07:00I don't think this is a problem about indigeno...I don't think this is a problem about indigenous population vs foreigners. This is a problem of not enforcing the law inside the prisons, of not confronting the problem the same way as if they weren't Muslims.<br /><br />Thanks for the link.Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16401194828470084358noreply@blogger.com
