"Asian" rape gangs
Reply #38 - March 07, 2013, 12:06 PM
I live in Bradford and today's headlines are once again pointing to two Pakistani heritage men jailed for a combined 36 years for travelling to nearby Keighley and grooming under age girls and raping them.
We hear about these types of stories, usually involving Pakistani heritage men, frequently within the city's parameters.
In my view describing these gangs as Asian gangs offers an unfair sweeping generalization upon the entire Asian community, which in Bradford consists of Pakistani Muslims, Indian heritage Sikh's and Hindus.
Simply put, in respect of Asian men in Northern England committing these kinds of crimes, the trend seems to point to the Pakistani community. And compelling the media to describe these gangs as 'Muslim gangs', is equally unfair. Islam has little do with the motivation behind sociopathic Pakistani heritage men acting in gangs raping and molesting under age girls.
Pakistani's already have a bad image throughout Yorkshire. And this fact is hardly at the behest of any knuckle dragging BNP candidate. Whilst the rest of the city gets on, marries one another, creating long lasting inter racial relationships and friendships, Pakistani's contained within the city's core - happily blissfully ignorant of anything non-Pakistani, with a strong sense of community, holding up two fingers to assimilation, cooperation, and benefiting from the nation's fear of being smacked with the unshakable tags of racism, Islamaphobia et al.
Bradford's Pakistani's will take to the streets to protest Rusdie, BNP, EDL, and any anti Islamic vitriol, but will do nothing to acknowledge or curtail their reputation for socio pathic tendencies, lack of assimilation, racism, pedo gangs, drug gangs, grand theft auto gangs, creating the highest insurance premiums in the country because of their pin pointed communities decision to evade the legal way in virtually every form.
Like it or lump it, an immigrant Pakistani community that does little to fully assimilate into its adopted country, voluntarily segregating itself from the native 'Britishers', whilst over representing itself in many crime statistics, all wrapped up with an incredibly ugly image nationwide of crime, fraud, gang rape, racism, gangs, etc, all propped up by the local community leaders who do absolutely nothing in condemning their community members - you cannot blame the local people white, sikh, black, hindu etc, for viewing this community with a sense of derision.
Pakistani's are in constant demand to be treated as an almost separate entity and default community. We have seen many examples of this in Bradford. The Pakistani community this, community that. Community leaders more than happy to take centre stage. There is no other community in Bradford that demands special recognition. However when it comes to crime and the modern day reputation associated justifiably with certain members of their community; they do not wish to be described or judged as a community. 'We're all the same. No we're not.
You cannot have it both ways. They are either a separate community intent on defending their right to be seen as such, or they're not. When grooming figures in the north point toward a trend amongst Pakistani heritage men, coincidentally we are encouraged no longer to view them as a community block.
Never associate Bradford Murpuri Pakistani's with the decent Muslims, and never associate these people with the Sikh's and Hindu's. They should be described for what they are - Pakistani's.
