[News] speakers corner

What you are saying is that a Muslim has attacked a Christian lady at Speakers Corner.

So I'll speak for most of NSC.

This is an appalling thing to do. We all hope that this individual is caught and heavily punished (as well as any others who may have encouraged his actions).Society should not be soft on the actions of such people. We also hope the lady recovers and is able to continue as before.

And we also hope that the conversation doesn't turn into the usual binfest of subliminal race hate and conflict.

Once a place of debate and freedom of speech has now become violent. A Christian lady refugee from turkey who regularly attends speakers corner was attacked today, how sad the last bastion of freedom of speech has descended to this. A lovely park and it was a great afternoon trip. I hope the lady is ok.

The OP doesn’t mention the word Muslim at all.

That is perhaps you jumping to conclusions - an easy conclusion to jump to, but not necessarily true..

Amazing how intolerant some people are of others views that don't agree with their own.

Glad we don't get that on here.
