    Yeah common homophobic attacks by Muslims who are notoriously way more active with their homophobia than any other group...

    I'll wager on it being a Muslim attacker.

    My question is, why is this being tolerated? Would we tolerate it from Christians?

    Your wager is based on prejudice, nothing more.

    To me, the attack sounds more like drunken louts. They wanted the women to kiss - to put on a show. That doesn't sound like Muslims, who would find that offensive. Then they stole their belongings. Again, doesn't sound like a religion-based attack.

    And who is tolerating anything? The mayor put out at statement condemning the attack and police are looking for suspects.

    It pays to get a bit of information. But then, information might undermine your preconceived ideas, so perhaps that is why you dislike facts.

    Nazism breeds ignorance, hate and violence. It's a totalitarian ideology.
    We used to fight them on the beaches.

    Extremism exists in all cultures, in all groups. Simply because the name and focus changes, does not mean the ideals are any different or more acceptable.

    I think you are right

    If the kids were white the politically correct media would have said so

    That leaves people of color as the likely suspects

    But why is this an international news story?

    Because the victims are a liberal pet minority that gets special treatment

    What ethnic group are the attackers? Has that been made public?

    My great-grandfather was from London, so I know the city well (just kidding).

    I don’t know what ethnic group they are. Based on the information available, it doesn’t seem to be motivated by religion, but that is the conclusion you immediately jumped to. Based on your prejudices. Nothing more.

    The news media has an obligation to report who, what, when, where, and how, all objectively.

    They don't do that a lot these days, and most people have lost confidence in them.

    They are withholding essential information.

    No, the most likely suspects are those with similar beliefs as yours

    5 teens have been arrested and charged from the age of 15 to 18 years old. The police are not looking for anyone else, what information is essential and why?

    Who, and What was their motivation. Were they Muslims, Christians, Nones, Nihilists, Nazi's, or whatever?

    Then you can perhaps know Why they did it. People have a right to know this.

    We need a Paul Harvey to give us the rest of the story.

    They have not been found guilty yet, so how do we have a right to know anything?

    Probably why Muslims were allied with the Nazis, two Jew-hating peas in a pod.

    Incredible, not only were the Nazis Christians but those Jew hating Christian outnumbered the few Muslims by about 10,000 to 1. How can you say such things when you know the truth.

    Far more Muslims were part of the allied. While we all know,... the nazi's were and still are mostly White and Christian.

    Well the perps are teenagers, not drunken - well wait, there's not much difference between a teenager and a drunken lout. Never mind. And you might have a point; real Muslims would have tossed the couple off a rooftop instead.

    They already caught the suspects and they've been released on bail.

    Really, a few questions. What teachings of Jesus was Hitler following? Why did 700 clergy die in the death camps? Why do we have lots of recorded Christian-hating Hitler statements that sound like you guys? Why did Hitler say his final goal after settling the 'Jewish question' was to go after the church? Why did hundreds of thousands of Christians die to defeat Hitler?

    See this article from the Washington Post: https://www.washingtonpost.com/hist...thed-christianity-too/?utm_term=.c3b2a005e067

    Some of Hitler's negative comments on Christianity are almost verbatim the same as we hear on this forum from atheists.

    A representative sample:

    "The dogma of Christianity gets worn away before the advances of science ... Gradually the myths crumble. All that is left to prove that nature there is no frontier between the organic and inorganic. When understanding of the universe has become widespread, when the majority of men know that the stars are not sources of light, but worlds, perhaps inhabited worlds like ours, then the Christian doctrine will be convicted of absurdity."
