Right-wing journalist Lauren Southern denied entry to UK, over criticism of Islam

Canadian right-wing journalist and activist Lauren Southern was barred from entering the United Kingdom on Monday, purportedly over a poster she distributed about Islam in February -- making her the latest international right-wing figure to be denied entry to the U.K. after criticizing the religion.

Here is one of the flyers she handed out which caused the controversy (Done as a social experiment).

If there's one thing I don't understand about some progressives, it's the admiration they have for Islam.

@Johnny-n-Roger: What I understand even less is the fact that parts of England and Wales are in their most violent period in over a decade, and law enforcement resources continue to be cut.

Cool beans.

Even Islamic countries feel threatened by western values.

Western values just don't align with Islamic culture. At all.

Lauren Southern is an idiot

Hmm, good for her.

Not sure if anyone cares except a few at Fox News.

People who have as strong a hatred towards western culture as her, propably shouldn't be accepted into those countries to spread their hate.

Also lol at calling her a journalist and activist. She's an idiot who posts hate filled rants on youtube.

Aww what a shame. Too bad, so sad.

What's wrong with hating Islam? It's anti-woman and gay.

As somebody who believes in gay rights, I'm opposed to it.

He said "hatred towards western culture". What a joke. He's a believer in hate speech.

There are close to thirty million Muslims living in Western countries, but yeah, completely incompatible with western culture.

So is Christianity.

That's still a lot of radical beliefs.

Oh, so this isn't an onion piece?

Really? Because they seem to be getting along just fine.

Whataboutism

Are you opposed to Christianity as well then though?

It's absolutely not whataboutism. I'm trying to show that you're not, in fact, motivated by principles of respect for women and homosexuals but rather by an irrational hatred of Islam based on the fact that you single out Islam for scorn while ignoring the misogyny and homophobia in other religions like Christianity and Judaism.

@Johnny-n-Roger: so if a Muslim was applying for a visa to come to the UK solely to preach about how horrible Britian is and how people should hate christians, do you think their visa should be accepted?

I mean according to politifact, if we take the entire Muslim population throughout the world, 18% of them are radical meaning they want the death of western civilization- the reason this is so alarming is because this encompass roughly 200 million people. Other people have argued that 18% is far too low and that the number is realistically closer to 25%, but either way it isn't good.

A specified reason was never given.

lol..

that would require one to listen and be honest about the subject matter so I doubt you will ever get your answer..just sayin

She tried stopping a ship to help refugees on make-shift rafts... She's scum.

As for the picture... I don't know. There have been pictures like that but with the word "God" instead. With that being said though, considering it's from her, it's probably done to incite rather than actually be inclusive.

So... you hate Muslims?

I think he's saying he hates the religion. There are many people who dislike christianity because they feel it is antigay and oppressive to some groups. Same line of thought. I think he means he hates the ideology.

"A ship to help refugees". Another way to word that is "A human trafficking vessel".

"you hate muslims"? He said he hates Islam. Atheists say they hate religions all the time. Cry more.

Refugees and migrants leaving war-torn Libya are often packed onto small, barely seaworthy vessels by people smugglers. The smugglers often abandon the boats, without fuel, in international waters.

Next time read before you post to make sure you're not supporting your opponents argument. And then "no need to get offended" after you were triggered because someone said they hated a religion. Your mental gymnastics aren't substitute for rational thought. What a gem we have here.

This is your statement:

"A ship to help refugees". Another way to word that is "A human trafficking vessel".

in response to my statement:

"She tried stopping a ship to help refugees on make-shift rafts... She's scum."

Now, the ship that is helping refugees from those make-shift rafts is the search and rescue boat. However, in your previous statement, you referred it as a "human trafficking vessel..."

Are you okay? Because you're clearly in the wrong.

The religion, not the people.

The ban appears justified, they literally put human lives at risk:

That is down right dangerous.

They were rescue boats.

You're reaching.

Well that's OK, seeing as how people with a DUI can't go to Canada. I mean, really Canada?

WTF she is a blonde babe. Somebody wants to be the next Tomi, I guess.
