Blimey. Terrorists in Burnley!

Wow, for a place that doesn't get mentioned much (except for when the team beat Arsenal), was rather surprised to hear it as the second news story on the BBC News channel. Seems they were supposed to be part of an aid convoy heading for Gaza, didn't even manage to get off the M65.

Burnley,Blackburn all round that area,full of asians.I would think that the authorities keep a close eye on that part of Lancashire as it could be a hot bed for extremist views and teachings in mosques.

Sorry,trying not to sound "racist".I should have put raghead so as to be clear

[FarleyRusk]

Now you're blaming the sikhs!

[smifffymoto]

I said ragheads not neatley wrapped turban heads.Any way you're in Holland,proper racists over there(not saying you/I are racist or hold any racist leanings or affiliations.All postings previous to this have been for comedy effect) This shouldn't get locked with that disclaimer;)

More than 100 vehicles are taking more than £1m worth of aid, including trucks full of medicines, tools, clothes, blankets and shoe boxes as well as gifts for children.

I think it was a miscommunication.

Delivery guy "we are preparing the convoy Ahmed, what do you need?"
Ahemd "Drugs, blankets, food, toys, .....that should do it"
Delivery guy "You sure, that's it?"
Ahmed "You know what, we could use some boxes to put these jews in..."

And how, pray tell, would you suggest that their guilt be proven, prior to charging them?

Erm, add that its BNP councillors, high teenage pregnancies, high drug use, high unemployment, low eduction levels, it being rough as, depressed ever since the factory work moved out, erm I am sure there is much more Burnley is 'famous' for.

The entire area is depressing including both the poor rotten Asian areas but also the scum infested white areas.
