What an idiot, Fox must really love this guy.

Emerson said Birmingham, a city of one million about 100 miles northwest of London, was a "totally Muslim city where non-Muslims don't go in."

He also told Fox that in "parts of London there are actually Muslim religious police who beat and actually wound seriously anyone who doesn't dress according to Muslim religious attire."

Wow....how does Fox even let these people on the air? Twitter has exploded with #foxnewsfacts and making fun of them for being idiots.

Also, another Fox news anchor once again demonstrated her ignroance:

“That’s my question about these guys because if we know they were speaking unaccented French and they had, you know, ski masks on, do we even know what colour they were?”

“What the tone of their skin was? I mean what if they didn’t look like typical bad guys, as we define them when we think about terror groups?”

What an idiot. But I am sure the Fox viewers eat this up and love it.

Fox News - Truthiness and Entertainment for the masses, no facts needed.

There were extremists who tried to carry out Sharia practice in London; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharia_patrols

But, they were stopped,..
The Central Criminal Court heard evidence concerning incidents involving the patrol which took place in Shoreditch, Bethnal Green, and outside the East London Mosque where videos were made of members of the patrol harassing members of the public at night when the mosque was closed. The patrol targeted a heterosexual couple in Bethnal Green for holding hands, shouting at them to stop because they were in "a Muslim area". Just weeks later, the patrol picked on five friends who were drinking in the street because it was "Allah's land"; 19-year old Islamic convert Jordan Horner threatened to stab the men, while one of the patrol members shouted "kill the non-believers".

Three of the patrol members were convicted in November, and were sentenced on 6 December 2013. Jordan Horner, who uses the Islamic name Jamaal Uddin, pleaded guilty to two charges of assault and two charges of using threatening words and behaviour, was sentenced to 68 weeks imprisonment. 36-year old Ricardo MacFarlane who pleaded not guilty, was sentenced to one year for affray and two years for using threatening words and behaviour. 23-year old Royal Barnes, who was awaiting further trial regarding offensive videos about Lee Rigby and therefore could not be named at the time, pleaded guilty and received a six-month sentence for affray.

In February 2014 Horner, McFarlane and Barnes were given anti-social behaviour orders barring them from the activities that led to their conviction and from associating with Choudary.

,.. and, even countered!
In response to the "Muslim Patrols", the far-right organisation Britain First has established "Christian Patrols" in east London. The Christian Patrols ride through the area in "armoured Landrover vehicles" and have handed out literature marked with a red Christian cross. A Christian leader Rev. Alan Green, as well as a Muslim leader Dilowar Khan, have both condemned Christian and Muslim patrols.

So, something like this was attempted,.. but, it didn't stick.

Who doesn't like a good comedy network?

I venture by foxnews.com daily. Their lead story headline is always worth a laugh. Like today, 4 million europeans show up to march against terrorism and what does fox run?

"United against terror, and Obama is nowhere to be found."

LOL, turning a united stand against terror after the wake of a terrible massacre into something to bash Obama about.

I like to watch the first five minutes of Billo and InSanity just for the insane claims they makeup. The most used line on Fox News by their pundits..."Some people say/are saying"

Also not to piss of their readership they list leaders in the front row and fail to mention the black guy dead center in the picture in between PMs of Israel and Italy.

I like eating english muffins with cream cheese, it's far more desirable than worrying about whatever someone on FoxNews or NBCNews is going on about.

+1 nothing better than cream cheese on an English muffin with wild blueberry jam

I don't understand this. Obama isn't in the picture.

Don't get me wrong, it's stupid to expect him to be everywhere at once. And stupider to think his absence is an implicit endorsement of terrorists. But am I missing something else?

Not sure why who but a couple days ago I was listening to fox on Sirius and a guy also said there are no go zones in France. This is becoming one of those falsehoods that is being repeated so much it will take on a status of fact among the uninformed.

Fox uses any and all events to blame Obama. Their readership eats it up.

As near as I can tell, he thinks the black guy in the center is a stand in for Obama?? (Like, black guy! See! The caption is wrong!)

...that's it? Fox acting toward Obama the way every leftist news outlet acts towards conservative higher-ups?

I thought there was self-ownage there that I missed.

Just stop and think about the logistical nightmare involved in Obama attending!
The Secret Service need to secure the place and be able to guarantee Obama`s safety!
I would bet they Secret Service and others said it`s not worth the risk! Why?
Because perhaps others would see this as a chance to kills a world leader.....

It makes sense!!
