Christians in Sydney, Australia, are being advised to hide their crosses Login/Join

Christians in Sydney, Australia, are being advised to hide their crosses after an Arabic-speaking gang shouting “F*** Jesus!” attacked a couple on a train while transport officers looked on from a “safe space” and did nothing.
The Sydney-based Daily Telegraph – a News Corp outlet unrelated to the Telegraph Media Group newspaper of the same name – reports the couple were attacked while riding the train through “Muslim enclaves” in south-west Sydney.

Mike, who asked for his surname to be withheld for fear he might be targeted, said that four men of Middle Eastern appearance ripped his cross from his neck, stomped on it, and rained kicks and punches on his face, back, and shoulders. Two women attacked his girlfriend when she tried to protect him.

Five uniformed transport officers watched the attack take place but failed to intervene, Mike claimed, leaving the police to meet the train at a later station.

“I was born in Australia of Greek heritage,” Mike told the Telegraph. “I’ve always worn my cross. For [them] to rip it off and step on it has to be a religious crime … It’s not on to feel unsafe in your own country.”

Mike went to Greek community leader and former Sutherland Shire Council deputy mayor Reverend George Capsis, who believes Christians in Sydney face growing persecution at the hands of Muslim gangs, about the attack.

“This is not an isolated incident,” said Rev Capsis, who explained that Mike was the fourth Christian to have come to him about a religiously-motivated attack in just the last six months.

“There are gangs of these young fellows of Muslim background who have been harassing people they identify as Christian … You don’t hear about it because no one’s reporting it.”

Like Mike, the three previous victims who went to Rev Capsis said they were assaulted around public transport in the south-west of the city.

“It’s like their territory,” he said. “They don’t want Christians or other types of infidels there.”

The minister believes that the problem has to be “nipped in the bud” but, in the absence of any robust action from the authorities, he can only advise Christians to hide their faith in the presence of Muslims, so they do not feel “provoked”.

“People like Greek Orthodox carry a big cross,” he explained. “I tell them to be practical and if they’re in those areas and wearing a big cross and a group of young guys comes, hide it in your shirt. Why provoke it?”

A police spokesman said: “The incident [had] prompted police to remind the community that any bias-motivated crime will not be tolerated.” He said the incident was still under investigation.

Sydney Trains defended the transports officers who stood by as the attack took place, telling the Telegraph their main responsibility is tackling fare evasion and that they are trained to observe from a “safe space” if passengers are assaulted.

“Why are ticket inspections deemed more important than passenger safety?” commented Telegraph journalist Miranda Devine.

“Surely, if taxpayers fund dedicated Transport Officers to ride the trains all day, they should be authorised to do more than just observe crimes and call police. Anyone can do that.”

Rev Capsis believes that, “If this keeps up, someone will be hurt.”

That's what happens when the people of a nation lay their freedoms and rights aside for the sake of political correctness.

From the article:
The minister can only advise Christians to hide their faith in the presence of Muslims, so they do not feel “provoked”.

A police spokesman said: “The incident [had] prompted police to remind the community that any bias-motivated crime will not be tolerated.”

Rev Capsis believes that, “If this keeps up, someone will be hurt.”

That's the program.

1.) Disarm your own people
2.) Import Muslims
3.) Sit back and watch as the Muslims destroy your nation
4.) Shame any of your own people who complain about it



I found what you said riveting.

Unbelievable. Hide your cross if you're a Christian. Don't provoke them. If you bother them you are guilty of a religious hate crime. They need to dig out their stashed Enfields and clean that shit hole out. This has already gone too far.

Firearm ownership is more often highly improbable. Think California with three additional rungs for possession, ownership and responsibility, along with restrictions and limits, ID and annual checkups on the security.

Hard not to believe that 5 Sydney Trains Transport Officers watched and did nothing - they are not armed, required only to observe and report. The police that took statements are similarly hobbled by a State Gov't that is largely accountable.

There's idle chatter of resurrecting the Guardian Angels, specifically for the western suburbs train lines, where the majority of the settled immigrants and young men with nothing to do but rove in packs.

It will be a sad day when the awful happens, laws that change too late to affect the victims.

But muslims believe in Jesus. Confused

Apparently these ragheads need a little education on their "faith".

I wear a cross every day. The day I hide it is the day I renounce my faith.

If my country ever gave such an advisory...

Well, I just might express a bit of righteous anger.

Sounds like a reason to start wearing a cross again, actually.

Aren't those the Muslim thugs that Hussein Obama agreed in a quiet backroom deal to take off of Australia's hands and bring here to the tune of several, several thousand. And Trump, when he learned of it? Rolled over and agreed to honor the deal. Wonderful. So some of those fine upstanding young men may becoming to an American train/school/sporting event near you.

Unless they end up in panty waist towns like Seattle, San Francisco, Minneapolis, NYC or Boston, they won't last long.

Drop them in Alabama or anywhere in Texas not named Austin or Houston, and see how well they do.

Moslems believe that Isa (Jesus) will return as a moslem to kill the Jews and convert the Christians to Islam. The aggressors know their religion. They are getting a headstart on the "Final Battle" called the Qiyamat. Do a search on it.

Seems to me the Christians should be riding the train with crosses and cricket bats. Dhimmitude in our time, in real time. Fuck that.
