Answer 1

How this is suppose to help community spirit when he could be writing anything?

40 million or so people in the UK do not speak arabic.



Banksy, he ain't.

Answer 2

I agree with your general drift - it's scandalous that Muslims can get their way over traditional customs and practices THEY find 'offensive' but it doesn't work the other way. Indeed they are free to abuse British troops returning from a tour of military DUTY - waving banners wishing them to hell- which is quite different to an anti-war protest.

Continued abuse of the freedoms allowed under our laws (and taking advantage of weak or cowardly 'Government') will back-fire on those Muslims who claim to be law-abiding and peaceful. It just isn't good enough for them to keep protesting ignorance of the 'radicalised' or that they have no control over the subversive Imams.

But I must point out the 'artist' was given permission by the property owner to paint his mural and therefore committed no offence in that regard. A tv programme confirmed that he used arabic letterings fortheir own intrinsic artistic value and any 'message' depicted was very gereral and not Islamic propaganda.

Seems to me that only leaves the local planning officers with a say in the matter - I suppose if enough locals objected to the mural or it offended some bye-law it would be painted over (as I believe one or two others have been).

What Muslims don't seem to appreciate is that if you or I were caught painting a wall in Iran which depicted some Western values - say, freedom to protest, the penalty would be pretty harsh.

Answer 3

He had permission to paint a number of the walls, and was even commissioned to paint a number of them. His paintings are beautiful, and regardless of whether I understand the language or not, I would rather see his paintings than ugly scrawlings I can understand like "KKK 4eva" etc.



One law for Muslims and another for other people? I don't see you having a cry about the people who did the ugly tagging he was painting over. Seems like you're the one that has one standard for Muslim, and one for others...



Edit-



Did you even watch the video you linked? Or just read the title and use it as an excuse to start spouting your biased hatred for Muslims?



9 seconds to 13 seconds. Ugly scrawls. How do I know they're not Picasso or Rembrandt? Firstly, because I'm not a moron and know they're both dead. Secondly, because I'm not an idiot and know what their art work looks like. Thirdly, because I'm not an idiot and can read what is written in many of the ugly scrawls he's drawn over.



And are you saying it would be OK if it was Picasso or Rembrandt? Because this guy is a brilliant artist commissioned by a lot of people who hold his work in high regard, so if in your opinion it would be OK for esteemed artists to make ugly graffiti on walls without permission, but not OK for this esteemed artist to do graffiti WITH permission, that is a pretty blatant and disgusting discrimination you're making there.

Answer 4

authentic asserting, by making use of the prophet " whoever kidnaps a loose man or woman and sells them for money is perpetually in hell " authentic sayings, each significant misdeed in Islam it atoned the two by making use of a hefty punishment or putting a slave loose, no the place did it say with reference to the regulations that enabled Muslims to take new slaves the reason slave have been suggested lots in Islam is with the help of the fact they have been a given actuality interior the international those day, no longer in easy terms the Arabian area yet around the globe, and so with a view to allow a secure passage from being slave to coping with their very own lives considering they weren't experienced for independence, islam allowed them to proceed to be saves, merely that the reward for putting them loose is larger than quite much the different atonement god says " how could you realize what the huge reward (aqabah) is, putting a slave loose, or feeding on an extremely dire day an orphan that has a connection to you, or a foul man or woman that develop into as quickly as a typical rate guy, ..." and god additionally suggested that a guy that swears separation on his spouse claiming her as a taboo to him could on no account touch her till he has fasted for sixty days immediately or set a Muslim slave loose and it develop into additionally suggested that somebody who breaks an oath ought to the two quickly for 3 days immediately or set a slave loose different practices that have been predicted from early Muslims develop into to tutor slaves in examining and administration and if a guy wanted t procreate with a slave that he develop into to set her loose and self reliant first and then ask for her hand in marriage like a loose woman, it somewhat is shown by making use of an incident contained for the period of Omar while a guy got here to ***** approximately his son who develop into on no account sturdy to the daddy, so he had the son delivered in chains and asked why he did that, between the justifications of the youngster develop into that his father made his mom pregnant as a slave and left her as one to that day, Omar them swore on the guy for mistreating his son and had him whipped whilst the son went loose

Answer 5

You are sup post to over look such things,I agree with all you say,

I have only 1 wish that he falls off the ladder and brakes his bleeding neck

Answer 6

5 times a day a person of Muslim faith gets on their knees to pray



how many times a day does God even enter your mind?



as for laws, why can't the task force shoot this hard core graffiti criminal down in cold blood? most likely the owner of the building hasn't pressed charges



edit

"5 times a day a Muslim skulks off to leave his fellow,non-Muslim workers to "slave away" and cover for him while he sprawls on his belly shirkin away from work.

YET ! YET ! YET ! IF a Christian goes out for a few seconds to have a smoke.......all Hell break loose ! With cries of "Malingerer ! " and "Work-shy !" SAYS YOU



I SAY clearly you can see there is a problem with in so called Christains



JESUS RULES!!!!

Answer 7

the wall on the side of the shop. the shopkeeper consented to it. no problem here.

Answer 8

Look at it from another angle: Perhaps he was encouraged to use the ladder because someone was hoping he would fall off and do himself a nasty injury?

Answer 9

its a depressed area of birmingham F F SAKE

a little colour isnt a big story





get a life

Answer 10

Obviously him being Asian has had no bearing on your comment.



Banksy is reputed to be white, and that's the only difference. It's still just graffiti.



And there's always at least one right wing chump who thinks it's a bloody disgrace...



Bet you vote BNP as well. Just a hunch.



Edit - Oh, I know this question wasn't aimed at me.... but I can't resist. Those scrawls weren't by anyone you've mentioned because, and let me be very clear on this, both of them have been dead for years and what he was painting over could not be called art no matter how loose the definition.



Clutching at straws there, mate.

Answer 11

Boo hoo, is this all you can find to cry about?

Answer 12

What a bigot you are!!



I wouldn't call what he was doing "defacing"!! Neither is it one rule for him and another for someone else. Where he was allowed to paint - his paintings stayed - were they weren't - the council painted over it. As they would with anyone else.



Perhaps you consider Banksy to be "defacing" too......



Tut! philistine. ahahhahaha! ;)

Answer 13

Yet another politically correct disgrace.

Answer 14

So street art is the domain of white christians only then is it...?



Alright for Banksy but not a muslim...?



Did you not see his impressive art work in his studio during the interview???

Answer 15

What did you expect?

Answer 16

I doubt this would have caught your attention if the guy was white and painting gang signs.

Answer 17

The cancer has taken hold........
