BCF: An “anti-oppressive, anti-racist position” means never having to mention Islam…

From Blazing Cat Fur:

I have been wondering about the issue of Forced Marriage in Canada in light of efforts by in the UK to combat this repugnant practice. Let’s look at at some facts regarding the make-up of the UK’s case load. The UK’s Forced Marriage Unit records that  “65 percent of its cases involved Pakistani nationals and 25 percent involved Bangladeshi nationals“. In other words 85% of it’s total case load.  In an article published in the Montreal Gazette in June of this year the FMU reports that “46 per cent of the nearly 600 cases of forced marriage it dealt with between January and May this year involved Pakistani nationals” alone.

Pakistan and Bangladesh are Muslim nations and while other cultures do engage in the practice of forced marriage it is a safe bet to state that it is most prevalent within Islamic cultures. Which leads me to wonder at Canada’s effort to combat Forced Marriage.  In my search I came across this organization; AMFM Canada- the Alliance of Multicultural Agencies Against Forced Marriage in Canada which runs the “Forced Marriage Project”.

AMFM states that their project is: “… an awareness and education initiative. Hundreds, possibly thousands, of women, girls, men and boys in Canada are affected by forced marriage; however it is an issue that has not as yet been adequately addressed in Canada. As such, we approach the issue of forced marriage from an anti-oppressive, anti-racist position, viewing it primarily as a form of violence against women, which is sometimes used to control men and boys as well, and we seek to address it along with other forms of violence and domestic abuse.

  1. Political correctness strikes again, the left has a lot of blood on their hands because of political correctness, so much their isn’t enough soap to wash it off.

  2. I think we nonbelievers should not waste time looking into their self-inflicted islamic community problems, while those devious islamics are aggressively attacking us nonbelievers with their subtlely or blatantly horrible islamic culture and excessively imposing their horrible islamic culture or ritual on us nonbelievers.
    ONe thing for the West to do is to stop immigration from horrible countries. Islamic should not export their islamic problems to the West and should solve their islamic problems in their eastern countries of origin.

  3. Why are the muzzies dicatating terms in whatever country that they are in if anybody goes to shitastan you HAVE TO follow their rules but unfortunately there are too many bleedin hearts out there who put ideas into their tiny little minds
