THIS is the dramatic moment heroic bystanders pour water on two acid attack victims after they suffered burns in East London.

Footage shows the shirtless men being doused in buckets of water by onlookers as they desperately try to wash the corrosive substance off their bodies.

The two men were both rushed to hospital with burns following the broad daylight horror in Hackney at around 7.20pm yesterday.

They remain in a non life threatening condition in hospital and no arrests have been made so far.

It came just hours after cops were raced to another acid attack in nearby Walthamstow.

A man was walking on Walthamstow High Street just after 6.30am when two men wearing burkhas chucked the substance over him.

They then fled the scene in a waiting car, with cops still hunting the suspects.

ACID ATTACKS

The UK has one of the highest rates of acid attacks per capita in the world, according to Acid Survivors Trust International (ASTI).

It claims the country does not have "tight controls on acid sales" or "legislation specific to acid attacks".

ASTI's figures, quoting the police, reveal the number of recorded attacks has increased nearly three-fold from 228 recorded crimes in 2012 to 601 attacks in 2016.

Gang disputes are said to be behind the rise in acid attacks in London and other British cities.

London has emerged as a hot spot for acid attacks in recent years, with more than half of incidents within the UK taking place in the capital.

The number of cases more than doubled from less than 200 in 2014 to 431 in 2016, with Scotland Yard focusing on specific parts of the city.

Who are the people doing these attacks?

Why are they being allowed to continue living in Britain?

I am thinking collective blame and collective punishment here.

If the groups to which these savage criminals belong were not living in Britain would we be experiencing all of the stabbings, acid attacks, robberies and related crime?

Would we save vast sums of money used on maintaining a larger police force, building and maintaining prisons to keep the ones caught, courts and lawyers? Would we save huge amounts of money by not having to pay for the social benefits these groups get for free?

Then there is all of the suffering of the innocent victims of the violent crime these groups are responsible for.

As far as I can see it is the West-Indian, African and Muslim immigrant groups that are mostly responsible. The only logical conclusion to draw is the these groups must be deported in their entirety. If they were not here there would not be all of this disgusting crime. As long as they are here the crime will continue. No other measures or expense can end this crime.

Muslim Terrorism Count

Mission Overview

Most Western societies are based on Secular Democracy, which itself is based on the concept that the open marketplace of ideas leads to the optimum government. Whilst that model has been very successful, it has defects. The 4 Freedoms address 4 of the principal vulnerabilities, and gives corrections to them.

At the moment, one of the main actors exploiting these defects, is Islam, so this site pays particular attention to that threat.

Islam, operating at the micro and macro levels, is unstoppable by individuals, hence: "It takes a nation to protect the nation". There is not enough time to fight all its attacks, nor to read them nor even to record them. So the members of 4F try to curate a representative subset of these events.

We need to capture this information before it is removed. The site already contains sufficient information to cover most issues, but our members add further updates when possible.

We hope that free nations will wake up to stop the threat, and force the separation of (Islamic) Church and State. This will also allow moderate Muslims to escape from their totalitarian political system.

The 4 Freedoms

These 4 freedoms are designed to close 4 vulnerabilities in Secular Democracy, by making them SP or Self-Protecting (see Hobbes's first law of nature). But Democracy also requires - in addition to the standard divisions of Executive, Legislature & Judiciary - a fourth body, Protector of the Open Society (POS), to monitor all its vulnerabilities (see also Popper).
1. SP Freedom of Speech
Any speech is allowed - except that advocating the end of these freedoms
2. SP Freedom of Election
Any party is allowed - except one advocating the end of these freedoms
3. SP Freedom from Voter Importation
Immigration is allowed - except where that changes the political demography (this is electoral fraud)
4. SP Freedom from Debt
The Central Bank is allowed to create debt - except where that debt burden can pass across a generation (25 years).

An additional Freedom from Religion is deducible if the law is applied equally to everyone:

Religious and cultural activities are exempt from legal oversight except where they intrude into the public sphere (Res Publica)"
