The staff at Spellbound say they have received death threats

Witches who run an occult shop in the shadow of a famous Cathedral claim they are victims of a hate campaign and say the police are doing nothing about it.

“I have reported such incidents on numerous occasions but when the police arrive they tell me that people are just expressing opinions,” she said. If we were members any other religion or group it would be treated as hate crime and dealt with appropriately.”

By “Any other religion or group” she would be referring to the massive influx of Muslims into the UK who have been given special religious protections by authorities to the point that even discussing rapist who is a Muslim can land one in prison for a hate crime.

Toni Hunt and her staff at ‘Spellbound’ in College Green, Gloucester, say they have been called terrorists and devil worshippers and have received death threats. According to them no matter how many of these incidents they have reported, the police just blow it off because of their beliefs. While this is a real problem, there’s an underlying problem that shows how the Witch community made matters worse.

Ms. Hunt says they have been targeted for abuse for about two years, This is normal for any Witch shop, but she says things got worse in recent months when they received a threat to burn down the premises – with the staff still inside. This surge in hate and aggression towards the shop seems to coincide with the #BindTrump event four months ago where a group of liberals hijacked Wicca for a despicable public hexing of President Trump which was nothing but another method of public protest at the expense of the entire Pagan community. This single act set back Pagan public relations 30 years by vindicating the christian extremist’s claim that we are all evil devil worshippers of the Ult-left because it was a religious attack on a leader they view as a champion of their religion. And while most UK conservatives are not too concerned with Trump as a president, Christians all over the world were abuzz with the news that Witches were casting spells against a president and it was viewed as pure unadulterated persecution.

 

Ms. Hunt continues

“Persecution of witches did not end centuries ago – it is still very prominent in the 21st century and we are being subjected to it regularly. We have been called all sorts – Black Magic Badger Killers, Spawn of Satan and in the same league as ISIS.”

It should also be stated that part of the intent of #BindTrump was to also bind him from issuing military orders needed to protect the country. The only reason one would support this is because they sympathize with the enemy. So it is only a logical step that an association with ISIS would quickly form. While we fully agree what is happening to these women is wrong, we must not ignore that actions have consequences. In no way are we stating that these women had any involvement with #BindTrump, but this is no doubt a problem made worse by the narcissistic and selfish act of a vocal minority abusing Paganism for political gain.

Greek Goddess Statue Torn Down After Islamic Outcry

Bangladesh workers tore down a statue of the Greek Goddess Themis in the country’s Supreme Court complex to appease sharia law.

Muslims demanded that the statue of the goddess of justice be torn down by Friday, staying it “hurt the religious sentiments of Muslims.”

After mass protests during which protesters reportedly shouted “Douse the smouldering fire in the hearts of the Muslims or otherwise the fire will soon catch you,”

Bangladesh’s Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina agreed to remove the six-month-old statue. Workers subsequently got to work yesterday dismantling it.

Do we see any similarities here? A historic statue gets is erected and A-holes who are offended by it scream, cry, protest and threaten until the cucks in office give in and remove the statue in the dead of night as to be as quiet and discrete about it as possible hoping no one will notice. Just this month four confederate statues were removed in Louisiana in the same manner. Angry intolerant and ignorant groups find offense with historical art and demand they be torn down by throwing temper tantrums, and the weak government officials give them their way… and then they just move on to the next thing they find offensive and will not stop until they have banned and removed everything in the world that isn’t their own ideology.

The removal of the statue was seen as a victory for the Hefazat muslims, who have already stated their goal is to have all offending art removed from the entire country that represent humans and/or animals. They also demand all art classes in schools that allow students to draw people be banned.

The statue’s sculptor Mrinal Haque understandably saw the decision as a major loss. No doubt not just a loss to the art world, but to freedom in general. “This is an alarming signal for our country,” Haque said according to The New York Times, adding that it was a “defeat for the freedom-loving, secular people of the country. We all have to stand against this fundamentalist movement.”

 Chock this up to be just another example of why the Pagan community needs to smarten up and stop acting like Islam is an oppressed religion. Stop defending it, Stop pandering to it.
