He's now apologised and retracted: Emerson with Judge Pirro: No-Go Islamic Zones and Western Self-Denial :: IPT in the News :: The Investigative Project on Terrorism
"I have clearly made a terrible error for which I am deeply sorry. My comments about Birmingham were totally in error. And I am issuing this apology and correction for having made this comment about the beautiful city of Birmingham. I do not intend to justify or mitigate my mistake by stating that I had relied on other sources because I should have been much more careful. There was no excuse for making this mistake and I owe an apology to every resident of Birmingham. I am not going to make any excuses. I made an inexcusable error. And I am obligated to openly acknowledge that mistake. I wish to apologize for all residents of that great city of Birmingham.

PS. I am making donation to Birmingham Children's Hospital."
Though as somebody pointed out, by referring to "the beautiful city of Birmingham" he's made another ridiculous mistakeLast edited by NickFitz; 12 January 2015, 00:33.Comment

Interesting - how do we know how our cities are portrayed around the world?
The fact that there are a lot of ethnic groups in Birmingham has lead someone to make a pretty crap connection
But maybe we should at least sit up and ask why........Comment

I did laugh at some of the tweets posted on the beeb article last night:
Birmingham's refuse collectors are all Bin Laden.As someone born and raised in Birmingham, I must admit there was a pressure to read the Kerrang.Comment

He also states that their are religious police on the streets of London - which is a distortion of the truth. There are Muslim vigilantes on the streets of London, but they have no legal authority whatsoever (and should be arrested and prosecuted where found, for harrassment).Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment
