This story, originally published by the UK Sun, has been retracted. I wholeheartedly echo Robert Spencer's sage wisdom in retracting the story here at Snapped Shot, as well.
Bus driver in Jolly Olde England kicks all passengers off of bus so that he can pray
right proper.
The punchline?
Yeah, you guessed it:—He's probably
not a Mormon:
“We thought it was a wind-up at first, like Jeremy Beadle.”
The 21-year-old plumber added: “He looked English and had a London accent. He looked like a Muslim convert, with a big, bushy beard.
“Eventually everyone started complaining. One woman said, ‘What the hell are you doing? I’m going to be late for work’.”
After a few minutes the driver calmly got up, opened the doors and asked everyone back on board.
But they saw a rucksack lying on the floor of the red single-decker and feared he might be a fanatic. So they all refused.
The passenger added: “One chap said, ‘I’m not getting on there now’.
“An elderly couple also looked really confused and worried.
“After seeing that no-one wanted to get on he drove off and we all waited until the next bus came about 20 minutes later. I was left totally stunned. It made me not want to get on a bus again.”
The bizarre event unfolded on the number 81 in Langley, Berkshire, at around 1.30pm on Thursday.
Be sure to click on over to Dollard's pad
for the rest, including a
mind-numbing video of events as they unfolded.
One more
excellent reason to be thankful that our Commonwealth severed its ties with the British Empire
so very long ago.
