Minister in London Attacked

Known for his disputes with Muslims on his Gospel show, Christian Reverend Noble Samuel was attacked by 3 men while he was on his way to his show.
They drove a car in front of him, asking for directions, and when he rolled down the window a man grabbed his hair in an attempt to smash Mr. Samuel's head against the steering wheel.
Some claim these three men were Asian, and the Metropolitan Police are on the lookout.
Mr. Samuel and his family now fear for their lives; police have tried to reassure them, but have given them warning to future assaults.

What has our world come to? Is it so wrong to have different religious/political views?
Will we resort to violence, once again, to dissolve our differences?
