eek, fascists at large?

We still have those issues in the US, Jb, and however much I hate it and cannot understand it, I think racism will always exist in some form. President Obama has to be more well-protected than any other president in our history. And racism still exists here among other groups, too. Sad! The anti-jewish activity culminated with Hitler. Not much can top that for inhumanity! Karen

Hi judith, my take on this is that the bnp have never been the sharpest smarties in the box in the first place and anyone who isn't white who actually wants to join them must be even thicker than them as the bnp vocally so not like non whites. It's nothing to do with who is British by birth or whatever, the bnp are just out and out rascists and do not like non whites, that is simple enough for their little brains to understand. They could be compared to the brownshirts of the hitler youth who were also brawn rather than brain and also very easily influenced. However there is a point to be learnt here from history which is although groups like the bnp may be considered a joke if they ever do have enough support and are taken over by someone smart enough to manipulate them for their own agenda, as happened in Berlin, then real trouble could come, but as yet the bnp are just viewed as a group of thugs without due thought processes. The issue between bnp thugs and asian youth I am aware of from my teenage years and would best in my mind be described as 'gang neighbourhood mentalitly'. I once live near to an area where many Pakistanis became the majority of immigrants there and whilst the parents may have been hard working people a minority of the teenage boys became typical disaffected youth and fought with the white teenage thugs in a territorial gang way. Obviously years later this escalated into no go area in some towns and names such as muslims and bnp were thrown into the equation. Whilst I believe that football hooliganism is revolting the conflict between the two groups now is nothing more than hooliganism on the streets now justified by the attachment of labels. All such hooligans of whichever group or race should be rounded up and punished in severe suitable fashion and stop disturbing the peaceful majority and their activities should be renamed as hooliganism without brains instead of attaching race cards to it. Please suggest suitable punishments Judith if you agree.

I spend a lot of time in the UK and as far as I can determine the BNP is greatly out-numbered in most areas. An e-mail I got from a friend a few weeks ago told it basically like it is. A family of two all white people will have 2.01 children on average while the muslims etc will average 8.11 children so in very few years the UK is going to be better than 80% muslim and other non-white races - all I have to do is look around the neighborhood I am in and I can see this happening. I know quite a few muslims and no matter what the age they seem to be having another child at least every 12 months and they begin at an early age and cotinue until they are getting to be past child besring age. If the BNP wants to protest in Islamic neighborhoods they will find out just how far they have been outnumbered.

There's anti-muslim stuff going on over here too. Scary...

Does the BNP wear white robes and pointy white hats? Maybe they are some sort of branch of the US's KKK.
