TravelingWilBEARy 4,319 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Why should they not sell it anyway? No law has been passed making them any more illegal/abhorrent than any other bunch of wank politicians. Because they are despicable scumbag racists. I don't want them anywhere near Ibrox and as a support we should hound them and chase them back to the holes from whence they came. You, on the other hand, appear to be relaxed about them selling their poison close to our home. Hhmm. some of the irony on this thread is mind blowing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
allistera 10 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Can someone tell me why it is okay for blacks to have black history month, dedicated forums, unions, awards, mens groups.

MosesMcNeil 1,664 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Why is it a 'problem'? Why is what a problem? Policies based on skin colour? Homophobia? Anti-semitism? Xenophobia? The BNP in general - their hatethink, their ignorance? Their idiot leader? Violent criminals representing BNP core-values as councillors? I find all of that (and more) problematic. Policies based on skin colour - not any more Homophobia - ask Peter Tatchell which party he has had the most 'homophobic' dealings with. It isn't the BNP Anti-semitism - They have a Jewish councillor and members Xenophobia - a charge that could be levelled at all three main parties in some form or another and a few minor ones Ignorance - debatable. Again, all parties could be accused of this Idiot leader - name me a party that doesn't possess this trait Councillors with dodgy pasts - you're clutching at straws with this one. Spare me - if you want to be an apologist for the BNP and their moronic outlook, divisive policies and entirely unique brand of hate then feel free. It is your right after all.

Just as Griffin exercised his right to reveal the depths of his ignorance to a nation-wide audience. I'm not an apologist for anyone. I don't support the BNP. I don't support any political party. All I'm doing is exposing the knee-jerk, reactionary views of bleeding-heart liberalism which cannot formulate a coherent argument. If they were racist, they would be banned. If people want to vote for them, they should be entitled to as much as any other party. The criticisms mentioned above can be labelled at most parties. The problem with people like yourself is, you are against something but you have no idea why other than some random, questionable dictats from various partisan groups. I don't like the BNP but at least I have a consistent reason to support my argument. You have nothing other than back copies of The Guardian. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueballss 3,036 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 there was a poll done months ago in a leafy borough in england and it was relayed on the news at ten i think, that 7/10 people polled when given a list of policies presented by a political party would vote for them, and when informed it was actually the bnp they said no they wouldnt vote for them there policies do appeal to people but they will never shake off the jackboot mentality Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If two men want something to the detriment of others, one of whom after a life of priviledge and one of whom after a life of struggle then public perception will favour one over the other because a sense of fairness and equality exists in the natural unpredudiced mind.

Just zero comparison, none. You have no idea what BNP policies would be should they attain power. None. Neither do I. However, look how the international community reacted to Apartheid and Iraq with sanctions and so on after they incurred thier displeasure. Griffin is a political pragmatist. He knows that he coul dnever bee too 'extreme' as this country relies on world trade for its survival. He knows he couldn't jeopardise that. Worst case scenario I suspect would be a slightly more right-wing UKIP. That being said, they could only attain power if they had popular support. They could only retain power if thier policies found favour with the majority. They would have to be liked by the majority in the first place to get in and then found agreeable by the majority to stay in. In those instances, any 'fault' would lie with the electorate for providing the party with a popular mandate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
