seems like a statement authoritarian fanboys might make

Ahh, I see. yes, I think they do in the general population. They don't for me personally. It was a statement of fact, not preference.

Better?

Yup.

I'm also of the "people are stupid but not me" mindset.

Would it not be more cost effective doing it on the way in ?

Yeah but Yanks don't do cost effective.

In America, the racist far-right is dominated by fringe criminal groups. In Britain, they're represented by a ****ing political party. I think it's clear which country has the real problem.

The BNP is headquartered in Wales, by the way. You stay classy, Wales.

[MOBIUS]

You're wrong Drake, you forgot to mention the Republican party (a mainstream criminal group) - your racist far-right actually gets its hands on the levers of power with distressing regularity...

It was only a decade ago it invaded an innocent defenceless country, causing the deaths of hundreds of thousands of its citizens because they were a funny colour!

The BNP is only 'headquartered' in Wales because it's leader, Nick Griffin (an Englishman) has chosen to live here and the PO Box address is in the closest town to where he lives...

That's like saying all right-wingers are racist c*nts because his parents were tories. Only most of them are...

Must try harder.

The BNP are a radical bunch of ****heads who are nationally despised by 99% of the UK population. They are allowed to form a party because we have this little called freedom of speech.

The GOP are a radical bunch of ****heads who are supported by 47% of the US population. You do the maths.

The only think I've learned from this thread is NASCAR is viewed by some as a real sport.

Is this really the best you can do? The UK is partially represented in the European Parliament by a ****ing fascist party and your response is some hand-waving bull**** about the Republican Party?

You might as well just face the facts; the UK is a more racist country than the US and has a much more influential far-right. Denying this just makes you look like an idiot.

The UK was right there with the Yanks. I imagine your troops did more than their fair share of killing, since the British have so much more experience keeping the wogs down. It's practically your national pastime.

Freedom of speech in America is much more robust than that in the UK, yet you don't see any fascist parties in the US. Parties like the BNP exist in the UK because it's a more racist country. That they exist is bad enough, but what's really shameful is that they have enough supporters to get elected to office.

[Sava]

the UK [...] it's a more racist country

they invented racism

[molly bloom]

Do you think someone who was raped in prison is more or less likely to rape people?

Not if you shiv them repeatedly afterwards.

(Thanks to 'Oz' for this bit of info.)

16th Century Spain and the laws/discrimination against Jewish and Moorish converts to Catholicism wins that prize.

You're not giving the English enough credit. They ordered the Jews expelled from their country all the way back in 1290.

Half of America is represented by a racist party, you ****ing clown. Do you actually know how few votes it takes to get someone into the European parliament? No-one gives a crap about voting in those elections.

You might as well just face the facts; the UK is a more racist country than the US and has a much more influential far-right. Denying this just makes you look like an idiot.

Oh gee, that must be true because as recently as the sixties we kept our minorities segregated from the white population and lynched them when they got uppity. Oh wait..

The UK was right there with the Yanks. I imagine your troops did more than their fair share of killing, since the British have so much more experience keeping the wogs down. It's practically your national pastime.

Try harder. A few million Native Americans think you can do better.

Sure you don't, America would never allow radical far right political groups like the American National Socialists, the countless far right militia groups or indeed the extremists sections of the GOP who do lovely things like scream religious hate at gatherings of Muslim families.

You know the real difference between the US and the UK? Over here our hate mongers are very few in number and grouped together into a couple of small organizations that the other 99% of the country can carefully watch and counter. In America your president actually has to come out and reassure the country that he's not a member of a certain mainstream religion. Yeah, so much ****ing tolerance in the land of the free.
