As much as I disagree with the OP I'm staggered at the amount of posters that want him silenced.
He has his views, oppose them, argue with him, dispute him but lay off with the "Magik" witch hunt and bullying tactics to shut him up or have him banned.
Either ignore his post or rebut it (and there are more than enough posters here eloquent enough to bury his clumsy proposition and make him wish he hadn't of posted it), mob and bullying posts just drops everyone to the same level as the original post.
You do of course have a totally valid point.
Everyone is entitled to an opinion.
But how long and how often do we have to put up with an account registered almost singularly to do these racist undertoned half baked RRS feeds?
What if you're black? Don't you think you'd find his style rather bullying and not conductive to you taking part if you are not white?
I don't know, just a guess..
Sooner or later he'll break forum guidelines and earn himself a ban, until then and disagreeable as it might be, let him post and persuade him he should look at things differently rather than just screaming "racist - you should be banned or the thread closed" at him.
Ah. This is where I think you're wrong.
You can't persuade these people.
He went to 'Edinburgh & Oxford' or whatever, if he's that 'bright' opinions are generally set by this point in life.
So riddicule the hell out of it as you should.
Given the strong personalities around here we'd be doomed if every controversial or opinionated thread was closed.
There have been a lot of them. They last so long, but then boil down to the racists irrationality.
What do you do then? It's circles.
And so it will be until I die, and the rest of you. And it will continue..
But I'm not one for sitting back.
Having said that, OP, you really need to read more about our history if you think street violence, robbery and knife crime is tied solely to immigrants over the last 50 years. Put your argument in context with some research around it and people will listen (although they may disagree). As it stands your posts on race with no supporting argument are reminiscent of Mosley or worse and it didn't take long for Londoners to suss him out and put their point across at Cable Street.
