Whites man Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 That sentence tells you everything you need to know about TR. Using Kent logic Robinson cannot be racist as he met this Muslim guy on numerous occasions. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/world/2013/oct/19/my-journey-with-edl-tommy-Robinson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whites man Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Do you think Tommy Robinson is racist? Because if you don't then this is a terrible analogy. I think he is racist and I think Corbyn is an anti Semite. The fact that one met Muslims and the other Jews does not change my opinion on this, unlike yourself.

The fact that one met Muslims and the other Jews does not change my opinion on this, unlike yourself. Well I don't necessarily think Tommy Robinson is racist either. I did do some time ago - but I changed my perception as I learned more about him. I do think he's a bellend, a rabble rouser and a self publicist. Let's try this another way. Here's the working definition of antisemitism - which bit of it do you think has JC fallen foul of? https://www.holocaustremembrance.com/working-definition-antisemitism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I firmly believe it to be true, Hope Note Hate, UAF, Stand Up To Racism and any other organisation of this type blantantly lie all the time, The Weyman Bennett interview on the Jon Gaunt show is a perfect example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bolty58 Posted August 3, 2018 Members Share Posted August 3, 2018 you'll need to be a little more clear Certainly. You appear to leap to the defence of a particular creed in a nanosecond without giving any thought to the mounting mass of evidence which I believe is the reason that most don't trust followers of said creed. With this in mind, it would appear that you find it easier to criticise your indigenous countrymen than those who will not assimilate. I won't type the full list (not sure I could it is so monumental) but here's a few to get you thinking:- 9/11 7/7 Madrid Raqqa Paris Rotherham Telford Brussels Joue les Tours Ile de France Nice Copenhagen Saint Quentin Fallavier Oignies Berlin Saint Denis Marseilles Istanbul Hanover Zaventem Magnanville Wursburg Ansbach St Etienne de Rouvray Charleroi London Manchester Stockholm Hamburg Barcelona Turku Carcassone Trebes Liege .........................getting tired yet? This is a tiny fraction of the list. Being against a particular religion becoming more understandable? No, I thought not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I thought not no one in their right mind would jump to the defence of those responsible for acts carried out in the above list, and no one is there is no doubt extremism is an issue if you want to judge all followers of islam by the actions of a "few", crack on there's probably more muslim footballers than there are terrorists, some of our better players in recent times even, but don't see anyone booing them or demanding they "go home", quite the opposite in fact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You obviously haven't looked, nor have you ever looked at the crowd on any of the Tommy Robinson demo's if that's what you think his supporters are made up of, the bald middle aged men are what the news like to show rather that actual crowds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only bothered reading so far down, so I'll take your word for it. There were also lots supporting what he posted. If ever there was a microcosm of our current division it is in those twitter replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kent_white Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Someone is talking bollocks. I wonder which one it is? 'The Prison Service has disputed the claims made by Robinson about being held in solitary confinement in his interview with Fox News. A spokesman said: "Mr Yaxley-Lennon was treated with the same fairness we aim to show all prisoners – he had access to visits, television and showers – and it is totally false to say he was held in 'solitary confinement’. "He was initially placed into the Care & Separation Unit for less than 48 hours while an assessment of the risk to his safety was undertaken by prison staff. “He then joined the main prison population."'
