What's that there holding .223, boy I'm impressed, and that body armor they wear, well lets just say it wouldn't stop a around from one of my rifles. The helmets no protection either and guess what, that doesn't even begin to touch what many have. Just in the small area around me we could put together a real force. I bet you're one of those they would find hiding under his bed with a wet spot between your legs. This would be you right.Truce

History does not bear this out as being a factual statement, it underestimates the amount of racist arseholes there are.
It depends on the circumstances. In some places, sure, the shop probably wouldn't go out of business. However, places change; if enough people moved in / out of an area to cause a shift in values, that shop wouldn't be as successful anymore.

it would be extremely successful in towns like these:

Inside ‘Nazi town,’ the German enclave of extremism
Quote:In Jamel, a tiny collection of red brick farmhouses fringed by forest, dozens of villagers describe themselves as Nazis and a majority turns out to vote for the far right.

This is a place with little welcome for strangers. Rottweilers bark incessantly. A shaven-headed man shouts his own warning, while a woman shrieks an obscenity from her window.

Jamel is for some the tip of the iceberg, an indication of how the far right in Germany is open and active, especially in areas of former East Germany where jobs are scarce.

This month in Munich, the opening stages of a shocking trial have given further cause for introspection in a country which is being forced to confront the violent racism which pervades parts of its society.

Beate Zschaepe, 38, an apprentice gardener from Jena, in eastern Germany, is accused of complicity in a series of racially motivated murders carried out by a neo-Nazi cell, the National Socialist Underground. The cell is being held responsible for the murder of eight men of Turkish origin, who were shot in the head at point-blank range.

Angela Merkel, the German chancellor, has apologized to the victims’ families, describing the killings as “a disgrace for our country.”

But the case has raised questions about official complacency. German security services and police failed to pursue tipoffs about the NSU, instead suspecting the immigrant victims of having links with organized crime.

Figures published by the German government showed that crime attributed to the far right is rising, with more than 17,000 cases last year — of which 842 were violent acts. Authorities estimate that there are more than 22,000 right-wing extremists in the country. Nearly half, around 9,800, are regarded by Germany’s security services as violent.

BBC news item

For those who don't know, a man was beheaded in Woolwich, London, UK in what appears to be a religio-political killing by Islamic extremists. One of the killers gave an 'interview' immediately after the killing and the video has been widely distributed (see the link).This has sparked widespread anti-islamic sentiment across the UK resulting in demonstrations by right-wing groups and counter-demonstrations by pro-islamic and human-rights groups. In the meantime, muslims across the UK (especially London) appear to be in fear of reprisals, although none have been reported yet.

For me, I'm sickened both by the killing and the bigotry.
I am truly shocked by this. Not the fact that a couple of Islamises martyred a 25 year old British Soldier out of hate - but the fact that they desecrated the corpse as well. If they were truly genuine in their reasons for brutally killing the soldier - then why did the desecrate the corpse??? What role does it have to play in war? None, that's what.

When I first heard this news, the first words out of my mouth was "fucking Islamics". It wasn't reported at that time that the perpetrators were Islamic - but it's fucking obvious. Their entire world - the entire Middle East - is disgusting, they infiltrate western cultures, don't respect the cultures they're integrated into, and then carry out terrorist activity. In my opinion - the freedom of religion notwithstanding - Islam should be Illegal. It should be declared legally to be a criminal organization.

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK


"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke

Really? I don't recall a report suggesting that a member of the EDL butchered an innocent man in broad daylight. Oh, but they said some insensitive shit on facebook, so I'll call the cops, or MAMA. Is that what is most appalling to you?
