Is Great Britain turning into a racist hell?

I think that what should worry the Good and Gentle British people the most is that the very frequent racist attacks in Britain, unlike the sparse ones in Greece and other European countries, have British citizens as targets and not or not only illegal immigrants.

Below are just a few of the many cases reported. And the question is, hoe many pas unnoticed or are not reported?

Racist stabbings in Britain

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/ ... bbing.html

Gurdeep Bhangal, now 41, was attacked with a kitchen knife outside his father's Wimpy franchise in Eltham on 11 March 1993, during a spate of racist attacks in the weeks before Stephen Lawrence's murder. He had confronted a group of abusive white youths that he alleges included David Norris. Another member of the group stabbed him.

Says the shit stirring brainless bitch? What's your problem? Does it make you feel good to accuse others?

No doubt you believe that Geece is the only country in the world that does not experience racism.

What a mindless brain dead cretin.

Why did the little Greek boy run away from home?

He didn't like the way he was being reared!

Tsukoui, that is racist cr*p and you know it - racism was not invented by the British and is far older than Darwin - indeed the Ancient Greeks practised racism, as encapsulated within the word barbarian, which is essentially racist in nature since it seeks to discriminate between Greeks and non Greeks, possibly because of sterotypicalised thoughts about their speach or possibly facial hair, and in terms which were demeaning in nature and indeed was even used by the Ancent Athenians in a perjorative manner to describe peoples from other Greek speaking polis.

As for continued profiteering of the elites off the backs of the wretched of the earth, that too appears to be an ancient construct which existed in suppossedly democratic ancient Athens with an oppressed majority of metics and helots who did most of the work but were denied social or political equality with the citizens, and indeed where the helots were treated as property.

Racism is in fact probably goes back as the point when humanity began to disperse into distinct groups which were in some way in competition with each other and where through the use of language were able to puck on certain charcteristics of the other group to show them in someway as different and thereby inferior.

No, "prejudice" and "exploitation", I grant you, date back to the beginning of humanity, but "racism" as we know it today does not... the Greek concept of "barbarians" was not the same as the modern concept of "race" invented by the British... the Ancient Greeks considered people to be Greek if they shared the same culture, irrespective of the particular and arbitrary genes that the British picked out to define the "races"... they had slaves, they had prejudices and they had inequality, all of which are deplorable, but they didn't discriminate on the same basis as we do today... more recently the Ottomans practiced slavery that was not racist like the British... they had African, European, Russian, Asian slaves and they all went for the same price irrespective of modern day notions of "race"... this is why I distinguish between "xenophobia" and "racism"... "racism" as we know it today was invented by the British... "xenophobia" has existed since the dawn of humanity...

You really are showing your own prejudices and a very narrow minded view point: Scientific Racism can be dated back to at least the late 17th/early 18th century and eg the protogentic works of Henri de Boulainvilliers , and his theories of descent, and ran through Linnaeus, Meiners, Voltaire, Hegel, and Kant, all of whom predate Darwin and none of whom are British.

yes, but he went back home soon after...

he couldn't leave his brothers behind.

Britain one step ahead. Not only racism but there is a rise in Eugenics and elitism. This stretches on from their well-known Class System.

Kimon, with your comment

unlike the sparse ones in Greece and other European countries

in your initial post you made a comparison between racism in Britain and elsewhere so I think comparison by others is quite fair to challenge your unsupported statement that in Greece and elsewhere in Europe they are quite sparse. indeed in objecting to comparisons by other when you have made comparisons I think your later quote

Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?

applies to you too.

Don't mind comparisons at all. There are a lot to be said about, lets say, Germany, Australia, the USD etc. But I think we should start a new thread on that and keep this one about Britain. As for Greece, we already the one which bill started.

I simply return accusations. And I am thrilled to see it hurts.

No doubt you believe that Geece is the only country in the world that does not experience racism.

Justified xenophobia. Yes.

What a mindless brain dead cretin.

I am only trying to tell you this. Mind your own f* business or you will suffer the consequences. You will not be accusing me for things of which YOU are the champions and the instructors.

[boomerang]

little kinon, with all this threats someone would mistakenly think you actually started growing cojones...

Your shitty country is not far behind so take it like a man and shut up!

The last one is from 1993. All those hours spend looking for links to support a spurious claim & that's the best you could do?

How about researching & posting electoral support stats pollsters see for Golden Dawn vs that for EDF+NF combined in the UK?
