I agree.

I feel that with the TV news cycle and social media, some low information British people vaguely think they are living in a single "US-UK" polity. Like the French idea of the "Anglo-Saxons."

I really feel that the police should come down very, very hard on these far right groups.

Certain categories of speech can be prosecuted as criminal in the UK. Guns and explosives may be found in their houses. Shut those organisations down, lock the leaders and the foot soldiers up.

I know some will say they are just harmless fringe groups, arresting people and raiding their houses will just give them undue importance, but if it's done right maybe the country can really shut them down, and prevent more young people and vulnerable people from being radicalised.

In fact she was shot 3 times, stabbed and given a kicking while she was on the ground. So in fact IMHO a lot worse than just 2 shots as if being shot twice isn't bad enough.

A shame 2 traffic officers chased the animal down and got him before the firearms unit got there.

I don't think we can. Who is to decide how far right is too right? Or too left. Or too religious. Is that a decision we want in the hands of the police? The government? Probably not.

But I do very much believe in normal, decent general public speaking up loud and clear. There should have been universal condemnation yesterday of Farage's poster, although I would not have wanted him arrested however momentarily satisfying that might have felt. People need to speak up, to shun those who espouse such views and use such methods and - voluntarily, because it is the right thing to do - do not give them the oxygen they crave.

It's quite surprising all the public racial hatred. It makes me realize how easy it would be for another Hitler to rise to power. Normally keep all this hatred to themselves.

It's quite easy to get people hysterical en masse - look at Princess Diana's funeral. Look at all the nationalist, populist governments and parties around the world, and the things that people do for and with them as a result. Don't need to go as far as a Hitler.

Certainly I didn't mean UKIP or Farage. I was referring to extremist groups who already committed crimes (such as hate speech or storing illegal weapons.) In Britain there are criminal charges available, while in the U.S. such groups are able to hide behind first amendment, second amendment etc.

I hate that one tabloid had a headline like 'Brexit maniac shoots MP dead.' We don't know the full story yet, except that he'd had mental health problems, and they've made an assumption that it was all to do with the EU referendum.

It's headlines like that that sell newspapers

Agreed.

You didn't read about his links to the Springbok Club?

Is it ok to jump to conclusions when a muslim does something?

As long as they are brown-skinned, you can. Doesn't even matter if they are Hindi either, like the other guy a week or so ago, you can blame Islam for that too.

It's obligatory

And that makes you happy ...
