I've definately got a touch of islamaphobia. after watching the news today and seeing the pre-recorded videos for the planned plane attacks it seems to have worsened.
P.S any P.C minded people don't bother with the you're racist messages as they are so tiresome

 

Not neccessarily racist to have issues with Islam but you've made comments about Stephen Lawrence (murdered black youth) and made derogatory comments about Kosovans. You seem to sneer at anyone who takes issue with racist comments.

On Blades message boards there has been some discussion about the BNP stand in Barnsley town centre and whether or not a similar stand would appear in Sheffield city centre.

Barnsley is perceived as a racist town and I'm aware that non-whites historically have not felt safe in the town

 

I do not think we are a racist town. No more than any other. However I do think those of the generations 45 plus are more ignorant in Barnsley than many other northern towns.

I'm not meaning ignorant in a nasty way, simply ignorant in that they do not know much about other cultures. I'm not including everyone, just saying a larger proportion. My mother for example, has never really come into contact with many people of other ethnic origins. The reason for this is because Barnsley has until recently not had much of an ethnic population.

Lack of knowledge and ignorance can make people more fearful, that is natural.

We are comfortable with what we knw and not the unknown. All many Barnsley people know about muslims is that they blow people up, therefore they do not like muslims and are afraid of them.

 

He posts stuff like that to make himself feel better about his life.</p>

It's all B*ll*cks. &quot;Yeah, right, like I was talking to my anti-fascist friends yeah ? And we all agreed like how bad it is yeah ? To like be racist yeah ? &quot;</p>

VIth form ramblings from a sad old man. Bit of a shame really.</p>

 

RE: "no more than any other"

At local elections in 2007 the BNP fielded something like 19 candidates in Barnsley wards, coming a good second to Labour in most of them including darton and Worsbrough. Barnsley is seen as a primary target town by Nick Griffin who believes that the first major breakthrough could be here.

I'm aware that non white nursing students who come to barnsley from Sheffield and elsewhere are warned to expect racist comments.

I used to work with Winston Cambells brother and he did not dare go into Barnsley before or after the match

 

Calm down. You're in denial.

RE: "no more than any other"

I'm sorry if thats what people are saying. But I don't think it is true that Barnsley people are in more racist than other towns. Perhaps they might use racist terms through ignorance a little more.

But as we have traditionally had and still have only a very small ethnic population this is inevitable. We probably have the highest percentages of ethnic whites for a metropolitan borough in England.

One of Barnsley's mosy loved character Charlei Williams was black.

Although undoubtedly he faced racism he faced racism.

 

RE: "no more than any other"

I thought the BNP's first major breakthrough came in Burnley....or are you doing the media thing and getting Burnley and Barnsley mixed up?

 

If you find it so tedious then why post it in the first place? nt

 

RE: "no more than any other"

har de har.. Griffin doesn't make it explicit what he means by a major breakthrough, I don't think that they were the majority party in Burnley perhaps Griffin thinks that they could gain control of Barnsley . These minority groups do like to big themselves up though. Incidentally the first BNP councillor was Derek Beacon in the Isle of Dogs 10 years ago.

 

Regarding Blade's statement that i've made a comment about Stephen Lawrence, he not stated what my comment was so will people presume it was racist?
My comment was that a man in his 20's was stabbed the same day by an Asian youth and i was wondering why that did not get any press attention. The papers had pages and pages on Lawrence and still do.
Altogether, Stephen has been mentioned as at May 2007 more than 1,000 times in parliament by around 350 Mps. At the same time, the deaths of the 921 British people, who were murdered by first and generation immigrants since he died, have been mentioned less than 250 times by the same MP's.
Where's the fairness there? Howcome the deaths of white people murdered by other races do not recieve the same mass scale of media coverage and why are people not so outraged when it's this way round

RE: "no more than any other"

So where did you see this about Barnsley being a "primary target town"?

 

RE: I rest my case...

Glad i didn't annoy you, i don't want you putting the frightners on me with your friends from the IRA

 

RE: What do you give a person digging thenselves into.
