I can understand it completly. Graffiti in the muslim areas of Wycombe (where some of those arrested appear to be from )saying 'Whites get out' and similar + years of random attacks on whites and blacks by Pakistanis in the town suggest a group, divided from society full of hate for the country they live in, [...] No point some people pretending the problem doesn't exist.
Originally posted by chrissybNo, there are many ethnics that support the BNP mainly against the imigration that is going on in the country. I think its the fact the media show muslim clerics on tele preaching and brainwashing the young muslim community who are at an age where they are easily influenced. This then leads the general public to tarnish the muslim/pakistani community with the same brush.

+ Many other towns I fear, Luton, Slough, Aylesbury to name a few. Walking through some of our Pakistani areas at night with the wrong colour skin is not to be advised, I have the injuries to prove it.
Originally posted by Sicilian SmaugI thought that the riots in birmingham (was it last year or the year before?) would have brought inter minority racism to the fore but that seems to have been forgotten...
Southall is 8 miles from where I live, not somewhere I'd ever chose to go. The last 10 years Southall and the surrounding area has had 30000+ Somali immigrants move in and relations between them and the long established Asian community couldn't be much worse. That's one thing the media never seems to discuss, bad feeling between immigrant groups. Wonder why that might be.
