Ask any person on this thread if any member of the BNP should be sought out and assaulted.

You'll might get a flippant response like the ones above, but when it comes to action and organization that isn't how any mudcatters act.

Now go and check out the BNP's "redwatch" - in case you didn't know, this exists to make public the names and addresses of those who publicly oppose the BNP for the specific purpose of making it possible to seek them out and intimidate them, abuse them, put faeces in their letterboxes or physically attack them.

I specifically advocate providing information that shows who the BNP are and I advocate demanding evidence of BNP claims.

I believe that BNP advocates can easily be challenged in this way and that they should always be challenged in this way to make sure that they remain out of power.

That is how I think they should be dealt with.


However, I do agree with the 'substance' of the points made above - that BNP thugs do 'deserve' a good kicking.

The comments above suggest that they deserve it on the one hand and on the other hand they warn the BNP that if they come looking for trouble they can expect to meet with stiff resistance.

The reality is that while the above is all words, the BNP have a history of actually seeking out and assaulting people of various groups with intent to injure.
