"It must all make you very happy."
You are the only one here who has ever advocated or defended the persecution of any religion - you have even indulged in it yourself
Statements like yours (wherever you have claimed to got them from) continue to make the existence of entire communities miserable and dangerous.
Suggesting that Muslims are somehow perverts because of their culture - you now freely admit this though you lie in an attempt to involve others, make it impossible for ordinary law abiding people to go about their daily existence, putting their well-being, safety, and even their lives in danger from thugs who share your views.
Perhaps you might lay off accusing people of what you are indulging in yourself, and have done for a very long time.
"Still puzzled. What you wrote there Jim still seems to be consistent with what I referred to as seeing a certain tendency towards racism as having some basis in British culture, of which the imperial past is still a significant element. "
You have read what I think; to put it as simple as I am able;
Racism is the product of the unease and distrust created by racist thugs like Keith, the BNP and the sewer press.
It has nothing whatever to do with British culture, which in fact has evolved to reject racism, even to the position of building in laws to prevent the twisted people who would play on the insecurities of society.
Britain's Imperial past is just that - its past, and no more relevant than bear-baiting or hanging people.
You are either being extremely obtuse or are in the process of developing your own agenda based on twisting what others have to say - the Keith disease.
Kindly reaspond to what I have written rather than what you appear to want me to have written.
I did not "assert British people are racist; I said I witnessed a great deal of racism from having lived in three major cities, - one third of those surveyed have admitted they are - perhaps you might like to address those facts instead of beating about the bush.
