Subject: RE: Folk Against Fascism
You're right Jeddy. That's the reason for the mobilisation agains the BNP.

I am a libertarian. If somebody holds fascist opinions and racist baggage then they are free to their thoughts and they are free to speak them. But I and others will make damn sure that there is at least an equal and opposite reaction to them. That is democracy.

The true policies of the BNP (the views of its glory-arse leader) are poisonous and anti-democratic. His views do not belong in any mainstream political dialogue. His is the ideology of the gutter and the fist and the boot. He lies about his true aims and so the truth must be made to be heard.

If it forces the likes of fairplay to make a choice and go to the BNP then fine, he doesn't matter. Most rational people, when they know what the BNP is really about, wouldn't touch it with someone else's bargepole. I am only bothered about *those* people.
