Oh please, get over yourself. Calling yourself a victim is a bogus way
of grabbing the emtionally charged moral high ground and legitimising your
whinging but it doesn't work anymore. People have seen through that particular
liberal trick.

Don't think of it as "hate crimes". Think of it as terrorism.

You got any evidence that white heterosexuals as a group feel alienated
by tolerance of others?

When that tolerance swings to positive discrimination then yes. And also
when that tolerance goes against the public good - ie I have zero tolerance
of the muslim women who cover their faces (france had the right idea there)


Who gives a flying **** what you personally think about veiled women? Do
you have the same antipathy to veiled nuns, or is it the potential
presence of a non-white face which rings your bells?


Oh dear, you're losing the argument so you're using the tried and tested
right-on debating technique of going off on one.

Obviously you're a bit hard of thinking but i'll explain - you asked about
white heterosexuals being alienated by tolerance - i'm white and straight.
And I feel alienated in some parts of london. So what I think does matter
a flying fsck in this case.


Read what I wrote, please. I asked about "white heterosexuals as a
group", not about one individuals personal prejudices. I suppose it's
got the merit of consistency, though - if you believe that all blacks,
all gays and all women are the same then it's a natural error to think
that everyone like you shares your believes. Well, either consistency or
egotism.

And why bring skin colour into it other than a hackneyed straw man argument
which you have learnt verbatim from the Big Bumper Book of Politically Correct
Debating Techniques?


Ah, "political correctness". The big, horrid bogey man. Scary.

You're the one who chose Muslim women and rastas as your objects of
detestation. I'm only working with what you give me here.

What , a sip of wine is the same as getting completely stoned?

What do white heterosexuals do which annoys you? Anything?


Plenty. But nothing to do with them being normal.


So people who aren't white and heterosexual annoy you simply by virtue
of not being "normal", do they? What a lovely, tolerant person you are.

Where did I call myself a victim?

You must surely have worked out that the point of terrorism - the
definition of terrorism - is to intimidate people beyond the immediate
circle of victims of a particular crime. When the IRA were blowing up
pubs, they did it not so much to kill the people in those pubs (they had
no idea who they were going to kill, and it didn't really matter) but to
threaten pub goers through the country.

Similarly the point of the London tube and bus bombings wasn't to kill
people on tubes and buses, but to paralyse the city by deterring people
from using tubes and buses.

So the initial crime stands, of course, and should be punished, but the
additional crime of terrorising the population also deserves punishment.
Don't you agree?

Don't think of it as "hate crimes". Think of it as terrorism.


Are you for real? You're coming across as a poor satire.


What else would you call a deliberate attempt to intimidate a subsection
of the population?

You may care to read a little about cognitive dissonance. It's what
happens when people try to hold two opposing ideas. Not generally a
problem until someone points out the conflict, then all sorts of things
break out: accusations of satire, liberalism, political correctness and
so on. All basically translate as "You've pointed out that I have
inconsistent views but I can't have inconsistent views so you must be
wrong and horrible and I hate you. Waaaaaaaah."

See the "Daily Mail" comments pages for many, many further examples.

Actually I think of it more as a pathetic crutch for feeble whingers who only
discover a pair of balls when in a large group and ironically have no tolerance
for anyone having a different opinion to theirs. Of course the irony is almost
always lost on them since most are not nearly as bright as they like to think

If they beat someone up to show that "We don't like faggots round here"
or "We don't like veiled Muslims round here" or "We don't like white
people round here" then the big pictures is certainly there.

If you'd prefer an indigenous British equivalent

No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend's were.
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.

As a slight aside, isn't it strange how since 9/11 the de facto "irish" (most
of them probably couldn't find Belfast on a map if it was lit up with flashing
neon lights) americans support for the IRA rather dwindled.

Funny how a dose of the reality of terrorism suddenly stops it being a trendy
cause to support. You could argue that if 9/11 had happened a couple of decades
ago a lot of yank funded deaths in northern ireland could have been prevented.

If I were you I'd worry more about the men in white coats.

Looks like a case of debating techniques as well as prejudices acquired
before the age of eighteen. Well before the age of eighteen.

It took me a while to work out your disordered thoughts.

I realise that you think that standing peacefully in Parliament Square
with a placard is the same type of thing as looting and arson in the
suburbs*. From your planet, I guess the whole of life on Earth is
kind of distant and looks pretty much the same to you.

*The police can tell the difference though. They brutally attack
people for doing the former, and stand back doing nothing about the
latter.

Why would that matter?


It would go some way to explaining the axe you are grinding.


Ah, you think that only gay people would care about gay people being
tortured to death. Well, that certainly fits with the rest of your
contributions to this thread.

Who is torturing bright and cheerful people to death?


Europop singers?

False.

If a homosexual is mugged *because* she is homosexual, it is a hate
crime. If she is mugged because some low-life wants cash for his drug
habit, it is not a hate crime, just a crime.


What happens if she believes it was because she is homosexual, but the
mugger disagrees? What standard of proof is needed?

IANAL, but I'm slightly uncomfortable with some classes of victims being
told their incident is "just" a crime. But I am somewhat biased as a
result of having been a young white male English-speaking locally-born
atheist heterosexual victim of an assault that I was quite lucky to survive.
