You're an idiot. The NPD didn't create it. The SVP of Switzerland did. The NPD stole it, as did the FN of France.


Go f**k yourself Tequila. Its irrelevant who created it in the first place, what matters is what it stands for

The SVP used it in a campaign to deport criminal foreigners (the Ausschaffungsinitiative). The other parties - like the NPD - used it to mean something different.

The only reason they would decide to use something associated with deporting "criminal foreigners" in the context of immigration is to create an association between this initial poster and the foreigners in ones own country. Thus implying they are all criminal and unwelcome.

From what I remember the SVP really weren't happy about their poster art being stolen and they are worlds away from the NPD and their, erm, ilk.

And no, not all foreigners are criminal and unwelcome. That's BNP talk and I find it disgusting. I don't like radical Islam though, and that's what the text on my version of the black sheep poster represents - i.e. jihad.

Does it really? I can see a black sheep with some Arabic writing being kicked off the Union Jack, therefore by extension out of the United Kingdom. It looks a lot like provocation for provocation's sake (look at me I'm so clever and so different).

You don't like radical Islam? Really? Well, what's to like? But to imply that these "foreigners" (which most of them are not as they are British citizens) should be deported puts you in pretty dodgy company.

If there's one thing history teaches us it's that the Nazis and their willing executioners weren't all that particular as to which minorities they weren't keen on they put in camps.

You may of course take some comfort from the fact that this site is hosted by the country of the first amendment. Over here, in Europe, slightly different standards regarding so called free speech apply.

As we say in Germany, No freedom for the enemies of freedom.

I disagree. I don't like the Holocaust denial laws. And I don't like radical Islam in the same way. What I want is for the non-Islamist population to be allowed to comphrehensively answer back. They can't at this moment. You try having a shop in Longsight that won't serve women in tarpaulins.

So are you allowing the ghettoisation of Muslims to continue then? Is your own backyard in order? I'd quite like to know the answer to this.

The ones who are foreigners we can and should be deporting. Frankly I don't care if they end up being tortured. Not my problem.

For the ones who are British citizens, that's a tad more tricky. I think a period of integration, deghettoisation and withdrawing any and all funds to religious groups (all of them) should do the trick. Also, we need a genuine democracy in this country... you know, something you haven't got either.
