Who's a threat again?

I happened to be doing a Google search on a British singer and somehow found myself looking at a forum of one of the most infamous white supremacist sites on the net, who were in a flap about the ancestry of said singer, and other well known performers.

One commenter was describing his "heartbreak" that Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page is 1/8th Chinese...

Among the vile comments that flowed from this:

"Its disgusting to see a White Male with an Asian Female and the monstrosities they create"

...Lots of bizarre remarks about Jews of course. Endless pseudo-scientific dribble. Frothing rubbish about the white people being at threat...

Now here's an observation:

If these people were embarrassing diplomats with the facts of what they actually said - instead of stirring up genocidal rants - the authorities would have launched cyber attacks on their site, leaned on every associated commercial institution to dump them, Fox News would be calling for their assassination, and various appendages of the US government would be looking for some law somewhere to say the First Amendment doesn't apply.

But they're 'just' Nazis, so why bother huh?

  3. It actually makes Page a bit more interesting knowing that he's 1/8 Chinese. Always believed that we are all mongrels. Who cares?

    Happy Boxing Day, Magpie!
