This Saturday, around 700 English Defence League (EDL) members swarmed on Dudley, ready to down some British bitter and march around holding paranoid signs about Muslims in the name of patriotism.
The town was locked down, with police from all over the country manning both the roads and the giant metal roadblocks that had been set up along the march route. These were put in place to keep the EDL lot away from the 50 or so anti-fascists holding a counter-protest, as well as local Muslims who'd gathered near a mosque.
The atmosphere inside the EDL meeting pub was much as you'd expect: like a coach full of angry, pissed up ultras on their way to an away day. Members had flocked in from all over the UK, and pretty much everyone in there—bar one or two Sikh guys—was a white man aged between 20 to 50. Makeshift posters were handed out and, to their credit, it seemed that whoever's in charge of the EDL's crafts department has finally started to run the slogans ("No Mosques in the UK," "No Halal Butchers," "Rape Jihad," etc., etc.) through spellcheck.

Once everyone had drunk a belly-full, the majority started their march. Chants from the "non-racist" EDL ranged from "If you all hate Pakis clap your hands" to the ever-popular "No surrender to the Taliban"—a weird choice considering the Taliban has very little to do with the UK.
At the rally—called to protest a mosque being built in Dudley—speaker after speaker spoke of the evils of Islam and defiantly claimed the EDL was alive and kicking despite widespread reports the far right group is in decline. EDL top man Ian Crossland said, "We should send them back to the sandpit they all came from, and then turn that sandpit into glass."
Speaker Tim Burton added: "This mosque—what's it all about, then? This mega-mosque-strosity will ruin this little market town. The money they are spending on the minarets alone could pay for an alarm clock in Dudley, so there's no need for five calls to prayer a day."
As he said those words, a man in a balaclava shouted: "We will burn it down!"
After the rally ended the EDL melted away, leaving the town in the fleet of coaches they came in.
Colin Lunn from the EDL media team said: "It was a successful day for us. We made our point. It was a shame that the police operation stopped the people seeing what we are all about."
Of course, what he hadn't realized is that everyone already knows what they're all about: wasting police time, getting drunk in public, being confused about the difference between moderate Muslims and radical extremists; and worrying about the non-existent threat of Sharia being implemented in the UK.

Overall, 29 people were arrested, with 25 taken in to prevent an imminent breach of the peace and later released without charge. One man is still in custody relating to matters with another police force; another was charged with assaulting a police officer and will appear in court later this month; and two fixed penalties were issued for obstructing the police and public order.
Chief superintendent Chris Johnson said: "While West Midlands Police has no power to ban people from exercising their democratic right to express their opinions through protest, we have been planning the policing operation for months. Local officers have been meeting regularly with organizers, councillors, business leaders, community representatives, and others to share information on the protests."
The police threw an estimated £1 million ($1.52 million) at the operation stopping EDL violence, and succeeded. Whether the taxpayer will think it was money well spent is a debate for another day.

Racists are the same everywhere: poor, uneducated (usually white) trash usually flocks to that ideology.
Edit: Whoa, would you look at all those boxes. The closet racists are coming out of the woodwork.

VICE recently released a mini-documentary about the KKK... man, some of those guys looked like they had "retarded inbred, do not pay attention" carved on their foreheads! Way to play out the stereotype.
lotta facemasks there

i can't even believe the cops would have something like that at their disposal

Those must be the pussies running their mouths all the time, but never do anything. If they're too afraid of showing their face, I'd straight up laugh at the cunt who said he'd burn down a mosque.

Years and years of dealing with hooligans and all kinds of rabid football fans had led to that, I guess. :v:

Beer and stupid.
What a great combination.

Hate groups are all the same, it's only the names and symbols that change. The ideas, the motives, the actions, it's all the same people making the same mistakes in new faces.

Really?! Why do you hang out with that guy? :P
The title should be fixed. You can't say all 700 people were racists. I bet less than 50 are. People are just tired with islams expansion and progression into europe and want it to stop. i wonder why you post this but don't post that several thousand muslims protested against freedom of speech in the uk against charlie hebdo. Are they not racists for attacking western and white values?

I said I knew him, I don't hang out with him. He was and always has proven to be a horrible little cunt who enjoys fighting, drinking and was a known bully at school in bottom grade of every class.
Looking back on his Facebook, seems he lists himself as a 'Former soldier of the English Defense League'

No sane person would hang out with a bunch of drunk racists, not only because this demonstration achieves absolutely *nothing*, but because you'll suffer guilt by association, depending on whatever dumb shit they want to break/burn/throw around.

I do concur that even from over here, Europe looks pretty "Easternized". However, plenty of people love to blow that out of proportion, so I take it with a grain of salt.

No, that's wrong. What you're against with, is people who migrate to a country and refuse to incorporate its local culture and language - which I agree. Basically, when you emigrate somewhere, you need to ask yourself what it is that you bring to the country where you want to go, because no country is a charity. There's not a single country on this planet that thinks "Gee, I wonder if I could import some Pakistanis today that I could train to be telemarketers and customer representatives". It doesn't mean they shouldn't emigrate, it only means they should seriously consider being skillful enough, and accepting enough, to fit into the country better. It just won't work the other way around... trying to force the rest of the population to be like it was in your native home.
That, I agree. But there is no such thing as a "white value", your color has nothing to do with what you are, and never will be.

"They're not racists"
"White values"
AMAZING
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;47110508]Blows my mind how people can say that Islamophobia isn't racism.[/QUOTE]
Islam is not a race. It can be any race. It's a religious and political ideology. it is not racist no more than being christianphobic is racist or caraphobic.

Alright mock white values. but if the tables are turned what if it was black values. Black pride day exists. Does it not exist to uphold black cultures and values. To say that black values dont exist is racist and likewise to say white values don't exist is hypocritical and racist too.

The difference is, black pride is taking pride in what you are despite society deeming you shit for the entire time your race has been interacting with europeans, which continues to this day. White pride is exclusively being prideful over perceived superiority over other races because of racism

Explain me, briefly, what is a "white value". Just name me one, that is intrinsecally and unabashedly [I]white[/I].

Islam in Europe hasn't caused a goddamn problem, the only thing that caused the shit with Charlie hebdo and other terrorist attacks were just a few hundred out of a few Million Muslims. So other reasons, these people are misinformed because they listen to typical racial and religious stereotypes.

You're hilarious.
BloodRayne, is it true you're from Bavaria - a place most Germans refer to as "The Texas of Germany"?
