This is one of the reasons I support anti-defamatory laws and wish our country would adopt a similar attitude: Young Singers Spread Racist HateAny thoughts or opinions?

I don't have a problem with people who wish to preserve their own culture. But let others have their too. Geez. I personally think diversity is a good thing. If you have a bunch of people who, put together, have only one strength, then they all have the same weakness and it's easy for them to fall. But a crowd of diverse people have different strengths and weaknesses and it would be harder for them to fall. I don't understand how people like that can be so brave. They've got a lot of guts angering so many other people. Imagine if they had someone just as radical as them, but against their kind. I think that may be one of their biggest fears. And why would you want a bunch of the same kind of people anyway? Easier to blend in? Are you that desperate for conformity?

I think that is just sick. I wish kids could be taken away from parents who promote those beliefs....idiots.

Whoa two 13 year old girls are Neo-Nazis!
The funny thing is that race is a 19th century concept that is totally out of date and talk of a "pure race" is absolutely bullshite.
I wish I knew my background...

Well then that would be a lesson in which you must learn. I think a lot of people go through a similar problem that you may be cenk. And that's too bad... #no#
Didn't Hitler have a similar problem? What's with his mother's heritage?

Well I've got all sorts of cool background in my family. It is all from Europe or US for the last few hundred years which sadly just gets called "White" and in general is not considered anything of value. I still waiting for those check your race things on forums to include the tribe of Ephraim as I’d love to check it off.

i downloaded the video for one of their songs and it was absolutely shocking ... crap song, crap video, the guitar sounded out of tune, the fiddle was playing the wrong notes and their singing was pathetic (couldn't make out the words and they were just shíte in general) - i could record a better version on my computer in about 10 minutes, absolutely shocking ...
i think it's sad that children are brought up to be bigots, but at the same time everyone should have the right to free speech so i'm not going to try and suppress stuff like this, personally.

littlepea would you try and suppress it if White people were the subject of hate abuse?

nope.
i'm not too bothered if it does end up getting banned, since you've got to draw the line somewhere and i don't think it would adversly affect people's rights if someone decided this was too much, but i'm not bothered if it isn't banned either and i don't think it's necessary to censor this sort of thing.
the scottish and english national anthems are pretty racist but i'd be pissed off if they banned the scottish anthem. "flower of scotland" is an anthem to get us all to rebel against the english and form our own nation, like when we stood up to king edward (longshanks, i presume) in the past. "god save the queen" has lines which refer to "bashing rebellious scots". apart from the fact that god save the queen is a crap song which makes me want to vomit whenever i hear it, it's potentially very offensive too.

I wouldn't say the British national anthem is racist. A bit too Christian maybe but not racist. We have good reason to hate the Scots you resisted our Englification efforts on you. God save the Queen is the most well known national anthem in the world.
But to be honest its pretty old fashoned now. I say get rid of this anthem and get rid of the Queen, she doesn't do anything anyway!
