Stop this slaugher

Ugly racist attacks on the increase since 11th of September.

Imagine if three young Asian men had been murdered in cold blood by white racists since September 11th. Imagine also that a young Asian girl had been gang raped, brutally beaten and left for dead in the same subway where one of the innocent victims had been stabbed to death. We'd never hear the last of it would we? But these terrible crimes have been committed on English streets since September 11th. So why aren't the TV and national papers full of anguish about the evils of racism and the way in which mobs of hate-filled thugs have brutally snuffed out innocent lives? Why have there been no TV interviews with grief-stricken parents or brothers and sisters demanding justice and action to save others from the same fate? You guess it! Because all the defenceless victims are white. And the perpetrators are British Muslims. And, as you've probably worked out, in multiracial Britain, white victims don't count, and Muslims don't do anything wrong.

Just look at the brutal record and at the media cover up:

17-yr-old Ross Parker. Peterborough. Hacked to death by a gang of Asians from a Muslim area on the edge of the city centre last autumn. The following day police and local whites were taunted by young Muslims shouting support for Osama bin Laden. The murder got a few lines in a couple of newspapers, but apart fromt his family and friends, Ross is already forgotten.

Unnamed girl. Peterborough. Gang raped and beaten by unidentified Asians from the same area. The attack was so brutal that police are treating it as attempted murder. The national media ignored it.

17-yr-old Owain Leeson. Sheffield. Beaten around the head and face and then stabbed to death with a large-bladed knife. Owain was on his own, outside a nightclub, when he was attacked by a gang described by police merely as "Asians" but in fact from Sheffield's large Muslim community. Owain's murder was not covered by any news media outside Yorkshire.

19-yr-old Gavin Hopely. One of three friends chased by a gang of thugs into the Muslim enclave of Glodwick. The other two escaped but Gavin was cornered and beaten for twenty minutes by six men. He never recovered conciousness and died in hospital a few days later. The attack and Gavin's death briefly made TV and radio news but were all but ignored by most newspapers.

Between them, the three murdered boys and the brutalised young girl got less media coverage than the one Afghan taxi driver who was inexcusably beaten up and severly injured in London a few days after September 11th.

This constant display of media double standards is now causing almost as much resentment and hatred among ordinary whites as the wave of attacks itself. It's time to get the problem of murderous racist assaults on white people into the open. It's time to stop avoiding facts and to start looking for solutions. The journalists, police chiefs, and old party politicians who conspire to hush it all up will otherwise have the blood of more innocent victims on their hands in the long, hot summer ahead.
