Racist facebook groups

It seems that the American based on-line social networking group Facebook are unaware that in Britain racism is illegal !

There seems to be groups that have appeared which facebook does not regulate full of racist abusive comments like the ones which oppose the proposed march through Wootton Bassett by islam4uk i personally oppose the march but sadly just signing a petition which would be my way of expressing my objection to such a march is not enough for some folks who seem to think its better to start up facebook groups where the real nature of some peoples reasoning is shown up in all its nasty extremist ultra right wing racist xenophobic narrow minded sad pathetic nature.
i would say to these people what did you make of your beloved leader Nick Griffin trying to score cheap political points by turning up in Wootton Bassett last November when the people of Wootton Bassett specifically asked politicians to stay away.This country does not need extremism to sort its social and economic problems out Britain does not need political extremism be it of the far right or the far left it also does need religious extremism be it Islamic or Christian fundamentalism......Britain was for many years moving in the right direction in terms of race relations i think that sport and music were instrumental in changing many peoples perceptions sadly the actions of madmen and women (the terrorists) plus an illegal war in Iraq plus a now very badly managed campaign in Afghanistan plus the corrupt/weak/incompetent behaviour of our mainstream politicians are sending some of our less well educated/ignorant citizens in the direction of the far right "AND YOU CAN READ THEIR RACIST VIEWS ON FACEBOOK"

yes I know FB is owned partially by a CIA front so Iam careful. I try to be a true democrat & peacekeeper, so I challenge any stupid comments on FB, help get them removed & educate the many people on there who need it as much as I can. That said many other whiteys like me on this facebook,gp are saying alot in defense of mainstream islam& challenging the extremists+BNPers & the admin seem to be doing a reasonable job, though after intel on IMC of course many of us are wary.
Fcuk Choudray& Griffin!, no more PNAC-G20-Bilderberg tryanny!
The more educated & calm people on FB who know the score the better.

inciting racial hatred is illegal

While bad in the U.K inciting racial hatred is illegal it is not illegal to be rascist i think(unfortunately) and so unless rascist groups are actually inciting it we can't do anything about it really

I'm sorry, but if you think that being racist should be illegalised, then you are not an anarchist.
