Stokes Croft Painted with swastikas

AntiFashYouth | 18.10.2012 12:02 | Anti-racism

Anyone walking down Stokes Croft this morning would have been met with the horrific sight of Nazi graffiti and racist ranting’s!



The swastikas, sized 1 by 1 foot squared started from Rodak at the bottom of Nine Tree Hill, and seemed to finish at the BIMM building on Jamaica Street opposite Kings Square. The total number is thought to be around 10.
The “People’s Republic Of Stokes Croft“ Outdoor Gallery was subject to a racist rant within which the word “Niger” was used.
Other business that had been targeted included the Croft Live Music Venue and Flowers of Stokes Croft.
The Croft had played host to an Anti-Racist fundraiser gig featuring two very well-known Anti-Fascist punk and Oi bands in April earlier this year.
This act of Nazi graffiti was clearly an organised act, possibility carried out by a number of people.
If you see any graffiti of this nature you should photograph it before reporting it to the business owners and local authority. Clearly it is understandable if people are not willing to photograph or report such acts.
Swastikas are no less than symbols of serious hate. Whoever carried out this act - did so in order to raise awareness of their Nazi politics, and strike fear into those affected by the sheer, unjustified reign of terror brought down on millions of innocent people by Hitler’s Nazi party.
A similar act was carried out In Manchester in August;

An organised act? Pfft. So 1-2 idiots got their hands on some spraypaint and got busy. Big deal. Why magnify the act by giving it extra publicity online?

Just grab a can and paint over it. Job done.

Was down in Stokes Croft for the afternoon, the nice Arabian pastry shop was open with usual gentlemen outside smoking, chatting and drinking coffee. Thr Canteen had the usual hipsters hanging out and displaying their cool. Usual suspects around Turbo island, mad pisshead woman trying to breast feed a cat. Spent a couple of hours at the Freeshop, peeps coming in, donations turning up, absurd and bizzare convodations flying around. All in all usual Stokes croft affair, didnt hear anything about this.

Noticed Bindy being doen for last couple days, there was a tonne load of shit spam on newswire, which seems to be happening a lot recently!

It was working yesterday and is up and running now. It seemed to be hanging badly mid-afternoon today.

From the look of it someone's even cleaned up the spam.

A question

Is this the beginning of the nazi revolution in England? Oh wow! Great big something, ain't that shit! An idiot or two painted few svastikas and you make a large halo about it. No one was ever saying anything about the brighton street, everytime white passes by gets a projectile on his head and gets harassed by some drug dealers. Now that's gone because cops sorted it out, not you , biased antifa bullshit, you got nothing to do with antifascism, in fact most of you are fascists. laugh but that's true you nothing but hypocrite fools.
