Fascist thugs attack Nick Lowles in Havering

tim | 03.03.2013 13:09 | Anti-racism

Fascists attacking free speech

Nick Lowles and other anti fascists were attacked yesterday by Nazis, who forced the campaigners out Havering. The fascists formed a vigilante squad, similar to the muslim extremist patrol in East London. The fascists have posted videos on the internet bragging about their activities. Lowles was threatened with violence and ordered to leave the area, as were several other anti fascists. This another set back and proves that fascists are a potential menace. hopefully the incident will be investigated by the police, and some arrests should be definite in the near future.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=168Veee6tWU

Please stop referring to these knuckle-dragging nationalists as fascists.

I have freinds who are fascists and I resent you trying to associate these ape people with them. You may not like genuine fascism, and you might even start your usual face-spitting when you meet them, but these EDL people are just kiddie fiddling drunks and drug addicts. You can tell they take drugs and drink too much because they all slur their speach. Its a sign of brain damage brought on by excessive self medication.

These people are not fascists, you do yourself no favours by claiming that they are.

The only reason these proles do things like you see in the video is because they know you will not fight back.

Honest question

03.03.2013 14:10

I don't expect an answer to this but....

Say the posters on here or any Antifascists had caught say, Kevin Carrol, Nick Griffin or any other "fascist" alone on the streets. Would you have sent him away unharmed or beat the shit out of him?

I think the latter. The EDL lads, although angry towards Lowles acted calmly and without violence. Something that you folks on the left would not have done.

Come on, be honest. If you saw Nick Griffin on the streets would an antifascist group just let him walk away with only a few harsh words? I think not, you've violently attacked him and other BNP members in the past.

To me, that gives the EDL the moral highground here for not attacking Nick Lowles, which they could have easily done and if the boot was on the other foot, the opposite would have happened.

I expect this post to be deleted quickly because everyone knows you lot hate when you get criticised and lack the intellectual capacity to argue with someone... especially when said someone is correct in everything he has said.

The Welling incident proves my point

03.03.2013 14:23

9 Antifascists attacking 2 Nazis... that's a bit cowardly isn't it?

Here you are crying about the EDL telling Lowles to get out of the area... and NOT resorting to using violence or threats yet when you come across some Nazis you don't hesitate to use violence.

Who has the moral highground? The group who encounter a known antifascist and let him go with just a few harsh words.

Or the group who encounter two fascists and immediately resort to violence and gang attacks?


I'd say the EDL group. I don't see why you lot are whining about the EDL here when they acted better than you lot would if you caught a small group of fascists out on their own...

They acted with restraint when you could tell they were angry. They could easily have beat the shit out Lowles but didn't.

Nick Lowles was in complete ownership of that situation. Had he laughed at you, gave you the finger and told you to fuck right off, you would have knifed him to death, run away then and not posted the video on-line.

Don't kid yourselves that you are non-violent. You are just trying to present yourselves as though you were us.

Presumably, you think that might somehow fool the readers of this site into supporting you.

Personally, I think you have nothing at all to offer us.

So I suppose this is the point where you fuck right off.

Lowles looked like he was shitting himself but the lads with him looked well in control and didn't seem overtly worried TBH. They looked well capable of defending themselves. Wish they'd gone for it and we would have seen how brave the gobshite with the flat cap really was

two things wrong here

03.03.2013 16:00

First the thread says anti fash attacked there is no attack on the vidio. Seccond you turn up wanting waiting and looking for trouble, you are provoking trbl and harsh reality white working class men could realy hurt you if they wanted to. In my view and the majority of people you bring it on yourselves if you get hurt. The difference btwn us is you go screaming to the police the cops you brag about hateing.

Why does he deserve a smack?

03.03.2013 17:54

Because he has a different political viewpoint than you? That's a bit fascist isn't it?

Typical lefties, always wanting to resort to violence. You say he deserves a smack, such a shame that you lefties always need superior numbers to try anything. Like at Welling when it took 9 of you cowards to beat up those two Germans.

"Because he has a different political viewpoint than you? That's a bit fascist isn't it?"

I watched that video and I never saw a political argument!!! I saw some knuckle-dragger trying to pretend to be a man but no political argument.


"Typical lefties, always wanting to resort to violence. You say he deserves a smack, such a shame that you lefties always need superior numbers to try anything. Like at Welling when it took 9 of you cowards to beat up those two Germans."

The knuckle-dragger in the video was the first to bring the subject of violence up, and the reason for that of course is because he was most conscious of wanting to be the one to avoid it because it was highest in his mind from the start. The man deserves a smack.

I say it again, the bitch in the cap deserves a slap.

Man, cap, slap.

Am I getting through?

Strawman argument... You're not an RAF pilot!! Or a WW2 resistance fighter. Or a commando.
And you're not fighting the Germany! And there isn't actually a world war on either. And we arn't under threat of invasion.. And there arn't any ariel bombardments going on or V1 rockets falling from the skies.

What you are encountering is some louts drinking beer who are trying (rather successfully i might add) to wind you up and get under your skin. This is very, very different to a armed Panza division rolling through Manchester with infantry support doing house-to-house with grenades and flame throwers. An EDL supporter with a can of stella is very, very different to an SS soldier with an MP40. They are two completely different things you thompson.

@still lolling

04.03.2013 21:56

Sorry to pick you up on a point of semantics, but you don't understand the meaning or relevance of the word "were" (past tense) in context of the statement you were attempting to criticize. The argument expressed by that statement is what's referred to as a "comparison" or as a "metaphor", and you, Sir, are what's referred to as a "fool" (look it up)

Bearing in mind that most Anti-Fascists aren't militants, even then, to argue that both contemporary militant Anti-Fascists and WW2 RAF pilots could both (from a certain - most probably Fascist - point of view) be described as "thugs" is not (as you pretend) an assertion of the blatantly ridiculous statement that modern-day militant Anti-Fascists are literally RAF pilots; and the fact that this is all totally over your head neatly illustrates why your right-wing propaganda campaigns are, to use the vernacular, "fucked" (the main reason the BNP has been successfully put back 30 years and why the EDL is now a pale shadow of its never-very-impressive former self is because none of you lunk-heads are actually very bright)

Have a nice day ;)

English is a language as well as a nationality

not lolling - just starring in open mouthed astonishment at your nonsense

04.03.2013 22:36

oh deary me, the desparation. Sorry, i'm surprised you are still here with all the back peddling you have done.

Let me point out your school boy errors:

Firstly... a definition of an "Anti-fascist thug", and also a fascist thug.
"Thug" is defined as "a violent person, typically a a criminal".

So an "Anti-fascist thug" is a "violent anti-fascist who is also likely a criminal"
Given that street violence is illegal, then it follows that a violent fascist/anti-fascist is a criminal too.

Now then. I do not believe that your metaphor of an honourable RAF officer performing his civic duties in the war can be a very HONEST metaphor/comparison given that most sane people would not describe an RAF officer as a "violent criminal" whilst doing their duty of defeating the nazis.

Therefore, your comparison/metaphor/horse-manure is utter bollox.
A violent anti-fascist criminal thug is NOT an RAF officer who was fighting in the war and is also not 'metaphorically' an RAF officer fighting in the war. In fact, they are completely different with NO comparison what so ever.



>> Bearing in mind that most Anti-Fascists aren't militants
Correct. But a strawman argument since some are militants, and some do criminal 'thuggery' don't they. In fact, there are some in jail rigfht now who are convicted or said crimes.

>> even then, to argue that both contemporary militant Anti-Fascists and WW2 RAF pilots could both (from a certain - most probably Fascist - point of view) be described as "thugs"
When did I argue that WW2 RAF pilots are thugs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where have i actually written that statement you dumbass! You implied all that shite not me!!! lol dumbass!

>> is not (as you pretend) an assertion of the blatantly ridiculous statement that modern-day militant Anti-Fascists are literally RAF pilots
No............. but some are in jail....... convicted of violence attacks on the streets.....ergo they are violent criminals, and thus they can be factually described as "thugs" according to the definition in the oxford english dictionary. Try and wangle your way out of that little factoid and stop going on about something that happened in somebody else's lifetime
Let us be clear:
Modern day anti-fascists residing in jail for violence -->ARE NOT<-- RAF pilots.
To produce some argument based on some metaphor is nonsense.

At the end of the day, my point was:
There are fascist thugs and there are anti-fascist thugs.... there is little difference between the two. They are both violent criminal thugs.

To argue that anti-fascist thugs "do not exist" and are all actually, metaphorically, born-again RAF pilots and are therefore holier than thou is utter horse manure.

The only good thing you have done is not to try claim a victory because someone happened to make a typo whilst using a keyboard..... like some of these cretins have. If that is the whole basis of their argument - that they can type better - then they need to get out more.
