British Nazi Party accidentally hires Black D.J.

IT WAS A BIT OF A COCK-UP ..HE SOUNDED WHITE OVER THE PHONE
Dec 6 2004

BNP MAN'S AMAZING ADMISSION

By Daniel Thomas And Greig Box

BNP members who mistakenly hired a black DJ for their Christmas party proved yesterday they were not just racist but STUPID.

Official Bob Garner said: "There was a bit of a cock-up. The chap who booked him didn't realise. The DJ sounded white on the phone."
-snip-

Some members of the far right group were so outraged by the blunder they walked out of the hotel where their party was staged.

And those that stayed had to keep their bigoted beliefs secret instead of parading them in end of year speeches.
-snip-

"A lot of people weren't happy - I wasn't, really - and one or two walked out. But some younger members thought it was a bit ironic and danced away the night.

"Traditionally someone stands and says what's happened in the year or in the elections. But it was a bit difficult to say we were even the BNP. We even had to be careful what we said when we did the raffle so we didn't offend this guy.
-snip-

"No one expressed any ill-feeling towards the DJ. They didn't insult him or pick on him. Some walked out - but so what?
-snip-

"But as a party we don't have any animosity towards particular individuals. Our gripe is that the indigenous people feel our city is being overtaken by internationalism."

-----

Here's what I find fascinating:

You've got a bunch of guys who say they hate black people.

And then you get ONE black person in a whole room full of their Nazi friends.

What happens? They're all afraid to be RUDE to the black man! They won't even
give their speeches that say who they are or what they do, because they don't
want to make this ONE Black man uncomfortable!

How can you have a "hate group" that doesn't want the people they "hate" to feel
bad?

Maybe, if they would stop talking about BLACKS and just think about one black
PEOPLE, one black PERSON at a time, they would realize how stupid they are!

If they can feel bad about making one individual black person feel bad, why
can't they realize that when they hate the whole group, they're making a
milions of individual black people feel bad

And what happened then...?
Well...in England they say
That the Nazis' small hearts
Grew three sizes that day!

1. I have always thought
The BNP mainly targeted Asians and Jews rather than black people.

2. Fear-mongering loses most of its effectiveness when you are
confronted by what you've been told to hate - fear leading to hatred and all that.

Just like Iraq - "We're going to kill us some ragheads, fuck yeah!" can just as quickly turn into - "Dude, why the hell did you just light up that family?".

Maybe it's a cultural thing, I've yet to hear of lynchings on a large scale in Britain, or any Robert Byrd draggings.

5. Reminds me of a friend of mine who got on the KKK mailing list.
He can sound quite white on the phone, so he was able to pull it off when these folks did a followup call. It was quite hilarious, the material they sent, yet scary at the same time, for these fools were serious.

He did it in the spirit of knowing the enemy.

18. Well here in Missouri, its all about having a cross between
A southern drawl and a country twang, somewhat nasal. Tighter vowel sounds, a more rapid patter. Sounds like there are times you have a corn cob up your ass.

Any other questions?

6. It's much easier to hate a group rather than an individual.
Funny story. But it's The Mirror, not The Times Mirror.

Also, it's British National Party, not Nazi, although it's basically the same thing.

There was quite a funny story a few years ago about the Banc National de Paris, when a delegation came to Birmingham (I think) for a conference. They booked a table under "BNP" at an Indian restaurant, and were horrified and shocked by the service they received ...

But this entire story is comedy gold. I intend to blog it right away ...

7. Who'd they hire? John McWhorter?
Larry Elder? Ken Hamblin?

They'd certainly fit in where philosophy is concerned.

8. They didn't feel bad about offending a black guy.
They're just cowards. It's as simple as that.

11. Those British....just so damned polite. Their hate groups
can't even hate when decorum demands otherwise.

12. It isn't that profound
They just didn't want a party without music. They couldn't say what they wanted to because the music would walk out.

15. If this story is for real
its absolutely hilarious. The irony is priceless. I can just see how some hate groups are viewing this story..."In my day we would have hung em. No stones in these new pansy racialists."
