"They're not rapists, they're enthusiasts!"

[theweaselking]

BNP member running for London Assembly in 2008:

"I've never understood why so many men have allowed themselves to be brainwashed by the feminazi myth machine into believing that rape is such a serious crime ... Rape is simply sex. Women enjoy sex, so rape cannot be such a terrible physical ordeal.

"To suggest that rape, when conducted without violence, is a serious crime is like suggesting that forcefeeding a woman chocolate cake is a heinous offence. A woman would be more inconvenienced by having her handbag snatched.

"The demonisation of rape is all part of the feminazi desire to obtain power and mastery over men. Men who go along with the rape myth are either morons or traitors."

For bonus points, he was asked about the quotes, and had this to say:

"I was trying to make the point that there are two kinds of rape," he said. "There is stranger rape and there is so-called rape by somebody the woman knows"

So.

Any bets on what you find when you look into *his* past?

Probably a whole lot of polesmoking.

I'm gonna assume you mean him being on the receiving end of said act, because any other interpretation is going to make me want to bash my head against the keyboard almost as much as the original post.

...oh, right. Because every rape apologist has seekrit hummasexsual leanings?

Okay, now that I've vented that out, I should probably explain that the prior string of characters is resultant of me smashing my head on the keyboard. Because seriously, how else can someone respond to something so rage-inducing it... ARRRGH! No words.

Ah TWK, you and your Onion posts. This one was obvious by its absolute insanity and inhumanity. Allow me to not investigate further and assume that no one is really _that_ psycho.

(Jason, hon? I know you mean only the best. But if you want to have serious discussions about this kind of thing, please remember that they often involve people who don't have the luxury of making that inaccurate, uninformed assumption.)

It's the BNP. They are racist scum. For the past few years, they have been trying to hide behind a smokescreen of respectability, but bit by bit their true nature is being revealed. Like Nick Griffin who when asked why he had shared a platform with Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke, could only say "Duke was a non-violent figure."

After reading that, I hope it's a family history of extremely nasty cancers in the genital region.

Wow. Angry!

[cuddlycthulhu.livejournal.com]

Bah, cancer.

Leprosy, now that's the ticket.

[catsidhe.livejournal.com]

Penile gangrene.

Note the datestamp on the article. I believe the scumbag's out of office now.

He was fortunately never voted in.

There are some people who, while walking down the streets, should randomly have hammers thrown at them all the time.

This is such a man.

Sacked! so fast, they retroactively did it in APRIL of TWO YEARS AGO.

[icecreamempress.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I was confused. "HOLY FUCK THERE'S ANOTHER ONE?!?" I thought, but it was the same one.

[silmaril.livejournal.com]

I nearly had gum fall out of my mouth.

Excuse me while I try not to hyperventilate.

[flemco.livejournal.com]

Folks, this is the BNP.

They're the teabaggers of the UK, and have been around for a while. The English have allowed this to go on because they are polite.

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

You've got theferrett, who provided my title quote, but at least he's not running for office.

"To suggest that rape, when conducted without violence..."

You enjoy making my head explode, don't you.

[viloki9.livejournal.com]

It's not anal rape in prison! It's a welcoming committee!

[cuddlycthulhu.livejournal.com]

We're not busting out your front teeth to hurt you, we're busting out your front teeth to make you a better facilitator. Remember, it's not like we're stealing your one prison pillow.

Chlorine, aisle 3, STAT...

Now I need to keep a special chocolate cake in my possession if I go over there. One baked with razors and nails, which I can lovingly feed him UP HIS ARSE.

CAN WE LYNCH THIS MOTHERFUCKER?

[fridgepunk.livejournal.com]

Lynch him? This goatshagging white-bellied-troutperson should be Polanski'd.

[lordbleys.livejournal.com]

Screw the article, the comments you're getting are far funnier.

"Feminazi myth machine"? Sweet leaping buddhas, it's like he's playing Bingo with my list of things that make me immediately decide that someone is Not Allowed In Polite Society.

[peanuthorst.livejournal.com]

Yeah, seriously, Feminazi Myth Machines™ should only be allowed in bad B-movies.

Some of us actually think rape's a crime because it's violating another person, not because feminists say so. (Correlation between feminists and people who say "rape is a crime" does not imply causation!)
