Not really sure why everyone's acting all shocked about the AfD gains in Germany.

True, actually. The European people certainly can't be faulted on their toleration of mass migration. But there's a big difference between toleration of something and support for it.

If only they were less tolerant, things might meaningfully change...

Actually, what I'm waiting for is for a family affected by a European terrorist attack to contain someone who is engaged with this issue and uses it as a platform to speak out. This could be a game-changer as no-one would accuse someone who has lost a loved one at the hands of an Allan of being a racist bigot.

It could be like when Sarah Payne's mum became a respected voice on how to deal with *****philes, just because her daughter got nonced off and killed.

Unfortunately, the media will always go towards the bereaved person who bleats on well-meaningly about forgiveness and tolerance. They are seen as saintly, while the sort of person you describe would first be seen a vengeful and vindictive and would eventually be smeared by association with some right-wing group or other and thus discredited. It's how it works.

Almost as if forgiveness and tolerance were an intrinsic part of a Christian society

Sure, but such examples of forgiveness attract attention because they are the exception rather than the rule. Most normal people who have a loved one murdered by someone in the name of a certain ideology are unlikely to be terribly tolerant of that ideology from that moment forward.

You'll never find a liberal rape victim, as someone once said.

Though a few of Douglas Murray's anecdotes from his book do challenge that theory....

The Norwegian bloke who got bum-raped by a Somalian and then went on about how guilty he felt because the bloke had been deported.

I would not usually use the term, but the word 'cuck' would seem remarkably apt in that instance. That's racial tolerance manifesting as actual mental illness imo.

True. We saw this with one of the members of the Death Metal band that was performing at the Bataclan during the attack. The media were all over him - until they realised he was politically and socially conservative and he ended up getting banned from the reopening of the venue

I believe thon Millwall chappie who saved lives at the London Bridge attacks may have been downgraded from hero to racist thug.

Mind you, he was Millwall, so the latter was always a fair bet, wasn't it?

Yes, he doesnt appear to have left much to the imagination. His tirade included 'foreign ****s, rapist ****s, you people stink like ****'.....

Still.......he did fight off terrorists.
