Similarly I don't give a monkey's if Peter Stringfellow is Jewish. I find a great deal of the site to be offensive.<BR/><BR/>But the fact remains that BNP-style sources like that are often the only place where murders like those of Anthony Farrell are reported. That's a pity - but if the papers, the BBC, and no-one else on the left or centre is doing it then these people are the only place for such info.Labanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12031578024191117985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5187043.post-1134395328179676392005-12-12T13:48:00.000+00:002005-12-12T13:48:00.000+00:00A comprehensive list of "white" victims can be fou...A comprehensive list of "white" victims can be found here <BR/>http://thefallenlist.blogspot.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5187043.post-1134158092781935072005-12-09T19:54:00.000+00:002005-12-09T19:54:00.000+00:00Ross Parker, Christopher Yates and Gavin Hopley ar...Ross Parker, Christopher Yates and Gavin Hopley are the names which spring immediately to mind - but I don't know who the others are - which sas something about the media coverage.<BR/><BR/>Isiah Young-Sam is another victim of racist murder whose case has had little publicity. Like Anthony Walker, he was a young black Christian and by all accounts a nice guy. He was stabbed to death because of his race - but his killers weren't white, so he didn't get the full BBC News 24 treatment.<BR/><BR/>Some black and Asian victims of racist attack get little publicity too - if they're old. I'm tryng to remember the name of the poor Asian guy who was killed in an underpass a year or two back by two lowlife.Labanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12031578024191117985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5187043.post-1134131724933293732005-12-09T12:35:00.000+00:002005-12-09T12:35:00.000+00:00Here's my email:Dear Sirs Jane Garvey asked “Has ...Here's my email:<BR/><BR/>Dear Sirs<BR/> <BR/>Jane Garvey asked “Has there ever been a white victim of a racist murder in this country?”. Indeed there has.
