Morrissey talks racism, 'left-wing' Hitler and says that 'Sadiq Khan can not talk properly' - NME

Morrissey interview.

Quote:

"As far as racism goes, the modern Loony Left seem to forget that Hitler was Left wing,” said Morrissey. “But of course, we are all called racist now, and the word is actually meaningless"

Quote:

“It’s just a way of changing the subject. When someone calls you racist, what they are saying is ‘hmm, you actually have a point, and I don’t know how to answer it, so perhaps if I distract you by calling you a bigot we’ll both forget how enlightened your comment was’.”

He's actually right :D

Quote:

“London is second only to Bangladesh for acid attacks. All of the attacks are non-white, and so they cannot be truthfully addressed by the British government or the Met Police or the BBC because of political correctness.

That will upset a few but he's not wrong.

Moz >>>

I thought some white blokes have jumped on that wagon, no?

There have been some, not many though.

All I got from that is that calling Morrissey a bigot makes him too distracted to remember what he just said. Poor guy.

just 6% of all suspects in London over the last 15 years were Asian.

I’m just going to point this out because many Americans think Asian is synonymous with Chinese, that means according to the BBC only 6% of the suspects are “Asian” which includes Pakistan and Bangladesh and the entire Middle East, so besides the white outliers it’s the entire non-African Muslim world. So to spell it out more directly only 6% of the known suspects are Muslims. The article does go on to say that 20% of the suspects go unknown. Even when assuming the absolute worst about the Muslim population that still leaves 75% of these crimes committed by people who, whatever they are, aren’t Muslims.

PS

Quote:

'White Europeans' comprised 32% of suspects, and African Caribbeans 38% of suspects

Moz didn't say they were all committed by Muslims. He said non white, not quite true, but according to the BBC, the majority of the attacks were committed by non whites.

Moz :cool:

I like Morrissey but 32% is 32% too damn many.

Whitey gots to chill.

Agree, Moz seems a decent guy.

While we're pointing things out.. Americans think Muslim is synonymous with Middle Eastern, but Muslims don't have to be Middle Eastern. Crazy, right?
