15 Year old BNP Supporter convicted of racial harassment


Dear All

Yesterday, I wrote a post that Nick Griffin who was assaulted was entitled to the full protection of the law.

On the other side of the racial divide that protection equally applies to people from ethnic backgrounds.

Here is a story which highlights in my opinion who the BNP influence has corrupted society.

A teenage BNP supporter who drove a classmate to the brink of suicide has been convicted of racial harassment, the youth only 15, subjected his female victim to months of racist abuse.

This type of bullying has a devastating effect on their victims; the verbal abuse was considerable as she was called; 'wog, c**n, n****r, gorilla and golliwog' by her tormentor.

The girl feared reporting the abuse would make him become violent and instead suffered in silence and during a living hell for four months before she attempted suicide in January this year.

As with all bullies; the youth tried to actively try to enlist other youths in this campaign of terror. This sorry tale only came out into the public domain after she tried to kill herself by overdosing on pills.

This little girl ended up hospitalised and then sectioned in a psychiatric hospital for several weeks in order to receive help. Since her ordeal she has more less been out of school ever since but now she has a fresh start and is due to attend a new school in a different part of the country.

As with all instances of bullying getting the authorities to deal with it is a struggle both the Police and the School dragged their heels.

The mother says;

“When I first informed the school, they as good as called me a liar. I then had a long battle convincing the police to take this seriously”.

That is the reality of corrupt Britain; the authorities don’t want to act unless they are pressured.

This case has good aspects and bad aspects to it is the first successful prosecution of a schoolchild for racial abuse in the UK and an recognition of the failure that spawned such people who have no respect for society or people.

David Cameron talks of “broken Britain” as a soundbyte; it goes deeper than just broke.
