    They weren't part of any organised groups though.

    Anti-free speech groups like Antifa and Hope Not Hate are very dangerous to society.

    Free speech should be sacrosanct otherwise you become China or North Korea.

    We can't have a situation where if you're not left-wing/ PC then you're a fascist and you must be silenced and that's what these people want.

    I listen and view with my own eyes and ears too. We both have access to the same information. Yet the 2 us come totally different conclusions.

    Why do you think that is?

    It's called confirmation bias.

    So ISIS should be allowed to promote their cause and recruit in our high streets?

    The groups you quote are not anti free speech, they are anti racist hate speech, itself illegal in the UK. Are you saying that people should be allowed to abuse other races, or argue that they are less able and deserving that UK residents? Are you arguing for changes in the law?

    The question is who do you listen to? who is NOT force feeding you. What Do You look at? Give us a list and lets see if they are not force feeding you as well.

    Ok I'm game gfire. So are you saying that you should be able to say whatever you want about another human being without any form of retribution or comeback? Does it have to be true? How will anybody know if its true? Does that mean I can come on here and make outrageous statements about you? You wouldn't be bothered surely because i am just exercising my right to free speech.




    At what point might you say that that Rolymiller has gone to far and should be banned?

    The left-wing fascist types like Antifa mock free-speech and call it "freeze peach", they want what they call "fascists" (which of course is actually them) to be silenced with violence.

    If people like them were in power they would silence them by jailing them or executing them, they are actually the same people as the ones running North Korea.

    You're the one who doesn't see the left-wing bias of the BBC.
