Well you can and most people do in point of fact, indeed I go further and say that many people judge other people by standards, which they are under the illusion they hold to, but in reality don't. The fact that 40% of those picked up by the Police in last summer's riots in which most claimed they were protesting about the threat to women, girls and children, had prior contact with the Police including convictions for offences of violence and abuse against women girls and children demonstrates this.

But in general I take your point, that somebody might be against immigration (excessive of course depends upon a definition as to what that means) which is reasonable, up until the point that they include unproven and inaccurate terms which demean the immigrant.

Its perfectly reasonable to be concerned about immigration, its not reasonable or acceptable IMO to then denigrate all immigrants through unproven and baseless accusations through prejudice. That surely is a standard which no reasonably civilised person would argue with?

As RA rightly says, when certain views (of whatever political leaning) cross the line into violence, intimidation etc. Or encouraging the same, that cannot be acceptable.
