There seems to be some big Anti-Muslim drive in the states at the moment when in actuallity the States have a smaller pro-capita muslim population then the UK and Europe.

The BNP is playing on the concerns of immigration (Muslim and Non-Muslim) and that is the worry. They're trying to incite racial hatred and they're doing all too well. In heavily segregated minority communities, racially motived violence is alarmingly high. (Although I don't trust all the figures on this one because definining a crime differently from a racially motivated crime is difficult)

The BNP is no less worrying then the KKK. They're a quasi-political associated with Neo-Nazi links

I'm concerned at the Anti-Muslim bigotry the states seems to be spouting. I wonder if the fact a hard-core chrisitian and his cronies are in power at the moment may have anything to do with this.

"I've oft been told by learned friars
That wishing and the crime were one
And heaven punishes desires
As much as if the deed were done.

If wishing damns us, you and I
Are damned to all our hearts content.
Come then we may at least enjoy
Some pleasure for our punishment..."
