The Canadian identified neo-fascists terrorist organisation 'The Proud Boys' Australian chapter member Jarrad Searby has been filmed making threats at the workplace and home of a man in Wodonga Victoria. Searby and three other men went to both the mans workplace and home to make threats, because Searby believed the man had made negative comments about him on social media. The videos of these acts of intimidation against so called "anti-fascists" were posted online. The man was not at his workplace at the time, so Searby yelled at staff; “There’s three of us here today, next time there will be 10 [and] after that 20, we’re gonna start protesting out the front until he’s removed. It’s not acceptable … [we] expect something to happen.” When Searby and two other men turned up at the home of the man, no one answered the door, Searby is filmed yelling; "We'll come back later!" This action in Australia by Proud Boys has drawn praise from the organisations American leadership.

Does this remind you of the intimidation tactics used in the past by fascists?

Dear LEGO

Good on ya. Your views are recognized.

1. Thanks for your help to the Inquiry.

2. Life is complex, like Joe said http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?article=21295&page=0#376143

3. In the words of Donald: "We love you. Go home in Peace."

At last 9 Australians that I can remember have been murdered overseas by Muslims doing exactly what their God and holy books tell them to do.

At least 3 Australians have been murdered in Australia and hundreds more narrowly missed being murdered in Australia in thwarted terrorist plots by Muslims doing exactly as their god and holy books instructed.

No Australians wither within or without Australia have been murdered by "far right" Australians. There is no central official organization ordering so called "far right" (meaning anyone who opposes multiculturalism and Muslim immigration) giving official instruction to so called "far right" people ordering them to kill anybody.

Yet you obsess over "far right" people being violent and avert your eyes at Muslims killing on the official written instructions of their God.

Hi LEGO,

Thanks for highlighting the dangers of Muslim extremism for Australians. Mate, you're forgetting the 88 Australians, of the 202 people murdered in Bali by Muslim extremist in a most reprehensible act of violence, we must never forget that Any kind of violent extremism, be it religious, political, sectarian, what ever, is to be condemned by all who respect peace and human life.

You will not find one word of defence from me of the Islamic religion, or Muslim extremism, which is a danger not only to us, but the whole world in general. Just as I don't condemn billions of Christians for the actions of radical minority, I don't condemn billions of Muslim for what a minority do in the name of their religion.

Just an observation, I have a good friend, a Turkish Muslim, known him for years, My mate and his family are just as Australian as you and I. Gee, when his kids were little he would put up the Xmas tree, presents the lot, he would say; "In Australia do as the Australians do, besides I don't want my kids missing out." We would go over and have Xmas drinks together, my friend enjoyed a good scotch, his wife liked a white wine, always put on a great spread of yummy food. As my friend would say concerning alcohol; "What Allah don't see, doesn't hurt. I once pulled him up for eating cabanossi sausage at my place. "Mate, that cabanossi contains pork, didn't you know. His reply; "No it don't, its chicken, from a four legged chook." My mate is a rather flexible Muslim.

To Paul1405.

I think I am making some progress with you. I pointed out previously on this topic that while lefties defend Muslims by saying that most Muslims are good people, and it is just the minority who give the majority a bad name, they don't apply the same standard to Nazis. To lefties, all Nazis are bad. And you said as much on page 12 when you made a sarcastic aside to Bronwyn about the "good Nazi" Albert Speer. Your implication was self evident, you thought that the idea of a good Nazi was preposterous.

Then on page 14 you said that all Nazis were not really true Nazis. Did the penny drop? And you realised that implying that all Nazis were bad was indefensible? So you retreated to a more defensible position?

I agree that there are good Muslims. And good Germans. And good Japanese. And good Russians. But when these good people are the subjects of a totalitarian regime which preaches war against my people, and they as an identifiable group either support or at least never criticise this totalitarian regime, only a fool would not regard all of them as your people's enemies.

My uncle Charlie was in Bomber Command in WW2, and he was part of a crew which dropped tons of bombs on mainly German women, children and old people. The German men were at the front. He and his crew members did not differentiate between "good" Germans and "bad" Germans. When you realise that an entire group of people, to one extent or another, support a hostile regime which really does want to exterminate your people, then all of them are your enemies.

Islam can not reform itself. For one thing, Mohammad claimed that this misogynist, war mongering religion was perfect and it could never change. The other reason is, because of people like your good self, who make excuses for Muslims, the same Muslims who either accept the violent behaviour directed at non Muslims by Muslims, or at least never criticise those they see as fighting for their religion

Hi LEGO,

"while lefties defend Muslims by saying that most Muslims are good people, and it is just the minority who give the majority a bad name".
Of the approximate 2 billion Muslims in the world I find it hard to believe that a significant number are inherently bad. What evidence can you provide that shows a significant number, say 100 million, 5%, of Muslims are actively behaving in a manner outside what you accept as reasonable.

I referred to Albert Speer as the "Good Nazi", a description given to the man by others, non Nazi's, not me. It was accepted for years as a true characterisation of Speer, believed to be an exception among Hitler's Nazi elite, until the evidence exposed Speer to be as evil as ALL the others of Hitler's inner circle. Today active far right extremists show themselves by their words and actions that they to are as bad as any Nazi from past history.
