I saw the pictures on twitter showing the "Never surrender to Aslan" banner. Sounds like we're at war with Narnia Hmm

Oh and I saw a link to an EDL moron supporter talking about "Muslamic rayguns".

BriansBrain · 23/05/2013 22:36

Face book pages advising posters that it was an EDL (English Defence League) protest not EDF energy Hmm

"Seems the culls I have had to make before where effective in getting rid of the undesirables that had slipped through my net."

same here. i really was expecting to have to defriend lots of idiots but i am really relieved to not have found even one questionable comment on my newsfeed. yet.

RowanMumsnet · 23/05/2013 22:37

@DuttyWine

I saw someone comment on EDL's photo on fb... Something like... "That xxx should be sent back where he came from apart from the woman who stood over the man who was the same colour as him..." Wtaf????

I must stress I am not friends with the person someone I subsequently deleted shared an EDL photo so I had a nosey at the comments and was appalled.

[NOTE: post edited by MNHQ to remove racist term]

Hello - just to let you know, this post was reported because it quoted a gratuitously racist term, so we've edited that out now.

God - I shouldn't but Grin at 'muslamic ray guns'. I can see a big gap in the market for Idiot Seeking Missiles and Twat-o-Zord destruction systems. Mark my words. This time next year I'll be a millionaire Grin

Booyhoo · 23/05/2013 22:42

Aslan? aslan? i honestly cannot believe how bloody ignorant people are about things they appear so compelled to 'fight' against. Hmm

Lj8893 · 23/05/2013 22:50

Never surrender to Aslan!!!! That is just brilliant, what an idiot.

squeaver · 23/05/2013 22:50

You might be interested to know that the EDL recently protested in front of the Brighton Pavillion as they thought it was a mosque....

One of the attackers was originally from Essex I believe, so apparently we should send them back there.

Doodledumdums · 23/05/2013 22:57

ivykaty44....I have just realised that what I wrote made no sense! I should have written... I was amused to learn earlier that EDF energy have been subjected to loads of twitter abuse because of people confusing them FOR the EDL- not WITH!

Although I think it was probably clear what I meant!

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 23/05/2013 22:57

The Aslan banner. I got the wording a bit wrong, but you get the point!

I thought it was photoshopped to begin with, but no, I now believe them to be that stupid.

Repeatedlydoingthetwist · 23/05/2013 22:58

I've just seen the poem. Words fail me. Someone took actual time out of their lives to write that mawkish shit.

EduCated · 23/05/2013 23:01

Seems my FB culls have been effective, only one borderline comment and plenty of sensible, well reasoned ones.

On my Facebook:

In the Middle East if you get caught stealing you get your hand cut off. In the UK you murder someone in the middle of the street and you get treated in hospital. There's something wrong here.

I was tempted to reply that it was true, it is wrong to cut someone's hand off for stealing.

no place for hate

www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2013/may/23/woolwich-attack-far-right-three-points?CMP=twt_gu In the wake of the spike in far-right activity, the risk of 'cumulative extremism' is one of the issues that should occupy minds]]

EDL will exploit this crime.

To say Islamic terrorist represent the muslim religion, Is like saying the Ku Klux Klan represent the christian religion.

stick some of these on your FB.

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 23/05/2013 23:16

Have you seen this tweet?

Because of course it was them Muslims wot killed Van Gogh....

FrankellyMyDearIDontGiveADamn · 23/05/2013 23:17

Ok, I've just realised he's referring to the Dutch film maker who was murdered, but still Salman Rushdie? WTAF?

namechangeofshame · 23/05/2013 23:31

"Frenkelly" love the comment below that EDL tweet "if he's going to live here he needs to learn English".

That poem is awful btw!

40% of people polled. Not "40% of British Muslims". I am white British and attended an all girls school with a significant % of Muslim pupils, I never once heard anything that could be interpreted as "hatred of the West".

In every walk of life you will have extremists and idiots with moronic views. Islamic terrorists are not representative of the majority of Muslims, in the same way that the Ku Klux Klan are not representative of Christians; Nazi's are not representative of the majority of German's and I want to make it damn clear that the EDL are not, and never will, be representative of my cultural heritage as a white Briton.

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 24/05/2013 00:00

A colleague whom I like shocked me by posting some picture saying its illegal for soldiers to wear uniforms in public now so why the hell can people wear burkas which are "proven to threaten our security" and another postd a video called 'the hideous Muslim infiltration of Britain".

Am seriously tempted to look for a job elsewhere

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 24/05/2013 00:01

Xylem..what a load of shite

CalamityKate · 24/05/2013 00:03

That poem has just popped up on my news feed. Cringesome.
