Nick Griffin is an English fellow in jail, on trial for expressing his views that militant minorities have taken over England while the foolish white people lay down (or are forced to lay down) and take it.
Some say Mr. Griffin is a racist, but since some seem to derive fiendish pleasure from saying that nasty word, it's questionable whether he's a racist or merely a REALIST like I am. Regardless, Nick Griffin ought to be free to share his thoughts in what's left of his beloved country no matter what some might think or choose to call him (expressing themselves).
White society is now a hell-hole, said BNP boss on race charges

The leader of the British National Party claimed white society had turned into "a multi-racial hell-hole", a jury heard yesterday.

Nick Griffin, 45, and fellow party activist Mark Collett, 24, went on trial accused of race-hate charges through speeches featured in a BBC undercover documentary.
Both were filmed by the programme The Secret Agent as they addressed an audience at the Reservoir Tavern in Keighley, West Yorks, two years ago tomorrow.
Rodney Jameson, QC, prosecuting, said Griffin concentrated on allegations of paedophile drug rapes by Asian Muslims in the town during his speech.
He told Leeds Crown Court, quoting excerpts from the recording, that Griffin said white society had turned into a "multi-racial hell-hole" and urged the crowd to vote BNP in order to ensure "the British people really realise the evil of what these people have done to our country".
After making a series of allegations about Muslim gangs grooming and raping children in Keighley, Griffin said: "The bastards that are in that gang, they are in prison so the public think it's all over. Well it's not. Because there's more of them.
"The police force and elected governors haven't done a damn thing about it. Their good book [the Koran] tells them that's acceptable.
"If you doubt it, go and buy a copy and you will find verse after verse and you can take any woman you want as long as it's not Muslim women."
Mr Jameson said Griffin's speech turned to allegations of violence by Asian Muslims against whites.
He said Griffin continued: "These 18-, 19- and 25-year-old Asian Muslims are seducing and raping white girls in this town right now." Mr Jameson said Griffin had said Asian community leaders would condemn the attacks to the press, but not to the attackers themselves.
"It's part of their plan for conquering countries. It's how they do it," Griffin added.
Griffin used his speech to claim this would expand to cover the UK "as the last whites try and find their way to the sea".
Griffin, of Llanerfyl, Powys, denies two counts of using words or behaviour intending to stir up racial hatred and two of using words or behaviour likely to stir up racial hatred.
Collett, of Rothley, Leics, denies four counts of the first offence and four of the latter.
The court heard that Griffin made another speech on May 5, 2004, at Morley Town Hall, West Yorks, in which he discussed the BNP as an alternative to the other political parties. He criticised the amount of attention the media had given to the Stephen Lawrence murder inquiry, describing Mr Lawrence as a drug-dealer who was notorious in the area for taking cash from children.
Griffin said "all the hatred" between races would spill out if it was kept "bottled-up". Mr Jameson told the jury: "Some of his analysis of a situation is, you may think, perfectly legitimate political comment. He deals with serious issues. He accurately predicts events that happened in London in July 2005.
"We agree that freedom of expression is an important right but it cannot be unfettered. No society can permit disapproval of another race to be expressed in such strong terms that hatred be stirred up against people on the basis of race or ethnicity."
Footage of the speeches was obtained by undercover reporter Jason Gwynne, who joined the BNP and spent six months attending meetings and other events for the documentary. Mr Gwynne told the court that he had infiltrated the party with the help of a "mole", admitted he had once been a student member of the anti-Nazi league, but said he had approached the BNP investigation with an "open mind".
The hearing continues.
