A hate crime against who?

A report of a group of people dressed as Ku Klux Klan (KKK) members in Newtownards, County Down, is being treated by police as a hate crime.
Pictures emerged of the group posing near an Islamic prayer house.


The pictures are frightening (not in a fun halloween way), especially if one was of colour. Absolute morons

A clear hate crime.

'Malevolent intent'
Alliance MLA Kellie Armstrong said the picture of the people dressed as members of the white supremacist group was a "clear demonstration of aggression" and "that is a hate crime."
The picture appears to have been taken a few doors down from the Bangladesh Islamic Centre in Newtownards.
In August last year, a pig's head was left on the doorstep of the centre.
DUP MLA Peter Weir tweeted that the pictures showed "malevolent intent".

Absolutely not.

If someone dresses up as a cowboy, it doesn't mean they're going to join a cattle train or have a shoot out in the high street.

I ask again ''a hate crime against who?''

I wouldn't like it - I don't think they like my sort of person.  I might take a fence.  Depends what they are saying really doesn't it.?  If it is death to all p0uffes then I would - get my drift.  Or was it a bit over the top as a prank but well out of order??
Like you say to who, and what was their point?

If not, why not ?

Agree with that Sticky. Double Standards.

Also positive discrimination with examples such as "MOBO Awards", and "Black Hollywood". It has to work both ways. Surely !

People should stop ramping these kind of things up out of all proportion, you know, just lighten up and stop making a big deal out of nothing.

By the sound of it, these were just a bunch of guys dressed for Halloween having a bit of a laugh.

Now, the real KKK, that's a very different matter. Those guys are freaky as fook and are just evil beyond belief in the depictions I've seen on TV. I must confess that I don't know what they're about and quite frankly, I don't want to know cos the sight of them and their actions make me feel sick in the pit of my stomach.

Real KKK wouldn't go into a pub for a meal, or remove their ' hoods' !!!!

This is more like a scene from Monty Python, along the lines of the ' Spanish Inquisition '

Islamic Terrorists...
...killed twice as many people in one month (5000) in November, 2014) than were killed in in 350 years of Inquisition (2000-3000).

...murder more people every day than the KKK has in the last 70 years (26 since 1945).

...killed more civilians in two hours on September 11th (2977) than in the 26 years of sectarian conflict in Northern Ireland (2236).

...massacred more Iraqis on a single day in June, 2014 (1566) than the number of criminals executed by America in the last 40 years (1423).

...killed more Americans on American soil than did the combined militaries of Japan and Nazi Germany in WWII.

...slaughter almost twice as many people everyday than were killed during the entire Salem Witch Trials (20).

Well, on a technicality, it wasn't "inside" though therefore was clearly "outside"...

The fact that it may have been three streets away, doesn't change anything!

Of course it does - were they Catholic muslims or protestant Muslims?

I went to the Pub on a bad taste night dressed in the white robes. The white folk were more upset than the black folk I have to say! I went to the nightclub and was allowed to enter as long as I handed in my gun!
