Imagine the uproar if they said.
Kill a black person.
Kill a Muslim.
Kill a Jew.
Remember Jo Cox was killed by a right wing nutter.
Are the the lovely left or the nasty far left.
I expect Corbyn will be there being cheered.

[Peter Pedant]

complete non starter
12 people shot in Virginia - now that is news!

and also Meghan wont meet Trump and she is breast feeding, and she is grightened that he will grab one ! - chicken breast for chrissakes
Photos photoshopped available of the very smash and grab !
now reader THAT is real news

These groups of looney left should be banned, and that is treating them lightly, in fact they should be arrested and charged for hate crimes.

[anotheoldgit]

One of AB's major thread closers, Peter Pedant, attempts his infantile ways again.

Only those already sharing a similar mindset are likely to be interested in anything these 2 attention-seeking bands have to say.

But, I agree, that the howls of condemnation are likely to have been far louder should the bands have had called for the murder of the groups you mention.

I've yet to hear of anyone turned into a killer by going to Glasto; it was the internet, not music festivals, that helped Cox's murderer.

they'll soon change if they ever get any assets.

"Imagine the uproar if they said...." - there is a black muslim in the government.

[THECORBYLOON]

If you mean the Home Secretary, he's not a practising Muslim.

Unfortunately there are thousands that share a similar mind set.

“I've yet to hear of anyone turned into a killer by going to Glasto; it was the internet, not music festivals, that helped Cox's murderer.”

But music, video games, books have all incited someone to murder.

[Gromit]

It is a gimmick, and the Sunday Times (and the OP) have given them the publicity they crave.

The video for Kill Tory Scum end with the caveat - “Murder them at the ballot box by voting.”

//magine the uproar if they said.

Aye it would be so 1980s, been done already
Anyway, away to find my ‘Screwdriver’

[anotheoldgit]

Oh Gromit believes that the press and certain ABers should not highlight such matters.

That is of course if some right-wingers step out of line, then it becomes wide open for debate and condemnation.

[jackthehat]

But I don't think that particular group of charmers were ever invited to play at Glasto, steg.

From the Article.

Do these sound like a gimmick.?

//Their lyrics include: "Even if it's your dad or your mum, kill Tory scum, kill Tory scum...murder them all to the beat of a drum, kill Tory scum, kill Tory scum."//

\\The band also played a graphic set at Boomtown Fair 2018, in which they kicked, punched, and spat at a man dressed in a suit, while wearing Kill Tory Scum clothing.//

\\In a 2015 tweet, the punk rock band, from south-east London, said anyone who voted Tory had "blood" on their hands, and called for them to be executed.

A year earlier, they said Tories should be hanged.//

I agree with the Jo Cox foundation for once.

\\The Jo Cox Foundation said the language was "completely abhorrent".

"We're seeing a legitimising and normalising of harmful words and actions," it said.//

[ichkeria]

They should not have been booked IMO

[fender62]

music .. it is not, but do they want publicity to further there careers
of course, here a taste of how bad they are, the rant is called hypocrites...funny that.

[webbo3]

fender, as you said, music it is not.

[-Talbot-]

Even the band's name has strange possibly sick connotations.

I see the usual suspects have refused to condemn it because of who it is aimed at.

Right-wing violence bad
Lefty violence good
