That they took the bait is on them in my opinion. What the Britain First group did was not illegal, so just because they're d!cks doesn't mean the point was wrong.
Think Klan and you're on the right track - do their marches always go peacefully? Do they represent American culture and American values? Would you feel insulted if I posted that?

I will give them credit - at least this time they found a mosque. When they went to Ireland to try a similar stunt they confused a Town Hall with a mosque

I couldn't stand the many f-bombs flying around.

The Klan hanged people from trees for looking at white women. There is no comparison. But since you mentioned it, the Klan still has parades and protesters line the streets with signs. They do not tell throw things at them or tell them they're taking over the country. But I take your point. Too bad you don't see mine.

If I hadn't heard this "extreme right wing" here it would concern me. Problem is Rush Limbaugh and Donald Trump are also supposedly "extreme right wing".

This supposed "extreme right wing" group is probably to the left of Nancy Pelosi. The problem is they are sick of this ridiculous political correctness that allowed thousands of British girls to be raped over a decade while the police looked the other way for fear of riling the community against the Pakistanis. Or allows British kids to grow up with all the education and benefits they provide, only to be radicalized in their mosques and go join ISIS (like Jihadi John or that idiot I saw on 60 Minutes who wants to see Sharia law in the UK and USA, women completely covered, thieves hands cut off, and adulterers stoned to death).

Then they need to pressure their own government officials, and get other like-minded Brits on board with helping to change the culture of the government.

Marching through a predominately Muslim town with an "in your face" type of demeanor is in no way shape or form a Christian example. LOVE thy neighbor. If you want to argue that this is an acceptable "secular" response to a legitimate concern, that's fine, but it definitely isn't Christian.

They tried that - they put a candidate up in an election and he got 56 votes

As for their history, they are the bastard offspring of the NF and BNP who have policies such as no non-white immigration and want to repatriate all non-white people living here. They're also against gays and abortion.
In the 70s and 80s their targets were blacks and Pakis - their demonstrations would have 500 of them rather than the handful that BF manage to get. Their demo always ended in violence and the first use of police riot shields on the mainland

There's a bigger problem with Muslims in Europe that doesn't get across the pond. Unlike the US, most Muslims are also lower class and not the model minority types; stereotypically Somalis or Pakistanis etc, they tend to be the complete opposite of Jews or Hindus, and they all happen to be Muslim.

They are to Europe what Blacks are to USA. They also have the immigration backlash that illegals get here too.
