Still getting the 404 error.

Click on the link in my original post. A dot had mistakenly found its way into it.

Why do people think that this isn't race related? It obviously had racial implications:

Did Nigel Farage incite that hate?

And what "hate" then. Should that really be called hate? Immigrants who physically beat up innocent natives nobody in the left ever gets upset about, but a few stupid British thugs yelling bad words is apparently something that we all must be upset about.

This lack of proportions. I think it's mindboggling.

Because beating someone up because of their race is not the same thing as beating someone up. One is a hate crime, the other is not.

Targetting someone because of their race, whether it be physical or verbal assault is a hate crime, and deplorable.

Nigel Farage has made racist remarks against Romanians and Chinese in the past, too:
