Anti-English Attitudes in England -- Girl Arrested For Wanting to be in English-Speaking Group

Multiculturalism is destroying us. A 14-year-old English girl was recently arrested in England for not wanting to be in a non-English-speaking study group at her high school.

Her science class had been split up into discussion groups. She was placed with several "Asian" students (The English refer to middle-eastern Muslims as Asians). They could speak to each other, in their language, but did not appear to speak English. In fact, the news reports aren't even sure what language they were speaking -- it appeared to be Urdu, the national language of Pakistan. Since it was a discussion group, the English girl asked to be moved to another group.

Her teacher's response to her reasonable request was to put her in the isolation unit. The police officer stationed at the school (I guess that's like a resource officer) finally arrested her -- a week later. The actual charge was that she was suspected of committing something called a section 5 racial public order offence.

The school is Harrop Fold High School, in Worsley, England. The headteacher is Dr. Antony Edkins, and he supports the arrest. He assures the public that he is committed to fostering caring and tolerant attitudes at the school.

I guess white people and English speakers are the only ones who can be intolerant. All this girl wanted to do was speak English in her own country -- to speak English in a discussion group. And she was arrested on suspicion of racism. What if an Urdu speaker had asked to be moved to a group of Urdu speakers? Or what if a Muslim wanted to be placed in a group with other Muslims? I doubt those people would have been arrested... but I could be wrong.

I fear it's only a matter of time before this sort of thing spreads to the United States. The Democrats could take control of the House this fall, and they love to write laws discriminating against whites, Christians, and English speakers.

Another question I have is if these were Muslim students, why didn't the papers say so? Do they, perhaps, think that the average English citizen would take umbrage at the idea of Muslims getting such deferential treatment when compared to Anglo-Saxon Christians?

Another question. What is the point of having a queen if she doesn't work to protect her people from oppression in their own land?
