Antiracist prosecutor in the UK
Sir David Calvert-Smith, UK director of public prosecutions, says most Britons are guilty of racism. He’s right, of course. Once you buy into antiracism and the rest of it the need to extirpate all traces of non-bureaucratic human relatedness becomes a sort of jihad—an infinite battle for the goal that exceeds all others. Luckily there are now a few principled prosecutors who recognize that “[a] great deal has got to be done across the whole spectrum of British society” and are willing to do their part. Some day soon Britons will be able to sleep easy knowing the responsible authorities are finally confronting the horrors of non-inclusion. Posted by Jim Kalb at June 24, 2002 11:54 AM | Send Comments
In what initially seems like the silver lining in this story, a spokesman for Britain’s Commission for Racial Equality denies the chief prosecutor’s contention that most British people are racist. However, the spokesman then adds that more work still has to be done to “ERADICATE RACISM COMPLETELY.” Thus, whether or not liberals believe that “most” whites are racist, the practical result is the same: an endless totalitarian campaign to eliminate society’s remaining “racism.” Posted by: Lawrence Auster on June 24, 2002 12:25 PMBut Sir David is plainly correct. Any feeling that you are more closely related to those whose ancestors have lived in England from time immemorial than to Bengali immigrants, any expectation that the English and Bengalis will look at things differently or act differently (except when the expectation is required by multicultural sensitivity), is racist. How could the majority of Englishmen not be racist?
