As I stated earlier, I am against banning OO matches. Why? Well, there are several reasons and I would need a helluva lot more than a brief post to be able to articulate those reasons. Basically though, I don't agree with censorship. Now I know only too well the folk who both participate and spectate at these matches are almost always hate- filled bigots. I obviously ( I hope ) have zero time for them. But here's the rub, I'm against all forms of intolerance . I've alluded to my political activism on here a couple of times. Because of that activism I've taken part in many marches over several decades. CND marches, anti Iraq war marches, support for the miners marches. Faslane protests. I could ge on, but you get the picture. Now if we start to ban marches of ANY description , where do you think that would lead us to ? Would we ban Republican marches ? Protest marches ? Marches which highlight social injustice ? Black Lives Matter marches ? No, for me it would be a godsend to those who just live to deprive folk of the right to a voice . As I say I'm against intolerance, yes I know, their whole psyche is based on intolerance, but I refuse to go into the gutter with them. Let them march. Let them show the civilised world they're stuck in a bygone age. Let them show the world they simply haven't evolved. A wee bit of a rant there folks, but honest, it's the scaled-down version.
