I've been staying away from this site quite a bit because I'm quite honestly sickened that the presence of strokes has been allowed to persist. I find the fact that someone who has so openly condoned murder and open acts of violence against the UK to be utterly offensive, and it's the kind of abhorrent, hate-mongering speech that the world doesn't need.
I'd like to formally request that such a disruptive and hateful element be removed before he can spread any more profoundly racist hatespeech.
With respect gregory, I already did and it was overlooked, I assume, as the man in question is still here.
maybe the items weren't ban worthy?

I believe monahan is refering to the thread here, which is in serious discussion.
I don't think he directed it personally at anyone, just shared his beliefs on the matter. Be the bigger man and ignore him, thats the best advice I can give you.
Nothing he has posted is against any rules. There are moderators that regularly check, not to mention one posted in that thread (and got a reply from 'Strokes').
Just because you disagree with his opinions, doesn't mean he should be punished.

Banning him from the forum because his opinions are extreme is nothing more than censorship. He does not go against any rules and is not directly threatening anyone, just stating his opinion.
I do not agree with his viewpoint, however he makes good points and does so within the rules. This is not mainstream media where we have to outlaw extreme view points due to economic forces. This is the internet where everyone can have their say, as long as they stay within certain limits (in this case our rules).
If you find any posts where he goes against the rules, please report the post. If you do not wish to deal with him, ignore him. vBulletin even has a built in ignore list you can add him to, which will hide all his posts from your view.
