Police Contacted over ‘Racist’ Posters Saying ‘White Lives Matter’, ‘It’s Okay to Be White’ (Scotland)
Breitbart ^ | 1/22/2021 | Jack Montgomery

Police have been contacted and politicians outraged after “racist” and “offensive” posters saying ‘it’s okay to be white’ and ‘white lives matter’ were seen in Edinburgh, Scotland.

The stickers were discovered in the Morningside — a well-known and well-to-do area in the Scottish capital with a reputation for snootiness — by a local woman, who moved quickly to rip them down and contact the city council and community council, who referred the matter to the police.

“I was pretty shocked when I first saw the stickers. And then I thought, ‘if you live in a racist society, you can’t be surprised that there is racism in your neighbourhood’,” the woman mourned in comments to Edinburgh Live.

“I was glad that there was something I could do – I took down all I could (more than 20) and reported it to the City Council and my community council, who logged it with the community police team,” she added.

...

Ian Murray, the local MP and Shadow Secretary of State for Scotland for the Labour party, also weighed in, saying: “We can’t pretend that Scotland is immune from hatred and intolerance.”

“Thank you to the local resident who took the time to remove all these offensive stickers. We all have a duty to take a stand against racism,” he added.

I’m proud to be white. Doesn’t mean I hate black people, just means I’m proud to be white.

Well, this is an obvious example of ignorant skin color hatred! Sarcasm.

Yes, I'm proud of my White heritage. White people created the modern world. Not racist at all. I'm always interested to see accomplishments from whatever source. A good accomplishment speaks for itself without regard to race.

Yes it's OK to be White. It's OK to be proud of your White heritage.

If anyone asks, I’m a White Nationalist and proud to be.

I compare my status right along side many well know Black
Nationalists who also love their nation.

That’s all a nationalist is.

Screw them if they think I’m going to let them rip this
fine title away from me. Not happening.

This is getting TOTALLY out of hand..

Saying “White Lives Matter” is “racist”, but saying “Black Lives Matter” is NOT racist? And in SCOTLAND of all places?

Is there nowhere in the world anymore where people haven’t gone 100% totally batshit crazy?!

What’s the difference between White Privilege and the White Man’s Burden? Are they the same thing a hundred years apart?

It’s OK to be racist against white people, who are a global minority.

Western civilization made life so easy, that now, all that is left to do is navel gaze and create non existent problems and cry about them. Sad. I will not participate.
