Khan: Ignorant and Deviant

[Shamrock]

As in all walks of life it's the realtive minority of extremists that gets the peaceful majority a bad rep. It's not just restricted to Muslims either - it's in virtually all religion.

This results in racist organisations like the BNP feeding of stories in the Sun and other comics and creating fear among 'normal' people. This in turn leaves genuine asylum seekesr and foreigners who live here, appreciate it and give something back facing prejudice, isolation and violence.

Britain should not have an open door policy for anyone and everyone to take advantage of but nor should it turn a blind eye and close the door to the suffering of people who face persecution from other countries who do not hold the values of freedom as importantly as we do. After all that's part of what makes Great Britian - Great.

Say what you like about Khan in the ring - outide of it the kid is showing maturity and class (apart from his driving...)

As a boxing fan, a few guys at work showed me this yesterday, and I quite liked the Khan v Bakri tale of the tape they put up to dismiss Bakri as a loon.

However, it was a non-story, but was a clever piece of journalism to turn it into front page fodder (as an ex-journo, I can appreciate that kind of manipulation on a quiet news day).
