Political Correctness and the Death of Free Speech, Part 2

The abduction and rape of up to a thousand young girls in some areas of the United Kingdom has been downplayed due to fears of being culturally insensitive.

In almost every country where there has been extensive Muslim immigration, a minority of self- segregating Muslims have refused to assimilate and instead have demanded special treatment.  Progressive politicians seeking political success via identity politics have accommodated them.

Some Muslim immigrants reject the laws of their adopted nations and instead want Sharia imposed together with all the oppressive barriers to individual rights and free will coupled with the misogynistic restrictions to full equality for women.

Political Correctness is both a political tool and a political weapon for both the left and Islamists who are allied in a mutual disgust for Western Civilization and/or modernity.  It is a “tool” to impose group think, self-imposed cultural and social apartheid and tribal conformity.  It is a weapon to silence the opposition.  In Rotherham it was a “never get arrested” permit sanctioned by everyone whose sworn responsibility was to protect the innocent and the vulnerable.

Quillette reports that “The scale of the street grooming crisis in the UK almost defies belief. Hundreds of girls and young women were raped in the city of Rotherham, and hundreds by similar exploitation rings… Now, up to a thousand girls are thought to have been drugged, raped, and beaten in Telford between the 1980s and the 2010s…’cultural sensitivity’ was a factor. There was ‘a general nervousness in the earlier years about discussing [the backgrounds of the perpetrators], for fear of being thought racist.’…Society at large failed to give the crisis the attention it amply deserved and this had much to do with political convenience. Fifteen years ago, in 2003, Ann Cryer, then Labour MP for Bradford, reported that Asian men [from Bangladesh and Pakistan] were abusing girls. A profile in the Yorkshire Post reveals that she was ‘ridiculed, branded a racist, a liar and a fantasist [and] forced to install a panic button in her own home.’ “

The Rotherham abuse has spread to other British communities, including Rochdale, Oxford and Newcastle. According to The Independent, Sammy Woodhouse, who was abused as a teenager by a Rotherham ringleader … and has waived her right to anonymity… abuse was underway ‘all over the country’…Her calls for action came as figures show that in Bradford 1,153 referrals were made to its child sexual exploitation team in 2016/17 – a 62 per cent increase on the year before. Bradford Metropolitan District Council’s specialist hub launched interventions for 861 children – including many who were referred more than once. The vast majority of possible victims are girls…Authorities behind an investigation that identified more than 700 women and girls as potential victims of sexual exploitation in North East England believe the abuse is happening far beyond areas where perpetrators have been caught.”

In response, “Tommy Robinson” (Real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, who adopted the alias to safeguard his family from reprisals) protested against government inaction.  Despite engaging in a quiet and peaceful presence outside of a Leeds courthouse, he was arrested. He was livestreaming on Facebook at the time.  The Standard reports that “Hundreds of  protesters… descended on Whitehall to demonstrate against Tommy Robinson’s arrest …Whitehall had to be closed to traffic as a huge group gathered outside Downing Street on Saturday afternoon, chanting Mr Robinson’s name.” Mr. Yaxley-Lennon’s organization, the English Defence League 
released a statement noting thatthe Government refuses to stand up for us and the thousands of young women and girls abused by Muslim gangs up and down this country.  We call it rape jihad because it is not only an attack on the individual girls it is an attack on the foundation of this country, on our future mothers.”

While America’s First Amendment has provided greater protections for U.S. citizens, political and media pressures are brought into play.  Those criticizing the refusal to enforce federal immigration laws, or to speak bluntly of abusive acts against females under the guise of cultural practices, are frequently branded as “racists.”
