Ibtisam Posted July 22, 2008 Chief Islamophobe and anti-Muslim racist Kevin Myers of the Irish Independent took a break from his usual denigration of Muslims and Islam, and turned his attentions to Africans: "Africa is giving nothing to anyone -- apart from AIDS", - He argues that all africa produces is a 'predatory and dysfunctional economic, social and sexual system.' The doe-eyed distended child comes under particular fire as Myers maintains that in adulthood this innocent becomes a 'priapic, Kalashnikov-bearing hearty, siring children whenever the whim takes him'. -The Immigrant Council of Ireland has taken exception to Myers latest invective and has lodged a complaint with An Garda Siochana (the Irish police) questioning whether the article is in breach of the Prohibition of Incitement to Hatred Act. Section 2 (1) of the Incitement to Hatred Act states that it is an offence for a person "to publish or distribute written material" if the "written material, words, behaviour, visual images or sounds, as the case may be, are threatening, abusive or insulting and are intended or, having regard to all the circumstances, are likely to stir up hatred". The ICI issued the following advice to those who wish to support them in their noble endeavour: -the complaint should be made to the person or organisation's local Garda station. Because the issue is a complex one, they should ask if a sergeant can take their statement. - The person or organisation making the complaint should say that they are making a complaint about the publication of an article they believe is racist and that the complaint is being made under Section 2 of the Prohibition of Incitement to Hatred Act, 1989. -The Gardaí should then take a written statement from the person. -If the person or organisation's local Garda station is Pearse Street Garda Station, they should ask for Sergeant Eamonn Lynch, who has been appointed to co-ordinate the issue there. In addition to the above, a complaint should also be sent to both the NCCRI and The Office of the Press Ombudsman. It is time to take a stand and say we will not accept hate speech!
