"J S" wrote in message ... Take a look at their forums. Search for posts from the owner of OC UK. If you have ever ordered from them and are black, jewish or homosexual, or in any way disapprove of hitlers policies or those of white supremacy groups, you may possibly feel a little bit sick to the stomach for having funded this company. I know I do. There are links direct to racist flash videos on a neo-nazi white supremacy website used by the owner in his own threads to support his views... a site which states: "There is no national dignity without the people believing in their race and nation above all else. No compromise over homosexuality. It should be made illegal again and stiff penalties imposed on the "pink Mafia" now infiltrating Society at all levels. Total opposition to Zionism and Israel and all their supporters. " I find this truly disgusting having ordered from them in the past, and being opposed to neo-nazism in all forms, and feel terrible for having parted with my cash to what is ostensibly a company with disgraceful views. Anybody else have views on this? Heres a link http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/sho...eadid=17281051 have a search around, you will soon build up a profile of this outfit. |

I've taken a look, but can't search because I'm not registered. I found a fascination discussion about terrorists' potential plans in the general chat thread, but nothing to support your statements.

Anybody else have views on this? Forget the racial crap for a moment and just take a look at the number of dissatisfied customers! My mate used to work there in the returns department - apparently they have to have separate storage facilities for all the returns they get! They also employ someone to repack all the returns and these are then sold as now. Note that they are not etsted, just resold! |

There are quite a few insurance/investment companies around who take a similar view by promising not to invest your money in anything "unethical" - although of course their definition of unethical might not conform to yours ;-) This is merely public information of the type I would have liked before spending any money with them. But at least you have brought it to the attention of others so that they can make their own decisions based on their own beliefs. Parish |

This is merely public information of the type I would have liked before spending any money with them. I agree with free speech, whether I like it or not, I think the best way to defeat attitudes like this is to debate it and show how stupid it is and disprove everything they say. I also believe that people should be made aware of attitudes like this so as to have the right not to shop there, whether they are cheap or not (which they aren't) is not the right attitude to have, which is why I boycott McDonalds, Coca Cola-Schweppes, Marks And Spencers, Gap, Nike, Seimens (used slave labour from Jews in 2nd World War) etc etc etc. It's a question of personal choice, my personal choice is never to shop there ever again and as long as this information is used to point out the owners attitudes then this is a good thing, it gives others the choice to shop there. However, if we all stuck together on issues like this, there would be far less ****y companies ruining the world Free speech by all means, free choice too.... |

Precisely, which is why I think that the censoring of the BNP's election broadcast by C5 was wrong. No matter how abhorrent people find the BNP's (alleged) agenda, censoring it is not the answer; people voting against it is. Democracy is a form of free speech, and free choice, and should not be interfered with. I also believe that people should be made aware of attitudes like this so as to have the right not to shop there, whether they are cheap or not (which they aren't) is not the right attitude to have, which is why I boycott McDonalds, Coca Cola-Schweppes, Marks And Spencers, Gap, Nike, I guess that's for exploiting cheap labour in the Third World, yes? Free speech by all means, free choice too.... Yep. Parish |
