Christopher Gibbons and Tyrone Patten-Walsh espoused racist, antisemitic, Islamophobic, homophobic and misogynistic views and encouraged listeners of their “Lone Wolf Radio” podcast to commit violent acts against ethnic minorities, authorities said.

Using aliases on their show, the pair said “the white race was likely to be ‘genocided’ unless steps were taken to fight back.” They approved of a day when so-called race traitors would be hanged, particularly those in interracial relationships. Prince Harry’s wife, Meghan, is biracial.

On one episode, Gibbons said the Duke of Sussex should be “prosecuted and judicially killed for treason” and called Harry’s son, Archie, who is now 4, a “creature” that “should be put down.”

    I beg to differ, kind Sir or Madam. When you lock them away, they spread the hate even more, making things worse. Instead put them together with immigrants, their families, individuals. Daily, for a long time. It’s easy to hate a concept, it’s almost impossible to hate people if you get to know them. Show them their wrong ways. Humans are social animals (except hard cases of sociopaths or psychopaths - btw it’s not that common, as some want to make you think, most - by far - sociopathical behavior is learned and can be unlearned)

      If we were locking people up just for being racist, you might have a point, but this guy was publicly calling for the assassination of a child. He didn’t get locked up for his shitty worldview, he locked up because he was calling for violence and providing kill lists.

      Now, you do have a point about prison not always rehabilitating people, which is a problem that does need to be solved, but in the context of whether or not this guy belongs in prison, I don’t really care, I want him somewhere where he can’t hurt anyone.

      Send rapists to women’s homes, they’ll soon learn the error of their ways as they make friends and frolick.
