Polish news about moron right wing actvists or politicians – continuation

On LJ group Theist Satanism user bookoflies in his post turned my attention to English version of article MARILYN MANSON, BEHEMOTH To Be Banned From Performing In Poland? – June 16, 2007″. This information is well familiar to me. It is one of many blatantly stupid events in Poland lately, of course thanks to present “beloved” extreme right wing government.

Below is a fragment of that article:

Michal Stangret of Poland’s Metro reports that a Polish anti-sect organization calling itself the All-Polish Committee for Defence against Sects has compiled a list of artists who allegedly “promote Satanism” through their music. The list, which will be distributed to various Polish officials in July, will likely result in the artists becoming registered and getting banned from performing in Poland.

“Until now it has been unclear which bands promote these values, and therefore the authorities, unaware of the facts, have allowed these kinds of concerts to be organized, in the process giving these bands a platform from which they could spread their dangerous message. So we decided to help them,” explained Ryszard Nowak, who heads the All-Polish Committee for Defence against Sects.

According to Nowak, hundreds of bands who have performed in Poland over the course of the last 20 years have been evaluated before the final list was compiled. Just exactly which artists will be included? The document’s creators are unwilling to reveal that information just yet but it is almost certain that Polish acts BEHEMOTH and KAT, as well as American shock-rocker MARILYN MANSON, will make the cut.

“The index will not only contain metal bands, but also rock artists,” Nowak explained, before adding that the list will include any groups who promote Satanism or encourage murder and animal sacrifice.

The document will be distributed to government authorities and various other officials around the country. Some of the local governments are already looking forward to receiving it.

My commentary (here I place slightly extended version) which I posted to mentioned above group says:

This Novak is crazy fanatic. His organization isn’t linked with Catholic church or any official anti-sect organizations. Moreover, they deny having anything in common with him, recognizing him as insane, uneducated, dabbler and potentially dangerous maniac. You can read the official statement here (only in polish language). Alas there are still many naive but influential people who are stupid to give him any credit so he was able to stop few particular concerts few years ago but people weren’t fully aware at that time with whom they were dealing with. His constantly blatant stupid actions and public accusations makes him more and more ridicule so hopefully it’s just sensational news but without any consequences. I write hopefully because with present extreme right wing brainless polish government and toady, officious administration everything is possible and so the danger that any most incredibly stupid idea will hold on and will be incorporated into practice.
