Scott McHugh - The Racist British Soldier

Scott McHughIn the aftermath of a US soldier shooting dead 16 innocent Afghan civilians over the weekend, we have witnessed many English Defence League members post vile abuse claiming it is their own fault and the deserved it.

Two days ago we brought you the posts made by the Combined ex Forces leader, Chris James. James applauded the killing of the children and applauded the soldier who massacred them.

Thankfully very few of members of the Combined ex Forces actually ended up serving for obvious reasons but every now and against a violent psycho gets through.

Meet Scott McHugh, who we believe is a serving soldier with 3rd Battallion Yorkshire Regiment, went on a foul mouthed rant on the Internet stating that he was going on a tour of Afghanistan and couldn't wait to shoot 'some towel heads'.

We would also like to introduce you to his friend, Oldham born Danny Wheeler, who likes to indulge in facebook rants about 'pakis'

First we will take a look at McHugh's plans for when he is serving in Afghanistan.

 

This is standard fare from English Defence League supporters but McHugh is supposed to be a member of one of the most professional armies in the world, yet he is in it to shoot Asians.  McHugh appears to be a massacre waiting to happen.

McHugh seems to think of himself as a bit of a comedian and is not shy of posting the odd racist joke.

 

 

One of Scott's friend's reported one of his posts to facebook for racism. That lead to this angry post, backed up by fellow racist squaddie, Danny Wheeler.

 

Whilst he is happy to go on his hate filled rants against Asians, he is not so keen when his own come under fire.  A young man from Dewsbury was arrested and charged this week for making malicious communications about the armed forces.

Here is what McHugh and his friends had to say about it.

 

 

And here is Danny Wheeler's profile

 

 

Whilst EDL News respects the lads and lasses in the armed forces, we are not going to let hard core racism and threats to kill Asians go unchallenged. Many Muslims serve in our armed forces and do not deserve to be serving alongside the likes of Wheeler and McHugh and we certainly do not want them representing British people.

A cursory glance at the Armed Forces message boards show us that they the look down on racist EDL sentiment and their memebership in general.

The EDL get drunk in car parks, kettled by the police, shouting abuse at  'pakis' and singing racist songs, whilst all the time claiming they are defending our country, when in actual fact it is the boys and girls in Afghanistan who put their lives on the line on a daily basis. 

An army spokesman confirmed that McHugh had been dismissed but said it was due to “administrative discharge.”

“He was dismissed last week as a result of abnormal administrative action. He was no longer a serving member of the army,” a British army spokesman told Al-Akhbar.

UPDATE: It appears that McHugh is currently helping police with their enquiries, according to one of his friends

Thank you to this page who made us aware of this.

Great on exposing this racist moron, not sure how this guy ended up in the army, he seems very unstable. His friend also needs some help. Scott McHugh has been posting racist and murderous comments for the last few months, this is not a isolated incident, this is very common behavior where he is concerned. He is in the yorkshire regiment, the police needs to be contacted as well as the ministry of defense and his regiment, the sooner he is discharged the better, he is massacre waiting to happen..

There is, of course, a potentially much more serious issue at stake here than ill-advised, ill-informed racist filth from an immature 19-year old youth(incidenta lly, he is no longer serving. He was discharged a few months ago)and that is the dangerous precedent established when contrasted with the treatment of others.

It disgusts me how everybody is slagging him off, when at the end of the day all he has done is fight for our country. He might have made racist JOKES, but thats all they are.. JOKES. He doesn't go and shoot them for the fun of it, he does it for our country! Put yourselves in his position, i bet you wouldn't be making the pathetic comments you are now. If you look you would probably find that over 50% of british soldiers are racist, the majority of britain is racist, that's just how the world is these days. But at least Scott is doing something for our country, what the fuck are any of you lot doing for us?!

Leighann

It was not so much to do with the racists jokes but the fact that he said he was looking forward to going out there to 'kill towel heads'

A huge difference I think you will see.

We do not tend to report on racist jokes, we tend to report on threats and people who wish to intimidate ethnic minorities.

Leighanne, "the majority of britain is racist, that's just how the world is these days."

Rubbish! Maybe 50 years ago but this is 2012 and most people are happy to get on with their lives and live and let live.

Dumb racists like you and Scott are a thing of the past.

Wow, I arrive late and see that the asylum must be on a day release scheme or something. Never seen so much idiotic denial in so few words. Well I have, but this is worth screenshotting in itself...sad to see women with so much irrational hatred...girls, it makes you look old and skanky years before your time if you carry that boiling cauldron around inside you...your hair will go grey, your face will screw up like you're chewing lemons and nobody will want to look at you except a pot-bellied old EDL thug...maybe that is your aim in life, in which case, good luck, but coming onto this forum and blatantly talking total bollocks has achieved nothing but incredulity on our part and a display of ignorance from yours.

He received administrative discharge. Hardly the crime of the century and he won't be the last, Especially in this current climate His discharge was not dishonorable and it was probably decided months ago way before these comments were posted. Good luck to the lad.

Alternatively, he doesn't quite get the concept of post visibility and anyone registered on facebook could see his insightful public comments and report them to facebook, along with the objectionable comments of his friends.

Whatever the reason for his discharge, those of us with an ounce of respect towards their fellow human beings and intelligence are glad to see the back of him from the forces.

There is literally no good excuse for that behaviour and no reason why young lads such as this should be given the honour of fighting for Britain.

He is a disgrace to the Nation and to the uniform. Good riddance, McHugh.

Racist bastards shouldn't be in the forces. Forces are filled predominantly with decent human beings doing a professional job - in a diverse environment, working closely with others regardless of differences. I'm a support of the forces and troops. I come from a miltiary family. This racist bastard doesn't belong. Who would trust him at thier side? Not me.

Quite a few things covered under the title of administrative discharge; could be considered physically or mentally unfit, have had issues with discipline or following orders, be viewed as a liability or a potential embarrassment to the army, have timekeeping or attendance issues, have failed to complete training to the required standard. Many reasons, but I wouldn't have thought they'd just discharge someone who has served in Afghan unless they had good reason. Perhaps he just couldn't limit his disgraceful bigotry to his facebook page and it became unbearable for the poor bastards who had to serve with him.

altho on his facebook page he is claiming he was best mates with all 6 soldiers that were killed last week,yep in this day and age thats a good enough reason to be a racist and have all your thick racist mates back you up. :-*

What we failed to emphasize in the article Nikki was that the 'killing towel heads' comments was made months before last week's loss to the Armed Forces.

Unfortunately, calling someone a keyboard warrior has little effect, certainly doesn't make me or anyone else using their computer to win a battle anything less...unfortun ately, there are a lot of people who thinks wars are still fought on horseback, with big strong guys taking arrows to the chest and carrying on storming the enemy...nowhere near the reality of today, of course, where the guys winning the battles are indeed armed with a laptop and some intelligence, something CxF and their other "Army Reject" groups hate, because it makes the meathead no more than a thick bastard who can take a punch...

You fell at the first hurdle there didn't you. being racist is a crime and is illegal and if you had served in the forces you would be intelligent enough to know that. Also threatening to go on a mass killing spree is going to get you locked up.

Claiming that all soldiers feel that way also makes me suspect that you are a walt because British soldiers are a hell of a lot more professional than that, but carry on insulting them.

Can anyone actually tell me the last time the army defended this country? And when 7/7 took off, were they of any use? Were they fuck...

@Leighanne
You are a moron of the highest level. And the worst thing is you speak with such a smug tone your the kind of person that makes the automatic assumption that their always right.
I am actually in the process of joining the British Army. I want to be a combat medic. I was made to run with the Army 3 times and was evaluated on it. The first time I met an Indian man there. He was there because he could join the British Army due to the Commonwealth. Everyone liked him. The second time there was another Indian man. Again people liked him. And guess what there was another foreign man the third time.
People join the British Army from all over the world. I wonder if you appreciate their sacrifice as you do the sacrifice of those born in Britain. Doubt it.
When I get in if I go to Afghan do you really think it would be appropriate to dislike someone based on their country of origin? If you wear the uniform your part of the family. One day you may rely on a 'Paki' to save your life. If you carry grudges against entire races you could get someone killed.
You really don't know what your talking about that's why I'm so angry at you. I only JUST made it past army selection due to team work tasks. The army requires you to pass tasks involving team work and their very challenging. If you are a racist your really going to struggle with them. It's designed to catch people who can't work as a team either due to lack of confidence or personal prejudice.
You don't know this and yet you have the audacity to say
'If you look you would probably find that over 50% of british soldiers are racist'
Yeah fucking right. It would mean half the bloody army would be unable to function. Do SOME racists slip past? It appears so. But most of them joined at a time when the army would of recruited ANYBODY. Their not desperate anymore. God knows when I'll get in the waiting list is that long.
I know you think you've just defended the military but you've just insulted them all.
I'm in such a bad mood now I've read your comment I really am.
Get this through your head: YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE MILITARY. Don't pretend you do.

The funny thing is you're all slandering him, if he's been before i'd understand if he was slightly racist as some soldiers are due to events of the tour, if he's only just passed training an waiting to be deployed then chances are he'd get beaten by a commanding officer, he's unhealthy for his line of work. But people who are dicrediting the army can fuck off, don't blame us for being in wars it's not our doing an most of us are well aware its for heroin we're not stupid, however we are just doing are job we are not serving this fucking country we are being paid to do a job, unfortunately this job will fuck with your mind, common beliefs and the personality of a person but again we are just doing a job an as long as there are governments or people in power there are going to be armed forces but lay off the army, it's getting harder to get in nowadays as it is so maybe the cunts will be weeded out have to wait and see, but the people sat behind a computer screen slandering the armed forces can fuck right off not all soldiers are like that, whenever i see a fellow soldier whether they're a different ethnicity or religion whatever i see a brother in arms who will have/protect my back until the end. Clearly the attention should be made to whats happening in modern day britain news reports of terrorism mainly due to america is a fucking lie and a scandal and the fact they've given a general description to the world of HOW the 'enemy' should look is ridiculous, the modern culture of today is a joke and a lot of the people in britain are as well.
