My argument is that they're putting a strain on our services, which they are. If that wasn't the case, why would benefits tourism even be a thing? It's common sense that so many people in such a small island wil create a strain on everything. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-30011512
Sure, people are always going to abuse the system, both nationals and non-nationals.

I just think that the proportion of immigrants coming over to use the benefit system are exaggerated, as is the negative impact it has on society at large.

I don't think the minority who do come over with the intention of mooching the benefit system is enough to justify the negative discourse that frequently surrounds immigration, especially when most people abusing the system are actually native citizens.
It is exaggerated the biggest strain on resources let alone money is WASTE.
From the NHS to the BBC there is soo much waste in the system it's insulting.

Really? I haven't seen anything like that about him.What happend to innocent until proven guilty? Did it go out of fashion?
Have you watched his videos? He is proud of this, he doesn't try to hide it at all. YIKES.
People advocate killing of all jews, blacks, whites, men etc and still get admitted into country since there is no proof that they did it. That is innocent until proven guilty. Is equal treatment for ALL so hard to comprehend?
Immigration control has nothing to with innocence before guilt, the Home Office can legally refuse entry to anyone they think might be a problem (it is in fact an obligation). They do it on a regular basis although (in)famous people like this guy are more likely to get their attention rather than any random racist, outside of people on watch lists of course.

You live here and you haven't seen any of these?

The first one is a stand alone incident, and while that's terrible, it's hardly representative of immigrants as a whole, funnily enough the people involved are British-Pakistani, so they were born in this country, not immigrants.

The second was not proven, so I'd take that with a huge pile of salt.

The third is in regard to wills, which is a pretty moot point because you can specify whatever the fuck you want in a will anyway, this just makes it easier for lawyers to write them up in regards to Muslims.

Edit: Done goofed my quote -__-

May I just suggest that you make a thread about this in R&P and have all the heated discussion you want, there. All of this is turning into a hated and heated "Us vs Them" situation that has been happening too many times on this site and everywhere else.
He asked for citations, I gave him them. I'll leave now if you want, when the person arguing against me seriously uses my age and comedians to back up their points I know an argument isn't going anywhere.

You can do as you wish. I am not stopping you from speaking your mind, just gave you a suggestion about how to have a better debate via R&P. What ever tactic someone uses to have a debate with you is up to them. One advice, Debates shouldn't be hated with a hint of name calling or labelling. That will defeat any point being made and make the discussion toxic.

I couldn?t care less whether or not he comes into the UK (for whatever reason, he doesn?t seem to have been reprimanded by the authorities for sexual assault); ironically, I just find it funny that these loser men are believing what he, the self-styled ?pick-up artist?, is saying, and laughing along with his pathetic misunderstanding of women and foreign cultures. Unfortunately, there are a lot of guys who actually are like this, and how they manage to get girls I?ll never know. It?s all bluff and no buff.

Oh, and could someone explain to me why I?ve never heard anything actually good about any of these ?pick-up artists?? Why don?t these guys just go on a dating website or something, rather than taking the advice of some overcompensating twat like Blanc (and others from RSD)? He?s basically Jay Cartwright from The Inbetweeners, with simultaneously x10 the nerve and the sexism. Just looking from his Twitter page, I genuinely can?t tell whether or not he?s making the darkest of ?jokes?, or he?s being serious and actually believes the shit that he?s spewing.

Honestly, I say this now: if you are a girl and you meet a guy like Blanc who treats you like shit, fucking report them. It doesn?t matter if you or other people think you?re ?making it a big deal out of it?, ?cos they?re wrong. It?s sexual harassment. Otherwise, it gives the message that they can continue doing it and it?ll just make it that much harder for guys like this to get convicted because they can get away with it.

Anyway, I wonder how many girls he?ll be able to pull now that he?s been outed. This past few months have been nothing but dumbasses? empty apologises for their egocentric, morally debauched tomfoolery. I probably sound like some oldie, but I?m 19 years old, and I still know better than this 25-year-old man-child who appears to still be weeping over the times he got ?friend-zoned? in high school.

And ToastiestZombie, can your UKIP-style anti-immigration rhetoric; this isn?t the thread for it.

I'm not the one calling names. The mere mention of my age, UKiP and the Daily Mail. make the argument heated in my eyes because it implies they see me as inferior. I'm gonna shut up now before more snarky remarks are made about my beliefs.

Wasn't this guy also kicked out of Australia?

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/leader/central/pickup-artist-controversy-in-melbourne-julien-blanc-looks-for-new-location-for-his-seminar/story-fngnvlpt-1227113749082?nk=c6443daa79bad378d130a4d7fa7d9c47

Yep, it's the same guy. Guys, this isn't some lowly pick-up artist. No, this guy is ten times worse. This is a guy who said that white men could do anything in Tokyo. This is a guy who proudly showed him grabbing women and forcefully shoving their faces into his crotch. This is a man that promotes chocking women who say no to one night stands until they say yes. This is a disgusting excuse of a man and, let's face it, people have been denied entry to a country for less.

rape=/= sexual assault. Rape requires penetration. Yes women ion film have rejected his advances, and there have been MANY recorded cases of women letting him know it was not consensual. People are not entitled to walk up and touch and kiss others without their permission. The thing is he is proud of doing this.
Okay, that's sexual assault, which is still a crime. Yet, no criminal record of it?

As I said, yeah, that sounds like a really dumb thing to do, and you're going to offend people at the very least!

But, I find it hard to believe there's nothing criminal reported for it. And if there's nothing criminal, it seems a bit far to ban somebody from a country for acts that aren't even illegal, or have been reported as such.

Apperantly, women need to be protected by the state from being persuaded into having sex. Because they are like children and can't take responsibility for themselves. Un-be-fucking-lievable.
There seems to be a fundamental lack of understanding on how pick up artistry, or 'Game Theory' as it sometimes is called, works. Perhaps I can assist.

What Julien Blanc and his ilk teach is not how to sleep with any women you want, but how to target the weak and systematically break down what little defense and self respect those people have. They're rarely called to answer for their harassment because they carefully choose women who are statistically unlikely to report they're behavior, and then emotionally and physically threaten and abuse these women to cow them into submission. Mr. Blanc doesn't turn PH. D, candidates into emotional unstable women - he selects emotionally unstable or passive women and takes from them what he wants. Also take into account that his more recently filmed 'exploits' occurred in foreign nations he was visiting - places where he left before any fair investigation could take place, and of which extradition would be, lets face it, impractical and unlikely to happen considering the nature of the crimes he's committed.

That being said, I'm unsure if that qualifies him for denial of entry into a country - it does seem a bit extreme, and likely an abuse of state power. I do think that what we know about Julien Blanc certainly should disqualify him from seeking citizenship of a state (If he ever tried), and if any country that allows him entry dedicated a few police officers to follow him about while he was in country, I would consider that tax money well spent.
You seem on the up and up. I got into a bit of a tiff with a feminist over if Pick Up Artists are "movement", like feminism itself. This person made the claim that the PUA Movement was destructive.

I mean how would it be a movement? It's one dude who I've gathered (including from your post) just teaches guys to be a aggressively persuasive. That does not a movement make, no?

The accusations are well founded. He took down the video, because he wanted to hide the proof, put he put up his speech in Japan. In it, he said that "White man can do anything to women here" and showed a video in which he grabbed women and forced their face into his crotch, laughing while the women were clearly saying no. So yeah, all sympathy is lost and he just proved himself that he is guilty a hundred fold.

Encourages kissing and touching without consent? Well fuck this guy. Good on the UK
To be fair, I've never seen anyone give actual consent to a sudden kiss. There are no papers to file, there is no verbal declaration made.. it just happens. Technically, what this guy is doing isn't a problem unless someone files charges against him, and everyone he encounters is free to do that. It's not like he's killing these women or even threatening them afterwords. There is absolutely no magical barriers stopping them from filing police reports and getting him arrested.

I don't deny the guy is a giant asshole, sure, but denying people from your country for being offensive is a slippery slope that could potentially have no end. When do we start banning people from our countries for making movies we find politically offensive? Drawing gory art? Having diseases like HIV? If you really want to play the "danger to citizens game" so loosely, technically that last one is a larger threat because if they chose to sleep around and/or got in an accident of some kind, the people in your country will be at risk.

He has videos of himself groping total strangers in public. If a country feels a person will be a liability on the current population, they are perfectly within their rights to deny them entry.

So the guy started out making videos of him doing this and showing how he got the girls not to report him. Guys wanted to now how to do that too, so now he charges them money for him to teach them how to sexually assault women and manipulate them into not reporting it. Sure Some of the videos have been pulled now due to the nature of them, but MANY people already viewed them before they took them down. I am sure they exist somewhere on line still. DID you miss this happening when the videos were put up in the first place?
And that makes his actions more deplorable than what I described? Freedom of speech means swallowing things that you find utterly disgusting and deplorable too. Well, at least I'm taught so.
No, freedom of speech just means the government won't prevent you from saying something, it doesn't mean people can't group up and shout him down.

This tidbit from one of the articles is particularly unsettling:

Video clips of Blanc on YouTube show him shoving women?s faces into his crotch and on one occasion assaulting a Japanese checkout worker ? who appears to be deeply uncomfortable ? by kissing her neck and ear. He is shown speaking to a room full of men who laugh at his anecdotes, at one point commenting about women in Japan: ?If you?re a white male, you can do what you want. I?m just romping through the streets, just grabbing girls? heads, just like, head, pfft on the dick.?
I'm not sure I'd want to let someone in my country who publicly promotes sexually assaulting people.

The mentality is actually so disgusting. I know someone who has just stopped saying "no" when people ask her for sex because she's learned that nobody listens to it. It's sad when you have someone who's had sex a lot and says that she's never once done so because she enjoyed it

As much as I find the entire PUA to be pretty sad and worth of ridicule, I must say I'm not a fan of excluding someone from a visa on the grounds that you don't like their flirting tactics.

Now if he really did grope women or somesuch, that's a different story.

Oh and is silly as this whole pickup stuff is, equating it to rape is just hilariously retarded. Nothing wrong with a person being successful with girls he hits on. (you know, except if there is something to that groping stuff up there. that's a different story)

Thing is, it has. He is the kind of person who's not very concerned with consent.
Well, has any women he's slept with claim it was non-consentual?

Does he have any rape charges against him?

Has he committed any crimes at all!?

I mean, don't get me wrong, he seems overly eager, but, it's a bit far to accuse somebody of being a potential criminal given there have been no events prior that give any indication of such thing being something he's capable of.
He advocates sexual assault and mental abuse as pickup techniques, and several of his videos involve him grabbing women by the throat and/or pushing their heads towards his crotch.

You may need to research the things he has done, things he has tried to hide and some of his tweets and approach to women of different cultures ie. Japan. It's not pretty and has been seen to use physical action.

Yeah that physical stuff? that's a big no no. If it was just some flirting tactics, no matter how assholish some people might think they are, I'd be firmly against forbidding him entry.
