Webbo Posted 29 June 2016 Share Posted 29 June 2016 Most certainly. All of these incidents should be addressed, regardless of target. But, right now, would it be a safe assumption to say that in terms of numbers one problem is bigger than the other? There seems to be a lot of hate from the remain side too.

But, right now, would it be a safe assumption to say that in terms of numbers one problem is bigger than the other? Absolutely and it needs to be dealt with by the iron fist, a point I've often made to you regarding Islamic suicide bombers as compared to hate filled American Christian preachers. One is a far bigger problem than the other at the minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny the fox Posted 29 June 2016 Share Posted 29 June 2016 I think advocating that your position is the one that is "reality" and thus implying people who think differently aren't talking about reality, when the issue is really far from black and white, is a bit sanctimonious too, wouldn't you say? There probably isn't a hate campaign by leave voters per se, but there does seem to be an upsurge in incidents of such trouble since last Friday, which is worrying and should be talked about. reality is the images of hate I have posted..deny them..

Thracian Posted 29 June 2016 Share Posted 29 June 2016 Let's not pretend racism is just coming from the "leave" side post this vote. Someone was also carrying a "white aint right" banner at the "pro-EU" demo last night. Doesn't count - anti-white racial hatred doesn't exist. You need to keep up!

leicsmac Posted 29 June 2016 Share Posted 29 June 2016 There seems to be a lot of hate from the remain side too. Certainly. My view all along has been this whole thing has been divisive and raises hackles on all sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leicsmac Posted 29 June 2016 Share Posted 29 June 2016 reality is the images of hate I have posted..deny them.. And the anecdotes about people getting abused in the street are reality too. That's my point. There is much more than just one side to all this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MattP Posted 29 June 2016 Share Posted 29 June 2016 You've got to be a little pleased on the quiet that Julian Assange has finally escaped from the Ecuadorian Embassy. The years of isolation have been tough on him, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocking what some people are up to Such a wonderful country and being let down by idiots Or, we've always been idiots but now the country divide is out in the open, so to speak, people don't really give a damn what they say to upset other people.
