But if you have media creating divisions - groups will try to protect their own, regardless of whether that makes any sense at all. The situation in NI is another example. True, media have a lot to answer for in this country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mob mentality -- also called herd or hive mentality -- is the inclination that some humans have to be part of a large group, often neglecting their individual feelings in the process, and adopting the behaviors and actions of the people around them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Barry Hammond Posted 18 July Share Posted 18 July It’s certainly an ‘interesting’ set of sentances @EnderbyFox I’ve only read a couple of summary newspaper reports, but I believe the 5 were regularly pissing the judge off and received several contempt of court charges during the trial - not likely to help you when it comes to sentancing. It was also suggested that the policing cost was in the region of £1 million. I expect both the charges and sentences to be appealed - and possible shortened - but I think the end result will still be a custodial sentence. What is also clear is to characterise the actions as merely a ‘protest’ is disingenuous - the actions crossed a line. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exceptionally frustrating at it leads to aspersions and expressions such as this. Nothing between those big ears of his Many saying it was child taken by social services in the Romanian community which triggered it. Not that either rumour/assumption is correct at this stage.

There’s also suggestions a local councillor or two were on the scene too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably won’t read it, but at least you will have had an input to my next post that causes you to attribute subtext to and get vexed about. PS. I’m off my fvcking tits. But hey, I’ve climbed the stairs and tried to get into bed, and the searing pain has offered me a moment of clarity. Currently in Leeds, neither you nor I has a fvcking clue what’s going on. Nor do the legions of bots, trolls and basic cvnts on Twitter. Consequently, am I more upset about (rather than angry) racists on Twitter being racist d1cks? Fvck yes. Because even if it is a certain group of people doing something incredibly dumb, whoever they may be, they aren’t representative of hundreds of thousands of individuals currently not trying to set fire to a bus with a Bic lighter. Now I’m sure the Daily Mail or whatever you read would like us all to vilify swathes of people because of their origin, religion, skin colour or sexuality…but I’m sorry to inform you that this is not a much touted British value. We true Brits are a damn sight more tolerant. And with that I’m going to embrace my nighttime morphine. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st albans fox Posted 19 July Share Posted 19 July Interesting that the houthis managed to get a drone through Israel’s air defences to kill someone in tel aviv this could well affect the public mood re taking on hezbollah - the IDF are apparently speaking about human error. Of course they are. Otherwise the country is screwed because the Iranians have hundreds of thousands of these attack drones and they are easily and cheaply replaced. food for thought for Europe too if we do come to blows with Russia and I also noticed some terrorist suspects arrested in Spain yesterday who had drone weaponry with them - connections to hezbollah if I remember correctly.

You think that's bad, last night Reddit wasn't loading comments so I went to look at WACCOE to see if they knew what had cracked off. Holy shit the racism. Like not even subtle, no dog whistling, no nothing, just all of them saying it out loud like it's cool. Also, I don't know if the family is Romanian or Romani or if they're Romani from Romania but one thing is for sure is that most British don't understand the difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
