Rwanda is largely Christian from a religious standpoint. Folk are smashing stuff up and rioting as they want to pin this on immigrants. People are upset that his name doesn’t sound Welsh. They want to smash up Mosques, as that’s a convenient excuse to be a racist. We’ve not yet seen anything about smashing up the local Church. Some are blaming labour. Some are blaming the Tories. Some Americans are blaming the lack of guns in the country, as he clearly wouldn’t have done a shed load more damage with an AK47, rather than a knife. Starmer has setup a task force to stop people rioting. We don’t yet have a motive for why he targeted a Taylor Swift dance class. Zombie knifes are readily available for some unknown reason, as we all know we need to purchase one for the impending zombie apocalypse (I’d not seen these until today). Drill music is rather aggressive apparently. I got really confused when people were saying Grime was the root cause of this and couldn’t remember Stormzy being that aggressive. I’m not yet sure what Drill is. It would appear from social media that the use of machetes is becoming more frequent. When you think about it, why do knifes have pointy ends? We need some quick and decisive punishments for carrying knifes, aggressive rioting, racism and domestic violence. Can I suggest we build an Alcatraz style prison in the North Sea and just house all the nutters there? Bottom line, is that nationality, race, skin colour, religion, heritage, hair colour, gender etc don’t make someone a killer. We need a motive to better understand what has driven this horrific event. Perfect summary. Could we get this to go viral instead of the ridiculous far right Twitter knuckleheads posts. Some people in this country need to have a serious look at themselves and actions including some so called politicians storing hate up. Farage and Anderson have acted disgustingly in my opinion.

slymunn Posted 1 August Share Posted 1 August 2 hours ago, foxy boxing said: I know a lot of people with autism and they wouldn't even think of hurting anyone. They would most likely hurt themselves. People with autism suffer burnout or have sensory issues and may not be able to communicate verbally. They get upset and have fitts of frustration or anger but don't usually violently attack people. They certainly wouldn't plan a vicious attack. Just because he has autism doesn't mean his condition made him do what he did, and shouldn't be used as an excuse. Many people have autism they don't all kill innocent random strangers. The motive is still unknown and probably has more to do what he did rTher than his autism. My brother has autism and when he was younger almost used anger/violence as a way of venting his anger and frustration. It was never a planned attacked, but just took it out on whoever was nearest as he couldn't cope with the situation at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borders aren't really my thing (they are after all just a political/economic construct and increasingly a dividing line) and I mostly consider myself a person of planet Earth. I'm not really arsed if I'm English, British, Swedish or Yiddish to be honest. Whys that odd? I said the majority not every person. Ive never been on holiday and met someone who says ‘Im British’. Its ‘Im Welsh/Scottish/English/Northern Irish’. Im not sure theres such thing as a Welshman who would class themselves as British before Welsh Edited 1 August by South Shire Fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sampson Posted 1 August Share Posted 1 August All reminds me of that old joke: Hiw do you define being English? Being English is about driving home from work in your German car, to stop off at an Irish themed pub, drinking a Danish lager, then going home and otdering an Indian takeaway on your Korean phone to eat while sitting on your Swedish sofa and watch American tv shows on your Japanese tv. All the while remaining suspicious of anything remotely foreign. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ALC Fox Posted 2 August Popular Post Share Posted 2 August 8 hours ago, urban.spaceman said: Farage stirring the pot. ****ing disgraceful. 1. Offers an excuse for the existence for the far right, immediately lending his sympathy towards them. 2. Why is he sat there with two Union Flags behind him? He isn't the Prime Minister. He isn't a minister of any kind, nor a member of the ruling party. He's the MP of Clacton. 3. He's the self-appointed leader of a company masquerading as a political party that is not democratised itself. 4. He's advocating more stop and search powers with his hands held up while saying "regardless of skin colour". He knows Black people are more likely to be stopped and searched, quite often for no reason other than for being Black. Yet he's calling for it anyway, rather coincidentally after a horrific attack perpetrated by a young Black person. 5. He doesn't support street violence or street thuggery in anyway at all, but... That's a green light. It's a coded message saying it's acceptable in extreme circumstances. Even if he doesn't mean it and is 100% honest about condemning street violence in all circumstances, that 'but' will be seen as permission or encouragement to a deranged minority. 6. Not that they are comparable because the levels of violence and criminality and the percentage of the gathered crowds are nowhere near what was seen in Southport, but where was his sympathy for Black Lives Matter, Just Stop Oil, etc. It didn't exist. His supporter base is the far right, it's where he'll increase his influence in British politics if he's able to do so, and if he does it will be to the detriment of the whole country, not to mention ethnic minorities who will suffer the most. 7. "We need to start getting tough". Coded language, for me. Another green light for thuggery, whether intentional or not, whether outwardly condemning it or not. 8. Tougher sentences for people carrying knives. Hard not to agree with that actually. A repeat of the post-Dunblane approach with guns would be much better though. We need to restrict the sale of offensive weapons and make them much less available to the general public, then crack down on anybody selling them illegally. 9. "What you've seen on the streets of Hartlepool, of London, of Southport is nothing to what could happen over the next few weeks" - that's a straight-up call to arms in my opinion. What a disgusting, horrible little man he is. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Visit any hospital, look at most carers going into older peoples homes to care for them... but they ignore that, thinking someone well step up and fill the void, but they won't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Górnik Leicester Posted 2 August Share Posted 2 August 14 hours ago, StanSP said: didn't someone say he had 'Arab appearance' Some of the far right were saying it was a Muslim guy potentially there to cause more mayhem amongst the crowd. Many have been using him as a justification for the violence... So if the above is true, one of their own brought a knife to a vigil, Police arrested him, and the knuckle-draggers started kicking off at police and showed their blatant racism by attacking a mosque. Do I have that right? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lionator Posted 2 August Share Posted 2 August I find it alarming how quickly people have reframed a disgusting riot as 'protest'. Burning stuff and bricking mosques is not a protest, it's criminal violence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sincerely hope this does not lead to a backlash by ignorant who have no idea about the subject. Agreed - my son is autistic and to even mention it is distasteful at best tbh. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
