Group think. I’d imagine one started and the rest joined in.

Absolutely shocking. They should be named and shamed. If they are old enough to kill someone they should be old enough to face the consequences.

 

Sure due to there age they will all get put in a youth hostel for a couple of years and that’s it.

Disgrace

There's no deterrent and no fitting punishment for crime anymore. Children are brought up now with no discipline and no morality. There's no respect for people or property. Unfortunately this is the way society has become and is going.

... or perhaps society is no more violent and sadistic per capita than it always has been, and the reason we hear more about these things now is because a. more people will typically lead to more such incidents and b. greater news coverage on various media of such events.

 

This is a fvcking awful crime and those involved need to have the book, the bookcase and the entire library thrown at them. But there's no actual evidence for the idea that thinking that kids as a whole are less moral and more violent now than they were fifty, a hundred or a thousand years ago, just prejudiced jumping to conclusions based on hearing about these very nasty events.

As I was always taught

 

1 boy = 1boy

2 boys = 1/2 boy

3 boys = No boy at all = all sense and natural behaviour vanishes.

Just wait now for do-gooders brigade with their wretched list of excuses, broken homes, anxiety issues and any other crap you can think of.

It was a racist attack (I know for a fact), and just one of similar but not so violent racist incidents by a group of kids in the same area over the last couple of months. 

 

Probably gammon scum parents passing their habits onto their offspring. Throw a bit of Andrew Tate in and that's how a lot of teenagers are going today. I'm actually very surprised how right wing the 12-15 age group seem to be, but understand its trendy on TikTok.

I have no words if that’s true. Judging by the ages it wouldn’t surprise me if siblings were involved. I’m not usually one for punishment of parents but if they will have picked up those views from somewhere

Nonsense, I don't think so.

 

Again we'll have to agree to disagree which has become all too often with you.

For what it's worth, I also agreed what you posted was pure ignorance but I can't be arsed anymore with you.

Leicestershire Police have referred themselves to the Police Complaints Commission 

because I believe they’d had previous contact with the deceased gentleman.

[ClaphamFox]

Four released with no further action, one boy still in custody.

Been targeted before and reported it to police no doubt.

There’ll be plenty of people on here that come from broken homes and who have anxiety issues.

 

I like to think I’m a ‘left wing do-gooder’, I believe in giving people the best opportunity to succeed in life out of adversity, I believe in rehabilitation, but I also think it would be very morally difficult to justify trying to give this person a light sentence if indeed it is them. Our justice system isn’t the soft touch people think it is especially in these extremely distressing cases, for example Brihanna Ghey’s killers had all sorts of issues and still got deserved life sentences.

As details of this horrific crime emerge there can be no defence of the mindless hoodlums.

I never have to disagree with him because his posts have been either clear wummery or the product of a mind addled by age and medication. Such is the sheer stupidity of almost every single opinion he has that he went on block an age ago - I suggest everyone does the same and leave him screaming into a void.

I can't work out whether he writes for tabloids or just reads them all.

FFS. Really?

 

You really are a parody of a proper thinking human being.

Exactly what has been reported in today's national press, 

 

In July an incident was reported to police after Mr Kohli was allegedly verbally abused by a group of young people near his home, the Guardian reports.

The 14 year old lad will be charged in the next hour or so. Be interesting to see what the charges will be. My inkling is it won't be murder.
