I said before I think it run its course/lost its impact a while ago, but as long as the players want to do it I’ll support them. We have a young team with many players from different backgrounds that are subject to streams of racist abuse constantly. If they want to make a stand against it they have my full support. When did kneeling start and for what reason danh?

Do you have a chat with your black mates when whites are attacked and/or killed by blacks? Yes. But also, not related at all to the point I was responding to. I thought you had more intelligence than that, Stirling.

So what changes; apart from street dullard abusing you, need to happen. Equality is here and tbh it is not equal really as ethnic non whites get to the front of the queue now just because they're not white. It's not a notion, blacks do get better treatment than whites so you won the war. Now put your blm placard down and assimilate and enjoy the power you have just by being black.

That's disgusting if that was the case. Is there evidence it was racially motivated? Multiple eye witnesses who heard the group of men hurl racist abuse at the kid before they chased and stabbed him

Will be interesting to see if his race was the determining factor in the killing. Too often, the media (and the public) make assumptions before seeing the full evidence, which will come out in the trial. Let's hope the perpetrators get maximum sentences. It seems that footballers kneeling didn't make a jot of difference to these scumbags' intentions. Edited by Penge Eagle (07 Jun 2021 8.28pm)

No answer to black on black murders like 50 in a weekend in Chicago. Black lives only matter when killed by a copper or a white person apparently. Do you understand that the root cause of blacks killing blacks, isn't racism? Why are you quoting Chicago? I thought what goes on in the US is irrelevant to us in the UK? Anyway, you showed your true colours a few pages back, zero interest having any sort of conversation with a racist.

People are responding to how you framed your response and pointing out different perspectives. As for the whole 'racism' topic. I regard it all as an inevitable consequence of pushing unfiltered groups of people into the same areas. Balkanization is inevitable and a certain proportion of violence will have a certain level of ethnicity attached to it..more often it's between non white groups...It's not pleasant but I've seen it in person myself. It will happen with all groups but certainly more against whites than the reverse, which is why you received the response you did. Edited by Stirlingsays (07 Jun 2021 8.30pm)

Didn't ask. Ok, fair enough. Still, Was you asked for a response before you gave one? No matter.

I have come to realise that it is a complete waste of time trying to reason with people who have lost any capacity for objectivity. There are clearly many reasons why the whole knee bending nonsense is so so wrong, but you will never convince the indoctrinated or those that feel some hugely disproportional sense of victimhood. It might be time for to completely ignore some of the idiots on here who constantly cry racist or deliberately try to fudge or divert from the mess that allowing self serving politics has caused or any of the other issues surrounding the artificial creation of racial issues in 2021. A sensible post. Many think like you but lack the ability to articulate it so succinctly so well done for cutting through the crap and nailing it in just a few paragraphs.
