Wow that escalated quickly So can we all agree that regardless of race, these two were a pair of grade A cunds, who deserve to be publicly flogged, but instead will probably be sent on a African Safari to show them the error of there ways. One question that no one has asked, so I will, Say I was on that bus, and stepped in to help the old lady, and restrained the daft bitch until the Old Bill arrived, what then if she said I assualted her ? This is why the general public dont help out any more, I know its an old example but look at the farmer who got banged up for shooting burglars IN HIS HOME, over here he gets banged up, in the USA he gets a medal. There has to be something fundamentally wrong when passes by walk past a fellow human being in distress through fear of being prosicuted themselves. Case in point what was the bloody bus driver doing ? The police would look at the CCTV and take a statement from the driver and the women who got punched. As for nobody doing anything. In this case everyone had got off the bus as they were fed up waiting for these two slags to get off. The driver refused to continue as they'd refused to pay. Presumably he was sitting in his cab, and I dare say they're told to stay there in an incident for their own safety (and the pocket of their employers)

Makes me laugh. We must have two million or so people with African and Carribbean heritage living in the UK yet some still see their skin colour and automatically think 'crime'. How many of that two million are actually violent or into other anti-social misdemeanours? 10 per cent? 20? That would still leave 1.6 million who deserve a bit more than 'guilt by colour' Treat as you find. Even if living in an area where the crime committed is disproportionately by those of a certain ethnic background as the vast majority from that same background are not villains. Just normal folk going about their day.
Gang crime 'yes'. Call it that. There are more teenage gangs in Glasgow than London I believe. They don't commit 'white' crime. They commit crime. Well stats are stats and people will interpret them to suit their position. I find it difficult to draw any other conclusion than the fact that black people commit more knife crime. The complex social reasons as to why will not be on peoples minds when they are walking home late.

Following on from Danny's comment I just came across this. Some dozy feckers but at least other commuters were willing to step in

Where I lived never made me want to stab anyone although I have been stabbed many years ago.

He grabbed the arm of the one holding a knife and twisted it, broken arm. Punched the other - broken nose. It was reported by CCTV operator, OB came along & interviewed him then went to the hospital & arrested the muggers Police were fine about it, but a local councillor said he should be charged with GBH as he shouldn't have resisted - he should have just handed over his phone and wallet !

If there are problems in certain ethnic groups, we need to be able to discuss them freely without the "R" word being thrown around. Think back to the pakistani men raping girls in Rotherham, people who raised the problem were sent for diversity training, this meant nothing was done while children were being raped.

Let's say, whether true or not, that white people commit more financial crime? Is that then something we should endlessly fixate on? The reality is that we blame individuals for crimes if they are white and taint the community as a whole when it relates to black people. The same goes for other minorities of course. If someone commits a crime, arrest them, if they don't, leave them alone. That's the best way to improve community cohesion.

If I lived in Kenya, and vast majority of financial crime was committed by white people, I would like it discussed with a view to finding a solution. I would be upset if the far right hijacked to score points, as I would be upset if the left continued to deny there was a problem.

You are proving my point as you believe the groups of people who should be put under the microscope and held accountable as a type are minorities. Why do we only need to find solutions for minority problems and not the manner in which we talk about them and how our attitudes play a role in them sometimes feeling detached from society in the first place. This is a story about two idiot girls and it would be best that we hold them firmly to account for their actions rather than talk about 'blacks' much in the same way that we would not ever begin to talk about 'the whites' in the UK.

To add to the above, I didn't here too many people speak out saying that the 'white community' has a problem to deal with when yet another misguided and sick youth goes nuts with a gun in the States and starts murdering black people in the hope of starting a race war. The two girls on the bus are a symptom of modern Britain, not race. Look at the 2011 riots. A section of Croydon kids, white black & mixed race, will behave like arseholes regardless of race given the chance. That sickens me. I was brought up to respect adults.
