Actually, that was not what I said. There is no doubt in my mind that Caribbean culture, particularly Jamacian, has always been associated with drugs and gang violence. You now seem to have stopped pretending otherwise. Clearly, and obviously to anyone sensible person, not all gang and street crime can be attributed to one demographic. I'm not interested in your excuses and 'underlying causes'. There is no excuse for being murdering scum. The fact you think there is tells me that we are unlikely to find common ground on this. As a White Englishman, my perspective is one of someone who is old enough to have seen the steady decline in this country as regards criminality, mostly due to years of immigration. It is regrettable if you take that personally. And there you have it. Sound analytical judgement indeed. I don't take it personally at all. Why would I? I shan't lose any sleep over this although it's a shame, imo, that fear-based prejudice should hold such sway over people. It so often leads to enmity, suspicion and yet more fear. That's not the kind of world I want to live in, really. But hey-ho. I don't suppose a stupid troll like me has any chance of making any difference to your views. Lol.

450 arrests per 10,000 - what for Glasgow alone? Over what period of time - arrests for what crime? How many of the 250 NHC carnival arrests were white people? Google it. I'm truly not arsed about showing people what they already know about their bias.
La la la your mum |

Happy Carnival everyone Can you imagine the reaction if the level of violence and crime on Monday was at another event such as Cup Final Day, or a music festival. Time has come to get this annual crime fest off the streets where people have to live their daily lives. Find another venue somehow. Edited by HKOwen (31 Aug 2022 11.22am)
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

Edited by HKOwen (31 Aug 2022 11.22am) I have no interest in any such events, not because of the demographic of the attendees nor what it is celebrating. It’s just festivals etc have never been my “thing”

Edited by HKOwen (31 Aug 2022 11.22am) Can you imagine a white bloke punching a black woman to the floor in front of a massive crowd and on camera? Just imagine it and what would follow, who might speak out about it from the celebrity world, the media, the 'campaigns', the slogans, the gesturing, the ludicrous narratives, the riots etc etc? Men hitting women is not something exclusively owned by any community or what have you, but the apparent acceptance of it does seem to differ. The most cowardly thing in the world, can only go one worse really.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |
