Originally posted by Tom-the-eagle Closer to home for me, you are more likely to be the recipient of a hate crime if you are Jewish than black. Anti-semitism is on the rise in many countries, France in particular where many Jews (often old people) Have been murdered in recent years. I don’t see anyone wanting to protest or take a knee for this. Why? Because it seems that blacks have the monopoly on playing victims. The irony in all this is that until you empower yourself you will always be a victim. Not as surprise when Europe is filling up with Muslims.

I remember putting the 'diversity job' adverts on here a few months back....organizations like the NHS giving jobs for 'diversity' while real workers are being laid off all round the country.

Originally posted by Rudi Hedman Bending down on one knee for a few seconds achieves nothing. If you ask them who the new black LBC presenter is, how she got into the broadcaster and what she’s been talking about for 6 months none of these footballers would know. You probably don’t either. Violent black on black violent crime you mean? A start of a lot of the problems nobody is allowed to or wants to risk their reputation or career addressing? Edited by Rudi Hedman (18 Dec 2020 12.25pm) I don't, you're right. Not a big fan of LBC, so I don't listen to it. If you believe that violent crime is only perpetrated by black people and/or it isn't a wider societal issue, fair play, but I don't agree. La la la your mum

The same foreign places where ignorance goes on you’re referring to aren’t going to change because of this and it changes barely anything here. Ask a black teenager in the future and find out.

Originally posted by Eaglecoops Now there is a question that hasn’t been answered by anyone and I don’t count, ‘stop being racist’ as an answer. This is why i mentioned Denise Headley. She does say she believes in equal opportunities rather than equality of outcome but she then goes onto list things that are equality of outcome, without realising it maybe, plus a load of measures or ‘help’ far beyond what other non achieving groups receive. Originally she made some fair claims and requests but I’ve noticed she’s gone a bit far. Maybe because nothing has happened during all this virtue signalling. If something had happened then maybe she’d focus on that. Edited by Rudi Hedman (18 Dec 2020 5.26pm) COYP

Originally posted by Teddy Eagle That article also says kneeling is in support of the BLM movement which you have repeatedly denied. If footballers want to raise awareness of any subject why not do it by playing an entire match without diving, cheating or trying to gain an unfair advantage. Taking a throw in from the right place would be quite newsworthy in itself. OMG! NOT the POLITICAL movement. That has specifically and comprehensively been denied by the players and the FA. The movement they mean is that of the awareness that something now needed to be done which started in the USA. This is an extract from that article. Politics isn't mentioned:- "The BLM movement and taking a knee has grown in prominence in the United Kingdom following the death of George Floyd in the US in May, which sparked protests around the world." Colin Kaepernick started it. This is just a continuation. No politics involved.
