And there's the typical caring leftist. Forget about racial injustice, what really matters is following a politically correct, grammatically incorrect, way of writing black. I'll stick to writing it the way Larry Elder and other black American conservatives do.
Anyway, it's cocktail time again as my good friend and companion has arrived home. Spend half an hour on Larry Elder's twitter page and discover how so many things you think you know just ain't so. |
Lol. As if you have any friends 'Norman'.
Ah, the lies we tell to ourselves, about ourselves. Have fun playing dress up! |  |

Too many on the left are bigots, closed minded bigots. The only hope is that the scales might fall from the eyes of some of them as they mature and they see how mistaken they have been. They see a deeply racist country. I see one of the greatest countries on the planet for a black man or woman to be born in and live in. Everything is open to anyone in this country. The cruellest thing anyone can say to a black child is that society is stacked against them. There is a desire on the left on both sides of The Atlantic to infantilise blacks and persuade them to see themselves as victims rather than full and equal members of society. This is arrogant, condescending, patronising but worst of all it damages the lives of so many; but of course the leftists get to feel smug and superior and ultimately that is what matters most to many of them.
Nothing I have read on any thread on this message-board suggests that any poster is a true racist though it's quite possible I've missed one. But the left aren't interested in that. They are like the Witchfinder General; they're convinced there are racists galore everywhere so it stands to reason (their reason) there must be several on here.
Of course it is possible to disagree with the BLM movement and not be a racist; most non-racists do. |
Besides the fact that I have witnessed MrsN be subjected to racism on the Metro.
You really haven’t got a clue. |  |

“ stuffed full of angry mobs screaming at the Police ”
I would say that there wouldn’t be so much anger towards the police if they weren’t murdering so many non-whites in shocking ways.
The anger towards the police is just.
The anger towards the establishment and he system is just.
Peaceful protests do happen. But look at the mob of EDL and their counter protests. Peaceful it was not. |

There is a football discussion only section.
Cleverly disguised under a tab labelled 'football'. Top of the page.
And if you think he is encouraging 'that' then you are new to the discussion and have missed too much to make such daft assumptions.
Stick to football. |  |

Are George Floyd, Dalian Atkinson, Jacob Blake, Raysean White, Stephen Lawrence, all the lesser forms of racial discrimination seen in this country every day all just figments of our imagination?
Or are these just acceptable incidents in this wonderful panacea you paint that we fail to see?
I do not see a deeply racist country. The vast majority of people I know are not deliberately racist (although a significant number show unconscious racism often driven by falling for media agenda). However, there are people who are overtly and deliberately racist. Anyone who tries to justify and play down the above, you included, is a disgusting racist in my book. Which, of course, means you need to look in the mirror and see yourself if you are really looking for racist posters.
There is some truth in your last statement. It is possible to disagree with (some aspects of) the BLM movement and not be (overtly and deliberately) racist. However, I am not sure on what basis you claim most non-racists do. Definitely all racists oppose the BLM movement that is for sure. |  |

No it shouldn't. Black in the title of the evil organisation yes but black as an adjective should be lower case. |
I know you're gone and rightly so; you are not welcome here nor in Suffolk by any right-minded folk.
But I'm pretty sure in this context, Black as in Black Lives here is a noun.
Edit: mistake. [Post edited 19 Sep 2020 0:37]

Anger towards the police is not warranted at all. Its lame to blame them for everything, lazy In fact. A few cops do the wrong thing but are you suggesting that 99.9% of cops don't go out every day to try and do the right thing is rubbish.
Please try and find someone else to attack. In every walk of life a few do the wrong things, the police are no different, human beings like you and me that make mistakes. | |

Why wouldn’t you post a link that backs that up.
The Met Police were found to be institutionally racist, in the past weren’t they?
Out of interest, do you agree with the principle, that it is the minority group that gets to define what it finds un-acceptable and abusive?
Anyhoo, paedophilia. When priests were found to be abusing children, and were moved around, it was the Church that was seen as a bad actor for cover such things up.
When it was found out through enquires that people were aware of Jimmy Savilles’s activities, it was the BBC as an institution that was rightly criticised as an institution.
If you have 1 racist police office, and 100 police offers that know that, and nothing is done, then what you have is 101 bad police officers. |  | | |

No one has get explained to me what the goal of BLM will look like. What sort of society and rules will be in place? What will the politics be? Is there a country or culture in the world that we can look at and say ‘that’s what we aspire to be liked! I hear lots of rhetoric, name calling and finger pointing but I’m still no further forward in understanding what the end game is.
If I had to guess I’d say it sounds like a communist set up. But then communism seems pretty intolerant of those who don’t share its views, which hardly sits with the idealism of an anti racist movement. Unless of course it espouses tolerance for everyone as long as they agree with them - which sounds rather dangerous to me. |
Thus far, this is the most thoughtful post I have seen in this thread.
None of us know the ultimate and deep driving motives of the BLM and what it will eventually look like if implemented. Really none of us. Actually, the name in itself is a signal for caution if you perceive the possible underlying meaning or significance.
Take nothing at face value these days and before you lend your allegiance to something, penetrate to its core to see its veracity or not. Then if your heart sings, go forward. |  | | |

Apparently so. There's some pretty incredible leaps of logic being made by people so that they can justify to themselves withholding their support from an anti-racism movement. It's as bizarre as it is depressing | |
