Uck, saw the same discussion happening all over the place yesterday. One even managed to factor in not wearing a poppy vs. burning a copy of the Koran ("cos der both just bits of paper, blud!")
Im not saying im agreeing with them, because I dont. But I do feel everybody should be treated the same in this respect. The tram woman was a tnuc, and was racially abusing people. So she 100% deserves to go to prison, and I honestly hope they take her child away from her. However the muslim girls should have been treated in exactly the same way, there was racists abuse and obviously there was physical violence here too. There should be 1 rule for everybody, no grey areas. Racist abuse is racist abuse. Physical violence is physical violence.
you're right, it was a poor decision from the judge, and if you actually see the footage its pretty disgraceful
its still a part of this new wave of anti-Somalian propaganda that seems to be sprouting up everywhere tho, saw three stories in tuesday's metro all painting Somalians in very bad light, from racist and violent attackers to pirate's who're ruining our economy to benefit frauds and illegal immigrants who are.... ruining our economy
there's hundreds of cases like the Somalian attack one every week in Britain, involving white british people, black people, asian people, and probably some of them involving a racial element, and im also guessing a lot of them with pretty ridiculous outcomes
not excusing the attackers, just saying its not an indictment of the British justice system's supposed 'one-rule-for-them' system

Yeah, I'm not saying they should be sent down because they are Somalian, Im saying it shouldnt matter what colour the attackers are in relation to the victims, if its a racially motivated assault it should be the same outcome whether its a white person attacking an asian person, a black person attacking a white person etc etc.

yea i know you aren't sayin that, i didn't suggest you said that either
what i was saying is that that particular news story is being used as an indictment of our judicial system, people are picking that story to represent a number of issues, in conjunction with a recent barrage of anti-Somalian news, stirring up both anti-islamic and anti-somalian sentiment which is unnecessary and blatantly agenda-backed
its a straw-man
to even start claiming Muslims, and Muslim immigrants/refugees/asylum seeker have anywhere near 'more' rights legally than white British people is ridiculous, the same people claiming this next minute will be chattin on about Mrs. Webster next door who's never been to work in her life yet has a detached house, 8 kids and a Land Rover funded by the State (regardless of whether her disability or ailment is real or not).
its pick a victim time

That's what I was trying to explain to them but no as far as they were concerned everything is set up against them in England just because they hear what the daily mail tells them happens in England. They even claimed that shows like the Jeremy Kyle show only have white guests to try and cast negative views against the white population in England.

tbh i can believe that Jeremy Kyle one
its very obviously vetted and tailored to suit a particular audience
i dont however, think its part of an anti-white conspiracy
i just think they're cleverly targetting a specific demographic, just because it isn't explicitly called 'white trash TV' doesn't mean thats not what its supposed to be, thats EXACTLY what Jerry Springer was/is

Sorry, didnt mean to make it sound like you did.....but yeah I can see that is how it came across in what I wrote. Soz.
Yeah it almost feels like the papers were looking for another story (not that they arent always anyway) after the tram thing.
Like you said, Im sure theres alot of similar cases everyday involving white, black, asian people that dont get picked up by the papers. It really does annoy me some of the stuff papers decide is news worthy and stuff that isnt!I know im lazy and could actually find out alot more myself, but what is put in the papers is never even nearly the whole story!

yeah thats exactly what it felt like to me, it was like 'here's the Tram thing, now lets cause MORE uproar with the Somali thing cos now we can ride this bullshit Toboggan for another 2 weeks'
both cases on their own are kind of boring, run-of-the-mill incidences of stupidity and ignorance, the papers picked up on them and the whole thing has ballooned

Got woken up by some old christian tnuc and his little lackey knocking on my door.
Had a pamphlet with a picture of the aftermath of a flood with the title "Punishments from God?"
He said "We're here to talk about all the natural disasters lately being punishments from God.."
Then I said "No."
Then he said "You're not interested?
Then I said "No. Good day." and closed the door.
People have been through a lot this last year in christchurch, these assholes could be spending their time actually helping out in the community instead of peddling their little brand of christian guilt. It's pathetic. Fuck off back to whatever UK backwater you came from tnuc.
