Zat, you're really showing yourself for what you are. You refuse to accept or talk about genuine issues and have just spammed twitter for the few people in London that have gone too far. I don't see you posting any of the videos of the peaceful protests in Hyde Park today.

I will try to say once again, which you won't listen to, a minority do not represent the majority.
I'll also just clarify, I live in London and have done for over 20 years. So I know what it's like.

I will not defend people abusing the police but you have picked a few examples to make a point. The vast majority are not causing a problem
The UK is not as bad as the US in terms of black people fearing they could die through any interaction. But black people still have to deal with the police way more than white people do

"Youve shown yourself for what you are"

What was it that made you begin a personal attack on me? The aerial footage? The singing? Or the police being attacked?

Why not post some videos yourself instead of attacking others for merely posting links to videos.

I dont see you posting any.

So these are people who have "gone to far"

Not "peaceful"...


Interesting...

I think you're the only person seeing the replies to your inflammatory posts as 'personal attacks'.

Maybe your Speedos are too tight?

There you go, I've just posted a bunch a peaceful protesters. We can both play this game of using Twitter as proof. Difference is I have the majority of peaceful people making a genuine point. You find the few "bad apples" to defend an indefensible point.

Why don't you want minorities to have the chance to redress the balance? What difference to your life will it make if black people have equal rights in the UK or US? Genuinely why don't you want it to happen?

Wizard you're really showing yourself for what you are. You refuse to accept or talk about genuine issues and have just spammed twitter for the majority of people in London that havent gone too far. I don't see you posting any of the violence in London.

I will try to say once again, which you won't listen to, a majority doesnt represent a minority.

By showing only the actions of a Majority of protestors you are ignoring the minority.

Which surely is against your views about how minorities should be able to "redress the balance".

People like yourself seem to make a huge deal out of listening to minorities and supporting them...but not the minorities you dont agree with, some of whom are within those minority groups.

You call some of the minority "bad apples" but then support the 'peaceful' minority protests.

So youre 'picking and choosing' which parts of the minority to support.

"Oh its fine if they protest peacefully, I'll support that, but not when they do things i dont like".

Very much a head patting exercise.
 
Stand by for a huge rise in coronavirus infections.

Exactly...then more protests about how the Government isnt doing anything about it.

Offtopic: But in Manila there are reports of police being infected now. Surely the same will happen in other countries where there are protests/riots...along with the general public bring the ones to suffer.

I like what you've done there and I have probably been a bit patronising. But if you read my other posts I am fine with all minorities. All my posts have been about respecting and trying to elevate minorities. Your issue is that you clearly feel that striving for equality is an offence on your situation.

I don't know anything about you Zat, we are aquaintances on a football forum. Maybe we would get on in a real life situation. But my point, which I will bang on about, is that I understand and respect the fact that people don't have the privilege I have. And I would love for that balance to be redressed. I will listen to people and try to learn from it. I've been really interested by reading about your experiences in Asia as I have no experience of that. But your experiences in Asia don't mean that black people in the US and the UK don't have it harder
