Think they may know something about discrimination, or is that not hip now. Perhaps they were too privileged. Maybe. I'm half Irish, born during that period and know nothing about it. Are there parallels between that period and now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest that's directed to someone in these crowds. Perhaps the bloke with duck the cops placard. He's just down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstand Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 48 minutes ago, reverendo de duivel said: So you don't listen to black people unless they're politically aligned with Trump? Thank for your candour. How could the entire country be racist, that would make no sense at all? Black people close to Trump, of course their must be, after all not everyone's experience is the same. Why should black people have to better themselves, are they not good enough as they are? There was a black community leader in London that was talking common sense a couple of years ago but cannot remember his name (my age), but my mother-in-law had died about the same time so lost track of him. I don't follow anyone on social media because you get stuck in your own bubble then dismiss other peoples points of views because you end up being brainwashed. My point was to prove America is not as racist as the protestors would lead us to believe although I accept they have problems. Black people should better themselves so they can rise above victim status which exactly where the left wing and uni brats want them to remain forever. Sorry but out of office now will spend all of my time on LSE forum this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but out of office now will spend all of my time on LSE forum this week. John Barnes has apologies for a pornographic picture on twitter sent to him about Donald Trump. When will people ever learn really proves my point. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/john-barnes-apologises-for-posting-pornographic-image-on-twitter/ar-BB159I1e?ocid=spartan-ntp-feeds When a follower suggested that Barnes should have cropped the photo, Barnes replied: ”Don’t know how to do that... I’m afraid to press buttons on this phone. “I’m 56 yrs old, so happy to just be able to get one or 2 words out on twitter that people understand!!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it isn't happening. Bristol'sbeen debating #EdwardColston for years and wasn't getting anywhere. In 2018, it was agreed that statue would bear a plaque noting his involvement in the slave trade. BUT....” Interesting read on why it’s so hard to change the plaque on a statue let alone take one down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stive Pesley Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Tearing down statues is not a symbol of fascism. We went to the communist statue park just outside Budapest. They tore everyone of those statues down when the eastern bloc crumbled and moved them to a park so people could learn about them .

Pity we don’t have a Candance Owens in this country. You've brought her up about half a dozen times now and not got her name right once!

Comrade 86 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Were we not reliably informed that nobody would be stupid enough to drink bleach or cleaning products in the aftermath of Trump's suggestion that it 'might be worth a try'? It would seem otherwise... Coronavirus: Americans drinking and inhaling bleach to try to prevent COVID-19 infections - study Some 4% of those surveyed said they had drank or gargled bleach solutions, and 18% used household cleaning products on their skin. Americans trying to prevent COVID-19 infections have reported cleaning their food and themselves with disinfectant and bleach, with some even inhaling or drinking the household cleaning products, a study has found. According to research from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly four in 10 people (39%) admitted to actions the health protection agency would consider dangerous. The study took place in May shortly after President Donald Trump publicly asked whether injecting such products could treat COVID-19. Of the 502 adults surveyed, 19% said they had put bleach on food, including fruit and vegetables, while 18% admitted using household cleaning and disinfectant products on their hands or skin. Some 4% had drank or gargled bleach solutions, soapy water or disinfectants, 6% had inhaled vapours from household cleaners or disinfectants, and 10% said they had misted their body with a cleaning or disinfectant spray. Health officials have cautioned explicitly against such behaviour...

Sith Happens Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 I am trying to get my head around the logic that the protests only turn 'non-peaceful' because of police actions when protestors turn up with flares, smoke bombs and fireworks.... Maybe its normal stuff to carry round with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
