Nonsense Foxy.

One law for them and one law for us.

Here in the UK they kill themselves far more often than whites kill blacks.
Well said.

Either they are unaware, or it doesn't fit in with their political leanings.

But it is now much of the sympathy for the BLM cause was lost with these riots .
Attacking the police horse and it’s rider ( a young woman who was badly injured ) caused utter repulsion here .
The sight of that poor terrified animal galloping through the streets was horrible to see .
Damaging public property is an absolute no no in this country .
We have to pay for it !
Hear hear.

This nonsense arose because of a policeman in America.
Suddenly, for some reason, the trendy yobs in Britain are blaming us and our police.

We should encourage them to to over to America to hold their protests (riots). I'm sure they'll be heartily welcomed over there.

It isn't.
However, it is likely to increase purely because of the present activities of protesting snowflakes and weak-kneed police.

As someone in your bible once said, "They know not what they do".

Re: Murder by Police - George Floyd

I see the mghty media who created ST George are now about to
crucify him by digging the dirt on his long history of vileness?
They are able to make or break kings?

Donkeyman! 👎🤔👍

It strikes me that some black people are just a bit too temperamental.....
Very true.

I don't know if anyone is watching the currently showing repeats of the Quatermass series.

It bears a remarkable resemblance to the unthinking rioters of today, with the exception that these idiots, in addition to destroying everything they can find, repeat "lay, lay, lay" all the time and, in time, become destroyed themselves by some sort of unknown force.

They're all young as well!

Just shows me how wrong I can be at times.

Truly, it is a sad, sad day for me.

AnnieS, I, of course, do not include you in that group. You DO "get it".
As one who apparently uses the accusation "racist" to people you do not know, you have certainly gone down in my estimation now that I have a much better idea of the sort of person you are.

Expect no further discussion with me. Thank you.

Re: Murder by Police - George Floyd

So we have the word 'Racist', which can be munipulated and used to advantage if so desired.

But what about the Irish, Scots, Welsh, which have been the butt of comedians for as long as I can remember?
Are these people about to leap up and start smashing things and attacking horses and innocent people next?

And what about small people, fat people, old people etc?
Are all these going to be in uproar now, too?

The difference is that most of the people you list are a bit more grown up and do not so easily take offence when it isn't intended.
