Nope, why did they let them in to the country?

So no-one stood up to two frenzied knife wielding maniacs because an ex-US Marine choked an unarmed homeless man to death in America and had to answer in court. And him going to court for killing someone and facing negligent homicide charges is the fault of "lefties"? Nothing to do with the criminal justice system and due process then, just lefties. And people should be allowed to kill unarmed black people and not have to answer questions. Because of "lefties". And he got off, so what's the problem - even though his superior who trained him in the chokehold said he did not apply it correctly as you are taught to release it when the person is unconscious, not continue it until they are dead.

You should not comment on topics that you do not understand.

You are upset the perps are not right wing white guys.

Did they release the choir boy pics yet? 

 

I can't help feeling we're not getting the full truth yet. The authorities have form on this. Let's see what transpires.

 

 

I am lazy to read the replies

 

Was it a DOCTOR or ENGINEER?

Yes the left were desperately hoping it was a white Brit like the Liverpool car ramming. Preferably bald with a reddish complexion and tattoos.

 

The fact we didn't know his name, date of birth, favourite film and what he had for breakfast within 10 minutes of his arrest told everyone it was not.

They haven't decided yet. The Police's top brass will vote on it tomorrow. 😄

 

It does remind me of another recent high publicity case where they claimed it was most definitely not a terrorist incident despite the knife wielding maniac having Rycin and an Al Qaeda manual in his bedroom.

Indeed, the current information void is painfully reminiscent of the cautious, almost paralysed “walking-on-eggshells” approach adopted during the release of details following the horrific Southport killings on 29 July 2024.

 

This deliberate silence creates the perfect breeding ground for rumour and conjecture. It’s not only counterproductive but insulting to the public’s intelligence. Given the current social and political temperature, one can’t help but suspect that authorities might be apprehensive about a potential public backlash if it turns out the perpetrators are from a migrant background.

 

Yet this very hesitation only fuels resentment and division. Officials should be moving swiftly to close the speculation gap by sharing clear, factual information - details they almost certainly possess by now.

 

Transparency doesn’t inflame tensions; secrecy does - this is already 'clumsy' - haven't these lessons not already been learned ?

Well said. It is pathetic. Resentment is growing by the day there. Bring back hanging and enact mass deportations. It’ll likely kick off at some point in the near future. Apathy can only go on for so long. That pathetic excuse of PM—is it a man?—will doubtless give a feeble attempt at empathy and understanding. 

The one man still in custody is British and was yelling about not letting the devil win. So that negates every one of the ignorant, uninformed, conspiracy comments above. And such ignorant, uninformed conspiracy comments that have happened in the UK in the past - most notably about the British-born murderer in Southport which led to riots - is why the authorities now make a point of describing the attacker. To shut up and make look stupid the ignorant, uninformed conspiracy commentators.

One of whom was innocent. Why am Imnot surprised you didn't bother to read that.

 

Very racist of you.

 

So the Black British man of Caribbean descent is now innocent. That just leaves the Black British man of unknown descent. I wonder what his religion is? 🤔

I understand it perfectly well thank you.

What did I get wrong? I just stated the facts of what happened.

And the irony of you telling someone not to post on topics they don't understand - that would make the forum a very small place for you.

Not Rambo at all, ask anyone who is a trainer. I should have added in the correct scenario.

 

You do know the basics right? Like which side to move to when facing an armed assailant, etc. How to move when the machete is swinging?

 

We dont consider it "Rambo" we consider it training.

It's tough for them. They were praying it was a white guy so they could claim he was a Reform/Tommy Robinson fan like they did with Kirk's killer and the whole "he's MAGA" line. 

 

Now that's out the window they will try the "he's as British as you and me" line. Or possibly the "White middle aged men talking about this are the real problem here" line. Maybe he was incensed by a Union flag at the train station?

 

I'm waiting for Gary Neville's and James O'Brien's take on all this. Let's see how it's spun into a "far right" issue this time. 😄

I got to say Kier Starmer has got to be the wierdest looking creature ever to lead a government. I know Trump looks like a clown, but he's old, I expect things like bad combovers in colours not found in nature but Trump looked human when he was Starmers age. Starmer looks like...almost like a moving mushroom.

Moving mushroom or not (🤣) he's been a huge disappointment and needs to get his act together.
