I’m personally more disgusted by the actions that have taken place in protest of a serial criminal dying. The cenotaph has been vandalised and defaced in protest at a drugged up serial criminal that had previously done armed robbery on a white pregnant woman. **** him.

Read a stat today that 3.5% of the black male community are responsible for 50% of all murders in the USA. That’s ****ing mental if true.

Yup, it's about class as well as race. And black people tend to be poorer overall too.

Double whammy.

This is a laborious read.

It's a point of view. I don't support it personally.

What do you think though, about the rising amount of clips featuring violent police tactics we are seeing, since this all began?

Police beating people mercilessly, ignoring people they've injured as they lie bleeding, using tear gas and baton rounds against their own people, most of whom seem to be peaceful?

If you're ok with it fine, but what brutal world will we end up living in, if the police can do these things with regular impunity?

You watching this show on BBC2 about Eric Clapton? Just heard an interview he gave on US radio, talking about music and race in America.

Pretty depressing really, absolutely nothing has changed since 1967.

I think that the same tactics have been used to kill white scum as well. Difference if we didn’t desecrate war memorials and kill and rob small business because of it. I don’t condone any of it. If you were an American cop would you have let him go knowing he would say anything to stop what was going on? I’m no racist but I think the whole premise has been hijacked by scum and now ridiculous brits have jumped on the bandwagon and vandalised the cenotaph. I can’t forgive that. So **** em.
