Off Topic The Politics Thread

[ELLERS]

No names mentioned but there are one or two on here who sound like they would be in their comfort zone amongst the far right racists today.

Stop talking utter rubbish. People are always racist when they have a different opinion.

Are they? I will take your word for that

Interesting

Their message is getting lost. Can you not see it. Turn on the news and what are they talking about... Violence.

Staines, this is maybe irrelevant but I am half Trinidadian, my dad joined the RAF back in 1970. No real point here, just I am mixed race and you mentioned your wife a Trini?

Well I’m an adopted Trini mate .
My father in law is a Trini who came over in the 60’s.
The kids love the fact they have mixed heritage and can play for Trinidad in a sport some day .
Dennis, my father in law is an amazing man....you couldn’t meet anyone nicer. I love him like he was my own dad

I think their message is even stronger and more poignant after todays scenes

 

[bobmid]

I'm sure some would also be in their comfort zone amongst the BLM movement also

Okay then we will have to agree to disagree Bob.

 

[Staines R's]

I think Staines said his mrs was a Trani

LOL !!!

Mate that made me giggle

No worries Ellers. Each to their own mate

Here's a good question.
If you HAD to choose a side to march along with today, would you choose the BLM or the far right? To make the choice easier, let's remove all violence from both sides.

Before I get accused of posting one sides videos it because they are the ones on Twitter.

Fair play to the girl who steps in front of the mob and tries to get them to stop - actions like hers are more powerful than any of this ****ing fighting

Mate, that's a heavily loaded question for a Saturday night!

It's quite simple really steels. I would choose the BLM every time. I might not have done 20 years ago but its who I am today.

As you know I would - but who the **** would admit to the other option without looking like a total ****

Say no more mate. It's the exact reason why the BLM exists.

Are we saying no violence whatsoever....?

Blm or far right. No violence

 

[Staines R's]

BLM then for me.....I would of been marching with Dr King every day of the week

 

[bobmid]

I wonder if anyone else would/dare answer the question.

 

[Staines R's]

It’s a bit like asking which I my kids I’d save if there was a fire and I could only save one.....though I always pick my favourite twin when I get asked that one....easy choice
