algy Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 The banner towed behind a light aircraft over the Manchester City Etihad stadium reading "WHITE LIVES MATTER" was this the right or wrong thing to do?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asperity Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Well all the usual suspects with their faux outrage (I heard one news report calling it an anti-BLM banner, which may or may not be true) made sure that it went worldwide. If everyone had either ignored it or laughed at it there wouldn't have been any interest. But it suits the likes of BLM to have perceived enemies that they can point to and shout "racist" at. I was called a racist on a forum yesterday because I didn't go along with the groupthink, that's how bad things are getting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davy51 Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Surely.it would be racist to prosecute whoever organised the banner. White lives matter too ,would probably been better wording on the banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Observer II Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 The Police have stated that no crime has been committed - end of. If action is taken against those who object to this woke nonsense, it makes us little better than a Nazi or Stalinist society - time we all opposed this juvenile anarchist nonsense. 😠 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Does not every life matter to someone, even if it is just the person living it.....🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asperity Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Not if the person living it doesn't agree with the mob! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted June 25, 2020 Report Share Posted June 25, 2020 So just a matter of numbers then. If enough people say it is right then it is right even if it is wrong legally and morally.

Stallard12 Posted June 25, 2020 Report Share Posted June 25, 2020 Latest news headline this morning. From the apparent leader of Black Lives Matters " We are going to keep on burning everything down until we get what we want." Also " We are about to get our own armed 'peace officers'". Someone has to fight back soon or it's going to become too big to fail. Stupid virtue signallers like the FA, Democrats, Liberals, Nike and others providing misguided moral and financial support will soon find out how much protection it will buy them - none. The mob is now tearing down statues of black abolitionists! That shows how their professed ideals are total bullshit. It's a straight forward riot by anarchists. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Observer II Posted June 25, 2020 Report Share Posted June 25, 2020 The problem is Tex; that most organs of the State that we rely on for law and order, have been penetrated by these PC liberals. cultivated by our woke universities; hence the nonsense of cops "giving the knee" and Seattle Precincts being abandoned. This means that ultimately we will get anarchy, in which folk will have to choose which tribe they support. The Burnley guy who hired the WLM stunt has been sacked from his job; just hope he sues his employers. 😠 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stallard12 Posted June 25, 2020 Report Share Posted June 25, 2020 I witness that everyday Obs, the question is, are we witnessing the end of democracy? Will they succeed ? If Trump or any other government leader reacts with normal riot solutions, all it would achieve is to cost him and others an election. The only solution that I can see, is to declare martial law, suspend government function, including elections and turn the army loose. I believe it's that serious.

algy Posted June 25, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2020 Today in the Mail Online - The University of Cambridge has spoken out in support of one of its lecturers who was hit by a wave of abusive messages and death threats for tweeting 'White Lives Don't Matter'. Dr Priyamvada Gopal, 51, who teaches in the Faculty of English at Churchill College, took to the social media platform on Tuesday evening to write: 'I'll say it again. White Lives Don't Matter. As white lives.' However the controversial message, which has since been deleted by Twitter, was met with a barrage of outrage, with many people responding both publicly and privately with death threats and racist abuse.

asperity Posted June 25, 2020 Report Share Posted June 25, 2020 Why would a, presumably, well educated academic say something so stupid on social media? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stallard12 Posted June 25, 2020 Report Share Posted June 25, 2020 There's a difference between intelligence and common sense Asp. They actually believe the garbage they teach. The only debates they ever have, is with the rest of the insular academics in the teachers lounge, all blinded by their own brilliance. They're so deluded, they have no idea how it is in the real world. By the way the BLM mob destroyed the statue of Gandhi ! I wonder what he thinks about that?

Observer II Posted June 26, 2020 Report Share Posted June 26, 2020 So, based on the example of the Burnley guy, she should now be sacked. These BLM people must have hard lives, struggling with that huge chip on their shoulder. 😠 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davy51 Posted June 26, 2020 Report Share Posted June 26, 2020 I would really like to know what relevance a bloke's opinions have to him losing his job. Providing he didn't make this banner in work ,what has it got to do with his employer ? The UK is supposed to be a champion of free speech, but now the greater good is being preached at by various militant minority factions.

asperity Posted June 26, 2020 Report Share Posted June 26, 2020 Free speech is dead in this country Davy. Rebecca Wrong Daily has found that out as well, but I doubt that she would ever admit to being part of the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted June 27, 2020 Report Share Posted June 27, 2020 There will always be people who will be offended by whatever opinion you may hold or whatever words you may utter even a "good morning", especially these days people seem to go out of their way and to extreme lengths to find things to be offended by even if it is the fact that the cannot find anything offensive about a thing. it is called faddism.
