Anyone from England? Why are riots in there?
Discussion
A 17 year old murdered some little girls. The riots are of an anti-immigration and anti-muslim nature, stirred up by nationalist right wing groups.
Wow
It's interesting how easily justified outrage can be dismissed by labeling the outraged people something undesirable.
Did you lable the George Floyd rioters sililarly?
According to the BBC they were right wing nationalists who went to protest in front of a mosque because of misinformation on social media that the stabber was a Muslim.
Do you have a different information set?
According to arrest records all were local people. No nationalist affiliations.
They gathered at the mosque because someone with a knife of arab apperance was arrested approching the vigil.
Never said they were wrong or unjustified, just that it occurred. The EDL is a right wing nationalist group, just as antifa is a left wing socialist group. Groups like this use events that upset people to agitate the masses. The kid murdered little girls, I would be angry too.
The EDL hasnt existed for over 10 years. This all started because ordinary people have finally snapped.
Yes, im sure some hijacking has gone on.
But dont underestimate how pissed people are in general.
Especially over the obiovous bias in policing day to day.
It says more about you that you think right wing nationalism is undesirable than anything
same sad story over and over again. we the people never learned from our past and we keep on going in circles.
Finally got some sun, back to normal as soon as it rains again!
