That’s Sir Absolute State to you.The absolute state of that muppet
Well once you join a gang you know what you’re signing up forHmmm i think this Nottingham attack is different to the much more frequent stabbings we hear about in sink estates (your words). They were carried out by someone who seemed to be out to kill/injure as many people as he could and anti terror police were involved from the start. Whether it had been carried out on teenagers from an ethnic minority on a sink estate or aristocratic toffs in Mayfair, I think the outrage and sadness from the public would be exactly the same. But I do agree that we hear about stabbings/gangs/drugs and it doesnt have the same shocking effect on us that it used to have when it first started simply because it is so frequent and sadly a lot of people assume it's always rival gangs going after each other.
Edit: Thinking about this while making a cuppa, i think people assume that "other" stabbings/murders are by people known to each other (eg gangs) whereas murders like this as completely random which is much more frightening.
He's not right is he.The absolute state of that muppet
The way some people are recruited into gangs is absolutely terrifying though, I had no idea.Well once you join a gang you know what you’re signing up for
Yes, stabbing someone is seen as proving yourself in many gangs, like an initiation.The way some people are recruited into gangs is absolutely terrifying though, I had no idea.
Not everyone from an ethnic minority who's stabbed is in a gang. Which is part of the problem in and of itself. @Ndrangheta simply asked if a similar crime against someone from an ethnic minority would get a similar reaction/coverage... no mention of gang activity, but somehow that's where the conversation has pivoted.Well once you join a gang you know what you’re signing up for
Who said they were? I don’t see the comparison in the Nottingham KiLLINGS to gangs in the slightest.Not everyone from an ethnic minority who's stabbed is in a gang. Which is part of the problem in and of itself. @Ndrangheta simply asked if a similar crime against someone from an ethnic minority would get a similar reaction/coverage... no mention of gang activity, but somehow that's where the conversation has pivoted.
And it's also part of why such crimes get less attention, because of these assumptions.
I would like to see all crimes get equal coverage and public outrage, regardless of who the victim or attacker is.
At the risk of sounding like a bleeding heart, liberal leftie - isn’t that absolutely bloody tragic? That they have so little to aspire to, so little hope of doing anything with themselves that they think their own lives - and everyone around them, are that cheap?Yes, stabbing someone is seen as proving yourself in many gangs, like an initiation.
Life is cheap with these scumbags.

Interesting.Do you not think this crime is deserving of the coverage because a blackman carried it out??
I don’t understand what point you were making to begin with? It wouldn’t be realistic to hold vigils for every murder victim regardless of race, you quoted me by implying I assumed racial minorities = gangs ,what is it you want me to say??So you read me type this:

aye well he is right about that! Boris has done so much damage!
I know you're not supposed to judge a person by their looks, but Mr Fab makes it very difficult.aye well he is right about that! Boris has done so much damage!
He looks like something off of Spitting Image.I know you're not supposed to judge a person by their looks, but Mr Fab makes it very difficult.
Do you remember coverage from a few months back of that girl who was on the phone to her grandmother, who was randomly stabbed in Brixton? And the man went on to tab other people, but thankfully they survived?Not everyone from an ethnic minority who's stabbed is in a gang.

It was on social media so the part about him harming other people may or may not be factually correct, but the fact that this got no coverage is exactly what people are getting at. Random attack, ‘good’ victim, just in a place where people expect it so little to no coverage.Woman stabbed to death was 'on phone to gran after buying gift for mum'
A woman who was stabbed to death in Brixton, South London on Monday had been on her way home with a birthday gift when she was attacked, a shocked neighbour has saidwww.mirror.co.uk
Just looked this up, not sure I remember it actually. The Mirror doesnt show a picture of her or a name, but the Evening Standard names her and shows a picture. Desperately sad. It doesnt say the guy went on to stab other people.
Did you hear about the 21yr old was cut into tiny pieces in NI and put into dustbins? Her killer escaped from a secure mental facility numerous times, even used the ECHR as a loophole to freedom the day he killed her.It was on social media so the part about him harming other people may or may not be factually correct, but the fact that this got no coverage is exactly what people are getting at.

Realistically if we covered all the crimes that have ever happened we’d have very little time for other news. A lot of the incidents which are covered are often covered because they’re particularly shocking or unusual, but the narrative around the victims does show the wider social viewsIt was on social media so the part about him harming other people may or may not be factually correct, but the fact that this got no coverage is exactly what people are getting at.
