Yes. George Floyd is the only unarmed black man to have suffered such a fate isn’t he? It’s only happened the once.

It has EVERYTHING to do with us in the UK, and everything to do with us as human beings.

Because it help ignite a narrative where black people the world over began telling their stories about institutional racism. And how that doesn’t just manifest itself in policeman – and citizens – killing black people in the US, but in how black people are still treated by large sections of society.

That this message is still not getting through – as exemplified on this thread – is exactly why sports teams are still taking the knee. And why I hope it continues.

f***ing brilliant post. Absolutely brilliant.

His black father fucked off and his white mother put him up for adoption. I'm sure there's no weird psychological baggage driving what he did.

Thick as fuck. And racist.

tearing down statues of someone who lived 400 years ago

Well, I don't know what's happening over there, but since you mentioned Rochester, I assume you're referring to statues being taken down here.

Let me offer you a hypothetical:

Germany, at the end of the WWII, is allowed to quietly surrender with the understanding that Hitler and his like mustn't attempt an overthrow of government in the future. Bavaria remains a pro-Nazi stronghold, but the north is firmly opposed to Naziism. As the years go by, the horrors of Naziism are whitewashed out of Bavarian schools and official histories and the Nazi flag starts cropping up on regional flags, front porches, etc. Statues are erected to honor Nazi generals and Hitler himself. This is all explained away as 'Bavarian Pride'.

I hope you see where I'm going with this.

As far as I'm concerned, if a statue has been set up to honor a slaver, a Confederate general, etc., especially if it was erected in the latter half of the 1800s or early 1900s as a way to publicly honor the white hegemonies in the Southern US, then they can all come down now. And yes, it IS about erasing history -- a history of white on black genocide. A history of horrific, citywide massacres in the South of blacks. A history of unpunished lynchings. Fuck anyone who say this is about 'Southern Pride'.

He’s a f***ing idiot. Let’s not forget that he suggested that “the left” were deliberately spreading Covid in care homes to undermine boris

No. It wasn’t. It’s been around far longer for one thing

Yes your correct, but they did use it to get back into the headlines, until they couldn't hide his violent past any longer, they then had to change the narrative.

He first did it in September 2016, when Obama was still president. Try again.

The racists are now the snowflakes aren’t they? Permanently outraged over the smallest of things.

Aye. The generation that loved to mock millennials for being snowflakes is now in a state of hysteria because of:

* People kneeling while the national anthem plays
* People kneeling for a second before a football match
* Having to wear a mask occasionally
* Hearing the words 'Black Lives Matter'

They'll project all kinds of desperate associated meanings onto those actions because deep down they know that these things are entirely reasonable, and anyone moaning about them is an absolute wet shite of a human being.

Poorly articulated sorry. no one thinks that a rise in black lives matter will lead to a Marxist society.

And I’ve already acknowledged there are whack jobs.

We have a prime minister that comes out with racist bollocks also.

They are the founders, loads of people have exposed all the nonsense man :lol: :lol: Just like the Covid hysteriasts, the Climate alarmists it's all political.

The idea of kneeling was to resemble how the serial criminal had died, which started after he died.

ah, so he committed some crimes in the past, served his time and seemed one of the few people who actually reformed. that'll make it ok he died as a result of a police officer's actions then.

honestly?
