Apparently the person who tackled the attacker and got the knife off him was also an immigrant and I'd imagine some of the people (drs/nurses) treating the victims will also be immigrants. The attacker is clearly a sick, evil bastard. I am not sure what his ethnicity has got to do with it though but I guess those anti immigrant were always going to latch onto it and stoke the fire, literally it seems.

See in my opinion the person spreading false information like this on social media to influence hatred and racism should be prosecuted. No place for this kind of shit Where he came from it doesnt matter its the evil **** who carried it out 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 The attacker was an Algerian who moved to Ireland 20 years ago and is an Irish citizen. The far right jumped on it once they heard the Algerian bit and tried to whip up a mob. The rent a mob crowd who showed up are just the usual feral children who turn up at any protest because there's a good chance for some violence, looting, attacking police and because they have nothing else to do except hang around and do/sell drugs. They don't have any political views, don't vote and don't participate in society. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, and now at least we know when the inner city scrotes talk about "Ireland for the Irish" they're really saying "the contents of Foot Locker for the Irish".

lapal_fan Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 They were burning police cars as well Conor McGregor is stoking the fire too. Social Media is an absolute pit of despair, so I'm coming off it for a few days (except for Villa reasons ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Social media is immune to all of this so it becomes the cesspit that we see today.

In fairness the current UK government is spouting, and stoking, a lot of the bile on social media. They aren't going to be in any rush to regulate it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desperately trying to gaslight the nation into thinking 40,000 people arriving per year on small boats are an invasion and the reason the country is going down the toilet. 40,000 out of 1.2m arrived by small boat, you don’t hear about the other 1.16m ruining our country do you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 16yo stabbed to death on Primrose Hill. a 16yo has been arrested. Happy New Year London https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-67856252 Quote A 16-year-old boy stabbed to death in north London on New Year's Eve has been named by police as Harry Pitman. Officers were called to the stabbing in Primrose Hill, Camden, at about 23:40 GMT on Sunday. Metropolitan Police said first aid was given to Mr Pitman but he was pronounced dead shortly before midnight. A 16-year-old boy was arrested at the scene on suspicion of murder and taken into custody. ----------------- Another local described the incident as "tragic but inevitable" and said he had made "hundreds" of complaints to police about anti-social behaviour in the park. He said it had become a "party hotspot" with drugs and alcohol since the pandemic. Gina Germano, a mother of two teenage boys who were at Primrose Hill at the time of the attack, said she had "warned" her sons about gangs there, explaining it had become "rough" since 2020. Shame to see a nice part of London become rough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Mandatory jail sentence for carrying a knife, has to be a starting point, obvious exceptions for non-lethal knives (pen knives) and carpenters carrying tools etc. For anyone else, there’s just no justification for leaving your house with a knife in your pocket, I’ve never once even considered doing so.

Bizarrely her best mate was round yesterday evening. She still lives in Wolverhampton and she was saying you heard about that lad who got stabbed in West Park in the afternoon. we commented oh my God how terrible and then you get the news that it’s actually somebody you know and know well. I want to contact his dad to offer my support. I really don’t know what to say. My lad has took it really hard as well as you would imagine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was bad then, but I think it’s got a lot worse since. It makes you want to wrap your own kids in cotton wall and never let them out the house.

Parents worst nightmare, heartbreaking So sorry to hear that mate. Once things have settled down, the Dad could benefit from channelling his grief into something positive. The Daniel Baird Foundation would be a good start. They focus on putting bleed control kits where they might be most needed. Nothing will make up for the loss of his son, but your friend will feel a bit better if he can save the life of somebody else's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
