I'm sure they're blaming the whiskey in between their country rock segments. What does piss me off is the fact that all the newspapers are labeling the whole incident like this. "White man drives into Muslim worshipers". Why can't they just write "Scum drives into innocent people for his racist beliefs". The labeling is just making things worse. The individuals who were driven over were people, that's what we should identify them as. Not everyone has to be put in a box. He maimed innocent people who were also Muslims, but at the end of the day we are all people. Edited June 19, 2017 by magnkarl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it reminds me of those old 80's workout VHS theme tunes they used to do on TV-shop when I was over in Florida. At least they could use something good..

Popular Post HanoiVillan Posted June 19, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2017 2 hours ago, magnkarl said: No, BLM are a peaceful organisation. Meeting with PFLP clearly shows good intent. How about the stuff below? Chanting that they want to kill police is totally fine. The whole organisation that started out in a very peaceful and pragmatic proper protest is now turning more and more radical. I don't know how people can support this when there are extremely peaceful alternatives out there that have been doing a great job with racism since the 60's. The Race Equality Foundation is one of them. No one's ever going to achieve anything by being violent. Look at what happened to the Black Panthers, no one under 30 barely even knows who they are. In any case, I don't want to pollute this thread anymore with this sort of stuff, it's not about BLM or BP's. So, to recap: first claim was that Black Lives Matter (amongst other groups) 'kill innocent, well meaning, normal people', then it turned out that they haven't actually killed anyone, but one person who did kill some people claimed to be inspired by the message (this is not the same thing). The second claim was that Black Lives Matter was engaged in 'terrorism', but under closer scrutiny it isn't actually Black Lives Matter, it's some other group called 'Dream Defenders', and they aren't actually engaged in terrorism, but something more like offensive chanting and saying objectionable things to journalists. On one thing I do agree though, we should leave this here. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where was he radicalized? And so on, and so on. All believing that it's incredibly original. The frequency this has been put today is possibly less people trying to be witty (only to realise someone has beaten them to it), and more the fact that everytime we get a terrorist incident the go-to reaction is to blame the muslim community for not doing more. That happens not only on Twitter but in many places including VT, and frankly my good man it is boulderdash and it needs lampooning, repeatedly, to the point it's lack of originality causes someone to get annoyed - because it's a 100% BS reaction in the first place.

I really hope he is not found to be mental and gets the full force of the law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magnkarl Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Seeing Piers Morgan absolutely flatten Tommy Robinson this morning made me realise how stupid EDL and their supporters are. Why anyone subscribes to the absolute bs they spout is beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Telegraph has gone with the 'nutter flipped' and the The Independent have gone with ' Number of far-right watch list soars by 30% ' (an actual increase of 20 people).
