Now that is actually a constructive point. One I agree with.
So you miss one joke completely and take another seriously...

The protests in the UK were about the disproportionate treatment of black people in the UK by the police rather than the unlawful killing that is seen in the US.

Whether their is racism in the UK police is another argument altogether as all I was highlighting is why society is more like to protest against the perceived wrongful actions of the police than they are against the actions of criminals.

Again I cant believe an adult cannot understand the difference between protests against police actions and reactions to crimes by criminals
Ah, so that clears it up then? You don’t mean killing of innocent people by UK police. You are now just implying that our police forces are inherently racist when you mention disproportionate treatment of black people?

At least Owen Jones has his priorities right, even if 99% of right minded people don't

Nope youre still completely missing the point I was making but nevermind I dont think I can dumb it down anymore
No I am not missing your point. I get completely that you cannot compare the actions of criminals with the actions of police (in the USA) as the police are there to uphold the law and protect people. I am just slightly concerned that you are implying our UK police are racist. And no please don’t dumb it down anymore or try to belittle me with your obvious superior intelligence and knowledge.

Not much right with it is there?

When people are mourning the death of a police office, that bellend decides to go on the attack over an image.

Nope I wasnt implying our UK police are racist and I even made emphasised that is a different argument altogether.

All I did was call out the stupidity of comparing the actions of criminals with the actions of police (which you obviously understand but the person I made the original comment to did not) in relation to how a society responds

Disproportionate treatment of black people in the UK by the police? That’s not implying racism?

Do you need time to think about this one? I would have thought it straightforward.

Erm, I was referring to Police tweet not his response to it.

White Police officer shot dead in Britain by black gun man. Brace yourself for the protests, demonstrations, marches, celebrities jumping on the bandwagon, professional footballers making a stand before each game. Police lives matter.

Surely that's what is going to happen isn't it?


Please tell me what you think this poster was referring to with the comments " Brace yourself for the protests, demonstrations, marches, celebrities jumping on the bandwagon, professional footballers making a stand before each game" What is the suggestion that these protests, demos and bandwagon jumping was for?
