Stephen Lawrence Day..
Re: Stephen Lawrence Day..
At what age does middle age start?
The thing that amazes me most are those that label Daily Mail readers in a disparaging way actually read it. Janet Street Porter on HIGNFY quoted an article she had read.
I have nothing against a Stephen Lawrence day, but what you never hear from the people who have vocally shouted for one, are calls for days to reflect on white victims of rascism. I would like them to shout out for days for those lives lost through institutionalised failure such as Baby P, the Girls who lives have been wrecked through grooming etc.

I've made a note in my 2019 diary regarding Stephen Lawrence Day: can any one tell me what I'm supposed to do when it comes round?

Re: Stephen Lawrence Day..
Troll on a pencil Ad Hominem sh*te as usual, from UTB. I think Question Time is about your level, where opposition is thought of, as good TV because they haven't the creativity to actually say something interesting.
Going back to the Stephen Pinker video he points out that it's considered racist to say that African Americans are statistically 7 times more likely to commit violent crime than anyone else. Is that a racist statistic, UTB?

Has to be a official " The Rotherham 2000 day " surely?
And I'm not joking.
Re: Stephen Lawrence Day..
Society gets on with what it does regardless of any official days for this and that. If there were a day for every injustice, EVERY DAY would be an injustice day. It's cultural self-flagellation.

Presumably pretty much the same as happens on Holocaust Memorial Day.Vino blanco wrote:I've made a note in my 2019 diary regarding Stephen Lawrence Day: can any one tell me what I'm supposed to do when it comes round?
Those who want to mark it will reflect on what happened and resolve that it must never happen again, whilst the rest will just ignore it.
I can't imagine why anyone thinks it's a bad idea. An annual reminder of this awful case and the fallout from it can't be a bad thing, and no one is forced to do anything to mark it.

I can't imagine Vino Blanco saying 'I resolve that there will be no more racist murders of black people' and society-at-large agreeing 'Oh well Vino Blanco has resolved there shall be no more racist murders, so that's it then.'

Take a pause to think of everything his parents and what many other minorities went through in that period of time.
Remind yourself that you’re part of the solution and not part of the problem.
Be thankful that as a society (largely) we’ve moved on from the attitudes that were once universally accepted, even in some of our most trusted institutions.

Re: Stephen Lawrence Day..
Indeed - and why not ? I assume the Ukrainians remember this atrocity in some way(s). They'll certainly not have forgotten it, that's for sure.
And, in fairness, I suppose the racist idiots on this board could get together on a special day to celebrate their views and ideals.
Oh, wait...

If you want to mark it alongside the Ukrainians it takes place every year on the fourth Saturday of November. On this day people in Ukraine and all over the world are invited to light candles in memory of those killed during the genocide of 1932-33.

Re: Stephen Lawrence Day..
I cant help feeling that this is like some sort of national apology day. As neither a racist nor a murderer I really don't feel the need. Yes it was obviously terrible for the Lawrence family but lessons have been learnt, lets move on.
Re: Stephen Lawrence Day..
Sorry to read you've failed the comprehension. If you'd like to quote any perceived incoherence I'll go through it with you slowly. I'm generous that way, with folk who need remedial help.

I seem to remember you raving on about Antoine Griezmann for weeks in countless incoherent ramblings and then claiming you were a Preston fan for some reason.
It seems you can magically turn it off when someone calls you out though, as above.
Re: Stephen Lawrence Day..
After scoring for Athletico Madrid in the Europa League, Anton Griezeman stuck his ass in a camera at ground level and bumped his ass up and down in the face of 400 million or so viewers, including children. What right has he to offend even one person in this manner and what right had the TV company to broadcast it? Personally I think he should receive a permanent ban from football.
There's nothing incoherent about that statement, nor in any of my posts on this thread.
I never claimed I was a fan of Preston, I said that they are 'The Lamb and Flag' of English football, regarding regarding their badge.
You're right, I joke a bit, I use a bit of poetry but sensible and serious when the chips are down, as in post100 on this thread.
I noticed you chose to be political and to direct the comment back to a personal attack rather than grapple with any intellectual content posted by me on this thread, thus avoiding the embarrassment of saying nothing in particular.

Re: Stephen Lawrence Day..
Given that you’re the only person in the whole world who’s even mentioned the Griezmann celebration, I’d say you’re spouting an absolute load of rubbish. If it was offensive in anyway, it would of made the news and he probably would’ve been banned.Pstotto wrote:After scoring for Athletico Madrid in the Europa League, Anton Griezeman stuck his ass in a camera at ground level and bumped his ass up and down in the face of 400 million or so viewers, including children.

People have consistently told you to seek professional help on various threads that you’ve posted on, if that’s not a sign of incorhence, I don’t know what is.
I’m not able to form an argument for or against the things you have said on this thread as I still have no idea what you’re talking about. You said you’re happy to clear up anything that I believed to be incoherent, but then didn’t.
But, very interesting that you seem perfectly capable of forming proper sentences when prompted.
Careful, people will think you’re an attention seeker.
Re: Stephen Lawrence Day..
I'm flabbergasted that the Griezmann celebration wasn't picked up by others and mentioned, it was that bad. I've now registered with UEFA to see if I can track down the incident to show you. I bet he was paid to 'sh*t on the bstards below below' by UEFA as a sort of hippopotomi IN YER FACE TV activity.
Every few seconds on a Europa League match (MOTD too) they cut in with a CGI symbol to mind-control the viewer as they watch. It's actually quite spooky when they cut into the football to show a black space with their cup in it. EURO 2016 was almost unwatchable because of their CGI symbol interference. I managed to get the following photograph after much patience and pressing the pause button on youtube, to show subliminal mind control activity is going on:
I've looked on youtube but couldn't find the Greizman incident, so I'll now have a look on the UEFA site. Incidentally when they asked which European club do you support when I registered, Burnley was not an option. Even Burnley are unnoticed, never mind Griezmann.
ALSO under the radar, KAZAKHSTAN in the UEFA cohort, when it's on the same longitude as Afghanistan. Baku in Europe, too????? It was part of Iran before the Soviet annexation in the 20C.
There is a great deal of using football for political persuasion, if you're blind to it, that's not my fault.
edit. I've had look and there's no goal celebrations in the clips. I don't want to see any such thing ever again in any case and I won't search further.
