The people on this forum who routinely throw accusations of racism around should read this article. This is what happens when society is cowed by the fear of such accusations

Very poignant article Mrgybe. Where is the outrage? Where are the feminists? These throwbacks to the middle ages have brought their perversions to the west, yet liberals are worried about a handful of impotent rednecks.

A black police officer shot a young unarmed white youth last week in Utah. Almost identical circumstance as the Brown case. Except the white kid hadn't just robbed a store. Kid is dead, but no Sharpton, no Jesse Jackson. Only chirping crickets.

Meanwhile the liberals wring their hands over some fictional white suprematist with no teeth and zero power.

Almost identical circumstances: The Salt Lake City Police were responding to a call about a man waving a gun in the air, and the Ferguson policeman was admonishing teens for jaywalking. Almost identical.

Maybe you just do not get it. When your relatives have been kept poor for 400 or so years against their will and to date you do not have equality.... You just do not get it.

Just as you hate to have to pay $1.00 in tax and you will fight overthrow a country just so you do not have to pay extra on a tea without representation. Well all people of color want is to be treated in every way equal, not superior and have whites as slaves. After all the prosperity of America was made off not paying them a penny and subseveant wages after slavery. That is the without much doubt the main reason for americas rise in economic success through most of its life.

Perhaps a stretch to argue that American's concerned about violence to African American men are responsible for a culture of silence in a city in England. Might there be some differences? As in the white kid waving a gun?

what the heck are you talking about... it is more of an example how police do not protect the poor... just as we have many police that have contempt for blacks in the USA here we have an example of police willing to look the other way because of their contempt for the lower class.

Quote:

The living dolls of Rotherham were bent and twisted to their masters’ will. There was no escape. As the sterling Professor Jay observes, South Yorkshire Police “regarded many child victims with contempt”.


One 11-year-old known as Child H told police that she and another girl had been sexually assaulted by grown men. Nothing was done. When she was 12, Child H was found in the back of a taxi with a man who had indecent pictures of her on his phone. Despite the full co-operation of her father, who insisted his daughter was being abused, police failed to act. Four months later, Child H was found in a house alone with a group of Pakistani men. What did the police do? They arrested the child for being drunk and disorderly and ignored her abusers.

I find it more than a bit humorous to read the comments from what I must assume are affluent male caucasians declaring that there is no racism, or very little, in the U.S.

Walk a mile in the shoes of those of a different ethnicity and perhaps you would change your perspective.

Empathy is lacking in some who post here.

CORRECTION. (In case anybody takes Baja Deans half truth dismissal of what has happened over here seriously.)

Our police are petrified of charges of racism and Islamaphobia, especially in towns with large Pakistani Muslim communities. To avoid such they dismissed and discredited complaints and charges made by young white 'lower class' troublesome girls and their families, and who were the prey.

Everybody is at fault here, police, social services, councillers, and MP's, all of whom worshiped at the shrine of multi cultural diversity, and were afraid to speak the truth.

But the PRIME offenders are the Pakistani Muslim men whose culture sees 'lower class' and poor young white girls as WHITE TRASH (their terminology) fit only to serve their sexual desires. Naturally, the Pakistani community is in denial, and claim to know nothing of what has been going on under their own noses.)

If what I say is in anger, then it IS. It is what most (including non Pakistani ethnic groups) feel. The revulsion is widespresd, and there will clearly be action!

Yes GT, but sadly, you will be called a hater or racist for writing the truth.

It is not our fault that multiple cultures of laziness or hate are thriving around the globe. It is not my fault that Mac's ancestors owned slaves. MINE DID NOT. It is not my fault that some redneck hangs the rebel flag in Louisiana. I DON'T.

I'd like the lefty's on this site to name 1 racist who has any power. Just 1 please. I'd be happy to hear about just 1 racist banker, mortgage officer, school teacher, or politician who is a racist.
