People Are Quick to Hijack A Protest

[Clive Evans]

Just see on the news the shocking violence in Whitehall. The people protesting about a death in the USA. Turn on the UK police. One police horse bolted, a bike thrust in to the side of a police horse. When Trump sees this, he will love it. What the Hell do these people think they are doing.

Racism exists worldwide but the George Floyd thing is specifically a failing of US policing. This is utter madness.

Entirely agree here.

So no black people have died in police custody here?

Twenty seven officers injured by the bellends out yesterday risking more black lives by spreading COVID

f*** them

[Max B Gold]

I suspect they may be angry about something.

The violence by the few and the non-social distancing by more than a few has the effect of turning many people against the protest. The result is that the cause gets diluted, the opposite of what the protestors were trying to achieve, but was sadly entirely predictable.

Black lives matter – of course they do, and the overwhelming majority of the population already agree. My simple instinct is that all lives matter equally, and that’s the education message which must continue to be given. I won’t support any group that focuses on colour for I see it as divisive, with looming overtones of an Orwellian society where some people are seen as more equal than others. And on that note I can’t help but wonder what the reaction would be if someone organised a ‘White Lives Matter’ march.

Utter nonsense.

If you were against racial discrimination before the protest even if there was disorder at it you would still be against it

I didn't say that. You don't hear about it very often here, if we have a problem it's not on the same level as the US.

This might help with your understanding of police violence against the community and the lack of justice for its victims in the UK.

The same people who criticised Dominic Cummings for breaking lockdown rules and putting lives at risk now support the protesters gathering en masse and putting many lives at risk.

Make it make sense people

And the answer to black lives being taken prematurely on a different continent is not to risk further black lives being taken prematurely or assaulting police officers here

Yes, black people have died in police custody here. So have white people. As have other races as well no doubt.

More to the point, an ''All lives matter'' march.

Been Googling have we......well so have I and 8% of all deaths in police custody were black. The black population is 3%....so almost 3 times as many black people died in police custody, than their numbers in the population merited

[PutneyO]

How is it that the Authorities ever allowed these protests to take place when crowds are allowed to watch football.

Ive got no sympathy with the Gov't or Police after this

Why do you do this schtick? Is it worth it? It's obviously good trolling, but it's not funny. It doesn't say anything interesting. It just means you can whip up the thickOs for a bit with an opinion you obviously just don't believe.
