1969 Posted August 3, 2024 Posted August 3, 2024 People who go just to kick off and create havoc can fuck right off.Those people who go to demonstrate and voice their opinions peacefully I have no problems with.This has been festering for quite a while, people are frustrated, angry and had enough of the way this country is being run.Brexit is the cause of sum of it in the way it's been implemented but also austerity and seeming one rule for one another rule for others.People are saying enough is enough Quote

Assuming that the protest/riot will start off in the Town Hall Square, they will see the boarded up Bank as it’s pretty prominent in the square. Fairly certain the organisers will be pointing at it to justify their ‘cause’ Edited August 3, 2024 by BobyBrno Quote

BLM riots and protests were sparked across the US and UK by a drug addled criminal getting his throat knelt on by a copper. Those who had felt victim of racism etc on our shores had been waiting for that torch paper to bit lit and it all went off. In reality nobody gave a fuck about George Floyd but the movement was waiting to happen long before him. That incident was just the catalyst. Quote

As abhorrent as the George Floyd affair was, it was one of the rare non-racist attacks committed by white coppers in America. This one was actually personal between the copper & Floyd who had history, but it was the spark that lit the fuse. Quote

Guest Posted August 3, 2024 Posted August 3, 2024 (edited) Still nobody can say that what anyone is actually protesting about? What is it people are protesting against? This is why I do not think this compares to other protests because they have a cause. We can disagree with the cause but at least we know what it is and people have a right (thankfully) to peaceful protest in this country. And in those protests when people step out of line against the law they are rightfully dealt with. The problem here is I still have no idea what they are actually protesting against or about.

Traf Posted August 3, 2024 Posted August 3, 2024 I've no issue with any organised group holding a disciplined peaceful march/demonstration/call it what you will, but the wanton destruction of property and attacks on innocent people have to stop. I'm hoping the recent sentencing levels imposed on the Just Stop Oil people is extended across to anyone arrested during or after these recent outbreaks of trouble irrespective of their political leaning / religious beliefs / cultural identity / skin colour etc etc Basically protest all you like, but break the law and get done for it. Build new prisons and start locking folk up. Quote

Some are protesting 2 tier policing, some the amount of immigrants coming over. I’m sure there’s many other reasons if you want to look, but I get the impression that you don’t. Quote

A protest can’t really be called a protest if it’s just a random group of people protesting ‘a variety of things’. Especially when they are supposedly protesting about the events in Southport that aren’t linked to ‘supposed’ two tier policing or immigration. It also doesn’t explain why there are people involved in the protests online selling flares and fireworks and maps of mosque locations. What is that a protest about? Quote

You will agree with them a rota, so you can do 'week in week out' where you do 7 days lock up and 7 days at home. There is a less popular option where one does days the other does nights. 7am-7pm is the day shift. Quote
