I have just seen another video of the athlete incident.
He drove past at least 3 spaces where he could stop and you can see the police van behind them, he drives off while she gets her phone out to film out of the back window where you can see the police van trying to catch up.
If it was racist, what makes this incident racist? Without ROS or DOD giving it the "you are denying racism exists". Why was this racist? After he had driven off from the police and they both get hysterical when the police catch up with them.
Exactly.
No one is saying racism doesn't exist. The whole concept of equality is just a side plot when every man and his dog are crying discrimination.
I'll point out racism but I'll also point out nonsense. The athlete, the guy not paying for the train ticket, and the guy on the bike. All of them have behaved incorrectly and then played the race card.
It's funny how some went quiet on this thread for so long. Then there was a racist incident at wetherspoons though, so thankfully we can push that agenda again.
Not really funny, it's just that if I think something is relevant to the OP I'll post it. The kid on the bike thing I don't get, I can't see how its racist. Is the insinuation that because the bloke who hit him with the car is white and the kid is black he did it because because he's black rather than that he was riding his bike like a prick? The car thing I ain't even gonna try and get involved because it sounds like a shit show.Exactly.

I don't disagree with that. When did the lad on the bike 'play the race card'?I posted the bike video, mainly in response to Nick saying there is a society issue of people acting like pricks and also the train ticket video crowd reminding me of the way the lad on the bike's friends acted.

You didn't earlsdon did. I thought I was missing somethingWhen/where did I say he had?
So you were with a mate but thought you weren't and suddenly you declare you are black. Wow.This is part of the issue with society today
The police stop someone illegally based on the colour of their skin and then lie about why that person was stopped and they get away with it.
Now the police have stopped someone for being black and having a nice car but they've fucked yup by stoppinmg someone with a voice in the media.
But there are still people who as the police say "They were driving dangerously" will just take great delight in swallowing the polices lies and bullshit.
I've seen people get illegally stopped and searched, i've even been walking down the road with a mate and he has been stopped and searched and I haven't even though we were together. Only difference is he is white.
Regular reminder that the world isn’t going to shit, kids these days aren’t any worse than previous generations, and you just think they are because of the prevalence of video cameras and social media.
It's not just social media, it's everywhere. You literally really have to distance and go off grid to get away from it.Regular reminder that the world isn’t going to shit, kids these days aren’t any worse than previous generations, and you just think they are because of the prevalence of video cameras and social media.
A vehicle with blacked out windows made off at speed from the officers, travelling the wrong side of the road. The officers eventually caught up with the vehicle which was stopped in LANHILL ROAD W9. The driver initially refused to get out of the vehicle.View attachment 15769
Here's the road they were supposedly driving down on the "wrong side of the road"
Anyone see the problem?
OK, it's You Are The Ref. time. Lets look at that those plod at the station. What did they do wrong? Should they have let the bloke go? After all, on face value and prior to a search or establishing his identiy, he'd only dodged a ticket. Why would he run away just for that?There are also constant attempts to deny racism exists, however take a step back from the individual incidents and the reality is that it does, right from the top. Thats not going to be corrected & addressed by talking about whether an athlete or the police were in the wrong when a car is pulled over- I would imagine lots of these types of things are just stupid. Its a circular argument here & I have no plans to get embroiled in it- however to keep saying that its agreed that racism is an issue then rejecting everything out of hand based on these types of things- imho its missing the point a bit.
Drivers fault , he was white?What point is that?
Horrendus attitudes like that in spoons can now be dealt with as a hate crime. Good to see the police treating it seriously as it should be. I've no doubt before McPherson this would have been brushed off, but seems the police HAVE learned something in 21 years,.Exactly.

Is the fact he's black and those girls screaming let him go it's because hes black swaying your judgement that he should go on his merry way?
Nobody's "rejecting racism out of hand". If anything it's the opposite as some people seem hell bent to find problems when they either don't exist or can be justified.

All it proves is that doing wheelies, undertaking traffic, having an attitude bruv and possibly being distracted while wearing headphones is one day going to cause an accident.
But you jumped in making out people were denying racism exists and that nonsense? When they were discussing an incident you have no idea about.I don’t know anything about that incident as I’ve said multiple times, and I haven’t said it was racist, I’m not sure why you’re so obsessed with it.

You said that if the KKK were about people would excuse them, then you didn't have a clue about when people were in no way excusing a racist on here, the opposite.
Nice one. Good to see you were well versed before throwing about the "racism denyer" bullshit.
That's what happens when you aren't bothered about facts, just politics and backing up whatever your man David says.
Your post after was speaking on his behalf as well.lol- ok then.. I’m fine with where I stand on it, and it’s not me getting all defensive jumping on everything.

Could have driven down the wrong side of the M1 for all we know.
As they say they drove a bit further down the road and pulled into a parking space when safe to do so it's the same road.
Still any excuse to blame the black folk
If that’s what they’re claiming it doesn’t match what’s on the video. You can clearly see on that they drive down two roads before turning into the single lane road. They only actually stop when a second police car Is coming toward them, with one in front and one behind there is nowhere left for them to go.As they say they drove a bit further down the road and pulled into a parking space when safe to do so it's the same road.

You might suggest that the fact a second police car was required to block the road supports the polices version of events, that they failed to stop.
look at the road lay out round there Dave
Nothing on the video contradicts their account. I'm not going to further engage with this rather weird flex of people tying themselves in knots to justify the polices actions.
It's going to go to court, the police will have to release their dash cam then.
I truly feel for the non famous black people who get illegally stopped by the police who don't have the voice they do and face the rather weird flex from people.
JK Rowling joins warning over free speechBut it is you trying to justify their actions of driving away and making things up? Their own video shows them going past safer places to stop than where they finally stopped. She clearly knew the police were asking them to stop, hence she started filming.
People like you are actually part of the problem. You invent things that they must be innocent because they claim racism, even though the video contradicts some things
When proved wrong you just say gammon or racist, you can't deal with a constructive discussion.
I have visions of you in an dodgy nova with garage blasting out of the windows haha
Yeah, failed to stop, drove away at speed, drove on the wrong side of the road and also refused to get out of the car. The woman has been too traumatised to watch the video she made (that seems to start and end missing loads out) but she has uploaded it to social media.
Then wondering why the police are suspicious but it's instantly racist. What's the point? Don't drive away, don't drive on the wrong side of the road. It's all well and good playing on the "baby in the car" but why drive away from the police like a dick with the baby in the car?
It is going to get to the point where people are too scared to pull people over. I used to get pulled over on a weekly basis, just got out and didn't backchat or give it attitude and it's surprising how you get treated compared to if you drive away fast on the wrong side of the road.
Nah, it wasn't a Nova. Escort rs turbo, betterI have visions of you in an dodgy nova with garage blasting out of the windows haha
Yep. Great interviews with Holding and Ebony Rainford - Brent (first black woman to play for England).Anyone watching the cricket coverage?
Absolutely fabulous talk about black/white inequality.
