Ugh. Wendy your comments really disgust me.
The comments made by Starkey were crass and unwarranted and quite frankly pathetic. Your attempts to equate looting with Black people and Black culture is somewhat F*ç'?#! offensive. (I try not to get angry on these forums, but seriously YOU are the prejudiced, ignorant, condescending fool!)
I suppose the student riots in the UK last year were influenced by Black culture?
Excuse me while I PMSL!
What can you say about the violent football yob culture - which the UK is unfortunately so well known for - Guess the yobs were trying to copy Black culture??!
Your argument is so fundamentally flawed. Shame on you.
Rioting also took place in Enfield, and if you are from London or as you say lived in London, then as you should know, not many Black people in Enfield…. Fact. So then, what would your agument be there?
At the end of the day the riots were carried out by mindless criminals regardless of their colour, race or ethnicity.
It’s important that we are all conscious of ignorant people and foolish historians who attempt to create divides and selectively label people as good vs. bad based upon race and their prejudices. Some people are too quick to forget that it is such ideologies that have led to the genocide of millions of innocent people throughout history, -during WW2, during wars in the Balkans and in parts of Africa.
To make violent culture synonymous with all Black people is nothing but ignorant and promoting a hate culture which we all should stand against regardless of what race, nationality, colour, ethnicity creed we are.
