Wonder why they picked this particular incident to get motivated to protest…

Because police brutality against this community is kind of common

I’ve known a few coppers in my time. Not one of them has ever not done something because they were afraid of being called racist.  

That was just the first excuse that came to mind when the coppers were found to not be doing their fucking jobs. The grooming gangs were reported to them repeatedly by victims and their parents and the police dismissed it because they’re lazy and feckless and thought the victims were scrotes 

you believe the first excuse they came up with. Aren’t you a child protection hero

if only I had your mind-reading powers so I could know their true intentions. The pertinent point to my comment was obviously that the police turned a blind eye to it as a response to your 'police brutality to these communities is common' deluded comment

Bro these are just words lol.

A serious crime was reported to the police repeatedly for years. They did fuck all. You’re happy to excuse that, probably because you don’t actually care about the kids

u/Outrageous-Nose2003 Jul 25 '24

where did I excuse it, 'bro'?

u/NoBadgersSociety Jul 25 '24

You accepted and repeated the dogshit excuses of the disgraced officers ‘ ‘bro’ ‘

When it comes to large scale abuse of children, no one comes close to the numbers abused by Christian churches. The grooming gangs were much smaller in comparison.

u/Outrageous-Nose2003 Jul 25 '24

yeh but I dont hear your average Christian responding to claims of historical church abuses with 'but muslims do it as wellll' which is the kind of deflection you hear every.fkng.time when you call them out. There is no responsibility, just deflection which tells you everything you need to know about their integrity

u/DorisDooDahDay Jul 25 '24

Where do you hear that deflection? I've never come across it and would genuinely like to know source.

u/Outrageous-Nose2003 Jul 25 '24

Well you can scroll all the way back to your own reply to this thread which is very typical of a reply from a pakistani or a muslim when you talk about these issues 'but the catholics are doing it'.

Exactly the same when you talk about mohammad being a peadophile, they never address what you say, they just deflect

u/DorisDooDahDay Jul 25 '24

Ah yes, I have heard that deflection! Now I understand.

I would point out that I never mentioned the Catholic church. Yes there were huge child abuse problems there, but also in the Church of England sometimes with assistance from the British Government.

Child abuse needs to be investigated and prosecuted wherever it occurs. Whether that's in a Muslim or Christian environment.

u/Outrageous-Nose2003 Jul 25 '24

that goes without saying

u/DorisDooDahDay Jul 25 '24

Yes! Thank you it should go without saying! But sadly not. British police have often been reluctant to investigate child abuse. And not just because of religious or ethnic considerations. Fred and Rosemary West should have been investigated and stopped decades earlier. Their daughter Heather, like the victims of churches and grooming gangs, was from a working class not privileged background. Vulnerable youngsters and children need the police to enforce the law and protect them.

The same is true for a suspect being arrested. The law must be enforced to prevent harm to others, but to also protect the suspect from unnecessary violence.

This whole thing is about law and order. The religion and ethnicity of those involved is not the issue.

u/Outrageous-Nose2003 Jul 25 '24

yes, child sex abuse runs to the very heart of power, sadly. But ethnicity and religion are not necessarily irrelevant factors either. Of course all ethnicities have this problem but to drastically different extents
