Black Lives Matter UK
|
Over the last few weeks BLM have arrived in the UK and I'm scratching my head as to why they're here. I don't think blacks Brits have it bad and certainly better by some distance than those in the US. So what are they protesting about? Police brutality? Give over.
I know of two incidents where BLM - First a protest last week which went peacefully. Probably turned several heads, black and white wondering what they were moaning about and then last night. Well it seems BLM interrupted a water fight in Hyde Park and kicked off a riot, stabbing one Policeman. They also managed to loot a McDonalds.
Black lives matter relevant, or bandwagon jumping with no basis for a protest movement here?
You've probably guessed my point of view.

I don't think BLM have arrived here, more like dickheads in this country have latched on to it as a nice excuse to play up for a bit

Some kid up here in Liverpool died after being nicked last week, his mum's been in the local paper saying she hates this country and wants him buried in Jamaica, and has asked for donations to make this possible, all while describing her son as a "chocolate L8 soldier" (I'm not kidding, it's all in the link below)

Meanwhile the rest of us are wondering why she doesn't just get a job.

What do you mean they've arrived? Did they come en masse via boat? I would suggest that yesterday it was a group of pissed up kids using BLM to antagonise the Police and draw attention to themselves, rather than draw attention to any 'cause'.

Like Trevor B said, an excuse for a few pricks to get stabby, a little bit of sunshine and the world goes mad.

Trev, stop being silly.
This divisive group shouldn't exist, let alone here. And when I mean arrived, I mean a few black people with inferiority complexes jumped on the BLM bandwagon for a moan.
Cheers, Mashed.
You're in Liverpool, Eh? Might have to meet you for a pint next time I visit my wife's family.

Black people with inferiority complexes moaning about something they consider racist? That's hardly a new thing. It's just a new excuse.
As I said though, yesterday wasn't that. Kids will now start using this 'movement' in order to cry racism when they have been a bit naughty.

The old girl must've shagged the whitest ginger Glaswegian then moved on to the blackest bloke this side of the Sahara.

Amazed to see they raised over a grand in 3 days, which was their goal. Not sure that is going to be enough to even ship him out there, unless they sit him bolt upright in economy class! Then there are the funeral costs. I imagine the money will go on something other than sending him to Jamaica to be buried!

When looting a McDonalds do they nick the food already made or do they take the ingredients to make their own? Hmmm

Black Lives Matter rose up in UK after several police officers were shot dead by black lives matter in the U.S.
I'm not really sure what point they're trying to make

He's definitely not an albino. That would make the whole protest silly.

BLM in Canada recently stopped a gay pride parade and wouldn't let it continue until the LGBT community signed an agreement about black representation in gay society and promoting black people more.
