I couldn't agree with you more and I'm glad someone has had the guts to voice it.
It's a caveat. "We now know there's a common link with the Pakistani heritage of the perpetrators and now acknowledge it is in fact a 'thing' but just so as nobody accuses us of racism we'll pretend that all the Pakistani community are up in arms and find it deplorable"
You won't hear a peep out of them.
As we never do. When other minority ethnic groups commit atrocious crimes (Axel Rudakubana- where's all the threads on black Mumsnetters appalled at him ? There's only threads relating to black victims of crime) nobody on there seems to care about the white kids?) when terrorism under the name of 'religion' takes place : the Muslim community aren't falling over themselves to unite with us and scream from the rooftops "not in our name" .
Now, we know of bloody course that just because someone shares a religion or colour with someone awful that they don't have to answer for their crimes. But if it is a minority group within the UK, especially when their stating there is Islam phobia and racism, surely someone, anyone is willing to speak up and say "these monsters don't represent us" or at least advertise sympathy with the victims.
Let's face it : we harp on and on and on, on here how "males need to step up and sort out male violence" etc. but why are they the only group expected to sort out their "own" ?
I think we've just kind of accepted nobody else has to bend over backwards for cohesion.
