To ask why there are no riots?

Or why no media coverage even, or many posts except to excuse it.

Plenty of Muslim people celebrated the 911 attacks. During the Fires in Hollywood the comments section of videos on facebook were full of people with arabic names with God is great/want to see America destroyed etc. Racism and taking pleasure from other people misfortunes is far from a uniquely white experience.

Edit if you doubt this you can still see the videos on youtube or the comments on posts about the 2025 wildfires in LA.

before the troops arrived Germany was full of Nazis. when they arrived there were none.

However you ask why no riots when you probably mean why no protests.

The answer is no one wants to suggest locking up the deranged as there's so many people who need locking up. Anyone who believes men can turn into women are a danger to society. Should we lock them.up?
The mentally unstable who go on to hurt and kill need locking up but we've spent Forty years stopping doing that

Yes. A more pertinent question OP could have asked is ‘why are there no riots’ about this and the facts that many of these racist perpetrators remain unprosecuted?

In fact the government have deliberately made prosecution harder by allowing the destruction of many of the relevant documents.

And let’s think about why the total number of victims remains contested but could be up to 250,000 cases in the limited information available. It is because no one has bothered to investigate the majority of them.

Imagine the government’s reaction if a load of white men were targeting Muslim girls for rape and torture? Why don’t our girls even get a police investigation and their paperwork stored?

This whole situation on it’s own and the way it is treated by the government is a billion times more divisive and destructive to our society than any so called ‘right wing’ activists could dream up.

But we’re the bad guys right @Firetreev ?

Wrong, you must have missed the recent very similar attack in Edinburgh by an asylum seeker. There were no riots then either, just a peaceful protest by locals. There were also no comments from the prime minister and no MN threads.

Yes, she's totally ignored the report's findings presented here. Too uncomfortable to look at so let's ignore it and start a race baiting thread. Starmer and Mahmood tell people not to speculate when Muslims attack white people - mental illness. Other way round and it's a straight condemnation of islamophobia. Is it any wonder why people are rioting.

Yes I walked through Stratford upon Avon a couple of weekends ago and yes I seen a boot open with no real seats and several got out. Then you walked down a bit further and there was more. They are everywhere and they do not make days out enjoyable more uncomfortable.

This happened in Scotland, the stories here are often down the pecking order in a very London centric UK.

But you could also pick out a number of stories regarding all different ethnic backgrounds and question why there are no riots. Riots are often very random and don’t actually happen very often in the UK especially in a city like Edinburgh.

It sounds like you’re looking to spin this into more of a race thing and hence part of the problem. I just seen another nutcase causing carnage but we had a black guy do the same in Edinburgh not too long ago and guess what, no riots!

I actually didn’t vote and won’t vote.

It’s not about immigration. It never was. It’s about some rich and powerful people dog whistling the racism that lurks beneath the surface of more white people than I want to imagine, to make themselves more rich and powerful. Immigration concerns are just the foil.

I agree. It’s racism. Pure and simple.

This guy may well have had mental health issues, he certainly looked as if he was likely off his face on something.

There are a lot of comments on social media articles about this incident with laughing emojis saying it was justified, he’s a hero etc. I get that people have differing views about immigration but this is disgusting. Who the fuck thinks people getting stabbed is funny? I’ve never seen this level of open and outright facism in my lifetime. I live very local to this incident and my blood runs cold thinking of friends or their families walking up that road and potentially getting in the way of this. I’d like to think it was a one off lone nutter, which they usually are, but it’s the wider response which is worrying.

"Where are the rioters" Well Fevertreev maybe they give as many fucks as you do about the Muslim rape gang report. You haven't got much to say on that do you. More 250,000 children raped, tortured and murdered by muslim men and you are silent. Your silence on the horror and you starting this thread say everything. YDGAF about those children.

This was in Leith Edinburgh and did not even make headlines on Friday night. Scotland is not prone to riots. Edinburgh air port was closed over night on Friday due to 2 suspect packages. Bomb squad etc. Not aware of that being reported either

"I was out in a beautiful park the other day.. my daughter was looking at swans on a piece of grass. Muslims came along stood right in front of my child and didn’t take note of her and began taking photos so 3/4 big tall women and men so I went and stood right infront of them and said absolutely not. So some are giving themselves a bad name...."

I don't even know where to begin with this.

"I had a week off work.. they were everywhere 8 of them getting out of a 5 seat car...."

Are you actually a real person @Stressmummy12 ?

This.

What would rioting achieve? One man assaulted some people and was arrested. He's been charged and will presumably be jailed. It sounds like the police did their job.

In my experience, riots happen when justice is seen not to be done.

Exhibit A - the mental functioning of a Reform voter.

Of course its racism thats why there are no riots.

Do you genuinely not understand the differences?

The relevant facts here are that as well as being arrested immediately, he was handcuffed, his photo clearly publicised, his ethnicity advertised in the BBC headline and has already been charged.

The Prime Minister has already attempted to prejudice a fair trial tweeted his horror and given us his judgement on the motivation of the man, even before the police investigation, a medical assessment and ignoring the fact that thankfully the injuries were not serious and the victims were but all Muslim.

So what is there for anyone to riot about? The Muslim Council of Britain is already on the case and has secured a personal assurance from the PM that he will not tolerate this and the man will ‘face the full force of the law’.

I’d say that’s a pretty comprehensive and powerful response, notably missing from recent cases where people of British origin are the victims and the perpetrators are not.

But why let the facts get in the way of your Brit bashing thread?

Agree, the asylum system is costing us, and the appeal system means that we are funding these people for years, even if their claims are rejected.

@Firetreev they're just trying to distract you from the actual point of your thread by faking outrage about one minor slip. I'd ignore, tbh, they don't want anyone talking about the real issues at hand.

How does it do that?

What is it about the German form of "Mr" that equates him with the 3rd Reich?

If you went with Fuhrage, I'd still think it was a bit crap, but it'd least get the intended point across.

And I agree with you that Farage is a despicable human being.

I just don't think that a pathetic nickname that equating all German men withNazis is the best way to get that across.

Its racist, and given that your thread is meant to be decrying racism, it rather undermines your point.
