"Race-based pogrom" and "huge act of self-harm by mindless idiots who are actually only damaging their own futures".

[Batmanisaplaceinturkey]

Northern Ireland's First Minister Michelle O'Neill says "groups of masked men" were "burning families out of their homes"

One pastor in north Belfast says black people's homes were targeted, while an MP tells the BBC there was a "race-based pogrom"

The PSNI Chief Constable Jon Boutcher says the violent disorder in Belfast was a "huge act of self-harm by mindless idiots who are actually only damaging their own futures".

I agree with all the quotes. Sick of mindless racist thugs and their 'protests', where they look like they are enjoying themselves while they commit violence and set fire to things.

You said you support them “taking action”

The action that included firebombing houses, smashing up shops, burning buses and cars, and stopping cars in the street to determine if they’re inhabited by white people or not.

Pretty disgusting imo.

Yes exactly that 🙄 and you support beheadings and grooming gangs.

Pretty disgusting imo.

Children were firebombed in the 'action'.

No, they won't do so themselves. But they will whip up their supporters into a frenzy which can result in people doing such things.

Sorry, what?

Because I’m against people smashing up their town centres and burning houses down I “support beheadings and grooming gangs”?

I’d thank you to retract that accusation and apologise because I do nothing of the sort. You’ve directly said you support the action being taken.

And you keep repeating false accusations too.

I’m directly quoting what you said. You said you support people taking action.

You've changed between "action being taken" and "the action being taken" which are different.

I specifically stated I don't support firebombing houses.

HTH.

Yet you support the action being taken.

I suggest you get off your high horse and go take a look at your racist self in the mirror.

27 people made homeless, there are 22 attempted murder investigations from last night's violence. It is being described as specific in its locations and racist in its intent. Franky anyone on here suggesting any of this is anything but a racist violent pogrom are morally bankrupt.

TBF, you did say - on a thread referring to firebombing babies in their homes in the name of "community" - that you fully support "people taking action in their communities". I can see where the confusion arose.

Just out of interest - when you said you support people "finally doing something" what "somethings" are you so pleased to see?

Evil. Utterly evil.

They don’t even think about what they’re doing. Arson with intent to endanger life is a life sentence in prison.

So are you going out to riot in Dartmoor? Getting your children to do it? Are you agitating and advocating for this action online in your area?

If not, why not?

You sit in your high earning ivory, peaceful tower far far way supporting whats happening in my city, to my friends, family and neighbours? To my kid's friends?🤯 School was not easy this morning.😢

Last night the people of Belfast lost their homes, businesses, cars, public facilities, peace at the hands of violent, lawless, racist thugs.

WTAF?🤬

People coming together to unite against savagery on the streets of the UK. If people do nothing then nothing will change.

Of course I don't support violence of any kind (god knows we've seen enough of that in recent years) but we should be having protests, road closures for marches, flags flying.

The savagery on the streets of the UK is fuckwits firebombing houses and smashing up businesses.

Got in there before I could. Presumably @Purplerocket you'll be organising a march to protest the rioting "savagery" in Belfast?

Surely it’s both? That and gouging peoples eyes out and trying to slit their throats?

But that didn't happen last night the title of the thread is fairly self explanatory so your suggestions on what should happen are slightly irrelevant in the discussion on this specific thread and only lead people to assume you, to some extent, support the "Race-based pogrom"

If I was able to attend a protest in my nearest city then I would but I work very long hours in order to pay tax for illegal migrants.

It’s an awful isolated incident, versus what will likely be multiple nights of violence. The city centre in Belfast was apparently deserted today, which will only do more damage to the local area.

But yes, do please continue to lecture me on how these people care for their local communities, while they destroy them.

So no, you won’t.

Hilarious.

I don't live there.

Hilarious.

Excuse after excuse.

You support people taking action and stand against violence, but won’t actually get out and protest? Just admit you support what they did and go about your day man

What action taken would you support that you referenced then?

You said action being taken in their communities, what is that?

I've said multiple times I don't support THE action but I support something being done.
