    Not sure if you meant it that way but that post reads as one of the most racist things I've seen here for a long time.

    Where is the racism in that post:confused:

    Maybe i'm not woke enough

    You need to put your woke goggles on. You can find racism everywhere and anywhere with a pair.

    “The man who lies to himself can be more easily offended than anyone else. You know it is sometimes very pleasant to take offense, isn't it? A man may know that nobody has insulted him, but that he has invented the insult for himself, has lied and exaggerated to make it picturesque, has caught at a word and made a mountain out of a molehill--he knows that himself, yet he will be the first to take offense, and will revel in his resentment till he feels great pleasure in it.”- ― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

    I think the posted thought the other poster was suggesting it would have been great if the youngfellas had received a more thorough hiding.

    To be fair to riffmongous, I think he read my post wrongly.

    I think he's interpreting it as me saying "I Wish those white lads really showed those blacks who's boss".


    What I was actually saying was; from reading the article I initially thought it was a group of scumbags out doing their scumbag thing, and a few adults put some manners on them. If that were the case, I wouldn't have cared if they were black, white or anything else.


    But obviously more info came out that apparently that wasn't the case, and it seems like the attack was just because 'he looks different lol', which obviously is racially motivated.

    Good to see the local community getting behind them. The father is a bigger man than I. I'd want heads if that was my son.

    I thought maybe the 3 adults had had enough with an anti-social group and gave a hiding to them.


    Would have been great if that was what actually happened. :o

    Ignoring the massive speculation on your part.... Adults beating up kids is great? are you for real?

    There is no future for Boards as long as it stays on the complete toss that is the Vanilla "platform", we've given those Canadian twats far more chances than they deserve.

    so ...(while I think its for the police to investigate anyway); did wonder if one of the dads is more connected hence this reached the newspapers. what I mean is ... found an insta profile introduction having same name that had ".../irish family promoting mixed race n culture through french"
    (-> just another speculation)
    very sorry for the kids experience - but plse stop posting other pictures about them, there is still nothing we can do about it even if we see new pics.

    PS: - 3 adults + baby in a stroller remind me of some movies about commies spies :(
    PPS: - think a segment of parents might be considering self-defense classes for own kids ...not sure how much would have helped here anyway.
