Let's hope the attackers are found quickly, hauled into court and locked away for a few years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crookesey Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 The knife ban and mask ban should come in ASAP, and before anyone objects to the mask ban , go and have a sit down and a good think, if you still consider banning masks is a bad idea there are hospitals specialising in mental problems that should be of help. I’m assuming that there are no objectors to the knife ban on this forum. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I passed a massive mob of people heading to Notting Hill about an hour ago. They were having a right old time. Looked brilliant too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that paragraph 7, chapter 12 of the " what to say about the Notting Hill Carnival" left wing handbook? Let's pretend it's St George's day and there were this many arrests, stabbings, sexual assaults and assaults on emergency workers...do you think the Guardian would be saying " it's one big ball of happiness" And that was just on " Family day" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now obviously I am assuming you have intelligence to realise that my first paragraph is tongue in cheek, but the rest is a totally valid argument. "A big ball of happiness" Stabbings. A women stabbed whilst with her child. Sexual assaults Emergency workers assaulted 90 arrested. Such fun. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would anyone get pleasure from awful acts such as a stabbing and other crimes happening at a carnival? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
