Protesters in Southampton Demand Police Take a Knee For Henry Nowak, The Man They Murdered

Things are getting Mostly Peaceful.

Niall Ferguson
@nfergus
"You are not likely to see Henry Nowak's words stenciled on a mural. No corporation will change its logo. The same establishment that made a few words immortal when spoken by a black man in Minneapolis has met the same words, spoken by a white boy dying on a British street, with what can only be described as a determined, institutional silence. That silence is not neutral. It is a statement. It tells you exactly whose suffering the system has decided counts, and whose does not."

"The system taught [the police], in effect, that an allegation of racism is a trump card that overrides normal investigative procedure, normal medical common sense, and normal human judgement. That system was built with the best of intentions, by people who genuinely wanted to address real injustices. And it has produced a policing culture in which a killer can stab a teenager five times, claim to be the victim of racism, and the police won't ask questions, until it's too late."

That's actually from Konstantin Kisin, writing here.

🚨ANGRY PROTESTORS DEMAND POLICE TAKE A KNEE FOR HENRY NOWAK

They did it for BLM why not for white victims? pic.twitter.com/6gJshJ5Ayr

The cops do not get on their knees, of course. That kind of respect is reserved for a bloated American drug addict and strong-arm robber who ate all of his drugs so that the police couldn't confiscate them, and died by his own hand.

Make Keir Starmer take the knee. Force him to kneel for Henry Nowak on camera.

He did it eagerly for George Floyd. Why will he not do it for Henry Nowak?

They can't come back until they take the first step. The first step ISN'T the immigration issue. It ISN'T the two tier justice system.

IT'S THE CENSORSHIP. They avoid massive bloody protests and demands by assuring that their public is ill informed on what's happening around them. I guarantee you that we know more about the injustices within the UK than the people that reside there.

You always here that knowledge is the most dangerous weapon. It's no different in this situation. They censor everything that is contrary to the agenda. That's whay the government was so keen on levying penalties on social media platforms for failing to remove what the government wanted removed.

It's easy to be sympathetic when your side(or at least your relatives) is the one seizing control.

It is what Democracy turns into. Everyone demanded a buy in, and once they saw someone else demand and get more, they upped their bids. All that demanded someone lose everything to pay for the masses' demands, and once they had gone that far, they needed to end any counter revolutionary action, and give the mob more spectacular deaths of traitors and enemies to keep them from turning on the government.

What ended the Terror was that it started preying on the people with guns and political power who realized they would not be left for later. They were, of course, so smeared by their silence during the Terror, they had no legitimacy in the face of the economic and military collapse. That is when Napoleon came in as first Consul.

That's what happened in Sandy Eggo...they were collecting the recycling and trash, yet dumping it all in the same place...and they got in trouble for it. They might now be dumping them in separate places...

164 They never made us recycle here in my area of SC.
Two bins - garbage and yard debris.

166 Call back to ..

"A police officer at the centre of a viral video who arrested a teenage girl when she said she looked like her 'lesbian nana' has been ordered to apologise and undergo 'reflective training'. The West Yorkshire Police officer was accused of using 'inappropriate' language."

Golly! Reflective training!

Lesbian Nana is on video showing her behaving like an angry Yorkshire Terrier running about pepper spraying bystanders.

No, failing suicide and being left untended on a table overnight moaning in incredible pain after having half his lower jaw blown off is really not just compensation.

169 And recycle bins. I have three bins: trash, recycle, greens.

All the time. They dump it in the same hatch in the garbage trucks.

170 They try to make us put food waste in the greens bin (e.g. egg shells)...but it was messy and nasty. They had a small container for it that you put in your freezer, but my freezer is full of actual food, you *******. So I dump the egg shells and other food waste in the trash.

171 I thought they dumped San Diego trash in Tijuana.

173 6pm....News

CBC - free trade deal
CNN - Florida sues OpenAI, Trump fund 1.7 Billion dead, primaries

FoxNews - Iran, Rubio
MS Now - Trump backs down from Maga fund. Partisan warrior for DNI.

The Brits will have to kill a few thousand in charge if they ever want to even make the news.

I need food. The guillotine basket holding the heads is half-empty.

174 You don't have to recycle here, its just it works because I toss all the cardboard into the one bin and it gives me more room in the trash bin. They even give a small fourth red basket you can put glass and other stuff in that allegedly is recycled in a different place.

De Sade alone was enough of an indication that things were going straight to hell.

Here they have a different truck the recycle goes in but... not convinced it goes a different spot than the dump
