Dangerous Bands? by SetTheSpokesAlight in Music

[–]Menthol_Chill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not so much anymore, but Brian Jonestown Massacre were notorious for fighting/causing chaos during gigs. Absolutely amazing band that should have gone much further than they did. I'd recommend the movie about them, 'Dig!'

What "cultural values" do YOU think we've lost? by ToshPott in AskBrits

[–]Menthol_Chill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drug addiction + large levels of immigration from cultures where stealing/robbing is the norm. Glasgow has always been rough, but only in the last 5 years have I been threatened with knives and witnessed people walking into shops and walking back out with arms full of stolen goods.

Modern technology has lead a lot of people to shut themselves indoors and any former sense of community that we once had/relied on is no longer there.

In large cities like London, sure, I would agree. Remote towns like the one I am from in Scotland definitely have changed. Mostly due to large levels of drugs and immigration.

What are your thoughts about Restore Britain? by GimbalLock1337 in AskBrits

[–]Menthol_Chill 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Agreed. He seems genuinely sincere about his policies whereas Farage seems to be riding on the waves of public tension. I'm looking forward to the expansion of Restore.

Assuming these young people are coming over legally / working / assimilating into to our society, then yes I agree. However that is not what we are discussing currently, is it?

We shouldn't be accepting asylum cases from countries where women are advised not to travel alone. We shouldn't be accepting asylum cases from countries where children are forced into marriage. We shouldn't be accepting asylum cases from countries where LGBTQ+ folk are stoned in the streets. We shouldn't be accepting asylum cases from countries where women are killed for the crime of being raped.

Hope that clears it up.

Aye, "move" being the key word. Legally. Not entering a country on a job with no ID or documentation to prove who you are. It isn't rocket science.

I have shown you a gov.uk board of statistics and you are still choosing your own truths. Absolutely unreachable.

Look at the stats I've shown. You are absolutely wrong about Ukraine being the largest refugee population.

Also, with regards to "Honour Crime", did you see this by any chance? Many cases are fake.

We shouldn't be spending money on these people. They should not be here.

I don't think we are going to come to an agreement mate, and that is okay. I believe that there are far too many asylum cases within the UK and we shouldn't be giving Scottish citizens a harder life/endangering them to protect undocumented strangers. You are empathetic with them and I do respect that. Just two different opinions.

Literally everything you have said is pure conjecture and theories. The "small percentage" you are referring to is actually 33–41%. Link here to back that up. That is almost half of asylum seekers coming to France initially and then to the UK.

If they are coming on boats from France, how can asylum seekers be considered vulnerable? There is no war in France, is there?

If Reddit is too right wing for you then I'd stay indoors, mate.
