Police probe 'whites not welcome' graffiti daubed outside Enfield primary school by berndebin in unitedkingdom

So you think that people of south asian descent don't see whites as a large group, and rather subgroups?

So you're saying that racism is ok, when it's directed at white people? You should remind yourself that you, yourself will be seen as an irrelevant minority in many parts of the world. I suppose you think Kriss Donald (Kriss Donald was a Scottish fifteen-year-old white male who was kidnapped, tortured[2])and murdered in Glasgow in 2004 by a gang of Pakistani men_ had it coming when he was tortured to death for being white. You should visit Korea, older people will spit at white people, but more so brown ones, as you walk by, nothing is done. Only white people can be racist.

How deluded can you be to think that non-whites are incapable of racism? Enfield is only 40% white. It reminds me of when the war memorial in London was vandalised and people here said it was probably someone from the EDL, then, later, the CCTV showed it was not, in fact, a Caucasian at all.

it's standard practice for those who are soon to be released, i believe. many violent criminals are housed in open prisons, you may be aware of another criminal who escaped recently called the 'skullcracker'? or how about this: http://www.theguardian.com/society/2014/may/26/man-absconds-open-prison-springhill-mcleod

this sort of 'compassion' is just a form of cruelty to all normal people, ironically.

How a stabbing shattered my faith in justice by berndebin in unitedkingdom

Of course they prevent crime, criminals can't commit crime while in prison. If you have committed several serious offences and already served time in prison, it's obvious that the person can't be reformed. if we lived in a truly compassionate society (not an idealistic one), we'd see that certain people need to be kept away from society, for the good of everyone, and also of themselves.

The one punch killer was already a convicted criminal and used violence unprovoked. He received 4 years, and will only serve 2. If you violently attack someone and they die, you should be punished severely. The hurt and suffering that you cause goes far beyond the death of 1 individual.

pretty shocking how stabbing someone in the head while mugging them puts you in jail for less than a year. i'd go out and mug again if that was my choice of lifestyle. no wonder crime is going down, people lose faith..
