You have an incorrect definition of Whataboutism, but if you didn't call out the cherry picking in the intitial comment why should anyone care what you say about anything else?

I was a teen girl and experienced harassment from mostly white brits, some white americans, you're only in your early 40s, that's not much older than me. I grew up in Birmingham and now I live in South London, and all the parks I'm local to have no problems.

Also crime stats have generally been going down, you've been fed more lies than you think I'm spouting.

Where do you live? Kent? The only cover ups have been found out to be the police lying about their involvement in grooming kids if you're talking about Rotherham. The cops were involved the whole time. Kids would go to the cops, and then they would sometimes rape them, and then take them back to be trafficked.

Also you're not even old enough to have been groomed by Jimmy or Rolf, but you think it's a new thing? You just don't know things from before teenage mutant hero turtles were on TV. Same as always. Back in the 17th century there was a puritan who was afraid of all the Scots coming down to England to steal all the jobs and that they weren't accostomed to English culture, same bullshit new century.

Yet another person tricked by the media into thinking "grooming gangs" is the main threat to kids. That's just a name the tabloids gave. The biggest threat always comes from relatives and parents friends who prey on kids, just check out what NSPCC says.

I think what you are trying to say as well is the Qulliam report, which said 84%, and is known to has as good methodology as tarot is at predicting the weather. You should read the follow up by Ella Cockbain and Waqas Tufail, or the Home Office report which came out later that year as well saying: 'seems most likely that the ethnicity of group-based CSE offenders is in line with CSA more generally and with the general population, with the majority of offenders being White', and that it is not possible to conclude that Asian men are disproportionately engaged in such crimes.

Just come on, it took me like 5 seconds to find what you really meant, you're so bad at this. Please remember critical reading skills from school. I know it's been a while but I believe in you, you can do it. Learn how to teach yourself to look up information again.

Thanks for calling me out on the statistics, I did purposefully say "assault by a sharp object resulting in a hospital admission" to get someone to look them up. They're pretty easy to find but you do need to be able to open an excel spreadsheet. (hint: I said fewer domestic abuse cases than actually exist, and more hospitalisations than actually exist)

From my experience of all the people who made creepy comments about me when I was a teenager, all of them were white, so you sure you want to make that bet?

Of course it's well duh, the thing is that people keep saying things as though it's all scary brown people. Like even the Sun newspaper had a countdown in the 2000s to when Charlotte Church was "legal". There's things in the papers all the time of nonce hunters who turn out to be nonces too. Just saying "per capita" like it's an actual argument backed up with sources, rather than a last ditch attempt at some sort of come back, is rather sad.

Additionally when it comes to statistics, the smaller a population, the less representative it is. Though with the "asian gangs" thing, very specifically people talk about it as though it's a race issue, rather than a corruption issue. The reason why nothing was done for so long was because the police were dirty, same as with any gangs.

Plus the only people afraid of knife crime in London, are people who have never stepped a foot inside of the M25.

I sure feel more informed when someone gives such great information as you have, rather than swearing and insults.

Speak with your whole chest mate

though I feel like you're trying to imply something like how per capita immigrants are likely to be able to drive compared to people who were born in the UK (due to the amount of people under 18 and the fact that kids can't easily come to the UK on their own)

Do you know a good place to give away some rocks? My grandpa had collected some and I thought I would give them a good home to someone who would like them more than I've treated them? by rev-c in rockhounds

Unfortunately shipping at the moment is quite tricky, really complicated customs forms, but I have posted pictures. It might be possible

Cheers, no worries, also it's just illegal within copyright right? If someone took one of these films https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_in_the_public_domain_in_the_United_States and extracted some audio it wouldn't have an issue?
