TBH - I don't know - just showing the photo outside the Nike shop in Oxford St. yesterday - perhaps their old trainers have been worn down with all the protest marches they may have been on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven't clubbed him to the ground. One of the videos I saw yesterday was really bad, a big white bloke being repeatedly hit with a stick by a black policeman, think they had tasered him already, he was just stood there with his hands, up, I've no idea what was going on. Was that the other way around it would have been in every paper, but it could be an old video someone has posted? I saw a picture and video. The pictures and videos can be used in isolation to drive an agenda, as appears to be case with that one, but again, taking it at face value does not paint the US cops in a good light.

Retsdon Posted June 16, 2020 Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 This is an interesting one. In my view his age is irrelevant. Either it was wrong to push him over or it wasn't.

So here is a question, we are told that this virus has more effect on the Bame group, we're told that there needs to be an investigation as to why this is, are we supposed to think that none of the lads in these pictures have been told or do they not give a rats #### So Saturday we have BLM marches and demos with statues and monuments covered up, rioting and violence, but then monday when the shops open it's a free for all, BL(don't)M. I realise this is a small group, but someone tell me why I should listen to what BLM are saying or why the government should change anything when a sports shop opening shows how people really feel, push your way in because trainers matter. We have personally been avoiding any ques, anywhere that might be busy, this is despite us not expecting to be affected, if it was a case of white people aged 30-50 are most likely to be affected you wouldn't find me anywhere near something as irrelevant as a sports shop.
