Yes That would make a change

Rather pathetic tbh, I'd be fuming if these fools were blocking me from Zante

Did the life's of the black people inconvenienced today trying to go about their business matter, nope, these are just band wagon jumpers who have nothing better to do and can't see that they are hindering rather than helping

"How can we increase support for Black Lives Matter?"
"I know - let's block off roads, ruin people's holidays and piss everyone off!"

Great logic :rolleyes:

The funny thing, the US is even rolling its eyes at this. :hehe:

Way to do the cause more harm than good, idiots.

Pretty much this

Which is a shame because I really support the cause but today's actions have been really silly

From ITV1HD London News

Well done that Motorist
that broke their signs
he had to pick up people at the Airport.

arista 05-08-2016 05:17 PM

Some Punks were chained
with Concrete - so the Cops have to Chip
away at the Concrete first.


And well done that Black Lady
in Central London
who said the Police are now better
in the Community

a Russian type ban on Propaganda is needed for these mentalists

Tom4784 05-08-2016 05:20 PM

They are incredibly moronic and I'm guessing they're just after attention rather than being interested in the actual cause as disrupting UK roads and airports like that won't solve any problems in the US.

All they are doing is giving the racists more ammo to use against BLM.

azelf 05-08-2016 05:22 PM

Must you call them punks in every post?

azelf 05-08-2016 05:24 PM

This was badly thought out and executed. Though some posters in here are using it as an excuse to bash the whole movement.

No as a Business Partner
all costings are shared.

It was ill thought out, look as how the police are handling the situation in the pics...
What does it tell us?

It tells us that the protesters have massively damaged their own cause, now when those impacted think of BLM they won't think of any injustices...they'll think of this, people being prevented from going to work or on holiday.

Should this have been students or any other peaceful protest that impacted on the public there would have been a distinctly more heavy handed approach involving specialist officers.
