[Police are investigating an alleged homophobic attack against a woman as she walked home late at night. Charlie Graham, 20, was left bloodied and bruised after being attacked from behind in Sunderland. Northumbria Police confirmed they were looking into the incident in the early hours of Saturday, when Ms Graham was also said to have been subjected to homophobic abuse.] https://news.sky.com/story/sunderlan...o-men-11910567 |

Pretty terrifying that this keeps happening. I wonder what the attacker gained from doing this...

This poor lass was attacked a few weeks ago as well.
My hubby is a very gentle man, but he said these two need their legs broken and stuck in the stocks. He was next to tears when she was being interviewed. |

...I read that she’s been attacked on 5 separate occasions, Smudgie...and the police don’t believe any of those attacks are connected...poor lady, to feel that fear each time she goes out and to have it realised 5 times...it’s an horrendous thought.....it really does feel that the society we’re living in is becoming less and less tolerant...

...thing is, Liam...(..for me...)..What Laurence Fox said recently is a good example...(..it was talking about racism..)...he said that we all recognise it and call it when it’s obvious...?...but he’s completely ignoring the undertones that lead to ‘obvious’...’obvious’ doesn’t just go from one thing to another with nothing in between..?...it’s when undertones are there, that they shouldn’t be ignored...we’re all appalled at things like this as a society...but it’s like ‘intervention’, undertones of prejudice/bigotry etc should not be diminished...
