Why Are Certain Abers Allowed To Highjack Certain Threads?

[anotheoldgit]

Today I had the need to ask the Editor to remove a perfectly reasonable thread appertaining to the recent riot taking place on a street in London.

From the off set this thread was high-jacked by certain members who obviously have taken a dislike to not only me personally, but also to the threads that I place on the news section of answerbank.

I did report one of the offenders, but no action against him was taken

The ED or someone else was good enough to remove the thread, but did not take the opportunity to chastise the offending members.

I can do that in my sleep, Mamya. Often do, in fact.

Thank you Jno, very kind of you.

The box to put your password in has been there for years and the other box is to put your reasons in. When was the last time you reported a post?

For those who aren't familiar with the thread that I posted here is the headline:

Mayhem And Carnage On The Streets Of Our Capital Once Again.

These mobs don't do anything to foster good relations with certain ethnic minorities.

-------------------------------------

Now if anyone can see what is wrong with that, then I give up.

If it is the "foster good relations with certain ethnic minorities", that some take offence to.

Then for those who wish to see more into than is really there, let me explain.

Certain members of the ethnic minorities, seem to take to the streets on each and every occasion that they deem to have been somehow mistreated.

One this particular occasion it was from the mainly black community, and we see unnecessary looting and damage, and because of this type of behaviour, is it any wonder that they do nothing to foster good relations with the law abiding peoples of this country?

The same goes with Muslims or even white students maybe, but in this case it happened to be from mainly black persons, one cannot alter that fact, no matter how much it might offend some.

Which 'certain members' AOG?

[albaqwerty]

why does 'dog' and 'bone' spring to mind?

[Mamyalynne]

Why does , ask for removal then start it all again spring to mind.

[EDDIE51]

I would like to ask why certain members are allowed to constantly post questions that are blatantly racist ?

[Zacs-Master]

Ah, now I see. Well, I've no idea why you couldn't have clarified what you thought in your OP rather than having the thread pulled.

Where's your evidence that they were black?

[THECORBYLOON]

I suggest that if you want to debate, you re-post in News. The Blog is not the place to argue the rights and wrongs of your opinions.

I didn't realise it was Groundhog Day.......

TCL, nobody plays with him nicely in News
The likes of us have no valid opinion to offer

Pretty sure there are white faces in the 'crowd' of protesters here:

///These mobs don't do anything to foster good relations with certain ethnic minorities. ///

That's a pretty mangled sentence...

The 'mobs' - mainly black and criminal, in your opinion, AOG.
'certain ethnic minorities' - mainly black and/or criminal, in your opinion, AOG.

So, these 'black criminals' don't do anything to foster good relations with 'black(s) and/or criminals'.

[Zacs-Master]

More importantly, how do you know their 'ethnic'?

We seem to be back at the argument we had a few days ago where it was evident that you don't believe someone can be black and as British as you or I.

[Zacs-Master]

They're (sorry).

[albaqwerty]

YOU are the one who has started it again AOG, re-post if you feel the need, but what on earth are 'certain ethnic minorities?'
