And Once We Welcomed Refugees

[bainbrig]

Shocking story of Islamophobia/bullying/anti-refugee bone-headedness, not yet mentioned in these columns.

A reminder in case you need one:

All this Syrian family want is to live their lives in peace, all their children want is to go to school, in peace.

Once upon a time refugees were welcomed here.

‘the bullying has been exploited by its victims for personal gain’. How so?

And there’s a video of the assault so the context is very clear.

Hang about. I'm in the playground and i'm being ganged up on by two school kid bullies, Danny and Bainbrig.

"Please, Miss, help me out".

[Zacs-Master]

Vestry has lost the plot again.

[Zacs-Master]

C’mon, how has the victim gained from the situation?

[vetuste_ennemi]

"Can you arrange access to to a human rites lawyer?"

And would it make it more likely if I converted to Islam?

[Zacs-Master]

What are you talking about dear. Bit early to be half way down a bottle of Gordon’s, isn’t it (which is the only explanation I can see for your unsubstantiated and incoherent ramblings).

VE as usual when asked a straight question you answer by being facetious. Please answer the posts by ZM and myself.

[vetuste_ennemi]

Not facetious because I wouldn't readily argue my point of view with people who disagreed with me. Wipe the sneer from your face and I will happily discuss any of these issues with you.

If Im facetious it may be because of my contempt for some posters.

[Zacs-Master]

Well, tell us how the victim has gained then and why the context is ambiguous when there’s a video of the bullying?

[dannyk13]

VE, where did I post that I disagreed with you? I asked you a straight and honest question as to the source of your post.I find your last post offensive.

[Zacs-Master]

It’s Vestry’s usual MO when he’s made a tit of himself, Danny.

[vetuste_ennemi]

£120,000.
Incident six months ago.
Big boy beats up little boy in playground.
Video shows incident, but not context. (What happened before and led up to...).

Do you get the point?

[dannyk13]

VE . yes I get the point, you are Islamaphobic. Th eincident you quoted is not the one under discussion so you just posted an assumption om your part.

[Zacs-Master]

Are you talking about the crowdfunding? If so, the money was raised as a compassionate response to his bullying by the general public.

As for the video not showing the context, are you suggesting he deserved the attack due to an unseen incident prior to it? If so, that would seem to be pure speculation on your part.

[vetuste_ennemi]

Your best friend is a lost cause, Danny. Do you value honesty?

If so I 'd happily discuss this case, although I don't know any of the real facts about it any more than the rest of us. But I suspect some degree of contrivance. Don't you?

[dannyk13]

VE, I am not going to discuss this matter any further with you.

[Zacs-Master]

I think your alone in your suspicions, Vestry. I think your racism has swayed your views. I think you should stop now as you’re looking a bit daft!

[vetuste_ennemi]

//VE . yes I get the point, you are Islamaphobic//

I did ask you if you valued honesty, Danny.

Please expain "Islamaphobia" to me, and why you think I'm guilty of it.

[vetuste_ennemi]

I do apologise, Danny: it's quite early in the morning and those questions are quite tough, aren't they?

[Old_Geezer]

Zacs, those in your link are economic immigrants not refugees. One needs to distinguish between the two. I still suspect zero refugees arriving here in the last week.
