Woman Arrested For 'Racist' Rant On Tram

I can't believe she was arrested. I don't see this as a big deal. I have heard people way worse than this.
People are over senseitive.

I love how the other Brit lady told her to shut the **** up! I feel bad for the little kid having to grow up with a mother like that. Drugs are bad folks

"Your not British...your black!" That was funny, and i'm not even racist! I definately do not agree with her language, and the way she expressed herself at all. Being arrested though......I'm not so sure on that one. I'm going to watch again, and see if I can form an opinion on this one. BRB.

There is a big difference between speaking out against the government and verbally attacking someone because of their race, religion, sexual preferences etc.

Freedom of speech is great, but it shouldn't give people the freedom to insult others and make their lives uncomfortable.

Then handle it yourself? Give it to her right back! Why go running to the government every time someone says something we don't like?

Nobody was running to the government, the law was already in place, besides, the people on the tram were "giving it back", well, defending against her.

Hey yo,lol british women are wild. I used to love them so much, always a good time, when i was stationed over in Germany i'd ride the ICE to amsterdam met me some bad ass chicks went ahead and married one. But no man she probably shouldnt be arrested but she was deffenitly looking for a fight. If i was her boy friend i would have been telling her to STFU cuz i would have been the one having to fight because of her loud mouth. It happens what can you do

Even though she is indigenous to London she should be deported to Australia in the 1800s or some 21st century equivalent for such comments against the huge numbers of immigrants who are saturating her community.

If one lives in London one must accept the multi-cultural society even though there was no referendum on the issue. She should move with the times.

As I always say...


Freedom of speech stops when hate speech starts


And it's true, you don't have the right to verbally abuse someone because of any prejudice you may have about them, you don't have the right to get on public transport or go into a public place and just start spewing filth like that.

We wouldn't have a civilised country very long if we all just went around saying whatever we liked whenever we felt like it.

stupid meth addicts. clearly she isnt a decent responsible mother.

shes lucky those women didnt beat her to the ground, i swear meth creates the biggest problems on this planet.

I wonder what people would do if we could suddenly read each others minds and communicate telepathically. What sort of control would we have over other peoples thoughts then?

Your right man, she was deff a ballsy chick. Im not into all the rasict stuff my brother went to the pen and hes always going on about it, man one time when my bro first got out he chased a black guy clear across the parking lot because he had a white girl friend. Honestly it was pretty stupid of him to do but really funny, but i personally dont date outside of my race im just not attracted to ethnic women at all. I dont belive in overt discrimination or instituionalized hatred but whatever to each his own, glad old girl didnt get beat up.

No decent, civil human being should have any thoughts they would need to be worried about.

Racism, hate, bigotry, antisemitism, homophobia etc etc etc should have been left behind in the 20th century, and we should do our best to ensure future generations don't think like that. A good start would be not shouting that sort of unacceptable claptrap on public transport in front of ones own child and others children.

Hilarious....


Take it within the context of my post.... the point is that if everyone just went around saying crap like this stupid moron did, the world would not be a very civil or nice place.

But not to worry, that's why we have laws to stop these kinds of pond scum going around and abusing our citizens.

My guess is she was on the Tram for too long and was jonesin for another line of the white stuff. That chick was obviously messed up on something. And shame on her for talking like that in front of her child. Anyone notice how it didn't bother the child one bit? Because she's probably a dumb bit*h like that all of the time. She shouldn't have been arrested for speaking her mind. She should have been arrested for the blow she most likely had in her purse.

hey man, if, if's and but's were candy and nuts we'd all have a merry christmas.

My response copied from a repeat thread:

The extreme far right has certainly been gaining ground in England, with the English Defense League springing up and exploding with members. However, it seems like the same thing which has gone on for years in the US, where there are lazy white people who are mad at all the blacks for being lazy, and lazy black people who are mad at all the whites for being lazy. Truth is, both extreme sides are the same... STUPID! Most of you know my stance fervently defending social aide programs, because they really are important for those who need them. Which is why instead of cuts to those programs, I propose overall cultural change to curb the problems.

PS
I forgot to mention, don't include Scotland, Wales, or North Ireland in this, because honestly, this has been mostly an English problem...

Are you actually being serious? I think things all the time that I wouldn't do/say. You can't tell me you never think ill of someone, or have unacceptable terms pop into your head on occasion. You're not Jesus.

I agree... I think we all have thoughts that we wouldn't be proud of and we all think things that we certainly wouldn't repeat... but It's when we act on these things or verbalise them, that it becomes an issue.

Nobody wants thought police or to limit anyone's own opinions or beliefs.

If people want to hate any race... then fine, do it... no problem, have all kinds of Nazi crap at home... do whatever you want.... just do not then go out into the world and allow those views to affect anyone else.

Simple.

Before you all get too high and mighty.

I know this lady. She under treatment and is a loverly lady and a good mother but as with others with her condition she has episodes.

So you can try to make mischief to promote some personal hatreds by using someone that is unwell and the outrage some are billowing out here about the child. There a a good few versions out there now where the childs face is not blurred out including the one here and that is the biggest disgrace of all.

Her husband is having a bad enough time as it is and all the uninformed bile being spat out is no different to her outburst. She is ill, what's your excuse?

Another good reason to not arrest people for talking. What about a kid with touerettes that says the N word all the time. Arrested.
