Woman Arrested For 'Racist' Rant On Tram

If I was born in a different country I too would want to bring up my kid's in Briton, it's a great place
Also many of the people who come here want the same as we want for our kid's a decent education, health care etc
I know many people who have moved here because of this and they all work hard and pay taxes.
Remember people love their kid's just as we do so want the best for them.

Seriously, I'm pretty sure... watch it a few times.

OK, I just listened again, and I think you were right the first time. I should have listened again before I opened my mouth lol.

LOL na man, nobody wants to think the worst, but she was definitely about to.... but she managed to stop herself, I think even SHE knew that would be too far.

Shame she didn't have such control when she started spewing her crap.

No, you missed my point. OP in that thread condemned the women. OP in this thread didn't think she should have gotten arrested and thought what she did was just free speech.

Edit - also OP's title put "Racist" in quotations in the thread title implying that the rant was not racist, when it obviously was.

edit on 28-11-2011 by CREAM because: (no reason given)

You're right, I apologise... I did miss your point.
You're actually spot on... the "Racist" in this thread is definitely trying to say that the woman was not racist.

The OP is actually trying to defend her in the thread too.

Go figure, as they say

Not defending her either - I just thing a history lesson or two might have made her realise that people of all stock have at some point been responsible for developing Britain. Celts, Pagans, Romans, Saxons, etc etc and of course somebody should have mentioned that some of the bravest pilots in the skies above the world war II ravaged Europe and Britain were actually Polish. Also a nice reminder of the involvement of 'black people' and 'muslims' in defending Britain from fascism could probably help her out wonders too.

But instead I bet its fuelled by vicious media headlines, anxiety, possible 'hereditary racism' too, possibly from her parents and grandparents and manifested itself in her own fears, a self fulfilling personal nightmare, projected onto the rest of the passengers.

Who knows?

I don't know what these born and bred white Londoners are on about, personally. The only decent people I've come across in London have all been economic migrants, whether from Africa, Poland, Scotland or up North.

Native Londoners are a different kettle of fish - Rude, violent, vicious, hate filled and aggressive. Hand me a thesaurus and I'll give you 500 more words to describe born and bred "true British" Londoners.

London is the universal centre of hatred and venom. You could force a respected Buddhist to live in London for a year and he'll kill himself after a few weeks exposure to these people. It really is a revolting city inhabited by revolting people - save for all the economic migrants.

Worst of all is that all these racist Londoners -- especially crackheads and dole dossers like the woman in the video -- are infecting the rest of the UK. They've all got white flight and are moving up North in their droves, but we don't want them. Generally these Londoners bring a culture of benefits, alcoholism and crime with them.

In London they complain about Polish and Somalis - In the rest of the UK we'd happily trade in our Londoners for Poles and Somalis.

In answer to your question, yes, I would support your right, even in front of my friends and family, for you to say and be insulting to me. As long as you did not get violent, then I would not have a problem with such, as it is just words.

Well I have a hard time believing that, sorry.

But regardless of your feelings, people were obvioulsy upset by this woman's outburst. Not everyone is as stoic as you.

The first time I heard it, I thought that she said ''N*g-Africa'', but I think that she says N*ggeragua, as in a racist corruption of the country ''Nicaragua''.

While she's clearly ignorant, Nicaragua is not exactly a country which is associated with black people, so she was appeared to use a racist slur, but may well have attempted to correct herself in the process.

she directly threatened at least one passenger with physical harm ("F-- you; I f--in' dare you [to throw me off the tram]").

Actually I agree with you here. I missed that the first time I watched it. I f--ing dare you to throw me off the train could be taken as a threat. I'll concede that point.

Also have to give props to whoever (Sherlock something perhaps Holmes) for calling out that being obviously s-- faced in public with her child should be investigated.

More worried about offending someone than being able to speak your minds. Also, the majority of people from the UK seem to support having online 'bullies' arrested. Just a pathetic mess over there.

How long have you lived in the UK for. I spent 20 years in london and yes it has its problems but for the most people are very accepting and trusting and very inovotave.
The place meshes together in a mosaic of cultures. It is does not have the segragation problems of the US

but just why are all those foreigners here? A better life maybe? I suspect that's what she wants, her bills are going up,. She probably can't get adequate housing or she may feel alone in her own community, she may have been a victim of crime, she may once have loved her country , she may be wondering just how did it get like this, on a tram she can't afford surrounded by people talking in foreign languages, and then she considers her childrens future....... Who else is she going to blame?
The bilderburgs? Tony blair? Who else is responsible for her problems?

"Who else is responsible for her problems?"

Not innocent civilians. Plenty of blame to go around, but not on the working class people on the bus.

If you don't agree with immigration, FINE, but don't blame the civilians, blame the government and do something about it.

Racism is NOT the answer.

Is being silent the answer?
Maybe racism is the answer? Depends on the question.
Why are ,minorities over represented in the prison system? May the answer is racism?

words are words
let the b**ch ride

I don't know what these born and bred WHITE Londoners are on about, personally. The only decent people I've come across in London have all been economic migrants, whether from Africa, Poland, Scotland or up North.

Worst of all is that all these racist Londoners

Because it's impossible to be racist if you just hate white people.

She did not say anything worse than you would hear 100 time in your typical mainstream rap song, what's your big problem? The mind boggles it Realy does.

Fortunately the UK is also home of the "Love police" dude which gives me hope.

I'm white, I've suffered plenty of racism growing up in a largely Pakistani community. I wasn't saying or implying that non-whites aren't or can't be racist, my post was just poorly worded.

Plenty of born and bred black Londoners are racist. Hating Somalians is a favourite for the large black community in London.

We don't want any Londoners coming up North, white or black. Let me be clear on that. So any Black Londoners reading my post and getting the wrong idea, it's not your skin colour, we just don't like Londoners - So don't bother coming here

There's some great people in London, don't get me wrong... But none of them sport a London accent
