Which again, counting up colour(yes I know a couple of you think I'm being a card carrying KKK racist) is 28 to 9 on those pictures, which on my count makes it 76%, 24%, which again points to disenfranchised blacks teenage gangers in London.
Go figure.

I think it depends on the area of town. Apparently, in Enfield it was a majority white crowd looting. However, I don't think it's racist per se to state facts if indeed most London looters are black. The interesting thing is the explanations people come up with to explain the correlation. These will no doubt range from a view that black people are genetically pre-disposed to lawlessness to a view that this lawlessness stems from alienation and that black people are more likely to be alienated due to the inherent racism of society. And plenty of views in between.Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostShop a Moron (The Sun).

The correlation is that in london gangs are mostly black and were knocking over clothes shop and shoe shops. If you look at Salford the crowd was mostly white and looked like the actors from Shameless and knocked over the off license and Mrs Selfridges.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostI think it depends on the area of town.

Many views indeed. The big problem with the acceptable viewpoint on this issue is that wherever you look in the world you are grasping at very thin straws to try and support it.bloggoth

It goes to show how unrepresentative Eastenders is.Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostThe correlation is that in london gangs are mostly black and were knocking over clothes shop and shoe shops.

I thought Shameless was a reality show.
Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment
