Surely it's their stated cause that is under debate, not mode of dress.

Didn't the lad they beat up have his baseball cap on back to front?

You laugh, I worked at a place for a while where the boss would sack anyone found to be eating a burger at lunchtime (off premises included)

With a name like yours I bet you were proper fcked!

Hence my question.

I ignored any of their stupid rules, and carried on invoicing

Why do you say that?

Would it be different if they wore paramilitary uniforms?

What, the Rangers fans? Not really, a self-appointed uniform is a self-appointed uniform I guess.

Obviously one can't trust the reporting because it's a Murdoch paper, but if it is in fact the case that the police haven't classed it as a hate crime (whatever that means: pretty sure the legal term is different) because they attacked him for being "not from around here", surely that's contradictory?

But as the source is a Murdoch paper it's very hard to know what to think, as all of the circumstances are undoubtedly wildly different from what was published.

For those jumping on the "I'm not racist but" bandwagon: my local police force categorises crimes as involving racial hatred ("hate crimes" in Murdoch-lackeyspeak) when the victims are White British and the perpetrators are not, and the racial difference has been a contributory factor in the crime. If the Met won't do so, that's down to them, not to the law of the land, so you can stop feeling so put upon for being in a privileged majority.
