    It goes to show how unrepresentative Eastenders is.

    I thought Shameless was a reality show.

    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.

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.

    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. :
