That doesn't make it any less racist!

But please give some more details on that. The only case I've heard about was a single attacker who was incorrectly called an immigrant.

It adds context which people who manipulate the overtone window for political games and name calling like to exclude.

The person was a immigrants child. Considering there obvious (violent) refusal to integrate they are too an immigrant.

  • It's completely bonkers to have retaliation like that against a single attack that isn't part of a pattern.

    Like, that context arguably makes it worse than if there was no inciting incident, because it's so blatantly blaming a huge group for one person.

To bring up more things in the broader context, were there not several "grooming gangs" that were active in Britain recently and the police were reluctant to investigate/prosecute them as it might appear racist?

  • Police were reluctant to investigate celebrity grooming gangs, Rolf Harris, Jimmy Saville, Gary Glitter, Huw Edwards, Russell Brand, etc.

    Police were reluctant to investigate political grooming gangs, those in the House of Lords, nobility, etc.

    Police were reluctant to investigate religuous grooming gangs, Christian Brothers ets.

    I can't see how immigrant pedos are infinity worse rather than just more of the same.

    The reluctance to investigate seems to be the issue, now it's compounded by scapegoating.

    • there are literal no go zones the police will not touch out of fear. If you can't figure out how law less zones and being socially untouchable could make doing crimes easier and harder to prevent, then there is nothing that could convince you.
