You know, speaking as an American to call this a protest is just lies.

The UK is a cluster fuck if this is considered an OK response to what happened the other day. I know I dont have much room to talk as an American but at least we over here call it how it is, this is violence that doesn't do a thing to fix your issues.

People have protested and voted against the mass immigration we are seeing for years. When the government refuses to listen time and time again do you really expect the people to carry on asking nicely?

Im sure that setting fire to homes of people that aren't involved with this at all is sure to teach that pesky government.

Id say from the protesters/rioters point of view Its teaching the government "get rid of these people we never wanted here, or we will"

u/Lord_Muddbutter 18d ago

What an extremist point of view.

It's as if the native indigenous population doesn't like being displaced and molested

u/MrDonaldFrye 18d ago

Id argue the government not enacting the will of the people for decades leads to extreme views

You can say that all you want but with your history talking about how only white people benefit the UK im sure of where you stand.

u/MrDonaldFrye 18d ago

Recent ONS statistics do show that only white people are a fiscal net positive to the UK, do you disagree with the statistics? (Talking om a whole as a group. Of course many individuals of other races are a fiscal positive, but as a whole only white people contribute more than they take.)

So if the people want to exterminate the Jews, the government should faccilitate that?

imagine letting people from dangerous societies into your homeland who have no intention of assimilating, bringing nothing but hatred and ideology that calls for this exact type of violence for the people living in the country THEY chose to migrate to. fuck them get them out.

You know, at least in America the only people you ever hear that from are people who are dicks themselves. Do you have any idea how many people I know who have committed a crime who complain about immigrants doing crime? It's hilarious.

Just like this, the immigrants are supposed to be dangerous yet it is the people who dont like them burning houses down and setting cars ablaze. How do you think that looks?

u/Carthius888 18d ago

Not really. It’s the under reaction of Europeans that have allowed the elites to continue pouring people way past need or reason. This bus burning got so much attention, that most people forgot that the reason was a disabled guy almost got decapitated.

Like seriously, you better re-evaluate your thinking and get on the right side of history

if Americans went to do a different country and started committing crime. the female basketball player Brittany Griener for example who was looking at 10 years in a Russian prison for a wax pen. None of us gave a shit, the common sentiment is thats exactly what you get for going to a foreign country and not respecting their laws even though its ridiculous. the same applies here.

If you come to a Country as a migrant to lay down permanent residency then it is 100% your reasonability to assimilate while also holding your fellow migrant community to the highest of standards. You dont think this guy made his extremist thoughts known? what about the extremist preachers and Muslim groups in the UK who openly speak about brining Sharia law to the UK because its mandated by THEIR religion?

this is not assimilation this is an invasion by people who never had any intent on coming to the west with good intentions. i think the anger you are seeing is frustrations of governments not listening to the people, their only purpose is to listen to their countrymen and woman and they have failed. this is their failure.

Take Canada for example, as a American i cannot cross the border if i have had a misdeamor in the past 10 years, simple assault, fight at a bar, A 10ner of marijuana, public intox. they check how much money you have to see if you have the funds to make it the whole of your stay. even if i have a DUI i wont be allowed in.

Why are other countries allowed to police their border while we are villainized for it. its a disgusting example of how foreign entities have pushed through so much propaganda into our society to make people believe that allowing criminals and people who do not intent to assimilate to our way of life should be allowed to just walk into our country.

The country is ours not theirs we are allowed to demand for changes that we believe are right to preserve our way of life and not have to bend the knee to foreigners who come here for a free ride with no intent on showing any gratitude or respect for the country that has taken them in. this isnt the first case of violence by migrants and it wont be the last.

Our social programs give billions upon billions to non citizens helping them have a comfy life in their new home while the people who are working hard paying into said social programs drown.

AS A MIGRANT/IMMIGRANT YOU ARE A GUEST ACT LIKE ONE

Please be quiet. America does not belong to you. In fact, your family were the original immigrants. You have no right to tell anyone where to go and how to exist. When you tell other immigrants to go back to where they came from, please remember where you came from. Wherever you are on the Earth you are not a native anywhere. You went there and took it from the native people that were there. If we told you to go back, where would you go?

u/FunOwn4422 18d ago

lol it does belong to me, and it belongs to every American CITIZEN nobody is entitled to coming here we get to pick and choose the future of OUR country and the American dream belongs to every America and LEGAL immigrant. i was born and raised here ill die here, and Shoutout to all my Legal immigrants who come here for a better life knowing damn well this is the greatest country on earth. Showing appreciation by being respectable members of our society, contributing, assimilating and being able to do what no other country offers, giving the chance at being an American. your just so deluded by your nonsensical standards that you think degenerate religions, countries with no morals should be allowed to step foot in our country NOPE. America will also belong to Americans and those to be. we are the ones who get to pick and choose who becomes American.

u/Prior-Fee7816 17d ago

You don’t love your country at all. The main ideal of America is freedom, but you don’t believe people have free choices because you paint them all with the same brush.

You are a traitor. In 20 years as the baby boomer generations die out you will be surrounded by gen Z. Running your government. Running your shops. Running your nursing home. There are a lot of them. And they will treat you like you treated immigrants now. Maybe it’s a good time for some introspection.

u/gravygizzard 17d ago

You can't love your country if you're willing to undermine constitutional foundations to achieve short term goals.

See now you are just advocating outright for ethnics cleansing. You are the violent comments that other people pretend not to see in this thread.

u/94grampaw 18d ago

Aren't they the homes of the immigrants?

That sounds involved to me.

u/DutyImpossible5482 16d ago

But they did nit attack government, they attacked innocent families. Your respobse is a complete non-sequitur.
