Don't post on here often, but read it every day. Can't sit by and watch @Ozanne getting picked on for doing little other than make a polite 'point of order' request without my saying something. F

Obviously horrible news. But I think pointing the finger at Rayner is not only unfair to her, but also serves to help silence critics of the Tories. Don't forget that over the years, BJ's words h

Man I'm furious. He's not remotely apologetic. Look at his face while Starmer is talking. I've tried to avoid taking this too personally but my mum died in hospital last summer and I wasn't allow

 Is it normal to be living in fear over in Sweden over the police stopping you because of the color of your skin? Is it normal that the police will shoot first and ask questions later? Is it normal that police are not held accountable in your country? If the answer is no, THEN SHUT THE FUCK UP RIGHT NOW. This guy along with countless others deserve whats coming to them for what theyve done. It shouldnt have to be this way and all of us shouldnt have to be cheering this much over one small victory. 

Wanna tell me this person below doesnt deserve actual justice?
 


 

I wonder how happy George's brother pink s at the conviction.

I know its an emotive subject and I can understand when people, as expressed above by others, are relieved that there was no miscarriage of justice - but gloating over an individual 'getting what they deserve' doesn't sit right with me, ever really. Like cheering when Bin Laden died or something. It just ain't my thing. But maybe I'm the weird one!

Not sure you can call it gloating....more like a massive relief.

I wonder if this would have gone to court and the same conviction if his murder had not been caught on camera? Probably not.

I'm not the person you quoted, but I'm not sure those things are comparable. I'm against the death penalty, so when Bin Laden was killed I wasn't like "oh good, he deserved that, justice has been done".

Chauvin "deserves" to not get away with murder. And he hasn't. I don't think anyone is gloating about that, as Stevie said it's relief. The system isn't quite as fucked up as it could have been.

We have similar with manslaughter.

Exactly. But a key point to prove for murder in our legal system is intent or premeditation. Seems to be absent in the US version. And they have their own manslaughter offences.

The day your family suffers a loss and justice is not served I will be gloating over the person who did it to you because you obviously have zero issue with a terrorist being removed from this planet. So fuck you.

Fuck sakes not this tit again. Every time he gets dragged into the Leeds courts his neanderthal followers come out in protest and shut down the city centre usually vastly outnumbered by the police who have to divert their time from an already busy schedule to babysit them.

I know this is probably coming from a good place but come on mate we shouldn't ever gloat over someone losing a loved one.

Yep, just checked Binface’s manifesto. Certainly would get my vote.

It ain’t healthy to hate so much. You’ll get an ulcer! An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind and all that

If anything it's a bit embarrassing for Binface.
