I wonder why we didn't hear about on UK news.

That guy (the one posting the video) sure has one single agenda.

Yeah, I've just had a look at his profile.

Still, news like this makes you (or me in any case) what the hell is going on. I shoud've posted in on the Tottenham riots thread so mods feel free to merge/delete.

That's true. The main problem with this item - no context.

Well the context is pretty clear (am I going to get whooshed?). I'm just wondering why hundreds of black youths suddenly feel that they should beat up random white people.

The reporting of the event is quite clear - the context isn't.

But if the question is should anyone beat on anyone else because of the colour of their skin ... of course not.

What's anyone's agenda got to do with the original story? Unless of course you are an apologist for black on White violence.

Not much of a story, though. No footage, no real details. Why would the UK cover this?

That's a fair comment Willy. Maybe I spend too much time reading the American press. It could, however, have an influence on the upcoming US elections.

If that happened in the UK the BBC would still somehow manage to cover it up or distort the truth to suit its liberal apologist agenda.
