Just one example of many and another off the top of my head

I do remember while there were some cases of teens killing people in the 2000’s, they were few and far between, now it’s like you got to watch out for teens rather than adults and there’s a very potent hazard of being killed by a pack.

What happened? it doesn’t seem to be affecting one area of the UK either but most places of the UK at once. what’s going on with British teens?

    Because it is

    Correct but it affects london disproportionately and I’m probably not allowed to explain why

      If you’re going to bring race into it, the cases off the top of my head, including in the cases i linked involved white people…

        Race is the reason, though. As in: crime has been going down for years, but if we pretend it’s going up and it’s caused by black people, they’ll vote for us (Reform, AfD, CDU, Republicans, PVV, etc).

            Caught what? You can’t just call people racist for no reason and lob downvotes at them.

            Puni’s post history shows a pattern of trolling and time-wasting behaviour, therefore it seems to me they are just a troll.

              You use typical racist dog whistles to give yourself plausible deniability when you get caught because you know rational people reject your backwards ideas.

              Just own it, man. Just say you’re a racist or that you hate Arabs or Muslims or whatever it is you blame everything on. At least you’d be honest.
