On The Second Day Of Christmas, Multiculturalism Gave To Me...

...the concept of victim perception of racism.
Grieving Julia Brewer insisted the attack on her son Danny O'Shea by a group of black men was NOT racially motivated.

Danny, dubbed a "gentle giant" by pals, was knifed in the neck.

Julia said: "He was a popular boy with friends from all cultural backgrounds. We are devastated but do not want to see any retribution."
Strangely, this doesn't seem to work the other way around...

    "Grieving Julia Brewer insisted the attack on her son Danny O'Shea by a group of black men was NOT racially motivated."

    Blinded by grief, or sock puppet-ed by the kermoonitty liaison officer. Take yer pick.

    Is it not possible that Julia has been told "you're next" if she says the wrong thing.

    Danny O'Shea, one of those who got left behind.

    Now that you mention it... ;)

    "Are the partridges taking to the wing?"

    Would probably have been safer if they had!

    "Danny O'Shea, one of those who got left behind."

    Sad thing is, he's not alone...

    Edgar, I agree. But if I had my way the return tickets would not be available.

    In other multi-culti news, a relative of mine works as an elf in a Santa grotto where she sees a number of muslim kiddies eager to see Santa though she avoids wishing them all a merry Christmas for fear of causing them to wonder what merriment might actually be.

    I think there is a gulf of misunderstanding between what these bereaved parents are saying, and the way it is being interpreted.
    They can not possibly know at this stage, what motivated the murderer who killed their son.

    I suspect what they mean, is that their son would have offered no racial provocation to his attacker, because racism was not in his nature.

    Whether the murderer was driven by racism is an entirely different issue, which will only become apparent during prosecution.
