Vietnamese? Chinese? Thai?

Mr Gibbs said: "The complainant said they were arguing because the defendant was being objectionable about Asian people, which is odd because they're both Asian."
Are they? Are they really?

We aren't given the name of the victim, which is odd, because he was 20, but the attacker was Anwar Shah. 

Doesn't sound very Mongolian or Korean to me...
In mitigation, Jacqui Callan said Shah was a promotions manager and events organiser, with contracts across the UK.
That's mitigation...?
Miss Callan added: "He was horrified when watching his actions on the screen and struggled to comprehend it as he's someone who trains others in city nightclub environments not to behave in this way."
I guess he got the 'Do' and 'Do Not' columns mixed up?

Not odd at all. Hierarchies exist within all cultures although to slag off your own kind these days is seen as being a "race-traitor".

Ahhhh the hypocrisy and idiosyncracy of "Diversity". Cases like this only go to show TPTB will NEVER be able to force us all to accept each other unconditionally.

Don't think many who subscribe to the caste system in India or Pakistan would agree & neither would those from the sub-continent who're less than tolerant of Africans, West Indians, Somalis etc ..

Diversity and multi-culti are very much akin to More's "Utopia" or Communism .. look good on paper but when confronted by the realities of life, it quickly becomes clear that they can't and don't work ..

It is very possible (from the names) That the first is a Hindu while t'other (Shah) is a muslim. This despite goin' out clubbin' is haram, innit. There is enough historic visceral hatred there to cover any assault.

Will we ever see 'mitigation' that admits they deserve everything they get?

No, I thought not.

Doesn't stop them trying!

It's a strong possibility.
