Is most knife crime in BRITAIN caused by black people ?

Question

im not being racist but the news suggests it

Answer 1

Yes, i agree it is in the bigger cities in England. and you're not being racist speaking the truth. The reason for this is that a lot of blacks in big cities have been brought up to have a huge chip on their shoulders.. they form gangs to make themselves look tougher. the majority of clubs started to bring kids off the streets in the inner cities, and find them a purpose in life, such as song and dance  have a  95% black attendance.

And of course the inner Glasgow area has white on white knife crime! there area lot less blacks in Scotland than there are in England if you compare to Bradford, Bury, Birmingham, London, Bolton etc.

the only way to stop this is for the government to get a lot tougher on gun and knife crime. too much molly coddling goes on nowadays. make our jails and the sentences more like USA.   take back the  birch and hanging. and dont give me the drivel its not a deterrent. it is!!  crime and bad behaviour in schools in UK has rocketed since corporal punishment was banned.

dont smack, dont strap, dont hurt the poor wee things. see where im coming from.....................? they must laugh in the face of the law!!

Answer 2

Of course most of the knife crime is down to the black youths gang culture in London suburbs & other cities.

Racist or not, truth is truth & someone has to tell it!

Answer 3

I don't have that impression.

Answer 4

Do bears p**p in the woods? Is the Pope Catholic? I could go on.

Answer 5

Well the news does suggest this and according to the news we hear no one is disputing it yet. It seems to get worse each day, and one does wonder why they have to revert to carrying them        as they sure as h**l will use them. It should be made a criminal offence, but according to Court Reports on these cases the sentence is sometimes pathetic, and hardly a punishment for the killer. More Police are need in the Areas where this is most prevalent, to send a message that this will not be tolerated in British Isles, and anyone caught will get an automatic sentence to go to prison. Something has to be done before it becomes an epidemic.

Answer 6

Yep, seems so. Not all, but most are.

Answer 7

i don't think so...the wicked sods that killed the two lovely young french students last week...were white!!  i think there is just as much crime committed by whites as there is blacks...sadly!!

Answer 8

Just a very sick and twisted world we live in, doesnt matter what colour the skin is, its the dark twisted personality underneath.

Answer 9

dont think so.

Answer 10

Black gangs have a lot to do with the drug relates crimes and if that's a racist remark so be it.There should be more stop and searches and anyone caught with a weapon whether a knife or gun should be automatically birched. 10 of the best would put these cowards off I think

Answer 11

No, they commit knife crimes disproportianately. It's not the same thing.

Answer 12

Out of interest, what does that suggest to you about the tabloid media and this country in general?

Look up crime stats if you are intersted, you will find the press are wrong (as of course happens often)

Answer 13

yes.  They seem to be the ones with the guns and drugs too ......... I live in Nottingham, where many such crimes have taken place

Answer 14

I would like to see the figures published for deaths and injuries in relation to the ethnicity of the perpetrator.

What is racist about that. It may say that its not all black/asian people as seemingly portrayed in the newspapers and how many are immigrants legal or illegal.

If u can be asked when filling in forms for yr ethnicity then surely we the public should know about the ethnicity of the perpetrators of knife crime.

I just want to know the facts! not the PC version.

Answer 15

NO. Its by MALES stupid young males of all races

Answer 16

thats the bbc for you,they tell the uk all about news in london,but the rest of the uk can go get lost,still they forget it was a scotsman who invented tv and a fat tory english lord to charge the poor for a licence

after all it was the bbc who gave us da black and white minstrtel shows

its all those middle class tossers who blame it on the unemployed and blacks,the same lot who work at the bbc

Answer 17

The only thing the news suggests that is plausible,is that black youths are the predominant victims of knife crime.That however, is in London.You would have to provide evidence to show the media suggests that black youths are the perpetrators.

Scotland has had a knife culture for years, especially in inner-city areas and,as Shambo says, it is white on white.

Answer 18

No, if fact a white woman was arrested too for one of the stabbing murders,

Problem is the Parent's I am sorry but I do think that they have no control over their kids.

We should have a curfew until eighteen and like America stop the drinking culture by upping the age limit, or shoot this damned Government for allowing pubs and bars to stay open longer than they should, drinking and drugs seem to be at the bottom of all these stabbings, it really is getting worse.

Answer 19

Does seem to be the case. It certainly IS the case in London. And since when has the truth been racist? How can people say that such crime is committed equally? Just take a look at the photos/names of those involved!

Pretending that black lads are not more prone to knife/gang crime isn't going to make the facts less real, neither will we be able to turn things around until we acknowledge the truth. We must accept that there is a major problem with a certain section of the black community, and try to discover why it is so, maybe then we can begin to change things.

Answer 20

Sorry, but anyone who starts sentences with "I'm not a racist, but..." is just trying to excuse their racist remarks in advance. Your previous question too suggests that at BEST you are remarkably pre-occupied with race.

In answer to your question, I would need to see statistics before I could comment.

Answer 21

And if it is, then what? Or are "black" people not British citizens? Knife crime affects every citizen, regardless of how much melanin they have in their skin. What is your solution?

Answer 22

no.  it's caused by all sorts of raving looneys, black, white, anyone.

Answer 23

taboo subject matey!!!

Answer 24

don't know about that but i'm getting pig sick of all these senseless killings.it's time for this government to start handing out messages that can put a stop to it. too many do gooders ensure that criminals don't suffer in prison like they should do. the families of those that were murdered will suffer for the rest of their lives.

Answer 25

Why is it taboo,the facts dont lie.

Answer 26

knife crime is generally caused by black people. i heard a list of names of the 5 people killed yesterday and the names were not the names of white people. i agree there are sometimes white people knifed but it is mostly black gangs of drug related criminals.
