Because of one race's use of claims of persecution and discrimination as a means by which to distract attention away from their own, natural faults, foibles and defects.

Dude, claims stop being claims once their substantiated with evidence. They become a little something that is known as facts! Many bigots that love to discriminate don't like their actions being brought to light. Even after everything MLK sacrificed, we still have conservative fallacies being presented...

So explain what natural faults, foibles and defects caused this man to be denied entry onto a train after he paid his fare?


I'll wait.

The people on that train, and the crowd on the platform didn't seem to fit this description at all. We are, afterall, talking about one of the most multicultural capitals in Europe.

Your point is not proven.

Haha. The conservative Tory party is far more liberal than the Democrats in the USA. Furthermore their majority only holds because they made a coalition with the Liberal Democrats. You are thinking UKIP.

American's really have no idea what a true leftist party might be. Beyond a few social wedge issues, there is essentially no difference between the Democrats and the GOP.

That's great news for the million or so massacred in Rwanda. We just have to stamp out white surpremacy because only white people cause racism, ethnic cleansing etc.

Oh please. Are you trying to tell me that that polite, clean-cut man really, really wanted to get into that car full of rowdy drunks? He appears much too intelligent and well-bred. And it's obvious that there's very little room left in that car.

The whole situation looks like one of those "games people play."

Him: I'm going to try to get on the most crowded, noisiest car on the train and if they stop me I'm going to claim racism.

Them: We're going to gang up on this guy and give him a dose of what he's asking for because we're drunk and stupid and we don't give a damn.

Most of us have encountered similar situations on the playground as kids. When adults do it it can create some dangerous situations.
