[MellySingsDoom]

Louise Mensch is coming out with some right blather on Twitter right now

@RoryMacKinnon
Regardless of #Duggan verdict, know that of 1476 deaths since 1990 following contact with UK cops, just 13 cases were found unlawful killing

 

[ddraig]

the press/bbc are salivating and want someone to kick off, savages obv

let's all sing along to the tv now

Ignore her.

 

[Dan U]

Louise Mensch is blather

edited for you, as it's all she does.

i think as she is now on to her third internet venture (previous 2 failed) she is desperate for attention still.

 

[MellySingsDoom]

For the record, I'd usually ignore Louise Mensch full stop, but this set me off:

MellySingsDoom ‏@MellySingsDoom 3m
@LouiseMensch @PennyRed @HackneyAbbott What are you talking about? He had the gun nowhere near him! For crying out loud.

Well there's a surprise.

She pissed off a large section of the feminist population on twitter recently, she's clearly after a new target.

Think you missed out a tweet or two in your post Melly?

Don't carry a gun. Don't carry a knife. Don't risk your life as well as others'. Labour MPs like @HackneyAbbott totally out of touch #Duggan

Laurie Penny ‏@PennyRed 15m
@LouiseMensch @HackneyAbbott Louise, you're blaming #duggan for the fact the police shot him. You're way out of order. Reprehensible.

Louise Mensch ‏@LouiseMensch 13m
.@PennyRed @HackneyAbbott yes, I am, #Duggan is wholly to blame for fact the police shot him, as he was carrying a gun. Not police's fault.

Quite literally. She has ADHD.

A crowd of protestors has gathered outside the court chanting - no justice, no peace, fuck the police. #duggan

R5 just pulled Family's press conference outside court.

Said they would record it.

One quite perceptive response to the idiot Mensch:

Adrian Short ‏@adrianshort 15m @LouiseMensch @PennyRed @HackneyAbbott What happens if armed criminals get the idea that police will shoot them even if they surrender?

 

[butchersapron]

Two things to deal with here: 1) he was killed offering no threat - police murdering, 2) a dick with a gun as part of wider anti-social crime stuff. We're going to have to deal with both if we're serious.

Now having to tell listeners this is not censorship, "it's for legal reasons".

Laurie Penny ‏@PennyRed 36s
I'm seeing people say 'he was in a gang' 'he fathered many children' 'he had a criminal record' - as if ANY OF THAT justifies murder #duggan

 

[Barking_Mad]

Quite literally. She has ADHD.

I bet she doesn't.

 

[MellySingsDoom]

Without coming across as a hippie, my thoughts are with the Duggan family right now - I can't even begin to comprehend what they must be feeling at this "verdict".

 

[ddraig]

'angry scenes' no shit

Now having to tell listeners this is not censorship, "it's for legal reasons".

it's because the uppity people in the background were doing the ditty "no justice no peace, fuck the police"

 

[DotCommunist]

yeah right, they've been told to not broadcast it in case of riots

 

[Tankus]

Unarmed man lawfully killed ?....….is this what the met call a Brazilian defense .........?

 

[TopCat]

'angry scenes' no shit

it's because the uppity people in the background were doing the ditty "no justice no peace, fuck the police"

That's the real reason.

tbh it's a) a class thing - harry stanley, mark duggan, working class men in east london - no attempt to resolve either situation peacefully. b) it's police murder - THEY set up a position in which the copper who killed MD was going to shoot, was frankly conditioned to expect to see a gun, sealing MD's fate. c) if this was to do with crime then they'd have set up a better op e.g. the traditional knock on the door in the morning.
