Mass stabbing at Southport Kids’ Club 29/7/24

[Jammy smears]

Really saddened to hear about the loss of a third child.

 

[Spymaster]

Why are they reporting that his parents are Rwandan? Why not just that he's from Cardiff.

Nationality/ethnicity of perps is pretty much always reported. To not do so here would just be weird, especially given all the speculation over it.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Not a fan of the death penalty...but is hard to have share a planet with someone who does that. if this cunt at a later date wants these 'juvenile' offences to be looked on compassionately so he come come out on licence he can fuck right off. I don't know what replaced Broadmoor with but the sort of fucker that can do this should rightly expect to spend the rest of his life there

I don't get this reaction. Really don't. Would your attitude change if it were shown that he was experiencing an extreme psychotic episode?

His nationality is British/Welsh. The Rwandan heritage is added on to explain why he's black. It's common or garden racism.

There's a GoFundMe for the victims and their families, Swifties for Southport.

It’s not for the children and their families it’s for Alder Hey’s hospital.

Still a worthy cause and no doubt the children involved will benefit as a result of the donations.

But important to be accurate and clear about where donations are going to. Especially for those making donations.

It’s jumped from £57k to £102k in a few hours.

This is one of the ways people express their distress and concern and care. We can’t hug the people so we give money. Better than teddy bears with balloons attached imo.

“Where are you from…. but where are you really from…?”

 

[Silas Loom]

Why report that he has Rwandan heritage? To forestall fuckwitted Twitter Islamophobia, as Spymaster spotted earlier. That’s a good cause in which to disclose ethnicity.

 

[Petcha]

Yep. As soon as you the see the words 'Police are saying it's not terror related' you know its not the Muslims up to their old tricks

 

[Spymaster]

Would your attitude change if it were shown that he was experiencing an extreme psychotic episode?

Mine wouldn't. Not one bit.

It might excuse him the rope but no amount of handwringing will convince me that someone who does this should ever be let out of a secure facility.

 

[Ax^]

Yep. As soon as you the see the words 'Police are saying it's not terror related' you know its not the Muslims up to their old tricks

how the fuck are you still posting

jesus you know when they say it not terror related

the suspect must at least come off as white

Don't be daft. There's speculation all over the place about his nationality/colour/religion.

To not report what it correctly is, when confirmed, would be ridiculous, if only to to bolster the fact that it's not a terrorist incident.

 

[Spymaster]

I think there was a level of irony in Petcha's post.

You really are thick as two short planks aren't you.

 

[GarveyLives]

Condolences to the friends and family of nine-year-old Alice Aguiar who died in hospital today of the injuries that she sustained during the attack at Hart Street, Southport, yesterday morning.

hmm been a bit of a trump fan as of late it not out of character for the type now is it

 

[GarveyLives]

I don't think he was an asylum seeker? The BBC are saying he moved to Southport from Cardiff ten years ago and is originally from Rwanda. The fact that he's black will hopefully not inflame things further. But yeh, it will.

Nationality/ethnicity of perps is pretty much always reported. To not do so here would just be weird, especially given all the speculation over it.

Is the country from which the parents of the juvenile suspected of committing these terrible crimes came of particular importance to you or is it likely to be of any importance to the investigation of these crimes?

It's not of particular importance but it's certainly a point of interest, especially against the backdrop of SM speculation.

This is going to go down as one of the most heinous crimes in British history and he'll be as reviled as Huntley and Shipman. Nothing about the murdering cunt is off limits.

So if I did something, they'd report that my parents came from Scotland?

 

[bemused]

So sad. Why are people so awful.

 

[Thora]

They literally don't care. Every post about this on Threads has loads of comments saying he's actually an adult Syrian who arrived on a boat last year, the mainstream media is lying etc etc

 

[Yossarian]

If the suspect's neighbours had told reporters that the parents had moved to Britain from New Zealand or Norway, would it have been in the news? I think probably yes, but maybe not as prominently

To add to this, there is a sort of "you just can't win" in situations like this. It didn't happen in the middle of the night, and plenty of people have seen the guy. Is it better to withhold that information and let social media go absolutely apeshit conspiracy theory over refugees and migrants, or to just confirm "ya, he's ethnic Rwandan but born and raised in the UK", which will shut a lot (but not all, obviosuly) of that down?

Even if the best that can be done is to slow down the amplification of this shit, it’s still worth doing.

I thought Threads had better moderation than Musk’s hellhole, but doesn’t sound like it.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Yes.

 

[Sasaferrato]

Almost certainly not a Muslim then, which will disappoint some.

If there is no religious fuckwittery, then all one can assume is that the youth is unwell.

 

[Elpenor]

People with Scottish parents commit the vast majority of crime in Scotland, the government should do something about this!

 

[Chz]

Yes.

Because?

 

[BigMoaner]

If there is no religious fuckwittery, then all one can assume is that the youth is unwell.

Not necessarily, he could be out of his mind on all sorts of deranged shit that’s not just religious. Some extremist killers are very much not mentally ill, just full of hate and extremity. It’s not a choice between religiosity and insanity.

 

[trashpony]

If there is no religious fuckwittery, then all one can assume is that the youth is unwell.

Or that he’s a psycho misogynist as he specifically targeted little girls.

That is a most depressing thought.
