Yes, that I want big strong policemen on call when I need them. You might see some kind of uniform based fantasy, I’m just being practical.

A very good friend of mine died of Covid recently. I couldn’t go to her funeral. Surely attending the funeral of a dear friend (somebody I actually knew very well) was more important that people gathering to mourn the death of somebody (I’m guessing) they didn’t know?Why the special rules? Why none for me? Because I obey the law? So we make exemptions because we know people will break the law anyway? I refer you to my previous event example. Your police might do things differently, I’d like the law enforced please. Otherwise it’s one rule for me and a different one for somebody who flatly refuses to obey it.

Oh my word! I thought I’d seen everything.
If i was about to inhale a toxic fumes. I couldn’t care less if it was a she or a he or trans gender fire person and was 6 ft 4 or 5 ft 4, as long as they got me out of the burning building.

I think you need to come to terms with your ‘fear’ of finding big, burly men in your house 
As always, I’m jiggered if I know how the hell you’ve made the murder of a young woman and the anger about the police response to the vigil about you and your needs, but there we go.
If you think about this practically and sensibly, your burglar situation is not going to require a burly police response.
Some men break into your house, but they are going to be long gone before any police can get there, male or female.
All the police are going to be doing is turning up hours later, taking a statement, giving you a crime number and getting off again.
Why shouldn’t that be a woman.
In your scenario, they aren’t there to turn up at your house within seconds, overpower the crook (who’s probably wearing a stripy jumper and fade mask) and cart him off to prison.
I think you’ve got a middle England fantasy notion of burglary. In the real world, it’s probably some poor bastard with a drug habit that wants to be in and out of your house as quick as possible, is only going to be interested in taking items they can sell a cash converters, and absolutely does not want to bump into anyone, male or female.

Never been burgled have you?
This discussion isn’t about a murder, it’s about the illegal events afterwards as you well know.

Yes once, my parents have.
This vigil wouldnt have taken place if the the victim was alive. The police should have handled the situation better and liaised with the vigil organisers

It is sort of about a murder, isn’t it?
A young woman was murdered, and lots of people after this naturally wanted to show that they also don’t feel safe on the streets.
Covid is not going to stop justifiably angry people demonstrating, and as in the summer with BLM, this needed a considered compromise from the police. Unfortunately the thick cunts only know one thing…

I’m sorry that you lost someone close, esp at this time with the restrictions in place making it impossible to do what we normally do on the death of a friend or relative.
I lost a few over the past year too including a family member and the restrictions made it hard. I’d gladly forfeit that and have the women of London have a vigil for their sister, murdered by a cop, alone, snatched while walking home on a public street.
My friends and relative died ‘normal’ deaths. This was something different and i think you prob know that even though you like to keep up your uncompromising facade.

The needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many. OK then.

Just stop. Seriously.
It’s unfortunate that these moments where the pot boils over have happened during the lockdown, but they have happened, and it’s understandable that they have.
Something tells me if we weren’t in a pandemic, we’d be hearing another reason why these women can’t protest.
And it isn’t one bad egg in the police force. Their attitude towards women is an institutional problem. Kidnapping, raping and murdering a woman might the extreme end of the spectrum, but it is a spectrum.

You might think there’d be other reasons, I can’t. You’ve stuck the boot into the government at every possible opportunity during Covid, fair enough they deserve it. But you can’t then brush this off as an understandable pot boiling over. Either this is a serious situation (Covid) or it isn’t. As somebody who’s almost lost his business, I assure you it really is. I get shut down permanently if I don’t follow the rules but you want them bending in this instance because it’s understandable? Is me bending the rules to pay my mortgage understandable? Seemingly not but joining hundreds of others to mourn for somebody I’ve never met would be AOK.
After spannering the government for killing thousands, flouting the rules put in place to reduce deaths is now fine? That’s cognitive dissonance.

Well, Twitter’s is really doing itself proud tonight. Really shows humanity at its most hateful and ignorant.
Three cheers for
-
all the men taking this opportunity to trend #notallmen, giving us this crisis’s #alllivesmatter moment, and making the rape and murder of a young woman, and the subsequent explosion of protest, all about them and their poor hurt feelings. Pricks.
-
everyone asking where these protesters were when those young women in Rotherham were raped by Asians (very important to get that in) and forgetting that the trial was collapsed by a white supremacy organisation that they no doubt very much approve of.
-
all the rightwing fucknuts suggesting the police baton, water-cannon, charge, punch, or otherwise assault people. Because of course an uprising that has been sparked by disproportionate police violence is going to be calmed by more police violence, you absolute fucking melts.
-
Everyone who, yet again, finds more concern in the wellbeing of a statue than than people’s lives.
-
Anyone, no sorry, anycunt, who uses the word ‘Antifa’.
-
And finally, a very, very special clap round the face for the bellend who, I shit you not, suggested that the protesters were hijacking the name of ‘Susan Evererd’

You don’t understand because you don’t seem to have any functioning empathy.
People are really fucking angry, and like in summer, that won’t be contained by restrictions and rules.
