/// He and his parents saw our country as a land of safety and opportunity. It afforded him neither. Thavisha died in broken Britain; a potent symbol of its disintegration into shocking and gratuitous lawlessness. ///

If you agree with this family's sentiments, what has brought Britain down to this level?

Lets get some bobbies on the beat not these utterly useless PCso's and lets get rid of these dodgy Chief Constables who same to be making the headlines for all the wrong reasons.Then perhaps we can set about finding jobs for people which will stop them hanging round street corners and whatever else they do.Then finally get all our gutless politicians to listen and bring back the death penalty.That should do to be going on with.
Same question could have been asked when that Indian student Anuj Bidve was shot for absolutely no reason by a piece of filth called Kiaran Stapleton,

Reportedly at the trial, Stapleton grinned, smiled and openly laughed at the memory of our son and at one stage looked towards the jury and pointed to his face saying: 'Look at this face. Does it look bothered?'
These kinds of violent acts aren't race-specific and I would argue that this isn't AOG' point, because Mr Stapleton was white English, born and bred.
Perhaps part of the answer is that there are more people willing to kill.
Quite a basic analysis - and I know the stats for violent crime contradict this but this is the impression one gets when one reads of these crimes.
But let's hold our horses...we don't even know the motive behind the murder of Thavisha yet.
I only hope it wasn't a race hate crime, because if it were, then some sections of the media, will have to shoulder some of the home for 'engineering' stories which stoke up race hate.

Thavisha, it emerges, had been attacked once before while delivering pizzas. His cousin Beena Narangoda, 32, an English teacher, says he had not mentioned it to his parents for fear of worrying them.
‘He’d gone to deliver a pizza and someone pulled a knife on him,’ she says. ‘He just handed the pizza over. He wasn’t the type to struggle. He would have given them the pizza, the money or the car if they wanted it. He knew how important he was to so many people.
suggest it was more about thieving than a racial, religious incident, after all how did they know the chap was of a different religion, ?

That's the odd thing - I can't understand it being a robbery, because pizza delivery people don't carry that much cash on them (just change from payment which is then handed in before the next delivery).
Perhaps if it were robbery, then it was a carjacking?
Conjecture time - if I relied on my car to earn money to pay for my studies, I would be more inclined to try and protect it, rather than a wallet full of credit cards which can easily be replaced.
We shall find out more at the trial.

it the second time he had been held up, why don't you think that they carry money, after all you deliver the pizzas and the customer pays you, someone may not want to pay for theirs, who knows, the item is on the news now, the two suspects are in custody. Shamraz Khan and the 17 year old are due to be up in magistrates court in the next few weeks.

What I mean is that a pizza delivery person will never be carrying a 'decent' amount of money to justify cash robbery as a motive. But as I say - pure guesswork.
It's also quite shaming, when someone puts their trust in the UK, and we let them down - like that lad who was robbed during the riots a couple of years back (where he had his backpack taken off him).

Quite right AOG. I would probably say much the same if I was grieving for the reason that they are, more feeling than thinking as we all surely do.
But the answer is of course to get rid of all these foreign Johnnies, what, and their vile spawn, and make Britain white and great again, by Jove, don't you think ? Should have kept these damn colonials where they were, what? Have you seen how much knife crime they perpetrate? (Or is there more to it than that? The Daily Mail remembers when Britain was in that happy state, and so do the mass of its readers)
