Why the news blackout?

It is amazing that we have heard very little about this violent disturbance, yet if they had been white youths or far-right groups, it would have been all over the news wires.
I can find only three reports on it.
Daily Express, Reuters and The Times.
Yes this took place in Luton, wasn't it only a short time ago since some Muslims demonstrated when some of our brave troops marched through the city? Similar low profile then, yet look when some whites set about them.
This violence was carried out by a 200 mob of Asians who threw fireworks at the Police, and yet only 2 arrests were made one of these was later released.
The ironic thing was that the Police where there to protect these Asians, yet they still had to have their time of vengeance, even though the proposed Right-Wing march had been banned, yes banned, it is perfectly aright for far left groups, (the ones that mainly cause all the trouble) to attend these mainly peaceful marches.
I am not saying that these Asian youths were far-left but had they not been in attendance and the Right-Wingers had been allowed to march, there would have been no trouble for the Police.
A lesson to be learned, 'There is a rule for one and a much stricter rule for others'

There is a video of the incident here.

One idiot and 199 people watching. Not exactly the riot I was expecting from your question. There is more aggro and arrests in most town centres every Friday and Saturday night than in that.
Still, they had dusky faces and funny names, so worth a post from AOG.

With Britain sleepwalking into a Muslim state where Leicester has > 50% Asian population and Luton reaching 20% the authorities have to ensure that civil war does not erupt.
Unfortunately Fiji discovered the problem too late and the resident population became outnumbered by immigrants. They have just been expelled from the Commonwealth:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/ 8231717.stm
Their crime was to have a revolution that led to a coup to regain their country.
But it can never happen here!

These people endangered lives by messing with fireworks and they created a social disturbance.
I don't care what race you are they should have all been arrested.
Why should people we have welcomed into our country be allowed to preach their hate, host demonstrations and yet receive no punishment .
One (white) person in an office makes an off the cuff remark that is taken to be racist and they are sacked.
I have never been racist but I have to honestly admit that the way this country is, and the way some are exploiting it, I am getting there!!!!

I actually support the dailymailers in their desperate hunt for an anti-black/Muslim story this weekend.
There was a disappointingly low number of arrests at the Notting Hill Carnival this weekend, so anything that casts non-whites in a bad light should be viewed as a Godsend.
Furthermore, the media is corrupt and willfully supresses any news story which paints blacks or Asians in a bad light.
Also, it seems you can only be racist nowadays if you're White!
All the immigrants get preferential treatment.
I went to my local NHS clinic the other day, and it was full of black lesbian, disabled, hoodie, Yardie gangsters who were stealing our benefits and raping our teenage virgin daughters whilst dishonouring our brave boys and girls returning from Afghanistan.
Phew...that's no where nearly as easy as I thought it would be..I think I've got a crick in my neck just trying to write all that rubbish.

There you are AOG. Come and live in East Anglia. You don't have to go the whole way in, Cambridge would do, and watch full coverage of this, and any other such incidents, on our local TV. ! Evidently Luton, Beds. is within our local news coverage
If 'we have heard very little about this', how come you found it in national newspapers ?. The Daily Express? The Times? Even Reuters news agency, a worldwide service?. What do you want ?
Unlike the proper riot of Millwall and West Ham fans (disturbingly white, wherever do they get their ideas from?) this incident was nowhere near significant enough to merit more coverage than two national newspapers, a big news agency and local TV.
The other nationals obviously have a different set of priorities to yours. Couldn't you find it in the Daily Mail? You ought to write to the DM and complain.

Could the reason for the low number of arrests, be down to the fact that the Police had been ordered to play a low profile. They don't want to be accused of racism do they?
Hence:
Police also arrested a group of 38 youths suspected of plotting trouble and held them until the carnival ended.
Among those arrested were the 38 who were detained at Victoria station just after 3pm. The group of youths was taken by bus to a South London police station and released at 10pm.
And finally the obligatory photo:

Well that's alright then as long as there was no trouble.

There were very few arrests at the Notting Hill Carnival because it was 850,000 people of all races getting together to have a laugh, eat good food, listen to sound systems, and generally get on with each other.
They're not like West Ham fans!
38 arrests!
Out of 850,000 people???
Oh dear...must've driven the dailymailers wild that one.

Luton town centre was busy at the time of the riot with shoppers enjoying the sunshine.
Many of those who joined in the march had been drinking in town centre pubs.
All pretty scary stuff which warranted the use of police dogs, the police helicopter, officers on horseback and the use of batons.
No low profile policing here then?

Seems like a good time was had by all, except for the guy in the second photo, and of course (if I dare mention it) that young lad of 15, who was stabbed.
Incidentally there were a total of 215 people arrested,

I say this because someone was stabbed after that match...did you know that?
Yes I did, WHO IS COPYING WHO?
Perhaps this isn't the best way for black kids to assimilate into English society...by copying football hooligans.
Maybe some good will come from it, perhaps it will help to wean them from their gang culture, along with the fixation for shooting each other.

So to paraphrase...you're saying that black kids should form huge (hundreds) gangs and rampage through city centres?
Why would you want this?
It sounds like you actually support football hooliganism?
Have you ever been a victim of football hooliganism? I haven't, but a mate's brother was beaten so badly by these savages, he ended up in hospital.
Why hold this people up as an example to copy?
