Can This Increase In Crime Be Credited Solely To The Lack Of Police On Our Streets?

Or dare I suggest it may be partially due of the different cultural standards that we now have in this country?

I say this because in all the recent debates on this subject, many reasons have been put forward ie one parent families (no father figures) Falling Police resources due to Government cuts, Violent video games, cessation of stop and searches, etc, etc.

But nowhere has multiculturalism ever been mentioned, is it because of the fear that the dreaded racist card may be played?

AOG, they're not 'straws' they're your own words which undermine and belie your true feelings.

/// AB has been a big education for AOG, ///

It certainly has, but I have always known that Africa is a continent and that Muslims are not a race, as I told some of you enough times.

But the education that I have acquired from being a member of AB is the fact that there are some very queer people out there, who have no idea of the art of debating,
and are only capable of throwing out their insults and labels at anyone who dares to possess a different opinion to themselves and their flock, who follow them obediently around.

If you say so.

But that of course that doesn't necessarily mean that it is true, especially on your past record.

Awwww, poor you AOG.
Your 1950s attitudes to every aspect of modern life shines through just about every question you pose and thread you become involved in. If you're honest, you can't get your head around the fact that someone who is non white can be as British as you, can you, and therefore not 'multicultural'.
You just made a comment on the Holland Park schools thread where you stated that a single mother of three had 'done well' to bring up her kids on her own. It didn't cross your mind, for one second, that the school, despite being a comprehensive, is in the Royal Borough of Kensington and the average house price is about £1.2 million. Your mind went straight to ' she's single therefore she must be impoverished as the wage earning male of the house must have left her'.
Whilst you're encumbered by such anachronistic views, you'll always post in a way many of us find unbelievably crass and you'll always be challenged to explain your views, which, upon failing to be able to explain yourself, you'll resort to calling people 'the likes of you' and 'pathetic'.

Blimey. What a thread! SP's and zac's comments stand out as the most accurate.
Aog, can you really not see the difference between not wanting to live next door to someone because of their colour- and thinking you can't report a black family for something specific "because that would be racist"?
