Leave it to the Brits to insert their snobby noses into something they know nothing about.
If I remember history correctly, we kicked their asses, so they should mind their business, less they get another one.
British expatriate Piers Morgan chimed in on guns, and now it’s a swarm of bonehead Brits meddling in the Ferguson mess.
And why not, since the Brits are thousands of miles away, and have no problems of their own to deal with! Yet, it was reported that thousands protested in London in sympathy for the death of a black thug. The people who established America’s system of jurisprudence are now demonstrating against it. Here is how it was reported in one publication.
The roughly five thousand London protesters held signs reading “Black lives matter” and chanted “Hands up, don’t shoot”, the slogan adopted by protesters in the US.
At a rally outside the United States embassy, relatives of black men killed by police in Britain addressed the crowd.
“We need to send a message to Mike Brown’s family,” said Carol Duggan, the aunt of Mark Duggan, a 29-year-old black man whose shooting by police in 2011 was followed by riots.
“We feel the pain, we know the pain, of losing somebody at the hands of the police.
“That is why we stand in solidarity with the community of Ferguson. I feel they are very strong and brave people.”
Some protesters carried candles, and a minute of silence was held in honour of those killed by police around the world.
Marcia Rigg, the sister of Sean Rigg, a 40-year-old black musician who died in police custody in London in 2008, told the crowd that she did not support arson and looting but that she understood people’s rage.
“People around the world understand the frustration and anger that the people are feeling when our loved ones are murdered on the streets,” Rigg said.
Following the vigil at the embassy, the crowd marched through London’s central shopping district, stopping traffic on Oxford Street and Regent Street as they chanted “Don’t shoot black kids”.
I’m sure there are many Brits who would happily trade places with America’s whiny ass black Liberals. I’d happily make the swap.
