28 September - The Loony Left and their tolerance of state violence
Twitter can be a cesspit. With rare exceptions I have used it only to advertise some of the blogs published here and even then
delete them a few weeks later when I judge they have served their purpose.
Three months ago I decided to take a rest from it and Tweeted no more, I even withdrew the icon that appears on the banner
above and considered cancelling the account altogether. However on Saturday I returned to the fetid pool.
I had
posted a blog which included
a video of a police officer flooring a woman with a vicious punch.
I am very aware that I am old school but I cannot find any excuse for doing that to any woman even though, as has been widely
reported, she had been waggling her Selfie Stick in the police officer’s face.
The associated Tweet said that the Met. Police was out of control and deserved no respect.
However according to some they are not and they do because of the tragic events in Croydon
on Friday. The logic is the same as not being able to complain about the trains being late
the day after a railway accident far away.
Twitter is full of people who do not possess any powers of logic. I called the
protesters in Trafalgar Square lunatics and nuts although in retrospect I should
have made it clearer that was a reference to their stage acts and not the people
in attendance who when interviewed appeared to be sane and rational.
Calling them lunatics and nuts did not stop Daniel Jenkins from saying I was a
sympathiser. My sympathy lay only with the younger generation not having their
lives ruined in order to save the geriatrics like me and I said so. I know of no one my age
who disagrees with that view.
But there are bigger idiots on Twitter than those who cannot read properly, there
are total ignoramuses who know nothing and are proud of it.
They are the blinkered individuals who believe the police can do no wrong and
wouldn’t go around arranging murder, planting drugs and stealing the proceeds of
armed robberies. It is all well documented and in books you can buy on Amazon.
None of the authors have been challenged.
A couple of them I have met and they are merely seekers
of truth. All a bit too far to the Left for my taste but good men nevertheless.
They have produced TV series and award winning Podcasts on the subject too.
Most famously is the Daniel Morgan case and the long series of
cover-ups of the circumstance of his murder. After a
succession of Labour Home Secretaries of the same persuasion as Christine
Harwood refused to disbelieve their saintliness, Theresa May saw that something odd was going on. She authorised an
enquiry which was asked to report a year later.
Attempts to thwart it by the establishment wasted the first few months and saw its
Chairman leave his post after its original aims were apparently subverted. As a result of
that and other obstructions placed in its path the enquiry is still ongoing nearly eight years
later. The most senior officers named in the media daily are responsible for
collaborating with the enquiry which is probably not helping it uncover the truth one little bit.
Christine Harwood is not only ignorant but keen to insult those who know better
than she does, but jibes about mental health issues is relatively mild compared to some.
This delightful individual somehow likens me to Oswald Mosley, his Brown Shirts and the British Union of Fascists. How can any
fully functioning brain link the abhorrence of violence to Facism?
I’m a Fascist for calling those on the stage at last
Saturday’s rally lunatics and nuts and firmly believing that police officers who
punch women are thugs and along with their leaders who accept it deserve no respect;
whatever precious day of the week it is. Violence is violence on a Saturday as well as a Friday.
Madam Lovelace displays a total lack of knowledge of political history which is
perhaps unsurprising when her own Profile boasts of a closed mind. “Those who
don’t follow me your (sic) blocked.”
With the moniker ‘No time for Racists’ you can be pretty sure that we
have the sort of person the Labour Party has always been so very unfortunate to attract.
Another of that type but with a
particularly vindictive streak is Sidcup4Remain who is probably wise to remain
anonymous although I am pretty sure it must be a Labour Party activist.
For objecting to police violence at a protest led by people who I thought were
on the lunatic and nutty fringe it is apparently a good idea to get me into
the trouble with the police by referring my views to them - four times over!
Throughout my lifetime politics has attracted unpleasant individuals
and never more so than now when too many of them end up in Parliament.
Sidcup4Remain is the very essence of obsessive and ignorant politics.
I had considered blocking all of the accounts mentioned here today but upon
reflection that is not sensible. The ignorant need educating so why cut them off
from the truth?
