Immigration Thread

Dial it back a bit, there, lad. The victim in all this said she thinks the woman had mental health problems and would like her to get help. All the while you're out here demanding they get splashed across the newspapers. And calling the person "scum."

Glad to see yourself and no-one you know has had the terror of a serious mental health issue with the amount of compassion you're showing.
That kind of compassion is admirable but in effect she has excused the behaviour and given others an excuse to do so.

Like many I’ve had times in my life where I’ve had challenges with mental health but that has never caused me to racially abuse anyone. I would say that racism or racist incidents are very rarely driven by mental health issues.

This is pathetic. Now you're blaming the victim.

.Racist beliefs can be a symptom of a
psychotic disorder.
 
No I am not. But look back this thread. Nobody has expressed any concern for the victim on this thread apart from me.

Plenty of concern for the racist though.
You're obviously not concerned for the victim, the person who knows what happened best, because you're saying she's to blame for further incidents and she's wrong about the person needing help. The actual respect you have for her is zero.

As for your knowledge of mental health issues I'd imagine that could barely fill a thimble.
