Immigration Thread

Never had a motorbike. Scary things.
In the wrong hands yes, otherwise it's a fantastic feeling cruising along on a summers day.

Didn't even need a helmet when I started riding them and the sense of freedom is something you just can't explain.

The bike becomes part of you and it responds to every sway of your body.

Christ just remembering it makes me want to go out and buy one again. 🏍️
 
What was going through that little prick's head to do something like that, and the victim's young son was with him as well -

"I am not worried about myself, but I do worry about my children — my daughter saw me after the attack happened, but my son was with me at the time and was traumatised to see his dad with so much blood flowing on his face. I worry about what they’ll say when they go back to school, and the teacher asks them what they did during the holidays.”

I know people who are reluctant to take their kids to the park because they fear being the victim of racism when they get there.

Immigration shouldn’t be an open door of course but the discourse has been so soured that a significant portion of the public are now blaming immigrants for our problems. Unfortunately some of those will vocalise it to immigrants and some again will turn that hostility physical.

We have a problem with racism in this country.
