The guy in the grey on the right was trying to give it large by the looks of things and it all went wrong! That's fantastic. I wasn't expecting the second one to smack him right in the nuts and that cheered me right up. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the third one that gets him in the nuts, first to face, then back of head, then nuts. If it was a basketball going in a net, I’d presume this was a fake.

Almost seems like they're doing it deliberately. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you can make sense of that you’re a better man than me fair doos...here's me jumping to conclusions without looking at facts...just assumed it was the EDL kicking off about migrants based on the false info on the attacker's nationality...which is kinda how media are reporting it https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cv2gyv882nvo Quote The riot began after hundreds of protesters gathered near a local mosque attacking the front of it, throwing bricks, bottles, fireworks and rocks, many with hoods up and scarves hiding their faces. Merseyside Police said those behind the violence had been fired up by social media posts which incorrectly suggested an Islamist link to Monday’s stabbings.

I know social media is a shit show but it does seem like we're heading towards America with people trying to divide the country and jumping on situations like this to attempt to make it worse. Everything about this but the weapon used has resembled the US. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor guy, all he wanted was a nice picture looking like a hard knock staring down the police and he ends up shuffling away holding his balls not knowing where he is.

But the riot was sparked by the knife incident. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy times. The vigil and the riot were separate evens, hours apart. Much more likely the man with the knife was going to or leaving the mosque 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will also remain anonymous throughout proceedings. Such a dumb law this is. When a 17 year old commits a crime of this nature they shouldnt be protected and sent to a adults prison to make their life hell 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The law is there for a reason. That reason isn’t to help salacious gossip and human curiosity. Its highly likely that this person will spend the majority of their time in an institution designed for adults because they'll get moved to one when they reach 18 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 (edited) The videos are insane, it’s incredible there was not multiple murders on the Southend streets. Why would anyone decide to go out with a huge machete and think today is the day I kill someone and spend the rest of my life in prison?
