The victim is an Asian man who has lived here for 40 years.

Not all black or Asian people are immigrants 🤔
Some are born here, some have been here for generations.
Some immigrants are white.

Oops that's true. I was against people saying it's always coloured people because the skin was white and it's not fair to blame drker skinned people for the crimes of paler skinned people. I definitely get your point about imigrants being from European countries and agree. I didn't word that at all well.

The internet is the cause of it. Sorry but it needs to be policed. Young minds are not able to understand the disgusting content they are able to see online.

This is just truly shocking.

Children have been left to their own devices for years - we were sent out to play, met up with friends, played tennis, rode our bikes, took a picnic and no-one ever thought of doing anything like this. My children would go off, play football in the park, tennis etc and never got into trouble.

What on earth are they watching on the internet?

You're right, Babs03. I started looking at the London news more as I can't believe there is not more being done.

A disabled man was killed on a mobility scooter in London and hardly anything was said. People are robbed all the time in London and nothing is said at the time. People keep blaming immigrants but the CCTV of the last few London crimes I've seen has been white people, unmistakable.

So many children killing other children. I know it might sound a tad too easy to blame the internet but if there are suicide sites encouraging young people to commit suicide is not too much of a stretch to assume there are sites encouraging youngsters to commit murder.
Have heard of the dark web and it terrifies me. Of course none of us could function without the internet now but is this a good thing? I mean if we can’t police it and stop online bullying, incitement to riot, or far worse as I have mentioned, what sort of world has this become.
Was glad to see that some of those who incited the riots have now been given prison sentences, but that is just the tip of a very big iceberg.

The local police force have referred them selves to the relevant body (forgotten the name) as they have had contact with the victim previously.

Braunstone Town (the area of Leicester) had lots of incidences of crime a few years back but had seemed to have been turned round. I hope this is not a return to the bad old days.

I find it horrifying and sad that children blight their own lives with senseless acts of violence. Something is badly wrong in our society these days.

It's shocking! There was a spate of crime recently which was blamed on immigrants. All I know is, the lads were stupid enough to get caught on camera and they were white. One had a dirty face, but the idiot had pink arms. I read the comments on the news story and there were so many racist comments, but they were not coloured people.
I think people don't want to admit it's our people doing the crime often. Where are the parents?

Having nothing to do all day doesn't contribute to such an act of violence. Raising children is the responsibility of their parents, not the government.

I hear what you’re saying, but honestly most parents do this, and it’s reenforced
in most Primary Schools.

It’s utterly shocking and clearly unacceptable

closing youth clubs and sure start centres by the last gov't was a big mistake.

I imagine having nothing to do all day would have contributed not that that makes it excusable.

I agree plus possibly parents out at work or elsewhere

There are still over 2,000 Sure Start Centres open.

I have an idea, how about parents teaching their children the difference between right and wrong?

It is quite unbelievable isn’t it? I have just this moment read the story out to my OH. What on earth have these children been watching to turn into such monsters and what will the parents be thinking? It is quite beyond belief.

Asking what is happening is no help. It happened.
We had a stabbing here recently, the first of its kind close to where I live, but that was adults. Shocking I agree.

The details and facts behind this story will be out soon.

Meanwhile my question is, what are we doing to our children?
