I had a discussion on LinkedIn only a few days ago when there was a post with strong racial terms being discussed. I quoted a few recent knife crimes by white British people which didn't go down well. We have more than enough British nutcases who fancy themselves when they have a knife on them. We do have knife crime which is homegrown (see bbc piece on Nottingham today) however I do think there are cultural links to certain crime’s. You don’t see many white British people attacking several random people in public places. The problem is if we are all to scared to talk about these issues because you are accused of being racist then our society will get worse over time. A prime example is the Rotherham Asian abuse gangs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest if 6 random people were stabbed by one person in Glasgow central it would be headline worthy. I don’t really understand your point?
