Luton is rough as ****. Lots of angry, scummy white kids.
Tommy Robinson started his career as a thug supporting Luton, apparently
He was not successful at that :hehe:Quote:

Lots of scummy people of Asian and African descent as well, but he wouldn’t say that.Quote:

Exactly. If anyone applied that phrase to another race there'd be uproar.
I have no idea what street it was on. Why do you care? I don't regard all white kids as scummy. I didn't see any black or Asian kids.Quote:

It'd be hard not to see any Asian kids in Luton actually, but I was just wondering why it's okay to say "scummy white kids" because, as I said above , if someone used that expression about another race people would be going crackers about it.
I’ve had the odd disagreement with NYC but **** sake it’s like it all over the UK good and bad everywhere you go.Quote:

I'm not so much having a go at NYC, just pointing out that if we're going to be precious about the expressions we use, then that's a two way street.Quote:

did they not burn a welsh flag in the late 90's ? ??Quote:

Not sure if they took a kicking after the game but I’m still smarting after all those years. David Preece’s ‘offside’ goal after Stant equalised, still haunts! Yesterday was a small payback!Quote:

I did a doctorate in the demographics of Luton and DunstableQuote:

The flag burning incident was in the Championship, so definitely after 2003. In a wooden stand too. Absolutely no punishment. Ground should have been closed.
So do you refute the possibility of any angry, scummy white kids being there?Quote:

If anything, the op is probably being a bit prejudiced towards the working classes and people who are unemployed.

If people could add "This is a football thread" to their post titles that would save me a lot of wasted time". Thanks.Quote:

Well I'm not WB for a start, and actually I'm not generally considered to be a " strange little ****er" in the wider world.Quote:

Yeah if anything he's targeting working class people , which I don't specially like. Your own comment " you white fecker" would also attract pandemonium if you applied it to another race though, wouldn't it ?Quote:

In the past , manipulative interests encouraged hatred and contempt toward black people , now the same class of people who profited from that are encouraging hatred and contempt toward white people

I'd certainly doubt that you'd see groups of white kids there very often. Maybe on estates around the town , but not in the town itself.
I still wonder though why you describe working white class kids as scummy though to be honest. As I said earlier, I'm in favour of freedom of speech and I don't personally want to censor you, but it is a racist comment and I repeat that if you said it about any other racial group the word police would be after you.
