Not always :sherlock:

I see another random stabbing of a girl in Burnley yesterday and thankfully it wasn't a fatality, again caught on camera i'm not sure when this perfectly normal ends. Glad i'm not the conspiracy type maybe i'd be wondering, two horrific attacks on the public caught on camera and uploaded to social media before any narrative can be framed, it almost seems as if the hidden hand is deliberately stoking up the agenda.

You just answered your own premise: Camera phones.

The 90s had Bulger, Dunblane, Stephen Lawrence, among fathoms of others who would have undoubtedly spread like wildfire with camera phones and social media. The change is with the ubiquity of camera phones, not the rate of crime. It leads to the false belief that crimes like this happen more often now than today. People seeking to spin a racial agenda love this because they can cherrypick certain instances and create a narrative that a problem is worse than it actually is.

I attended school in the 70’s i cant remember 1 incident in any school in St Wales at that period in time of any pupil carrying, or let alone using a knife. Unless it was in the school canteen 😁

Saturday Night Strangler and Neil Rutherford existed. Things like that probably did happen but due to the lack of the 24/7 news cycle, they didn't get as much notoriety.

Case in point: Kenny Jackett's death was highlighted in black on Sky News for 20 minutes, before the breaking news pivoted to Pierre Gasly having his Monaco GP third-place penalty be rescinded. Back when there wasn't 24/7 news, things like that wouldn't even hit the news cycle.

The thing is, if such an assault had happened in Burnley during the Sixties, Seventies, Eighties or even Nineties, you'd have know absolutely nothing about it.

For instance, Peter Sutcliffe is known to have started assaulting women in 1969. In July 1975, he smashed a woman over the head with a hammer in Keighley and slashed her stomach with a knife. He'd committed a number of similar brutal attacks and a few grizzly murders by the time his crimes gained any sort of national publicity.

Things are very different now, of course. We have the internet. Thanks to the likes of Musk, Zuckerberg, their algorithms and various political agitators, those of you who spend your time diving down into social media rabbit holes will hear about all sorts of crimes you'd have been totally oblivious to during past decades. That much is blatantly obvious, but it probably doesn't fit certain narratives.

No. The official name is union flag. Its colloquially called union Jack, and many institutions refer it as such, including the flag institute, but as described, strictly speaking, the jack is when flown on a naval vessel.
