I have been going to a newsagents that is near my house for as long as I can remember. It has actually expanded from a newsagents to a mini market now. The family who own this business are Indian-like me. Indian people tend to originate from India which is in Asia.
There is a Chinese fish and chips take away near me. Well actually, there are 4 near where I live, all about 5 minutes walk away. But I go to a particular one as it is really nice. Chinese people tend to originate from China which is in Asia.
About 8 miles form the town in which I live is a town called Rochdale. Recently, it was discovered that there were some absolutely horrific, disgusting grooming of underage girls by a gang who all but one were (the one being from Afghanistan)-Pakistanis. All of them were Muslims. I think there were 9 in that particular group who were abusing, grooming and raping underage girls for about 2 years now. Pakistani people tend to originate from Pakistan which is in Asia.
So if someone shouts "Those Asian bastards should be hung, drawn and quartered!" do the owners of the chippy, the newsagents and myself have a right to be annoyed? Or do we just put our heads down and go about our business KNOWING what they mean? But what do they mean? There are around 46 countries in Asia. I bet that the people that shout this kind of stuff couldn't even name half of them. A major problem was that in the newspapers, the words "Asian men" was said a numerous amount of times and with the ignorance of some people, this just doesn't help matters.
I understand how frustrated people can get when this kind of horrific stuff happens. Especially people who are friends and relatives of the victims. And with justice in this country being so shit, I would want them to be hung, drawn and quartered too. When I saw one of my bullies back in school repeatedly groping a girl and forcing himself on her, I was scared. I was too much of a coward at the time but the frustration in me was immense. In some sick way it was worse because I COULD have dome something. I am not like that now-If I was to see him do that again now, nevermind him being hung, drawn and quartered, I would rip his head off myself. If the victim was someone I knew then I don't even know what I would do.
A couple of years ago I served a customer in a shop I worked at. He said he had just gotten out of jail. When I asked why he had been in jail he said because he tied up and tortured someone who had abused an underage girl for 2 days straight.
The girls who had been abused in Rochdale were all white. It is most probably still going on. Even though that gang have been caught, I guarantee you that there are numerous other gangs all in that area. The police who were investigating these sick crimes actually had the nerve of coming out with "This isn't a cultural issue. Anyone could have been a victim of this gang. They weren't targeted just because they were white."
THAT is what a policeman said. What utter fucking bullshit.
The sick people in the gang were OF COURSE targeting young white girls. If they saw a young Pakistani girl, they would no way do this to her. This Pakistani gang were doing these sick, disgusting crimes because they felt like they had power over innocence. Over whites. Treating them like meat and passing them onto their own brothers/cousins for sex. They don't stop and think about how damaging it is. They also don't stop and think how they would feel if their own daughter was being treated like meat and used for sex by gangs.
The plain obvious facts are that this has been happening for years. That the men are mostly from the British-Pakistani community. That police and some people are afraid to say this because they are afraid of being branded racist. People are too afraid to actually get involved if it came down to actually seeing something that looked slightly dodgy. They would shout and curse about it later of course. But if they saw something that wasn't right-would they actually step in?
The following is a link I found which fits in nicely with what I am writing. Bear in mind that the date of this article is the 5th of January 2011. Over 16 months ago:-
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1344218/Asian-sex-gangs-Culture-silence-allows-grooming-white-girls-fear-racist.html
If you read that, notice how this seems to have been a recurring issue. It has been going on for years. Also notice the word "Asian" in the link. I think that it seems that the word "Asian" is used because if the word "Pakistani" was used then there would be cries of racism. The word "Asian" is safer. Unfortunately, angry mobs don't understand that because you might be Asian, it doesn't make you a bad person. Ironically, these are the same kind of people who go to the chippy to get Chinese food, who go to the Indian mini market for some bread and milk.
I understand that child abuse happens everywhere, all over the world. It is horrific and it needs to be stopped. I think that punishment needs to be really severe. As severe as the actual abuse itself. When you hear about how things like this happen so close to home, it really does hit home.
