Have a Go Hero

Augustinas Karevalis behind the wheel of his car - probably not sober

Kickboxer rammed by drink driver chased after suspect and pinned him to car until police arrive | Mail Online

Have-a-go hero Darren Summers, 39, chased down fellow driver Augustinas Karvelis after he was rammed in his Renault Clio three times while driving back from the cinema in Ipswich.

Nice to see one of these drink driving idiots get his comeuppance. Or should I say that it would be nice to see one of these idiots get his comeuppance – he didn’t. Despite being twice the drink drive limit; driving without insurance; as well as driving whilst banned – he received just a 24 week prison sentence, of which he will serve just half.

The Lithuanian, who only moved to Ipswich five days before the incident, certainly won’t see the error of his ways from such a lenient sentence.  He’s already been banned from driving for drink driving once already, and I am sure that it won’t be long before we see Augustinas Karevalis’ name in the papers again, but this time on a death by dangerous driving charge.

As the man who caught him said:

“When I was 17 I got banned for speeding. Being young I decided to drive my car to go to work and I got six months for driving while disqualified and I hadn’t been drinking.

He was already a drink driver before this. He was well over the limit and he rammed my car three times to get away. Not only did he put me in danger and my wife in danger, if I had not rammed him, you don’t know if any members of the public would have been killed and I wasn’t prepared for that to happen.

I would like to see harsher penalties for people who drink drive once they start hitting double the drink-drive limit.”

So would we all. Not to mention instant deportation for those who continue to break the law.

Augustinas Karevalis - There are few mien's that scream 'Eastern Europe' as readily as Augustinas Karevalis'

Unfortunately the likes of Augustinas Karevalis are free to come to this country, flout the law, and yet are still not being removed for everyone else’s safety. Indeed, in modern Britain it is almost impossible to be actually be deported.

It is also quite surprising that the man performing the citizen’s arrest wasn’t arrested himself on some jumped up assault charge. This seems to be what happens these days, as is evident from the fact that the number of citizen’s  arrests have dropped ten-fold over the past decade. People don’t usually want to get involved as it simply is not worth the risk.

Perhaps if the police weren’t so heavy handed, more people like Darren Summers would make a stand. But then, what would be the point when they receive such inconsequential sentences? I am sure that Darren Summers is now wondering why he bothered.

Riots Erupt Across Britain

The cost is already running into tens of millions, yet the Government sits on their hands.

BBC News – London riots: Violence erupts for third day

Violence has broken out for a third consecutive day in London, with riot police deployed and firefighters tackling blazes across the capital.

Since then further riots have sprung up across London and now also in Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester and Nottingham. Shops and houses are being looted and burnt to the ground, people are being robbed, beaten and even stripped of their clothing; all whilst the police stand by, seldom taking any action.

Blame Game

The blame has been placed at the feet of the police, in part for the shooting of Mark Duggan and the uncertainty surrounding the details of his death, but also because of supposed race relations failures. That’s right, the overwhelming majority of the rioters are black, ergo it is the white man’s fault.

As usual this gives those race relations experts ample ammunition to justify their own existence. The head of the Runnymede Trust has, not in the least bit surprisingly, blamed racism. It seems that the reason that these young thugs need to loot the plasma TVs, Apple Mac computers, and expensive clothing is because they have been discriminated against.

Oddly, this kind of thing didn’t happen during the Great Depression, when people faced true abject poverty, repression and staggering unemployment. But then, the likes of Rob Berkeley weren’t around back then to further fuel the victim mentality of certain sections of the community.

Entitlement

Organisations like the Runnymede Trust et al have spent decades telling young black kids and other ethnic minorities that they are in for a life of adversity, and that the Government/white man/police is against them. Then, when these disenfranchised kids hit out or just plain give up trying, they again blame racism and the Government/police/white man for promoting inequality.

Berkeley said:

“Reports earlier this year highlighted that Black men were 8 times more likely to be stopped and searched than white men.”

Not the Blitz, but the day after marauding kids ripped the heart out of Croydon.

A blatant and sickening attempt to excuse the recent violence, failing to point out that according to the prison statistics there are five times more black people in prison, i.e. criminals, than whites per percentage of the population. Indeed, 20% of the prison population is black, but only 2% of the actual population.

Therefore the police are doing their job, by searching people who are most likely to be criminals, and for that matter carry drugs, guns and knives.

Perhaps Berkeley should be asking why so many black people turn to crime, and not why so many blacks are searched. Indeed, he may well discover that he and his ilk promoting their ‘expect inequality always’ agenda, is what is causing the problems.

I would not consider myself an expert in black issues, but I am fairly sure that in modern Britain they are less discriminated against than ever before, so why such a violent and hateful reaction now?

Berkeley also went on to blame a lack of jobs and opportunities and also the schools system, claiming:

“In education there was a 20 point-gap in achievement between Black and White youth. In Haringey schools this year that gap had increased to one of 35 points.”

This seems to be in complete contrast with all the information I have seen on the subject over the past few years. According to the BBC:

BBC News – Poor pupils in struggling schools ‘lag further behind’

At secondary level, white British children in this category lagged behind most other major ethnic groups. For example, they were only half as likely to reach the GCSE target as Bangladeshi children, and also lagged behind Pakistani, Black African, Caribbean and Asian pupils

So white pupils are now the under performers, yet oddly, there are currently no predominately poor white areas rioting.

Regardless of the facts people like Berkeley will be blaming racism and rubbing their hands in glee, foreseeing huge handouts from the contrite Government to ensure that these woeful  events never arise again (at least until further budget cuts; they have to be practical). Even in his article he pointed out that in the US £600 million had been earmarked to combat inequality. So even as people’s homes are burning (and people of all colours), Berkeley is holding out the begging bowl for his cause, along with the caveat that failure to give generously enough will only lead to more such violence in the future.

As nice (and rewarding for equality campaigners) it would be to lay this at the door of racism, it is far more complex than that and frankly race itself has little to do with this.

Liberal Mentality

No, what has caused this is the liberal mentality that pervades the British political system. First we were told that the death penalty should be abolished as it was inhumane.

This was never the consensus, but rather a decision made for the voter, by the people they voted for and against popular opinion. Since then we’ve seen the murder rate increase three-fold. Next came the removal of corporal punishments in schools, in order to protect the children from violence. Then the removal of the right of parents to hit their own children ostensibly to protect children from abuse. Inevitably leading to a situation where parents cannot control their own children, relying on the schools, who also cannot control the children.

Finally there has been the steady emasculation of the justice system. Where criminals are rehabilitated, understood and hugged, rather than punished, which has resulted in our soft touch prisons being no deterrent, let alone punishment, whatsoever. This is startlingly obvious to would-be ruffians from  very young age.

Even the Police Force, or (Police Service as it is now known officially – time to rethink that perhaps) is a toothless beast. Too afraid to confront wrong doers, merely standing by whilst the miscreants steal, pillage and burn.

Once such misbehaviour would, at the very least have resulted in a good braining from the police truncheons for offender, if not the use of water cannon’s, tear gas and rubber bullets.

But that doesn’t fit with the liberal way of doing things, Theresa May, the supposed Home Secretary said:

“The way we police in Britain is not through use of water cannon. The way we police in Britain is through consent of communities.”

Seemingly confusing these riots with the rowdy behaviour of certain individuals at one of her late night garden parties. Where, after politely asking them to leave, the drunkard may make a few bawdy comments, but will eventually leave without much disruption, as they usually have to be up for a high ranking political duties in the morning.

May and the rest of the Government are unconcerned as only the peasants are suffering at this point. She also hopes to reason with them and more bizarrely, get them to consent to going home!

It seems that May is going to continue waiting for the louts, thugs and thieves to get bored and stop, rather than stopping them.

As of yet, only police dogs and horses have been deployed, it seems water cannons are only reserved for the Irish. The police have made no attempt at clearing the streets. This is not solely the fault of the police, but the liberal and ineffective politicians who cannot even carry out one of the basic functions of Government, to protect its people.

Instead, they are letting the rioters have their head, in another example of what has become common place in Britain, giving more thought and protection to the criminal, than to the victims. It seems that the Government believes that using violence on the violent is wrong, better to wait till they wear themselves out, like a toddler’s tantrum.

This has meant that for every looter that manages to get an LCD TV home, ten of his, and even now her, friends want to do the same. After all, there is literally nothing to stop them, no punishment. The police cannot even protect their own police cars, or even police stations. These young criminals may be ruffians and vandals, but they aren’t completely stupid, they are finally starting to realise that the softly softly approach actually means that there is nothing to stop them, at all.

Like a teacher cannot remove them from the classroom for being disruptive, only ask them to leave; the police cannot remove them from the streets, only ask them to leave. They can do what they want, and no one can stop them, as these girls are happy to say.

Spreading Like Wildfire

Because of this inaction the violence and disorder has now spread not only across London, but to other cities in Britain too. And the police reaction to this? A promise to release CCTV footage of the rioters to catch them later, maybe, and a request that parents call in their children.

This water cannon was used less than a month ago in Northern Ireland. It appears however that water cannon, plastic bullets and tear gas are only used against the Irish, or perhaps only against white people.

A heavy hand is needed to discourage further rioting and pillaging. Briton’s up and down the country and crying out on social networks, the internet and local news for the army, for tough measures and for swift and decisive action.

But that is not the liberal mentality, which advocates first and foremost an understanding of the brute, then placation and finally all out surrender. May and the Government have literally surrendered the streets of Britain to the thugs and are hoping that they get bored, or stay home to play on their stolen gadgets.

The Government and police force have shown themselves up to be ineffective and limp wristed. They have spent decades trying to understand criminals and make them see the error of their ways, believing them all, at their core, to have the same moral integrity as the Oxbridge political elite. And this situation is a result of that.

The Riot Act

In the old days, back when Britain used a heavy hand to deal with criminals, and unsurprisingly the crime and murder rates were very low compared to today, they used the Riot Act to clear the streets.

The rioters were read the Riot Act:

“Our Sovereign Lord the King chargeth and commandeth all persons, being assembled, immediately to disperse themselves, and peaceably to depart to their habitations, or to their lawful business, upon the pains contained in the act made in the first year of King George, for preventing tumults and riotous assemblies. God Save the King!”

Once the Act was read, the rioters had one hour to disperse, or would be forcibly removed, either by the police or local people. The last point is an important one, the Act ensured that anyone aiding in the removal of rioters were not liable for any injuries or loss of life.

Fortunately the people of Britain, at least in some areas, retain a back bone. And there are already reports of communities heading into the streets and confronting the rioters and driving them away from their neighbourhoods.

However, as the riot act was repealed in 1973, they are literally playing Russian Roulette with their lives. Apart from possible harm they may face at the hands of the rioters, should they injure a rioter, or even kill one, defending themselves or their property, they will go to prison.

It is an inexcusable situation that the people of Britain now find themselves in, and all thanks to successive feckless Governments. The streets have been taken over by violent thugs, burning and pillaging, yet the Government and Police are incapable or unwilling to take any action.

Even now it is too late. London has a population of 8 million, yet just 30,000 police officers. If the these people want to riot throughout Britain, there is becoming less and less chance that the 150,000 police officers in the whole of the UK will be enough to contain them. The army has just 110,000 men, and many of those are abroad.

The Government should have nipped this in the bud, instead they have sat back, and wished it away.

Instead it will ultimately be left to the citizens to protect their homes, their places or work and themselves from the hooligans and people will die, but in doing so, they will inevitably be punished by the very Government that has failed them.

Cadbury Forced to Apologise to Naomi Campbell

Suggestions that the white babbles are meant to represent some of the blood diamonds Naomi Campbell received from Charles Taylor are likewise spurious

Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson ‘instrumental’ in forcing Cadbury to apologise to Naomi Campbell over ‘racist’ chocolate advert | Mail Online

It has been revealed that the black rights group behind the successful push to have Cadbury publicly apologise to the supermodel received ‘instrumental’ support from the civil rights legends after writing to them,

Well, it seems that you cannot stand in the way of the African diaspora. Cadbury have been forced into a humiliating apology, or face the wrath of the black man – everywhere.

Say, that’s a nice company….

At least that is the gist of what Sharpton and Jackson were threatening. Clearly, black people are black first, national borders, common sense and fairness etc, come last, if at all. So much for multiculturalism then, the only ones who seem to stick to nationality rather than race and culture, are white people. 

This was never about race, as I said before. This was about Naomi Campbell throwing a hissy fit for her name being used in a campaign that she wasn’t paid for; Campbell is nothing if not mercenary. As for Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, they just don’t like black people being portrayed negatively, exemplified by Al Sharpton’s group stating:

“The reverend felt this was deeply offensive. Naomi is an icon and has worked very hard, so to be compared to food or an object is offensive.”

Sharpton: "Say, that's a nice company you have there, shame if something were to happen to it." Company: "Here's a $100,000." Sharpton: "Boycott called off."

Nothing racial then, just the fact that she was compared to a food or object or was it that Cadbury/Kraft were not handing out ‘donations’? Sharpton and his organisation of course being quite infamous for its ‘shakedowns’, demanding money from organisations, lest they face a black protest and be highlighted as racist. Very reminisent of a mafia don running a protection racket. Of course when a company refuses donations, his sheep like followers carry out a boycott until Sharpton’s pockets are suitably lined. 

Hypocrisy

His group then went on to state via Tamika Mallory:

“It’s yet another example of corporate insensitivity towards minorities, and proof that advertising rooms are still largely devoid of diversity..”

If we're talking confectionery, I'd liken Tamika Mallory to a Curly Wurly; nicely wrapped but twisted and full of gaping holes on the inside.

A tad bit hypocritical, considering the board of Al Sharpton’s group, National Action Network is made up entirely of black people, no whites, no hispanics, no Chinese, Asian, Korean or any other ethnicity, whatsoever. 

Call me old fashioned but I find a group, solely set up to further the interests of one race, over all others, well – racist. Also this group claims to help those suffering social of poverty, even thought the vast majority of those in poverty are white, as far as I know it doesn’t help white folks. 

In the US even fellow African Americans have labelled Al Sharpton a racial arsonist. 

The threats however clearly did the trick, as Cadbury have issued an apology for any offence caused, according to their statement:

“We have been in discussions with Naomi’s solicitors and can confirm that they have accepted our apology on her behalf as a conclusion to this issue.”

Reading between the lines it sounds as though Naomi Campbell has been suitably recompensed and Cadbury’s have learned a hard lesson. Never make mention of a black person without their express permission and suitable payment made, otherwise they will be branded racist. 

 

Naomi Campbell Causes a Storm

Suggestions that any of the clothing in this Marc Jacobs ensemble are chocolate coloured are racist and will not be entertained

Naomi Campbell in race row over Cadbury chocolate | Independent

Cadbury is facing the prospect of a black consumer boycott after it compared Naomi Campbell to a chocolate bar in a new advertising campaign. 

Well, it has been a while since the fashion industry’s favourite diva threw a wobbly and accused someone of racism – at least publicly, but the wait is over.

The last time she started screaming that everyone was racist, was back in 2008 when, having lost her bags at Heathrow, she demanded that the pilot get out and find them!

Campbell brings out the big guns

This time though, things are infinitely more serious, she has even wheeled out her mother to stand up for her, who helpfully pointed out:

“This is the 21st century, not the 1950s.”

The question is, where was she when her daugther was handing out beatings to her staff, police officers and appearing in court? She could have used her helpful observation then to point out to her daughter that we don’t treat staff like that in the 21st Century, this isn’t the 1950s! Indeed where was her mum throughout her childhood when she should have been teaching her respect for other people?

Her mother also said:

“Do these people think they can insult black people and we just take it?”

By these people she clearly means white people, who obviously didn’t taken into account her daughter’s delicate sensibilities. Ironically, on Kraft’s homepage they have a black man drinking a hot beverage, probably coffee, perhaps even hot chocolate. 

Rent an outrage

My two favourite rabble rousers are also mentioned here. Apparently the head of Operation Black Vote, an exceedingly optimistic Simon Woolly has written to Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson to ask them to ‘mobilise’ the USA’s black population, something many in that country have been trying to do for years, not least Sharpton & Jackson Master Demagogues (no outrage too big, too small, or too silly). 

Suggestions that the white baubbles are meant to represent some of the blood diamonds Naomi Campbell received from Charles Taylor are likewise spurious

I can’t wait to hear Messrs Sharpton & Jackson vent their spleen on this one. 

Woolley also went on to claim:

“Racism in the playground starts with black children being called ‘chocolate bar’.”

Really Mr Woolley? You have research to back up this assertion? In my experience racism tends to start with far worse than that, and in my day, the only kid that was called a chocolate bar, was one with blond hair and glasses. 

He then bizarrely went on to add:

“The Eurocentric joke is not funny to black people.”

 Do I detect a hint of racism in that remark? The irony of someone like Woolley complaining about racism on the one hand, and then making remarks like that, all whilst running (or at least being part of) an organisation dedicated to advancing the cause of people with a particular colour skin (and only people of that colour), against those who are not of that skin colour, seems lost on him, if not on me. 

Lee Jasper, a father of nine and head of many black organisations also got in on the act, stating:

“This issue is not just about the insult to Naomi Campbell. It’s about how these companies treat black people in general. Part of the problem is that they don’t see it as offensive.”

Clearly we get to the crux of the matter, calling Naomi Campbell a diva. You see people like Jasper, can never countenance a negative portrayal of a black person. Ironic considering that Lee Jasper is infamous for not only sending lecherous and suggestive emails to a work colleague, and then resigning because of it, but was also investigated after half a million pounds went missing and as to why millions of pounds of tax payers money was spent on projects linked to Jasper’s friends (all of whom were black) whilst he was London Mayor’s head of equalities. 

These hypocrites are the kind of people that get angry at chess, because white moves first. 

Money makes Campbell’s world go round

I think what has really annoyed the ageing model Naomi Campbell, in the winter of her modelling career, when she knows that there is only so much that botox and collagen can achieve against the ravages of time, a well known company and brand has basically used her name and reputation, without suitable remuneration. I am sure that on seeing the advert her first thought was to call her lawyer to find out if she could sue and on discovering she could not, she decided to once again play the race card to get an apology and the advert pulled. 

A short call to a black activist group would have been all it would have taken to set this band wagon in motion.  

One day Naomi Campbell may be a real victim of racial discrimination, but like the boy who cried wolf, who’d believe her?

Human Rights = Get Out of Jail Free Card

One hopes that unlike poor vision; idiocy and criminality do not run in Wayne Bishop's family

BBC News – Jailed burglar Wayne Bishop freed to care for children

A burglar from Nottingham has been freed from jail on appeal so he can care for his five children.

Wayne Bishop, 33, was jailed for eight months for breaking into a rugby club and crashing into a police car.

Well after only serving six weeks inside, this criminal has been let off, so that he can look after his children. Now every criminal in the land is ringing their solicitor to see if they can also use this unbelieveable defence for their criminality.

Once again it begs the question as to just whose rights, the so called Human Rights Laws are protecting? If the state really had any concern for the rights of the children, they’d have taken them into care. 

The bespectacled miscreant has demonstrated to his children that actions don’t really have serious consequences as long as one has a lot of children and no job. 

Murders, Terrorists and Torturers Welcome!

This comes in the same week that a HIV positive former Mugabe torturer is told that he cannot be deported back to Zimbabwe, as that too would breach his human rights! Ironic seeing as he had scant regard for anyone else’s human rights as he pulled their teeth out and otherwise tortured and killed them – for years! 

It is also shocking that he came to the UK on a visitor visa eleven years ago and has been leaving here even since, and only recently has the Government naively tried to deport him. Does anyone ever get deported from Britain? 

It seems that in Britain, you can stay no matter what heinous crimes you have committed, or what danger you pose the ever decreasing innocent members of British society. Is there another country anywhere in the world that behaves in this way?
