"Well done to everyone in Bristol today - probably not the best way to get rid of that statue of Edward Colston but it’s definitely opened up a lot of eyes to Britain’s involvement in slavery. Top work." Agreed, time for that kind of shit to go. | |||

"it needed to go but not the way it went it sends out the wrong message .. bristol and other cities that were used for slavery need to be changes lots of roads and building renamed for starters ... " So basically you want to erase history? What has already happened and changed a long time ago. You want people to not know what happened, slowly we are become China where freedom of information is limited and changed to suit a few people. | |||

"The problem with these protests is that it's increasing the risk of the virus spreading, and studies are now showing the virus is more dangerous for black and Asian people. So, aren't we actually just increasing the risk of death to black people by clumping together during this pandemic?? It seems counter productive to the cause!?" couldnt agree more!! I also wanted to say this but couldnt word it right!! | |||

Yes all the old arguments for changing street names such as; Whiteladies Road and Blackboy Hill will re-emerge.. " | |||

"And how much more is it now going to cost Bristol council and the general public to fish it out the water safely, preserve it, get it to museum, find, chase and prosecute the (idiots) who threw it and not to mention clean and tidy up all the rubbish they left behind during their "quiet" protest!! Oh and let's hope we dont have to spend our precious and dwindling nhs resources and hospital beds treating them all when they all get c.19 that we are meant to all be staying in for or in groups of less than 6 not 6000!!! " I believe Bristol City Council spent £50,000 of your money on promoting the demonstration ... | |||

"Begs the question " why in 2020 was it there in the first place?"" Exactly! When the American solders tore down the Sattue of Saddam Hussein there was celebration so why are people angry now? Admittedly,it is a criminal offence but it's also offensive to celebrate slave traders and just adds to the instutional racism that is ever present. | |||

"Strange how we keep hearing about Britains' involvement in the deplorable slave trade, but nothing about all the British people who were enslaved by - Italians, Arabs, Norwegians, French and others. Yes slavery is wrong and vile, but remember, Britain was following the lead of MANY other countries, some of whom enslaved Britons." Slavery is very prevalent today. Look at Libya and the Middle East. Never seems to get a mention sadly. | |||

"Well done to everyone in Bristol today - probably not the best way to get rid of that statue of Edward Colston but it’s definitely opened up a lot of eyes to Britain’s involvement in slavery. Top work." Get a life buttercup ! It's called history ....slavery as been around for every color of the human species ! Since the stone age. | |||

No we petitioned for over 10 years and millions of signatures to be ignored. They can now decide what to put there instead " Is the statue specifically celebrating his involvement in slavery ? He was part of the company for about 10 years. Outside of that he was an MP, did a lot of charity work, establishing alms houses, hospital school as examples. The British history is full of mistakes, as a nation we’ve made lots of mistakes -damn we have a whole museum of artifacts we’ve stolen from others and have the cheek to call it the British museum. It’s a history that shouldn’t be erased but in fact talked about. Make the generations question who is that person, why is that street name called what it is, then they learn what has past and teach them not to repeat it | |||

"Begs the question " why in 2020 was it there in the first place?"" Was my exact thought also. Should have been taken down years - if not decades - ago. And no that doesn't mean erasing history, obviously it's existence should be documented and remain a matter of public record. That doesn't mean we have to leave a statue up like it's something to be proud of. Let's leave statues for those things and those figures that are actually worthy of such display. | |||

Might one take that argument up with the us and UK military forces when they bombed the shit out the ancient building in Baghdad ,one of the corner stones of miderm civilisation. Just because something his part of our history doesn't mean it should be celebrated. Maybe an idea would be collecting the artifiactes and placing them into central place. Instead of being a shrine in open spaces but instead as reminded as to how far we have come when slavery was widespread | |||

"Ghandi next he had some profoundly racist views. " Gandhi was a paedophile who slept naked with his own grand niece to test his abstinence from sex. That's not an opinion it's a fact from her mouth. He had disgusting views of Africans and was part on annex of east and west Pakistan that lead to a civil war that killed over 3 million with the creation of Bangladesh and Pakistan. It also didn't help when the UK pulled out of India they gave the new government 1 month to get ready. Sounds like the uk has form with this piss poor brexit planning | |||

"Good god fab truly is a cross section of society and it's idiots today..... Idiots?" Yeah, simple folk. Society is made up of a spectrum of mental capability in various subjects from simple folk through to brain surgeons and elite decision makers, yet our voices on fab carry equal weight and often simple shouts louder because it has no fear of ridicule or doesn't know better. One of the sadder points of a democracy, but without an it we can't have equality... I'm an expert in chemicals and human behaviour, but I know nothing about civil engineering or nursing, and I try to recognize that and keep it in check when I open my mouth, innit... | |||

".... we celebrate WW1/2 every year. Theres always something about the holocaust. Who even remembers black history month.. Beyond black artists and some black sports players; what do people know about black british people in science and academia? Or innovators. How much do you know about the black people who fought in british wars? The affects of the windrush generation? How white british people used the south african apartheid system for their own better life? " This! I’m white, and fucking privileged because of it. I don’t know the answers to most of these questions, and I’m going to try and educate myself. But you’re so bloody right | |||

Over the year's they are all guilty of supporting 3rd world modern day slavery ! With buying clothes etc from UK shop's made in the slum's of Calcutta etc . Calcutta you mean Kolkata...old boy You do know Indian doesn't belong the empire anymore? It's also the main financial hub of India and most of the employment is in that sector. They even have running water and sanitation don't you know. You mean Bangladesh, you want to see what happens a LEDC country when it main ascot of economy fails just look how people have 100s of miles just to be fed.

With that said I remember in my time in Bristol it having a diverse high street with even some independent vintage clothing shops. Bunching up an entire group of people and saying they are one characterization is literally the definition of racism Well what ever that bunch of people pulling that statue down ! It was out and out vandalism! You wouldn't be best please if a bunch of people came around and pulled half your house down ...because they disagreed with you . Your eloquent response to a logical dissemination of your racism is "Well what ever"(sic) If my house was built by slaves and their descendants tore it down. I wouldn't be surprised Please don't accuse me of being racist! I'm as much a slave as the next man ! Are you?" Are you what ? | |||

"Well done to everyone in Bristol today - probably not the best way to get rid of that statue of Edward Colston but it’s definitely opened up a lot of eyes to Britain’s involvement in slavery. Top work. Get a life buttercup ! It's called history ....slavery as been around for every color of the human species ! Since the stone age. So we should celebrate slavery in the centre of a city? No we petitioned for over 10 years and millions of signatures to be ignored. They can now decide what to put there instead So you think it's acceptable to destroy historical artefacts... Just because you are on some sort of a selfright moral crusade !

"Strange how we keep hearing about Britains' involvement in the deplorable slave trade, but nothing about all the British people who were enslaved by - Italians, Arabs, Norwegians, French and others. Yes slavery is wrong and vile, but remember, Britain was following the lead of MANY other countries, some of whom enslaved Britons." So if someone breaks into your house you'll retaliate by breaking in someone else's who hasn't done you wrong?? | |||
