Woman in South Shields, batters another woman, and racially abuses her, the woman was a native of Glasgow, police charged her and the judge gave her two years in jail, for assault and the verbal abuse

I and my brother get racially abused here in Glasgow the Procurator Fiscal wouldnt prosecute the moron who abused my brother and I 3 yrs ago, so much for a tough stance on racial abuse by the SNP!!!!

Link to the South Shields Case Tomma... Were the women Scottish/English... or Caucasian/Ethnic?

Not saying its here, but far too many people raise the "racial' card... when... it simply isnt racial at all.

Seems that you cant have a disagreement with someone now of a different race/religion/colour without it been racially motivated.

No idea, I'm lost. Damn Sat nav!

Each case will I'm sure be _iewed by its own merits by the court and if a judge deems it not to be racial abuse he must have had a reason for doing so.

But without full facts cant really comment any further.

But no one should be abused in any way shape or form for any reason.

Depends on how things go as to whether it's racial. If it's just a fight, then it's a plain fight, but if you start to use racial/ethnic/religious slurs, then it becomes a hate crime.

As much as I am against the SNP and Salmond.... I cant really see what the SNP have to do with this.

Yes, they are the governing party at the time but the laws set down in Scotland (and england) were there many years before the SNP were in power. The police and the justice system were just following guidance/laws already set.

If you think that the law is better in England and you would of had a better experience there... Theres a simple solution.......

Nope.... I meant you should become an MP and get it changed.... with all the fault been blamed on the SNP and Salmond...maybe you could make a change?

Of course I wouldnt say go and live in England, wouldnt want anyone thinking that was racist.

Im fairly happy with the last 5 years of SNP government, I used to vote labour but I cannot stand Johann Lamont and seriously cannot see her doing any good for Scotland.

I consider the Country badly run due to Westminster, Cameron, Miliband, Clegg, Ed Balls, George Osborne and all the other millionaire cronies who use their MP roll as a "status symbol".

The Scottish government is limited to what it can do and also limited with the funds it receives.

If you think things are tough now, just wait until all the miss-guided vote no and win the better together campaign on 18th September, the following few years will be hell for Scotland and Westminster will crucify us, wait and watch.

And if any Tories here do you seriously think Ruth Davidson could do better

I will be voting yes on the 18th as I believe in the Scottish people, regardless of who is voted into power the following year.

And one thing the SNP has done, is deliver the promise of the vote for Independence,

Do you really think Westminster will allow a vote on Europe, lets wait and see, I suspect we will wait a long long time

I don't like the SNP but Labour? Tired of the establishment as they no longer represent you whether you like it or not. We need something different and rid ourselves of them once and for all. They'll attempt to cling on at whatever cost.

It is wrong what you experienced but it's nothing to do with the SNP likely the people handling it.

I take it the case was thrown out by the Procurators Fiscal office as a no proceedings? Doesn't matter if there is all the evidence in the report confirming a good case, they have to consider various factors, is this in the best public interest, what is the likelihood of a successful prosecution, what is the court caseload currently.......you get my drift. It's not that they don't take the case seriously. The case the OP originally referred to involved, I believe, a physical assault. Being verbally abused is not pleasant in the slightest, but there was no actual bodily harm. Big difference between the two situations and not a fair comparison IMO.

easy tiger

just for clarity, the comments by the op have nothing to do with the indy ref, they are an attempt to link a decision made within the justice system to a political party.

if your response had made any mention of this then it would be justifiable on this thread.

while you are correct about being entitled to express your _iews, there comes with that the obligation to do so at an appropriate time and in an appropriate place, in this case an indy ref thread.

'Conduct, words or practices which disadvantage or advantage people because of their colour, culture or ethnic origin. It can be subtle or overt, intentional or unwitting.'

Now I'm confused - since both the victim and the perpetrator(s) were white and british - where is the racial aggravation?

Dreadful incident I agree, but racism?

Lets keep the names for the very heinous crimes they are there to address please folks. Racism is a dreadful crime - a fight with name calling between two white Brits on a Glasgow Street is just that - assault/Breach of the peace.

This was a Breach of the Peace, plain and simple, not racial at all, hence why it was treated as such.

There are too many people that jump on the racial bandwagon to either provoke a response or inflame a less minor incident

Totally agree.

The racism card is played far too many times and in completely the wrong circumstances. Thus, it waters down any genuine complaints of racism that is abhorrent.
