As an English ex-pat, the murder of three young children and many other injured kids sickens me to see what is going on in the United Kingdom. The knife crime occurred in the seaside town of Southport in the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton in Merseyside, England.
A seventeen-year-old boy murdered two girls initially while stabbing eight others and two adult supervisors who were rushed to hospital after police arrived. Six were critically wounded, and then one of them died hours later from the sustained injuries. These girls aged between six and nine were attending a Taylor Swift dance class.
The community were maddened by what had happened and the three children’s horrific death. They needed to know who was behind the attack, however authorities were using the excuse that the attacker was under eighteen, and therefore as a minor he was protected from disclosing such information, and they couldn’t give his name. In other words, they were using corporate jargon and consequently the local community were enraged.
According to a video found online, an expert in policing said that nowadays policemen have university qualifications, and seem to be on another level to ordinary people causing difficulty in communication with the community which creates discontent and ultimately outrage from bad rapport.
In the evening a riot took place by local men. Policemen were injured and a police van was set on fire! Additonally areas of Southend conveyed upset with rioting and there was an incident on Southend beach when six thugs were arrested for attacking each other with machettes.
The ordinary English man is appalled by all the violence being seen in the United Kingdom, as cases are on the rise. This particular incident killing young beautiful innocent children would make any British subject mad.
This criminal literally went overboard to wake Britain up!
Take care!
