Are you being serious or is it a wind up ?
Be that as it may, the kid still hasn't done anything wrong (that we have any clear evidence of), so stop your petty little which hunt and subsequent political point scoring.

Unless he was caught singing you can't pin it on him. If they're his friends though it's probably time to find less moronic imbecilesto hang around with before he is caught. Then again it looks like he votes UKIP so he's probably a wrongun.

I think it is abhorrent as most people do but it is a different ball game singling yourself out to 30 knuckledraggers he was propably part of a group of. In the real World he was not going to stand up for him was he ? Would I, who knows, would you ? who knows, easy to say behind a keyboard

It depends a lot on how much time you have to think - well certainly in my case. A few years back my wife and I were on a crowded Metro, pushed up against the door, when a gang of four or five guys 'steamed' through the carriage grabbing peoples bags and wallets. One guy pushed the elderly man next to me and grabbed his wallet - without thinking I just grabbed his arm and a few seconds later we pulled into a station - he let go of the wallet and I let go of him and that was the end of that.
It was only because it all happened right next to me that I intervened instinctively - otherwise I wouldn't have got involved - looking back on what happened I probably was foolish to act the way I did!
I like to think if I had been standing by the door of that train when the black gent tried to board that again, instinctively, I would have intervened.

I think they are completely different circumstances to be fair

Good intention I`m sure but Intervention may well have escalated what was a pretty non event into something ugly.....No one harmed.... In this instance surely discretion best option...

Right, so because there was no physical violence (though being pushed off a train is completely unacceptable) then nothing was wrong with what these CJTCs did?
You are a pathetic excuse for a human being for harbouring these views. Does it not cross your mind that mentally & emotionally such treatment can damage a person? Do you not consider that letting this behaviour go unpunished will only embolden these low lives?
People have the right to live their lives unhindered by others, just so long as they behave lawfully & reasonably. What gives these Neanderthals the right to treat a stranger this way? I'll tell you shall I...absolutely nothing.
Whatever excuses they or you come up with are completely unacceptable for singling out another person for discriminatory behaviour purely due to their appearance, gender, sexual orientation or disability. Those that do discriminate need to brought to book EVERY TIME it happens.
The way those supporters were acting, not to mention the way they look, I'm glad football is becoming sanitised.

I'm surprised that you're surprised, cowards rarely step in to these situations.............

The point I was making was that, certainly in my case, there are times people act without thought when they see something happening that they believe is wrong. I do think that were I stood by that train door I wouldn't have remained quiet and would have said something.
Quite possibly it would have aggravated the situation - as could have grabbing the thief mentioned in my earlier post. The similarity between the two incidents though is that I see both as equally wrong, so why act in one case and not the other.

I'll join you with that one.
Most of them probably have never had a fight in their lives. Why is it so mad to stand up to bullies?

Why should he have to? Who gave these thugs the authority to decide who gets on?
Their behaviour is that of cowardly bullies. Normal expectation would be to make space. if there was no space then politely state that's the case & suggest trying another carriage.
Looks like there was space on that carriage to me. The racist chanting only enforces the view that their reaction may have been different to someone of a different skin colour.
They don't have the authority or legal mandate to behave this way. It is wrong.
