Woman beaten up by a gang of men in Brighton.

Should be some decent CCTV images available in East Street and surrounding areas. Hopefully they'll be in the nick for Christmas.......and a long time beyond.

Personally speaking something doesn't ring true about this story , but here's a quick question , if it was 4 white blokes beating up a black woman do you think it would be reported as a racist attack?

Would depend whether there was something to suggest the motive was racism - such as them being heard giving her a hard time about her race. Otherwise, no. If someone beats someone up who just happens to be from a different race, that doesn't make it a racist attack.

It generally does when it's the other way round...

If it was my daughter i would not give a flying f*** what 'genre' of attack it was so long as the c***s where caught and I could find out what nick they were in and what day they were being released.
Whether it was sexist, racist, transgender non-binary hate crime or what colour the w*nkers were is immaterial, none of these buzzword bingo labels help the victim at all.

Yep , ridiculous and out of touch to suggest otherwise , I'd love people like [MENTION=331]crasher[/MENTION] to experience a bit of black on white racism and watch how quickly their tunes would change.

I'm with you on the first bit. Not so sure re the second as it would have been reported the same way for now I reckon.

Generally, the usual suspects on here will try and find a racial aspect to further their agendas.

I reckon it was an ISIS terrorist attack!

 

[alfredmizen]

I certainly don't believe it was a random attack , 4 blokes don't just decide to beat up a woman.

Generally the usual apologists on here will try and find some sort of excuse.

Went out in Brighton a couple of Saturday ago haven't been for a while people blatantly selling drugs on the street getting harassed by all and sundry I go out in London a lot and never get hassled at all tbh, Brighton is going down hill rapidly it's a terrible attack but I'm not surprised.

Terrible act of cowardice for four men to attack a lone women. I am surprised it has not received more press coverage.

This has crossed my mind. The hospital would have reported the victim's admittance, but I do wonder if selling drugs was involved.

I don't either. Just imho I think it would have been reported differently or not at all

Please post an example of such a thing because I think I missed that.

Or are you just making things up to further your agenda?

 

[Billy the Fish]

It's a bit ridiculous to speculate on this, one way or the other. There should be loads of cctv in that area so hopefully they catch them.

I know her. On Facebook she is adamant it was completely random.
