63 year old man stabbed to death for enquiring if a baby was okay.

At the risk of being accused yet again of posting a racial thread, I thought that this killing should be addressed, independent of the fact that the alleged killer happened to be black, I would have also picked it out if he had happened to have been white.

What is this country coming to if a person can not be concerned about a baby's welfare, without the parent going home to pick up a knife, only then return to seek out this person so as to stab him to death?

Even if the murdered man had gone up to the baby's parents and in an aggressive way told them to keep their baby quiet, (which seems more likely) he didn't deserve to be killed.

If the alleged killer HAD been white, would you have even mentioned that fact?

I only mentioned he was black because if I hadn't you and others would have still been on my tail, with your usual inflammatory comments, I cannot win, no matter from whatever angle I approach such news items.

Have we come to such a stage that one cannot mention a person's skin colour, unless of course it happens to be white?

Do you think there's any evidence that you prioritise or pick out stories involving black or Muslim people, aog ? Just wondering on what basis people on here would think you do.

//Yes but the more we hear of such cases, surely it makes one think twice//

How many times in the last year have you heard of such cases?

In what way is the colour of the person relevant?

The moral of the story is keep your nose out of others business. I certainly do. If I saw someone being attacked or in need of help, I have learnt to cross over the road and get on with my life and encourage others to do the same.

It really is not worth the hassle. You only have to see the many stories of people helping then being accused of rape or assaulting a child or worse, losing your life.

I feel sorry for the mans family in this case and hope justice is done in hell for the killer regardless if he is brown orange or black scarlet blue.
