Rick Moranis

67yr old Rick Moranis gets randomly attacked in New York by what appears to be a black man. No doubt it will get a fair bit of media attention over there. The question is, will BLM dare say anything about it. After all only black lives matter and it's obvious from the video that he's actually the victim of a violent attack from Moranis headbutting his fist.

I think the point is really, that ALL lives matter ( well, apart from kiddy fiddlers ) and that nutters come in all shapes, sizes, colours and creeds

The BLM lot seem to miss that bit completely

I find that these days they’re increasingly altering every eventuality to suit their own needs. :mad:

Great bit of reporting from the completely objective BBC. Typical left-wing idiots totally ignore that the alleged assailant appears to be black yet if someone like, say, Samuel L. Jackson was clobbered by a white thug then there'd be more references to colour than a fuckin' Dulux catalogue. God, I f'ing detest that organisation!

Just noticed that Sky avoid the colour issue, too.

At 5ft.6 and 67 years old, not exactly a threat was he.:rolleyes:
BLM should hang their feckin heads in shame if they support this kind of shite.
Stop closing ranks and seek this twat out for a lengthy prison spell.

I fully agree John, all lives matter. What BLM symbolises is really "I'm alright Jack screw you". They have no interest in equality for all just that they get preferential treatment. That's why I have no time for them, either all are equal or no one is.

Interesting point, Footballers taking to the knee & wanting compensation for their ancestors being slaves yet they themselves are bought & sold to the highest bidder & told what to do by their clubs.

"'Told what to do by their clubs"

You are joking, aren't you?

Bosman put all the power in the hands of the players.

Fact.
Only at the end of contract.
I recall Alan Smith when he left Leeds for Manure, he was asked why, he replied “I had no choice” similar when Chris Kamara left Leeds, he was warming up before a game & one of my mates said “don’t go Chris” he replied, “not my decision” he looked really gutted to be going.

Same when Robert Earnshaw and Graham Kavanagh were sold to West Brom and Wigan, respectively. Neither player wanted to leave the Bluebirds, neither had a choice.

When Ronaldo claimed he was being treated like a slave when Real Madrid wanted to buy him, I initially thought he was taking the piss. The only difference of significance is that these ‘slaves’ get paid ludicrous amounts of money for doing something that the majority of them enjoy.

Despite wanting to throw off all the shackles of their historical backgrounds, have you noticed how many of them have massive chains around their necks - a bit ironic really I thought :)

Don't know if you have seen 'The Fall and Rise of Leeds United' on Sky catch up - a rather different story told about Smith's departure.

I don't agree with the 'only at end of contract' comment - look at Ozil, sitting on his arse earning a kings ransom running his contract down knowing he will be able to get a massive signing on fee when he walks away from the club that he is failing to serve.

Alan Smith’s mother used to work in the creche on visits day at Wakefield Prison, she told us that he was heartbroken, his gesture of donating his signing on fee substantiates this

Ozil. Twat. What really pisses me off about him, and many like him, is that if any of us performed at our places of work like that, we’d be out the door faster than a big fast thing. How come footballers aren’t shown the door for that sort of petulant, recalcitrant behaviour?
