Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Noticed yesterday coming down Lordship Lane towards Wood Green

On Roundway Road Barrier

Is it Council supplied or Approved ?

Find it Offensive. As All Lives Matter

Does it Matter

To Black or White

That Bob is a Belated Banner

On HarringayOnline's site?

It's the Council's All-Black 

Unlighted Road Crossings

He shd look out for

As All Lives Matter:

We'd all be rightly ruggled

Without Bob's poetic headsups.

What a poem OAE!

And Bob I find your ignorance offensive. 

Hi Bob

Heard a really

Surprising statistic. 

That those fighting for

All Lives Matter, rarely mean

All Lives, E. G. Refugees from Calais. What do you think? 

"All Lives Matter". Qualifying "Black Lives Matter".

Reminds me of something...  ah yes:

"All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." 

Thank you George Orwell, in 1946.

Whatever you think, it is relevant and this thread and the other one you started weeks ago show how relevant it still is and how much ignorance there still is. That's why these banners and graffiti are still allowed.. Do a simple Google to read more about why it's not about All Lives Matter but about Black Lives Matter. Nowhere does anyone say that white people don't matter. You matter and we know. But now is the time to stress once more that not only white lives matter..black lives matter (too). It's a serious matter. This isn't an ad for a circus or local run or film night. No one seems to complain whenever these predominantly white middle class events are advertised everywhere. Yet here we are again complaining about this relevant cause. 

Sometimes Bob is

offended by Black Banners

crosser about coloured crossings

but always in despair with what we've voted for

There are a few around I guess for now it's not the end of the world if there's a bit of graffitti and banners around, they will get removed at some point.

What's more annoying is we still can't visit and hug our elders, or protest against anything else as it's still against the rules. There needs to be the same standard applied to everyone or else that's how resentment happens.

There's no point fighting one rightful resentment but end up causing another or people won't listen to the message.

Funny how people who chant ,ALL lives matter' are curiously silent when those lives are crossing the channel in tiny boats and dying to do so.

Of course all lives matter, but the experience of many black people is that their lives seem not to matter as much.  That’s why.

Bob, I'm sure your views are not intended to be offensive, but I think it's got to the stage where they've crossed the line and I think the majority of those who are on HoL will find them questionable to say the least.

I won't go into the issues with the use of the 'All Lives Matter' slogan here. There's plenty on the web.

But, I'm afraid your last comment tipped the balance and I found it pretty unaccptable. So. I'm afraid I've deleted it.

Thanks. There were too many problematic assertions in there to even dissect.
