Nightmarish.
As if the rioting and deaths weren't bad enough, the estate itself is one brutal backdrop!
I use to go to moselle school. We couldn't go to school due to the windows being smashed. I believe we was off school for 2 weeks.
RIP Police Officer Keith Blakelock
RIP Cynthia Jarret
the blue station car was mine
I hear the police occupied that estate for a few months after that weekend in October 1985. Did they actually kick everyone out of their own homes at the time? Don’t get what they mean what it was reported that the police took the farm.
More freedom than today sisters
Where was the fire brigade?
Looks like a very liberal and colorful neighborhood.
and you sound like an asshat
Faceless are always the bravest on their keyboards!
Hahaha ever since Blakelock was got you're too scared to come back.
@Replying Is futile Sounds like pure bullshit. And these comments before... :) Racist card, yeah, please come up with something newer. :) I have a secret tip for all of you: try to act like a human...
@Replying Is futile Tell me why did you get beaten there?
The question I would like to ask is why did the police think it was going to end well when they tormented, aggravated, criminalised, dehumanised and forced those people in a corner because of the colour of their skin, did they not think about Newton's Third Law.
They never did any of that though did they.? These people were never wanted. They expect better treatment than us.

MIDNIGHT DARK EN
The violence shows why they
were profiled to start with.
All the scum protesters should
have been rounded up and jailed.
It wasn't all of the police that were racist and they were on the front line and saw how high the crime was which obviously effected their judgement and attitudes towards the criminal minority.
Nor was every black person anti police or had a siege mentality or were involved in crime, but regardless the slaughter of a 45 year old 'community bobby' with no riot control experience as well as the attempted murder of 2 or 3 other coppers wasn't ever going to solve anything.
This event probably lost the black community a lot of sympathy and support from many typical white people in the UK and it's still not forgotten by the police, the only thing it might have achieved is a sense of revenge against the police but it didn't help anyone from what I can see.
The UK is not the deep south of America and its not a racist country when compared to the rest of the world, but it shouldn't have ever got to the point of wanting to murder police officers for revenge. Its a real shame that it had to go so far.
Nah, the people there acted poorly and as such they got subjected to police attention.
