Re: Beaten up
I hope they have enough evidence and can get the b''''''''ds that have done this to your son. God it is awful, but to happen in BROAD DAYLIGHT is mad!!!!!
you are not telling me no-one saw anything......more to the point probably did but won't speak up, which is just as bad as the attack itself. Good luck

I just thought it was at night Ged,as Slinky say's I find it hard to believe no one saw anything!! best not say much more Ged as if it goes to court it may harm your sons case,I used to watch a show called Cops, it was a fly on the wall show where they follow police doing their beat in the US,one show had an LA cop showing how the streets were run by gangs,and how many killing and shootings took place every night between rival gangs,we will be following this sort of thing over here in time if were not careful!

Re: Beaten up
I somehow missed this thread earlier. I'd just like to add my sympathy Ged and hope your son recovers. It's awful that people don't want to get involved by coming forward as witnesses but sadly this seems to be the case these days. I know from personal experience that even so-called "friends" can be very wary of getting involved. That this happened in broad daylight is appalling and if something isn't done then it's only going to get worse. Gangs like this will be above the law and running Accrington before long.
As for racism, racism is racism whether it's white against black, black against white, brown against pink or green against purple. In fact colour doesn't even come into the equation. If one brown race hates another brown race it is still racism. I just wish the powers that be would begin to understand that. NOt taking action against criminals because of their racial origin is awful.
How is your son now?

This is all very sad, and in broad daylight. A sure sign of the times we live in.
I hope that justice is done, and seen to be done.

It is good, that your son is feeling much better, but the problem does need sorting out, or the area will become a "no go area" which would be a sorry day indeed.
