Directly and indirectly.
I refuse to be sickened by it just because she is white and middle class.
I abhor it, but at least politicians had a choice.
The parents of many children affected by crime had no choice.
To me, when it's organised, it's terrorism pure and simple.
And I've always spoken out about it.
A previously non-violent group have decided to target children rather than livelihoods. They're showing their true colours. Once you start embarking in illegal protests in the name of politics, innocent people will get hurt. This time it might be kids. Well, fair enough. You disable a policeman you hurt his kids. You burn down someone's shop you stop a family from providing for their kids and if they sleep above it they could easily burn to death. You kill shoot a drug dealer you hurt his kids. You stab a 15 year old, or a Malaysian student just arrived in London and all that and everything.
It's called politics, or street crime, or gangs.
Until it's your family member.
And then it's called death,

Why does her being white and middle class have anythng to do with anything? I am sickened by anybody who targets children.
But to do this as some kind of defence of free speech is ludicrous. Targeting a politician with threats to them or their children on the grounds that they have taken a political stance is itself an attack on free speech.
