Sheikh came to Britain in 2006 as a mature student before overstaying and refusing to leave once his visa ran out in 2011.

The migrant even attempted to stay by submitting a fake degree diploma which he had never actually achieved, according to Tribunal papers seen by The Sun.

Should’ve been deported for his first offense long before a kid got raped.

This is definitely one time when the bot is useful, correctly identifies a junk source.

The juxtaposition of this article, with the other article recent posted about the 13 y/o being harshly sentenced for participation in the riots, is rather nauseating.

Legal priorities.

EDIT: It is wild that some of y’all are only one social stepping stone away from being child rape apologists.

Do you have any problem with far right thugs who attempted to burn people alive ending in prisons?

wesker@lemmy.sdf.org on 12 Oct 2024 08:46 collapse

Absolutely not. This is a 13 y/o kid however, and the circumstances of their involvement seem muddied.

Be very afraid of immigrants everyone!

Scaremongering immigrants, barf.

Here I thought the worst part was a child being sexually assaulted, but I guess the worst part was the idea of outrage being directed at the perpetrator.

KoboldCoterie@pawb.social on 12 Oct 2024 01:08 next collapse

That’s not outrage being directed at the perpetrator, it’s outrage being directed at an entire demographic of people of which the perpetrator happens to belong.

We must have read two different articles. Can you quote where in the linked article it said that?

KoboldCoterie@pawb.social on 12 Oct 2024 01:18 next collapse

It’s not in the article, it’s in the comment you were replying to. What am I missing?

wesker@lemmy.sdf.org on 12 Oct 2024 01:25 collapse

What am I missing?

All the context.

Lupus@feddit.org on 12 Oct 2024 01:25 next collapse

Oh I don’t know maybe the first three words?

MONSTERS APPEAL MIGRANT

Or the next three words that follow

the MONSTER migrant

Instead of maybe “the rapist”, no we got to tie in that he is a migrant in all caps, at every possible turn.

Also further down referred to as

the MONSTER

Or

the migrant

Oh and also let’s rope in some unrelated burglar who also happens to be a migrant.

All very easy to spot so I figure you’re not really asking in good faith, just like someone who has an agency in “just asking questions” would do.

wesker@lemmy.sdf.org on 12 Oct 2024 01:32 collapse

So you believe a child rapist isn’t a monster, and that we aren’t allowed to have heated discourse about the legal loopholes being utilized for foreign criminals to escape justice?

Lupus@feddit.org on 12 Oct 2024 01:37 collapse

Nope, not what we were talking about mate. Op said:

That’s not outrage being directed at the perpetrator, it’s outrage being directed at an entire demographic of people of which the perpetrator happens to belong.

You said :

So don’t try to move the goalposts just because you talked shit, I’m sick of this bullshit.

We were talking about why a, admittedly monstrous, rapist needs to be used to demonize a whole demographic. You pretended like that wasn’t in the article, I proved it was, that is the fucking conversation we’re having here.

Damn the projection massive.

Still no relevant response to what I pointed out, buddy,.

I’m not obligated to invest any more serious energy into you, bud. We’re allowed to disengage if we feel someone lost the plot.

FuglyDuck@lemmy.world on 12 Oct 2024 02:11 collapse

just an observation, but replying to them is not disengagement.

You want some engagement too now?

Assuming you are not trolling:

The Sun is being criticized for:

  • targeting a group instead of an individual
  • using scare language when describing this group

Let’s say I want to report on “Police finds wanted man hiding in sofa” (currently on BBC with that headline)

My hateful newspaper do a quick check of his Twitter, and go with “Wanted criminal TRANS ALLY found CRAWLING inside leather furniture”

The outrage is directed at the perpetrator’s identity, not their actions. No sympathy for the perp, but racism is never excusable.

popcap200@lemmy.ml on 12 Oct 2024 00:45 next collapse

Does anyone have more info on this situation? This article is super sussy.

tal@lemmy.today on 12 Oct 2024 03:45 next collapse

I mean, I’m sure something happened. But The Sun is not what I’d go to for a calm, objective look at something.

checks Kagi and Google News

Nobody else is covering it as of this writing. Now, maybe there’s a really big story here. But given the information I currently have available, I’m kind of inclined to doubt it.

If there’s something really outrageous, I imagine that other media will also cover it.

Naich@lemmings.world on 12 Oct 2024 07:13 collapse

More information: the Sun regularly makes shit up to get the racists frothing. Even when it doesn’t just make shit up, it presents it using inflammatory language to get the racists frothing. They used to have a picture of a topless woman every day on page 3, often 16 year olds.

In short, the paper is just a cess pit.

Yeah, I know British news doesn’t have a uhhhhhh great history.

Based on the article, it sounds like they may be exaggerating the word “assault” given they gave no specifics, and it sounds like the judge legally wasn’t allowed to consider that case during the hearing.

I’d rather that it be difficult to remove immigrants than too easy to.

What’s up with the anti-immigrant fear mongering being pushed here recently? From the Sun, the Express and their likes, no less, shitrags one and all?
