The British Waterboarding Hysteria
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
That video of two boys in a school playground having a tussle has been the source of two days of utter hysteria in the British press and among the British public.
And it's unbelievably pathetic.
What I saw in that video were two boys having a tussle in a schoolyard with one boy pouring water on the other's face.
Of course, that's not how the media portrayed it, and that's not how the public is interpreting it, even though there doesn't seem to be anything more to it.
It's been called waterboarding, if you can believe it.
Perhaps these people don't know what waterboarding is, but pouring a bottle of water on someone's face is not waterboarding.
But because the young lad who had water poured on his face was a refugee from Syria, now it's a racially aggravated assault.
Even though so far, we have no reason to believe that it's racially aggravated at all.
Naturally, the virtue signallers came right out of the woodwork.
Barry Shearman, the local MP who'd been supporting the boy and his family, tweeted, video of the assault against one of my constituents, absolutely shocking, have been supporting the family since it was first brought to my attention.
My goodness, boys fighting in a playground.
I can't believe it.
Such a thing has never happened.
Or at least surely it's never been captured on camera before and spread around the entire country and yet the entire world in fact, given how this became international bloody news.
But absolutely shocking.
I am against this kind of thing, good sir.
Well done, Barry.
We're all against bullying, but you're against it the most.
You're the most virtuous here.
You should probably tweet some more about it.
Maybe you can get some more virtue points from the general public.
Now, when I was at school, such an incident probably wouldn't have even been reported, because, I mean, all he did was got dragged to the floor and had some water poured in his face, and then he walked away.
Dickish, yes.
Need for a criminal investigation?
Well, I wouldn't have thought so.
But Superintendent Steve Dodds of the West Yorkshire Police says, we are investigating a report of a racially aggravated assault for a 15-year-old boy which occurred on the playing fields, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
A 16-year-old boy was being interviewed by voluntary attendants in connection to the incident, and we are continuing to progress the investigation.
Well, good grief, Superintendent.
I hope you can bring the perpetrator to justice.
Maybe you could help pump up the atmosphere surrounding this so people become hysterical.
So people start getting out of their mind with how racially aggravated this all is.
I mean, it couldn't just be that these were two boys fighting in a playground.
This has to be something bigger, something deeper, something racial.
And it's a good thing Kirkley's council came out and said neither us nor the school condone violence in any formal behaviour like this will not be tolerated because otherwise how would we have known?
We wouldn't have known.
We were like, well, they didn't say anything about this.
They must be in favour of bullying Syrian refugees at Kirkley's council, those bunch of fucking racists.
It was then reported that the boy who had waterpoured in his face feels unsafe.
And then a video of his sister being bullied as well comes out, which again, totally against.
But it probably shouldn't go further than the school itself, should it?
I mean, it's not like there aren't kids all over the country being bullied in their schools and it doesn't go further than the school.
But because these are Syrian refugees, because this is something that could be racism, oh, now everyone has to have an opinion.
Now everyone has to get in on this.
This needs to become an absolute catastrophe for the school, for the person involved, the boy doing the bullying.
Because as I said, a video of the boy sister being pushed around by girls has emerged as well.
Oh my god.
Because it turns out that girls are no better than boys when it comes to establishing dominance hierarchies and bullying one another.
And so that was it.
All bets are off.
And now the public are involved because this is now national news and it gets ugly.
Really fucking ugly.
I mean, for a start, the 16-year-old in question that did the bullying is being called some low-life thug.
Really?
Is that how we're treating a 16-year-old who had a tussle with another kid in a schoolyard?
A low-life thug.
Really?
Do we need to make this as extreme as possible, Daily Mail?
Because it turns out maybe there is a problem with hyping up this sort of crap with the general public, as the family of the bully themselves have been driven out of their home and forced to get a police guard because of threats from vigilantes from the general public.
Is this spiraling out of control?
Or is this what we want to happen?
Is this the way we want it to go?
Two young boys have a fight, two young girls have a fight, and suddenly threats.
Death threats.
The cops are involved.
This is now costing taxpayers money.
Holy shit.
Get a fucking grip, everyone.
It's two kids fighting.
That's it.
That's it.
It's not the end of the world.
For the love of God, you know what's going to happen?
Nothing.
They're going to get over it.
The teen who allegedly waterboarded, yes, waterboarded, we're still using that phrase.
A Syrian refugee has been forced to flee his home after being targeted by gangs of vigilantes.
It's understood that the cops removed the last family from the Huddersfield house under the cover of darkness after a gang of vigilantes turned up and held a barrage of abuse.
A spokesman said, this 16-year-old youth has been interviewed and reported for a summons for an offence of assault.
Not racially aggravated assault there, that's interesting.
He will appear at youth court in due course.
Notice that you can't see the guy's face because he's only a kid.
But the alleged attacker has been inundated with death threats on social media after the footage was shared tens of thousands of times online.
And everyone thought that they had to get their say in because somehow this is their business as well.
Because they need to virtue signal too.
One Facebook post, a man threatens to stab him saying, I'll be there with a knife tomorrow ready to stab the cunt.
Really?
Two boys fight in a playground and an adult man thinks that one of the boys needs to die.
Is this the kind of society that we are really trying to become?
Are we taking this too fucking far?
Last night, neighbours reported hearing swearing and shouting and threats being directed towards the teen's house.
There was no answer at the property today as the curtains remained drawn.
A police car was also parked outside.
One neighbour claimed the family had been forced out in the middle of the night for their own protection.
Apparently, people were pulling up in their cars in the early hours and shouting threats and all kinds of abuse.
Well, I'm glad the media drummed this up into a massive shitstorm because otherwise, this kid and his family might not have become public enemy number one for the high crime of having a tussle in a playground with another kid.
This is pathetic.
What the fuck is wrong with everyone?
West Yorkshire Police confirmed it had put safeguarding measures in place after groups of men were seen driving up and down the family street.
But cops refused to confirm whether they'd taken the family to a safe house.
Well, I suppose we don't want the press to find out about it just in case they report that too, and redirect all of these vigilantes to that house as well.
One of the neighbours said that her two children had been the victim of bullying but didn't treat the issue seriously enough.
It's because kids get over it.
As she said, they think it's just kids being kids.
Because it is just kids being kids.
But look at the way the son's reporting it.
The harrowing incident.
Oh, fucking hell, he'll get over it.
Naturally, the far-left racebaiters are projecting their own issues onto this.
The video of the Syrian child being bullied shows why white parents must talk to their kids about racism.
How do you know this is about racism?
How do you know this isn't about teenage boys establishing a dominance hierarchy with the new kid in school?
Or the same with the girls.
How do you know?
Oh, but you, Kuba Shand Baptiste, want it to be about racism.
And so you can stoke it up.
And because for some reason everyone's terrified that they might secretly be a racist, everyone now has to react as if you have something legitimate to say.
Eventually, the boy who did the bullying has to now come out and say, look, this wasn't a racial incident.
This was, in effect, boys being boys.
The teen accused of bullying the Syrian refugee has broken his silence to insist he's not a racist.
Why would we think he is?
Because he had a fight with a brown boy.
It's the only reason you can have a fight with someone brown if you're white, because you're a racist, is it?
Is that the only fucking reason?
Could it not be that he was actually not being a racist and just having a fight with him as he might have done with any other kid?
Is that not, that's beyond the realms of possibility, obviously.
It must be that he's racist.
He says, I fully accept responsibility for my actions, which I regret, but wish to make it clear I was not responsible for breaking his arm, nor had I been bullying him over a period of time as had been reported.
The incident was isolated and came about from an altercation between us earlier that day.
So there is in fact a greater context.
This may not have even been the kind of bullying that we thought it was.
This might actually have been a bit of rough housing between friends, like boys are known to do.
Like I did to my friends and my friends did to me when I was their age.
The incident was not racial as up to that time we've been on good terms.
I've now been charged with common assault, not racially aggravated as has been reported.
So more fake news from the fucking media, more hysteria drummed up, and this has led to this kid becoming essentially famous in this country as some kind of bully, even though, let's be fair, I don't think we have the context to suggest that that's the case.
And his family have been driven from their home because of fucking vigilante threats over what is effectively nothing.
Someone called Mohamed Tahir set up a GoFundMe for the boy himself, and he's raised £150,000 for him, which is very nice.
Seems honestly unnecessary, but hey, it's their money.
Let them donate as they want.
And the boy is obviously very thankful as to what's happened.
Thank you for raising all of this money for him.
I'm sure he'll need it.
I'm sure he can put it to good use.
And then for some reason, Tommy Robinson gets in on this, saying that the Huddersfield boy was not innocent, and in fact, the refugee was the bully himself.
He alleged that the boy was part of a gang who had beaten a girl in the same school, leaving her black and blue, claiming he got the information confirmed by the girl's mother.
Here's the interaction where she sent him all of this stuff.
It turned out this was false.
This was then later retracted by the person who sent it.
I don't know why they sent it.
I don't know why they would want to lie about this sort of thing.
And I don't know why Tommy didn't take more time to try and fact check this.
But either way, he did make a retraction.
Just a quick one.
I have been completely out of hell, embarrassing, man.
But I had a woman, which I'll show you our screenshots, messaging me all morning about what happened to her son.
It turns out I've been absolutely some lefty sitting somewhere absolutely mugging me completely off and laughing about it.
So yeah.
Fake news central.
And now it turns out that Tommy might be sued by the victim's family because why not?
Why not make this a ridiculous clusterfug?
It's not already a big enough burning garbage pile.
It needs to get worse.
It needs to carry on.
This isn't just some silly thing that happened.
Oh no, everyone's come to this with their own agendas and projected it on from the left and the right.
And now we've got this absolute burning dumpster fire of bullshit over something that just wasn't really a very big deal.
Oh, the kid cried himself to sleep.
Yeah, he'll get over it.
He'll get over it.
He's alright.
He's okay.
It's not a racist crime.
It's nothing out of the ordinary.
He'll get over it.
Everyone needs to calm the fuck down.
It was an altercation by two kids in a playground.
What is wrong with you people?
Why are you all losing your fucking minds?
Where is your sense of perspective?
Honestly, low life thug.
Boys make mistakes.
Boys fight with one another.
It's something that happens.
And the only reason we know about it is because of mobile phones and cameras and social media.
This is not new and it's certainly not going to be the only time this happens.
There are going to be many other examples of kids having fights.
These are going to be recorded.
They're going to be shared all around the internet via social media.
It's going to become international news in the Washington Post, like news.au in Australia, all of these places, and it's not going to be any more important when they report on it.
This is an absolute storm in a teacup.
And honestly, everyone involved in it should probably be ashamed of themselves for hyping this up.
It's this kind of reporting that got the poor kid's family forced from their homes by lunatics who think that this is a racist attack because one boy was treating another boy like another boy and just any other boy and just having a fight with him and establishing their dominance.
It's not pretty, it's not nice.
I don't even condone it.
I think it probably should have been addressed by the school authorities.
And that's as far as it should have gone.
Because that's all this was.
