[News] Crawley stabbing

[dazzer6666]

One of the main stream news a week or so ago, just tried looking for again but no success. Remember was just under 60, so maybe it was an entire year rather than this year and I’ve misquoted. Definitely teenagers mind.

Probably this ?

I’m not going to offer a personal opinion, I was in Crawley to train the new team up. My main patch is Brighton. But I’ll say this; I’ll never take Brighton for granted again. We have one VERY special, friendly, tolerant town. We are very lucky.

Its not all horrible, Mrs Jakarta taught at Northgate (one of the older bits of the town) and it seemed a perfectly pleasant place. Finished her career in Rose Green Bognor Regis which was a bit posher.

Bewbush and Broadfield, on the other hand...

And Crawley Town Centre on a Friday & Saturday night.

Have to say when I moved down to get hitched to Mrs Jakarta back in 1995 I spent a morning in Crawley and afternoon in Horsham, which made my mind up pretty quick!

It's not just Crawley. Fortunately, not a fatality from a stabbing in Worthing last week, but sounds like it easily could have been...

doesn’t surprise me in todays weaponised multi-culture (aka gangs) Britain where kids kill each other for a pair of trainers or merely looking the wrong direction. Very sad. Certainly won’t be the last. It’s normalised behaviour. Only Feb and believe already 60 teenagers stabbed to death nationally. Imagine if we had guns in this country? Carnage. So many angry off their heads youngsters ready to kill anyone showing ‘disrespect’ or even ‘difference’ (see Brianna last week). Poor kid and their parents, feel for them.

Don’t rule out drug turf wars. Kids are recruited into these gangs and nationally that is much more likely to be the explanation than trainers, especially where I live. I don’t know anything about the specifics of the Crawley case.

My son works for McDonalds in Newhaven and has been threatened on so many occasions with being stabbed etc...once by a 9yr old!
He lives with his g/f in Denton just round the corner - but it really does worry us every day thinking about him walking home after his shift, which is usually about 2am (hes at uni during the day), and you never know whos hanging around at that time still.

Mis-remembering and mis-quoting - the scourge of the internet. Well, one of them.

What is your team / role if you don't mind me asking?

Ah yes, the downside of checking using NSC on a mobile while shopping with the Mrs. A good job you are doing there - keep safe.

I see the usual suspects are trying to connect a migrant hotel to the stabbing.

That's the joy of the ignore function. I don't get to see all the right wing numpty bollocks.

Seems one of the arrested was from Worthing, wonder if they are all linked?

A serious review on knife carrying is needed.
