Not racist in my own opinion. Bit ludicrous how much the word is thrown about in the black community considering having racist undertones. It's no different to the black Swedish artist embroiled in a blackface saga. |

Was a clear copy alright. Seemed to good to be true and wouldn't dare pause or refresh till the end of the movie. Hunch proved right, after watching all for bout 2 hour +, tried to refresh and send link to others, all I got was a copyright message bout 'channel terminated' and movie pulled down. Pisssed I forgot to download it quickly  Let's hope there's another one uploaded soon enough |

Saw the Avengers today and you wouldn't guess where. . . on Youtube. lol My take on it is 'critically acclaimed' Taken down already though. Also seen lots of new releases that way too.  Here's what you do: Type in 'Full' into the search bar. After generating search results, scroll to 'filter' on the left hand side of the screen and choose these options - Duration: Long(20~ minutes), Categories: Film & Animation, Upload date: Today. If you got an android phone, download an app called 'Tubemate' and you can download any movie or video on youtube - got numerous HD movies that way like Black Hawk Down, Transformers, Pirates of the Carribean, Kung Fu Panda 2 and many more Sometimes people do put up new movies from time to time - seen a few new movies (Hunger games, Avengers et al) that way without navigating useless fake spam filled movie sites. |

cheikh: BlackBaronIf I remember correctly, the largest wave of Jamaican migration to the UK including people of all genders and ages occurred in the mid-1900s and post World war 2 era saw thousands of Indians expelled by the Idi Amin regime. Know personally a lot who regard themselves Kenyans, Ugandans, Tanzanians and few other East Africans. Bout the sociological perspective - it's less likely to see a second or third generation Indian family living in sink hole estates or least it's what I've seen coupled with the fact most families are established economically as well. How many Indian kids join gangs? Here's a link: http://www.londonstreetgangs.com/ You willing to disprove any of this. . . |

I disagree bout the racism part. Blacks were among the first wave of immigrants to the UK. Yet, the Indians who came much afterward seem to be better off with a burgeoning middle class. I'm often surprised to see a second or third generation black family still living in sink hole estates whilst their Indian counterparts have long climbed up the social ladder. |

Ilekokonit: When the mother (including a LARGE proportion of Nigerian mothers in the UK) chases out the father from the house due to stubbornness and/or greed for single parent benefits, if care is not taken and instead of focussing on her kids upbringing she instead sees her new found marital freedom as a time to gallivant after new men (often multiple men as none of them stays with her for long) only God can help straighten out her kids especially the male children.I think it is unfair to blame single mothers alone, how about the numerous males who sow the seeds but with no intention to be around a family setting or play the fatherly role and hence defer responsibility for their child's upbringing to the society. A lot of single mums out there are in this category. |

Gbawe: Simply not true. Ridiculous actually. This is not the 80ties. Nigerians who improve themselves, to the best extent, and possess sought-after skills, have virtually the same chances of excelling as anyone else in the UK today.You are absolutely right Sir. There seems to be a pervasive culture for a lot of black folks pinning the lack of job opportunities to the melanin in their skin. Worst is when it comes from those born in Britain. The UK government gives equal opportunities to all her citizens at all levels with incentives to match. The problem is their attitudes to education and a failure to adapt to competition. International students are made to cough up triple, quadruple or more to have the same level of education as their British counterpart. Yet, the latter under-utilises this opportunities. I also think there's a dearth of good role models for inner city youths other than the obligatory gang members, drug dealers etc with their flashy lifestyles. Also a tendency to make money like their favourite celebrities, rappers et al without putting in a reciprocal amount of hard honest work is another problem. |

MRbrownJAY: first lets get ONE thing straight: the youths involved in the Victoria station attack were NOT ALL of Nigerian descent. you only have to read the name of some of the culprits in the dock to understand that.....unless of course, names such as Chris Goncalves, Samuel Roberts, Enoch Amoah and Tyrone Richards are Nigerian names to you?Admittedly, I failed to include bit bout British youths OF NIGERIAN DESCENT but dude, you're missing the point. Three concurrent life sentences were handed out to '3 British youth OF NIGERIAN DESCENT'. It's not until The Sun or DailyMail point out they are children of first generation immigrant parents or whatever. I only brought it to everyone's attention because tis a Nigerian forum. |

MRbrownJAY: its funny how the OP wrote: "Three Nigerian Youths Jailed For British Teenager's Murder" , while the article NEVER mentioned that they were NIGERIANS or that the stabbed person was BRITISH,lol! is he a psychic? does he know something we dont?! NONSENSE!!!This was a well circulated story in the UK. The murdered teen was set upon by a group of teenagers in full view of returning commuters near a train station. The youths involved were clearly British citizens of Nigerian descent. Only highlighting this for the benefit of diasporan parents. Nowt to do with inferiority complex. |

Four Nigerian Youths Jailed For British Teenager's Murder EDITED Three men have been jailed for at least 18 years each for murdering a 15-year-old schoolboy at a tube station. Sofyen Belamouadden was stabbed nine times after pupils from two rival schools clashed at Victoria station in central London in March 2010. Obi Nwokeh, 19, Christopher Omoregrie, 18, and Samson Odegbune, 18, were given life sentences at the Old Bailey and told they must serve a minimum of 18 years. They were ordered to serve concurrent eight-year detention sentences for conspiracy to cause grievous bodily harm. The judge, Christopher Moss, said the "ferocious and merciless attack" took place in front of horrified commuters. "You gathered together for the purpose of serious mass violence in a busy public place at the height of the rush hour," he said. Moss was sentencing eight people found guilty of various offences during a series of trials. He said the 12-second attack on Sofyen had followed a minor confrontation the day before between pupils of two west London schools in the food area of Victoria station. After messages by text and on Facebook, pupils from the defendants' school armed themselves with knives and a samurai sword, expecting the other group to attack their school. But the confrontation came at Victoria when pupils from Sofyen's school were charged by teenagers led by Odegbune holding the sword. A breakaway group chased Sofyen into the tube ticket office area and kicked, stabbed and struck him with other weapons as travellers watched in disbelief. The judge said the youths had shown no remorse and had not acknowledged responsibility for the death. Earlier, Sofyen's father, Abdeslan, 51, said his son had been a promising footballer who dreamed of playing for England. "He was a star in the making. He was an outstanding all-round player. He was born and bred in London and often talked of his ambition to represent England in the World Cup final." He said in an impact statement that Sofyen's death had left his family devastated. "I have no wish to inflict revenge on the culprits but Sofyen, whose life was tragically cut short, would expect justice to take its course. I often think of the suffering he must have gone through, that he was set upon with such savagery and why I was not there to protect him," he said. Sofyen's mother, Naima Belamouadden, said: "I hope the memory of what they did to my son lives with them every day as it lives with me." Adonis Akra, 18, Samuel Roberts, 19, and Femi Oderinwale, 18, were found guilty of manslaughter and given 12 years' detention each. Victoria Osoteku, 19, the only woman charged in connection with the death, was also found guilty of manslaughter and will be sentenced next week. Tyrone Richards, 17, and Enoch Amoah, 19, were found guilty of conspiracy to commit GBH and were sentenced to seven years' detention. The defendants, all from west London, were among 20 pupils charged in connection with the attack. Four youths were earlier sentenced to two years' detention after pleading guilty to violent disorder. Three have been cleared of all charges and four others are still to be tried. 1 Like |

Great thread. Most southerners have stereotypical views about Northerners as security guards, butchers, fundamental muslims et al It doesn't help that most often Northerners pique our interest, it's always as a result of religious riots or petty matters turning deadly. Also we never really got to know or mix with them at least down south. I could probably count on one hand the number of northerners I met while schooling and I think a few others may attest to that. However over the past few years, I do gloss over infos, facts, demographics about northerners and learnt a few bits and pieces about the equestrian lifestle, their love of polo, durbans, interesting landscapes and more.
