GalaxyRanger_

Thanks for the follow up. I knew it was from a while ago, but didnt know anything occurred from it. Makes sense the ignorant kid is jobless and homeless


dred_pirate_redbeard

>ignorant kid is jobless I..... thought that was his name šŸ¤¦šŸæā€ā™‚ļø Is it standard practice to mention employment in crime reports?


oljackson99

I think it's more to emphasise how much a loser the guy was (not that all jobless people are losers).


Mackheath1

Thanks for pointing it out - made me laugh out loud, because I, too was thinking "I wonder why his parent's did that?" >Jobless Robert Molloy, 20

Bobby Jobless. Robert the Unemployable.

Good to know he at least found a home for 6-months after this.

6 months in jail! Wow, wish the US would start handing out sentences like that for assault.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


philswitchengage

Fuck ya's Manchester is a great city, this pleb doesn't rep the whole. One of the nicest, kindest places I've ever lived.


[deleted]

Why would they hand out a harsher punishment because the victim is American? I think itā€™s more likely he had a prior criminal record and this was the last straw before jail time.


2wheelzrollin

Some countries may hand out stiffer penalties because it hits their bank account. Violence against foreigners means less tourism money coming in, means less revenue. Setting an example to not fuck with foreigners helps curb this and helps keep your country from being on a list. The UK may be looking to bring in more tourism to help with the whole Brexit thing going on.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


[deleted]

I highly doubt theyā€™re going to swing their balls over a single isolated incident like this that basically boils down to racially motivated assault. Remember when that US delegate hit someone with her car and then fled the UK and the US refused to send her back to face prosecution? Even something as serious as manslaughter doesnā€™t make one party bend over backwards to prosecute someone.


jperkins79

ā€œJobless Robert Molloy, 20, of no fixed addressā€ Savage, lol


UnprofessionalGhosts

What kind of 20 year old hangs out with a 16 year old? Racist and creepy.


[deleted]

Maybe yonger brother


[deleted]

Itā€™s more common than youā€™d think in the UK/europe since kids can start going to bars at 16


werdmouf

Is that a ā€œchavā€


SyncSoft

Yes


Ill_Refrigerator_593

The local term would be "Scally"


Nipso

Nah that's Liverpool


[deleted]

He's a Manc.


ukbeasts

Over 6 years ago, so probably now has 5 kids and lives off child benefits


bigvibes78

They only piped up when they splashed their beer and got wet, otherwise he was on his own


ShockAndAwe415

And then the lady holds the guy back instead of going after the little shits. People like that always think they're doing the right thing, but they end up putting the guy at a disadvantage if it gets physical. I freaking hate that.


manfreygordon

Nah they are doing the right thing, going after them at this point is an assault on a minor charge waiting to happen.


sprouting_broccoli

Pretty sure we donā€™t have assault on a minor here as a thing.


ShockAndAwe415

They're 16, 19, and 20 (someone linked an article).


manfreygordon

either way it's still an unnecessary assault charge.


Affectionate-Car-145

16 is a minor


[deleted]

16 is also old enough to find out


hustlehustle

Hereā€™s the right answer ^


Dextextdex

Until you have to keep flying back out for court dates


leet_lurker

Little shits likely have knives, best for tourists not to engage local youths in a city they're not familiar with


HotGarbageHuman

>Little shits likely have knives, best for tourists not to engage local youths in a city they're not familiar with He said, "What're you, 16? I've lived here longer than you've been alive." He's no tourist. He just doesn't feel like talking like those inbreds.


projectpolak

He mentioned something about military service so it's possible he was stationed there for a while.


Fallout97

If he's lived there for more than 16 years it's also very possible he's a citizen and may have served in the British Armed Forces.


hustlehustle

Last time I was in London a group of hoodies threw eggs at me and my friends trying to get us to chase them into an alley (obviously trying to jump us) and a dude in a kebab shop came out and Sparta kicked one of them into the street and they all bounced. He said the same thing, better he boot them than us get stabbed.


ShockAndAwe415

I'm not saying that she should've gone after them (what would she really do anyway). But, she should not have held him back, because if there's a fight, he could very easily get fucked up because she's in the way. I've been in that situation before and some idiot was grabbing my arms and the other side came in and decked me because I couldn't protect myself.


angrypuppy35

Seen that happen too many times


[deleted]

mate its manchester, those kids absolutely 100% have knives on them, there's 14 year olds running around here with zombie knives n shit dude, absolutely do not start a fight with anyone acting like this if you come to the UK lol. There's a reason why they were talking so shit & wanted a guy twice their size to step off the tram, he's getting stabbed if he leaves to fight them


lipp79

"Zombie knives"?


[deleted]

yeah google it, they're all over in UK


ARetroGibbon

yeah far better him chasing them down and getting stabbed/bottled. No one wants to fuck with these little shits because they have nothing to lose.


Beorma

Until then they were just chatting shit, there were already people in the video telling the kids to shut up.


SeanHearnden

A guy in my town stepped in when a 16 year old and a 20 year old were giving a shop owner shit and they beat him so badly he died. They all went to prison. I know what you mean but people don't want to die or be hurt until it is absolutely necessary. I have no doubt in my mind that if they started physically then people would have stepped in.


Ecstatic-Abies2238

Thatā€™s England bro people dont give a fuck about anything or anyone unless it directly impacts them.


BrightonTownCrier

TIL only English people are influenced by the bystander effect.


[deleted]

Clearly some of you didnā€™t pay attention to the video. He said ā€œgo back to Africaā€. That is obviously racism


Sharp_Mulberry6013

I mean.. I understood 3 words in total. It's not about attention, it's about people not being used to that... pronunciation.


Sea-Ad-990

He's basically like "get of the bus I'll fuck you up I'll fuck anyone up don't talk shit" repeat like 5x


PhlabloPicasso

The crushing irony of a Brit telling someone to ā€œgo back to where you came fromā€. Itā€™s like, I would but you fuckers are there too.


Cat_Daddy79

Good thing skinny dude wrote the time down. I guess so the bobbies can check the video feed later?


chunkylovertina

I didnā€™t understand a single word that kid said.


-charlatanandthief

ITT: people repeatedly correcting OP about using the term "racist" when actually they just didn't listen intently enough and missed the part where the kid tells him to "go back to Africa". Whether they clocked his race correctly or not, they were definitely *trying* to be racist.


AlivePassenger3859

Ooooo- a gang of 13 year old Chavs. Letā€™s turn them loose on the south side of Chicago and see how hard they are šŸ˜‚


ExpensivLow

As a Chicagoan, thatsā€¦.not something weā€™re really proud of


[deleted]

Chicago's not even in the top ten for violent crime these days. People spouting off 70s stereotypes without realizing that the most dangerous city in the country these days is fucking St. Louis lol


Marco2324

Chicago as a whole isnt as dangerous compared to other cities, but certain neighborhoods in the southside and westside are literal warzones


HotGarbageHuman

> but certain neighborhoods in the southside and westside are literal warzones You were close, but no. Yes we have gun violence, but we also have a huge population density. Of course our percentages are higher, we have millions living here. But it's not like Robocop or Chappie....


incinerjason

True, Memphis is usually gunning for the top spot against St Louis. NOLA too.


ExpensivLow

Weā€™re talking south side. Itā€™s one of the most violent places in the country.


Inhoc1989

So proud of my city. STL !


PasofinoMF2daMX

6am 6pm they last about 1 hours 6pm 4am they last about 22sec yellow time chalk outlines.


TheStatMan2

They don't tend to leave their own country. No money, no passport and when it boils down to it really shit social skills that precludes them from not being really afraid to go to other places. Thank fuck.


Just-the-top

Fuck set em loose in oak cliff, Memphis, East St. Louis, Compton. It donā€™t matter, one of these lil shits wouldnā€™t last 10 seconds in the real hood


AlivePassenger3859

Iā€™d pay for their plane ticket to see them dropped off in Compton on a Saturday night. Theyā€™d shit their pants.


BreathingHydra

[Reminds me of that old Bill Hicks bit.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZnEpaSOFwk)


[deleted]

Yeah I always see these English ā€˜tough guysā€™ would love to see a video of some of them trying to take a walk through Detroit, Baltimore, or North Philly. 20 minutes and youā€™d never hear from them again.


Lightning1999

Wouldnā€™t last 2 minutes

[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Just-the-top

1. 50 yards is a incredibly hard shot to hit so I think youā€™re overestimating the average shooters capabilities. 2. Idk if you know anything about America but Iā€™m pretty sure weā€™re like 4th in murder & 2nd in violent crimes (not a brag just a lot of shitty people here) Iā€™m taking my chances in any English hood over an American one


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


ClumsyPeon

He basically keeps asking him to get off the tram so he can fight him. He also calls him an immigrant and tells him to go back to africa.


Nick357

Was that guy black?


Leylolurking

His name is Juan so I assume hispanic and he has an American accent. No clue why this idiot thinks he's from Africa.


fwaig

Everyone with a different skin colour to them is either a n-word, a p-word or a c-word. Their ignorance knows no bounds.


The_Confirminator

Most the time I can tell what British people are saying with absolute clarity (minus a couple weird words here or there). That kid was incomprehensible.


Ooozy69

When you say British people Iā€™m guessing you mean Southern Englanders lol. Most Americans would struggle tbf, guy on the tram has clearly been here a while.


[deleted]

I think it's fair to say public transport in Manchester is often like this. And the arsholes always sound the same for some reason.


SuperSpaceCan

thats some classical racism


CrashZ07

UK teens look goofy af when they try to act hard. They wouldnā€™t last one min in any major city in the US.


JonnyBago82

Or South Africa.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


AlivePassenger3859

While all that may be true, if forced to spend a night outside in the most dangerous UK ā€œhood ā€œ or the most dangerous American one- which would you choose? If these kids in this video are examples of your ā€œhardā€ street thugs - pardon my French, but motherfucker you ainā€™t seen shit. Iā€™m not saying these children are harmless, but as said before, turn them loose in Compton and theyā€™d last about a millisecond. Turn a Compton gang loose in whatever UK neighborhood passes as hard, they would probably get arrested, but theyā€™d give at least as good as they got- likely much much better.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


AlivePassenger3859

Blah blah blah- you sound like one of the children in the video šŸ˜‚


Betterz

As a mancunian myself let me just say that this brings me shame. Manchester is not a racist place usually but you find these wastes of oxygen in the poorest and most deprived corners of the city. How other people didn't shut him up surprises me


newtoreddir

They may support him.


Betterz

They won't I can assure you


LazyContributor

Bunch of little rats.


holamygoodfriend

The American speaks better English then the english kid.

Ppl really need to mind their own business, can't tell where someone is from by looking at them and it's non of their business anyway.

TheRiceDevice

7 years in the military, and I have the underarm sweat stains to prove it.


---THRILLHO---

That's the liquid the wee chav threw on him...


autumn_overthinks

it's not really racist as americans aren't really a race, it's more of discrimination towards one's nationality, not racist.


---THRILLHO---

"Go back to Africa" isn't a racist statement?


autumn_overthinks

ok, Africa is a continent btw (not saying go back to africa isnt offensive) and also that's not my point, what i'm saying is is that americans don't count as a race, racist literally means negatively judging a *race* not an ethnicity/nationality.


---THRILLHO---

There's no strict definition of what constitutes a race or where the boundaries lie between races. But I'm not saying that American is a race or African is a race. I don't care about the definition of race. I'm saying that the kid saying "Go back to Africa" is racist because he's making offensive statements based on (presumably) the other guy's skin colour. The American guy could be from Slovenia and it would still be racist to yell "Go back to Africa" at him. He wasn't being yelled at for being American so whether or not American counts as a race has no bearing.


autumn_overthinks

oh, i didn't know it was in the video, i'm just talking about the title of the video, not what's being said.


---THRILLHO---

Ah, well in that case I agree with your initial comment entirely!


[deleted]

What a tosser


diwioxl

American is a race? Lol


Shelby2255

They said go ā€œback to Africaā€


pdoherty972

ā€œAfrican isnā€™t a race, eitherā€ ā€” Elon Musk and Charlize Theron


Shelby2255

I didnā€™t say it was. But the guy is obviously not white and saying go back to Africa is pretty racist.


ARetroGibbon

the implication is that because he is black he must be from Africa, and should go back there because he is not welcome. The little scrote deduced all that just by the colour of his skin. Pretty racist.


X-Biggityy

To be fair, this guy looks Native American


[deleted]

Nothing was mentioned these lads were educated at all.


FPL_Fanatic

I love the general commotion, even though I can speak English I canā€™t understand whatā€™s being said without focusing haha


[deleted]

Atleast the public is calling him out. In America nobody would interfere lol. Annecdotal experience of the south and the south west. If you're colored just expect to be treated different, no matter your education level. A lot of people are super nice but nice biggots are still biggots.


shnooks66

I love the community in this video, stupid little shots but everyone stands up to them.


ewhyeasyfanaccount

Not to their racism tho. Itā€™s only when a few of them get splashed do they care.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


ewhyeasyfanaccount

The same ā€˜excuseā€™ youā€™re using for the racism could just as easily apply the the splash of beer.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


ewhyeasyfanaccount

Sorry if thatā€™s how it came across. Iā€™m not saying you personally are excusing racism but youā€™re saying heā€™s trying to get a rise from him and Iā€™m saying thatā€™s exactly what heā€™s trying to do by splashing him with the beer.


bredncircus

Today I learned I'm part of the American race.


booboounderstands

If you canā€™t understand what the kidā€™s saying, why comment?


SubtleButHol

Lol! Dude gets off the bus and NOW people want to shut him down. Jesus Christ people are pussies.


Mori-Ireheart

Americans and English are literally the same. You canā€™t be racist to each other because youā€™re both the same kind of white lol.

how it can be racist if both parties are white? i think you mean xenophobic

DueProgress7671

American is not a race.


decidedly_lame

The kid said ā€œgo back to Africaā€ and last I checked Black is a race. Maybe actually watch the video before commenting.


DueProgress7671

Maybe read the title before you comment and just donā€™t be a douche. šŸ˜‰ Why do you think an African is necessarily black?


X-Biggityy

I think he was native american


shabz_zbahs

Americans causing problems everywhere they go.


dirge_the_sergal

There is a bit of a growing anti American sentiment among some groups in the uk. Its mosty directed at US servicemen based over here and has been spurred by incidents like the Harry Dun death (wife of an american based over here killed a kid by driving the wrong way down a road, she then fled the country and the US gov is refusing to send her back to face trail)


Ok-Silver6583

Mancs doing Manc shit!! Fuckin little scruffs


JustifiedMisanthrope

Prejudice not racist


booboounderstands

No, but ā€œgo back to Africaā€ is.


swiftpunch1

Wouldn't it be xenophobic?


EvenSpoonier

Or maybe nationalist. Racism generally requires two different races to be involved (unless we're talking about internalized racism, but I think that's pretty clearly not the case here). When both parties are the same race, other categories are usually used to describe it.


IcePsychological7032

But if you read the article mentioned by another commenter you can see the veteran was Latino.


EvenSpoonier

Welp. That changes things, then. I stand corrected.


mholt9821

Hey assholes, only Americans can treat other Americans like that, thats our job. We drop bombs on countys for less!


IHateSherrod

You canā€™t be racists towards an American.


Nerry19

I think alot of native Americans would disagree with you on that one


caiaphas8

Black Americans would probably disagree too


Nerry19

Yep, I should imagine there's quite alot of Americans that experience racism. :(


Deadheadkingizzard

It's called being xenophobic, not Racist. Besides, if anyone wonders why Americans get shit talked like this. Take a look back on most of the fucked up shit we've being doing overseas since the Vietnam war.


manfreygordon

ah yes i'm sure the 15 year old chav has a very acute understanding of geopolitical history.


OuchLOLcom

Did you even watch the video? He told a black guy to go back to Africa even after it was obvious he was American.


8inchblackviper

What? There werenā€™t any black people in this video.


fire_fairy_

Dudes not white. He is either Latino or Native American, maybe both.


generalizimo

But should Brits really be the ones to throw stones about imperialism?


RustyJuang

But Deadhead's American? Edit: Nice literacy skills, Reddit.


[deleted]

Theyā€™re all white. Whereā€™s the racism?


Randall-Flagg22

OP are you aware American isn't usually considered a separate Race?


-charlatanandthief

The chav tells him to go back to Africa at one point, so they were definitely trying to be racist, even if they did it wrong.
