No what I am asking is why other bullies are treated the same...
Of course you choose to gloss over that point.
Yes, you can push me over and pour some water on my face for £500, and video itLess if I'm in a good mood. I think there are far more worthy cases for that level of pecuniary gift! Hopefully he and his family will do the right thing and help out funding of fellow migrants in the UK, it would make a nice statement given the sum involved has now reached heady heights. If they decide to keep it I hope the authorities see them as far more financially independent and reduce the charity given to them.
This could well set a troubling precedent in so far as others may see this as way to a quick and substantial boost to their finances and play the victim card for all it's worth...
This child is receiving money purely because he's not British. Isn't that racist in itself?
I'm happy the police have been involved, but this money thing is a bit weird isn't it? Is it a case of white guilt or something?
It's people trying to show we're not all racist bigots, by supporting victims of racism who are exclusively non white. Though I bet you any money if there are videos of racism against white natives, of which there undoubtedly are, they won't get the same attention. Mostly because they won't be publicised anywhere outside youtube.
agenda, agenda, agenda, agenda, agenda, agenda
Immigrant kid gets beaten up by, 9 pages later we have some people suggesting the real problem is how minorities may exploit this for money in the future and how its unfair that white people don't get as much attention when they are bullied.
Great site lads.
I mean you talk about agenda, agenda, agenda but then use this to fit your narrative.
There have also been plenty of racist videos against non-whites. There was numerous different ones of non-whites being abused on trains/underground etc over the last few years. Don't remember them gaining any donation traction either. If this was "white guilt", where were the donations for that?
The reality is, people see a kid in a cast getting bullied, understand he's a refugee and thus it's likely he not well off, the combination of child+potential poverty+bullying = heartstrings tugged at, donations made. Trying to make it seem like anything else is literally you having an agenda.
Ooooooooh I go away for a couple of hours and we've gone full circle. Racist accusers, virtue signallers, people putting words in each others' mouths, it really is GD bingo.
Let me put the cherry on top for you guys:
Some of my best friends are black so I'm not racist.
i'll give you a tip.
you can be black and still be racist.
you can be white and have black friends and still be racist.

Purely because he's not british? So the bullying just didn't happen?
You talk as if people are setting up crowd donations for everyone who just happens to be an immigrant lol.
Being an immigrant is one variable, but an act of compassion toward an immigrant is not the same as doing it "purely because he's not white", there's a major, major difference.
I can assure you it's got nothing to do with "purely because he's not british". Ok some people out there are racists I ain't denying that, but most people are not donating "purely because he's not british".

So why isn't every white kid that had the crap beaten out of them and vids shared online receiving £££? There's plenty of those videos out there! What about that recent delivery guy who had his bike nicked by a scooter gang in London receiving £££?
???
Immigrant delivery guys have their scooters nicked all the time in london, they don't get special immigrant donation pages for them.
Just because one case has gained mass popularity, and people are donating, doesn't mean it's some racist thing JUST because he's white. There's a difference between doing something purely because someone is not white, and doing something because the dude is an immigrant.
I know the dude has to be non-white in order to be an immigrant but that doesn't mean CAUSE is because he's non-white.
