" Society of Black Lawyers at it again " ' RACISM '

After their attempt to ban Spurs chanting Yid's they are now turning their attentions to the FA


FA rejects claim by Society of Black Lawyers that it is 'institutionally racist' as police end Mark Clattenburg case.

The Football Association was forced on Wednesday to reject claims that it is “institutionally racist” amid fierce criticism of its performance in handling recent allegations of on-field racial abuse.

Peter Herbert, the chairman of the Society of Black Lawyers, is unhappy that the Metropolitan Police have dropped their investigation into the allegation that referee Mark Clattenburg used inappropriate language of a racial nature to Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel due to the lack of a victim coming forward or evidence.
The FA is expected to conclude its own investigation into the allegation this week, but Herbert has also attacked English football’s governing body for its “derisory” punishments in dealing with past incidents.
Clattenburg denies the allegation but Herbert had wanted the complaint investigated by the police as well as the FA.
“We think the FA is institutionally racist,” Herbert said. “What we’re saying is that the FA has no hate-crime strategy.
“To give you an example, the penalties on John Terry and Luis Suárez were derisory. And then you have 104 incidents where players are sent off for racial abuse and not one of them is reported to the police, while you have 120,000 teams playing every weekend up and down the country.

“We think the FA is institutionally racist, has not got a handle on this issue, and its refusal to report this matter to the police looks like it is one of those football cover-ups, which is well-versed. It sounds remarkably like the football industry wanted to have this issue swept under the carpet.”
David Bernstein, the FA chairman, responded quickly. “These ill-informed and unhelpful remarks are at odds with the progressive and responsible approach being followed by the game with the support of Government to deal with these serious issues,” he said.
“The FA will continue working to strengthen processes to eradicate all forms of discrimination in football.”
Herbert said the society would take up the FA’s handling of recent incidents with Hugh Robertson, the sports minister. “They are welcome to approach me but I cannot instruct Chelsea to make criminal complaints; that is an argument he needs to have with Chelsea,” Robertson said.
“We had the Downing Street summit on racism in football earlier in the year and the FA are coming back to us before the end of the year and as soon as we have that response we will assess what to do next.”

Society of Black Lawyers criticises Chelsea and FA after police investigation into Mark Clattenburg dropped.

They are a disgrace. Theyre using the "race row" to get buisness essentially its why they keep banging on about a Black Players Union as they will have more clients

I think your right there, the world is going mad, my grandfather would turn in his grave if he saw what was going on around us these days

They are an Embarrassment, even John Barnes has today come out publicly criticising them.

There should be no such organisation, we are all as one. They are demanding now to be seen by our Govt. They are nobodies who are using the race card and actually the players dont want to be involved with them.
The police said on sky last night.' There was no victim that came forward, no witness or no crime reported to them, but the only ones who contacted them was the society of the Black Lawyers.'
They need to put an end to these idiots once and for.

Can you imagine if someone formed a "society of white lawyers"? There'd be f*cking uproar. They seem to think just because they are a minority they can say and do what they want. They're taking liberties and it ain't acceptable. Tossers.

This is my least favourite argument ever. It misses the point by about a zillion miles.

Funny, NO one in any power will ever answer that.

They call themselves the Society of Black Lawyers... no wonder racism issues won't go away when they insist on isolating themselves by calling themselves that. Idiots who don't care about the racism issue, only their own voices and business.

I don't think it does, if it's a "Society of Black lawyers" then it sets its joining criteria by skin colour which by its very nature discriminates by skin colour which is ironically racist

By definition the 'society of black lawyers' has to be racist because you have to have a coloured skin to join. I just wish a white blonde haired lawyer would apply to join them and see what happens if SBL refused entry on the grounds of race.

Exactly.

Explain

They are Black lawyers who will only take cases for Black or Asian people

Is that Racism?

Go on then tell us how a white society would be racist and a black one not ? Or will you just say you wont understand and say nowt.

No it doesn't. As others have said, they are essentially isolating themselves by forming such a group. If a society of white lawyers was formed, the first argument we would hear (and rightly so) is "hold on, we shouldn't be seeing ourselves as white or black, we are all f*cking lawyers, RACISTS." But somehow it's right for them to do it? Bollocks.

The SBL is by definition racist. If I even talked about setting-up an association of white teachers I would be (quite rightly) sacked.

Right then, I'm starting The Society Of Honky Lawyers.

Our clever viral advertising campaigns will feature marketing themes such as:-
"Where's There Pain, Brother, There's A Claim, Brother".
"Is It Cos I is A Honky?"
"Is It Cos I Is Welsh?"

Call 0845 123456 and speak with one of our experienced Honky Lawyers to see if you have a claim. The first 50 callers will receive a limited edition gift pack of special Honky Lawyer Christmas Race-Cards.

And remember - "If The Race Card Is Played On You At Work, Call Your Honky Lawyer And Sue The Jerk."

Just take a second away from calling everything with BLACK or WHITE in the title 'racist' and think about it for a moment.

Do you honestly think that the SBL sat around and went "Well, we're all black, we only like black people, lets form a racist group!"?
I'll give you a clue: they probably definitely didn't.
They felt a NEED to create a group that would help people who might have not been getting sufficient help in the, in this case, legal arena. These people were... wait for it..... black.

If you want to set up a SWL you will probably be called a racist because there is no legitimate reason for creating it other than to prove an invalid point OR because you are a racist.

If you feel that any official organisation in the UK has discriminated against you for being white, then you go ahead (that doesn't include societies set up to help non-whites before you ask).

If that is aimed at me I am saying that is is racist for them to act that way.

Is it set up in a nation in which whites, as a minority, are often victims of institutional racism where they don't get as much help in professional fields, as a response to this and to give a strong backing to these people to help them achieve equality??

Or is it set up in Britain to prove a stupid point?

I'm guessing the latter then...

Right. There are already groups like that though. They burn crosses and wear pillow cases on their heads. You must have heard of them.

Don't let me stop you though.

What an absolutely ridiculous response.

Why can Black people be proud of their colour yet White people are automatically
racist for being proud of their colour

THE SOCIETY OF BLACK LAWYERS ISN'T A GROUP BASED JUST ON THEM BEING PROUD OF BEING BLACK.
Christ.

Also, black history is a story of fighting back over centuries to rise up and achieve equality despite always being oppressed at every turn.
White history is a story of slave drivers and imperialism.
