Fury follows after Talarico nods along with white-hater's rant about Karmelo Anthony



Texas state Rep. James Talarico (D) recently held a town hall in Houston where he discussed what black voters would supposedly get in return for supporting him over Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) in the Texas U.S. Senate race.

During the town hall, Talarico appeared to agree that convicting the person who murdered Austin Metcalf was a "tragedy."

'It's a satanic strategy to deny truth in all aspects of life.'

"What is a tragedy is that James Talarico would rather side with dangerous criminals than keep Texas communities safe," National Republican Senatorial Committee regional press secretary Samantha Cantrell told Blaze News.

Talarico — the Democratic Senate candidate and part-time Presbyterian seminarian who has attempted to use Scripture to justify abortion, fought to keep the Bible out of school, taken money from an associate of dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, and championed keeping male athletes in women's sports — fielded several questions during the recent town hall, including one from a black identitarian named Amanda Meredith.

Meredith, who said she is a Navy veteran, complained about perceived "over-policing" in black neighborhoods, claimed that police shut down her Juneteenth event prematurely, and suggested that the "craziness in this country has gotten worse" under the Trump administration.

"Our people getting killed left and right. Karmelo Anthony's case is just a f**king tragedy," Meredith said while Talarico nodded in apparent agreement.

At no point did Talarico challenge the identitarian speaker.

Karmelo Anthony, a black teen, savagely murdered Austin Metcalf, a white teen, at a high school track meet last year. In early June, Anthony was convicted of murder and sentenced to 35 years in prison. A month later, Anthony's attorney filed an appeal and requested a new trial.

The identitarian whom Talarico nodded along with at his town hall said in a video shared to Instagram after Anthony's sentencing, "To the mother of Karmelo Anthony, I'm so sorry that the system failed your boy."

In the video, Meredith also accused local authorities, including police and prosecutors, of being "hateful"; claimed that Anthony was "simply defending himself" when he fatally stabbed his unarmed victim; suggested "we don't get justice here"; and said that she was preparing to leave the U.S. with her son to avoid being "terrorized by the white people in this country."

After Meredith concluded her rant at his town hall — in which she also suggested that her life in America is more traumatic than the time she spent in Afghanistan and other Middle Eastern nations — Talarico thanked her, apologized on behalf of law enforcement for supposedly shutting down her Juneteenth event an hour or two early, and criticized police.

"Thank you. Thank you for your question, and thank you for your service. This is unacceptable," said Talarico.

"Too often, we see law enforcement weaponized against black and brown communities in this state," said Talarico. "We have a deeply broken justice system. We have a deeply broken approach to policing."

Neither the Talarico nor the Paxton campaign responded to requests for comment.

Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Texas) was among the many critics puzzled by Talarico's response to Meredith's commentary, asking "why it was a tragedy for a black kid to go to jail for murdering a white kid?"

"There's an incredible hostility to truth in a world this secular. It's a satanic strategy to deny truth in all aspects of life. Men can be women and have babies. We have a Supreme Court justice who can't define the word woman," BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock told Blaze News. "When a teenager murders another teenager in front of multiple witnesses, the approved lie is to call the dead teenager the villain and the murderer the victim. Lying is a qualification for politics. Talarico clearly seeks a more important political office."

Jeff Metcalf, the father of the murdered teen, told Whitlock in mid-June that he has been inundated with death threats and disgusting messages from the murderer's supporters.

"Just the vile statements from everyone, and ones who are in denial of the truth. That’s the hardest part. It’s like now that the truth has been shown, all the facts have been presented. So all your lies have been debunked, but they still refuse to accept the verdict, the truth, and they’re all hanging their hat on this appeal," said the bereaved father.

Viral video forces UK prosecutors to drop charges against white man arrested after being beaten



A 20-year-old Briton was savagely attacked last month by multiple black individuals on the streets of Birmingham, England, within view of nearby police officers. A female officer ran into action but rather than help the apparent victim, she manhandled and arrested him while his attackers fled the scene.

Birmingham Police subsequently tried to paint the victim, Cody Harper, as the villain of the story and suppress evidence to the contrary.

'[WMP] let two thugs from ethnic minority backgrounds off.'

While law enforcement nearly succeeded in ruining the young man's life, the case against Harper has crumbled in the wake of significant backlash and criticism over two-tier policing in the United Kingdom.

The incident

Footage of the June 21 incident shows six black individuals hassling Harper on Birmingham's Broad Street. One man from the mob dressed in a black jacket launches a sneak attack from the right, knocking Harper to the ground, before another thug sucker-punches him in the back of the head, video shows.

Harper attempts to scramble to his feet, only to have a female police officer pin him against a nearby wall, video shows. Harper is unaware his attacker is an officer and so blindly throws a punch in self-defense, but only brushes off her cap.

Despite Harper's claims that the mob was "tryin' to smack me up," the female officer — who failed to identify herself as police — lunges for Harper's neck, proceeds to handcuff him, and appears to call him a "dick."

RELATED: What is anarcho-tyranny? Modern Britain gives a disturbing glimpse of our future.

"You're under arrest for assault on police," says the female officer. She and another female officer then march Harper over to a police car, and a male cop throws him in it.

The response

Footage of the incident went viral online, prompting an official response by police.

"We are aware of footage showing the arrest of a man after a disorder on Broad Street at 1.30am on 21 June. Officers found a group of men fighting," Birmingham Police said July 2. "As the incident was dealt with, an officer was punched. One man was arrested and charged with assaulting a police officer."

The police department noted further that following a review of the incident, it had "no concerns over the officer's actions" and was "satisfied that they were reasonable and proportionate in the circumstances."

The department urged the public not to share footage of the attack.

The public, however, declined to heed Birmingham Police's request, and the mistreatment of Harper became a major scandal, prompting commentary and criticism, including from lawmakers.

Zia Yusuf, a spokesman for Nigel Farage's Reform U.K. party, said at the time, "If you are a white person in Britain and you get assaulted by ethnic minority men: The police watch on and wait until you are on the floor before moving in to arrest YOU. The police make no attempt to arrest your assailants, letting them run off without consequence."

James McMurdock, a Reform U.K. member of Parliament, wrote, "I can’t let this go unchallenged. That young man was, in my opinion and based on the video below, the clear victim of an assault. The video shows, for reasons that are entirely beyond my comprehension, the officer steaming directly into the victim."

Robert Jenrick, another member of Parliament for Reform U.K., said that "it’s baffling that he was arrested while the two black men who attacked him weren’t."

Amid the backlash, police slightly changed their tune, acknowledging July 3 that "an assault has taken place" and announcing they were taking steps to "identify those involved."

Despite the update, Harper was still saddled with the assault charge and due in court on July 23.

No charges — for anyone

The Crown Prosecution Service has since dropped the case against Harper, having concluded that they didn't have enough evidence to prosecute the young man.

"Following a careful review of all the evidence, including video footage of the incident, we concluded there was insufficient evidence to prosecute the suspect for assaulting a police officer," said a Crown Prosecution Service spokesman. "We have therefore stopped proceedings and written to both the suspect and the complainant confirming this."

'A failure of justice here would have haunted him.'

"We recognize assaults committed against emergency workers are abhorrent crimes, both against the victim and against society as a whole," added the spokesman.

Yet, West Midlands Police, which encompasses Birmingham Police, isn't apologizing for its treatment of Harper.

On the contrary, the force told the Telegraph that while it respected the decision to discontinue the case against Harper, his arrest was "lawful and came after a police officer conducting her duties was hit."

WMP revealed that the two cowards who attacked Harper have been identified — but that neither man has been charged with assault. They were instead given out-of-court disposals, roughly the equivalent of a citation in the U.S.

While happy to see Harper's charges dropped, Christopher Philp, a Conservative Party member who serves as shadow home secretary, condemned WMP's decision to treat the attackers with kid gloves, calling it a "blatant example of two-tier policing."

"[WMP] let two thugs from ethnic minority backgrounds off with a slap on the wrist while attempting to prosecute a third man — who had himself been attacked — who was white," said Philp. "Only the intervention of the CPS thankfully stopped this from proceeding."

"Everyone should be treated the same regardless of skin color. But the extremist and misnamed ‘anti-racist’ ideology that some police leaders have signed up to brazenly calls for people to be treated differently based on skin color," added Philp.

The anti-racism guidance issued by the National Police Chiefs' Council still explicitly calls for treating people differently on the basis of race.

'Rape of Britain' ignored because of the Muslim vote, UK lawmaker tells Joe Rogan



Rupert Lowe, the head of Restore Britain in the U.K. Parliament, released a damning report on June 16, detailing the staggering scale of the horrific crimes committed against generations of young white girls in Britain by predominantly Muslim Pakistani gangs.

The 219-page "Rape Gang Inquiry Report" — which was commissioned by Lowe and led by Sammy Woodhouse, a rape-gang survivor who over a decade ago helped expose the mass rape of girls in Rotherham, England — estimated that the number of white girls subjected to "repeated rape, gang rape, trafficking, torture, pregnancy, forced Islamic conversion, and lifelong trauma" since the 1950s is "at the very least, 250,000."

'You're going to have a real problem.'

The report's disturbing insights not only into the crimes but into the British establishment's egregious response captured Joe Rogan's attention last month. In an interview released Wednesday, the podcaster sat down with Lowe to discuss what Elon Musk has elsewhere dubbed "the rape of Britain," as well as the correlated issues of mass migration, the failure of multiculturalism, western Islamicization, and the fall of civilizations.

After raising the alarm about the costly and seemingly interminable inundation of foreigners into the United Kingdom, Lowe — whose party advocates for mass deportations — highlighted Britain's problem with migrant populations, particularly those originating from Islamic nations, that "are increasingly living in small groups of people who haven't integrated, who are living under Sharia law, and who have their own courts."

Rogan, unsettled by Lowe's observation of parallel Islamic legal systems operating in the U.K. and allegedly tolerated by British authorities, said, "There's certain cultures that if you allow them to come into your community and then they institute the laws of the country where they came from, you're going to have a real problem."

"They don't live the way you live. They don't have the same respect for women that you have. They don't treat them the same way. They don't allow dogs," continued Rogan.

"The idea is supposed to be that Western society is inclusive and progressive because we're intelligent and educated and we care — but you can care so much that you let in criminals, and then you give those criminals all your money, and then the criminals can take over your country, slowly but surely."

Rogan suggested that people are wrong to be skeptical about the possibility and ramifications of such a takeover, referring back to the collapse of the empires of yesteryear.

"People look at the Colosseum, you look at ancient Greece, and they think, 'Wow, I wonder what happened to those guys.' What do you think happened?" said Rogan. "Probably the same s**t that's happening right now to England, the same s**t that could have happened to America. It's — civilizations fall apart for various reasons. And one great way to get them to fall apart is to bring in a bunch of people and they don't have to follow your laws."

Lowe bridged the topics of civilizational collapse and rapacious parallel societies to the rape gang inquiry, suggesting that he and others had to crowdfund the report because the "government will not have a statutory inquiry" — a special kind of state inquiry that can compel witnesses to give evidence or to supply documents — because the powers that be are sensitive to the "Muslim bloc vote."

Lowe claimed that as the result of his efforts to force disclosures in Parliament relevant to the inquiry, it has become clear that "a lot of the data has not been properly collected" by the police, the National Health Service, social services, and other institutions with regard to the crimes and the particulars of their perpetrators.

The Restore Britain leader suggested further that while the powers that be know that members of imported populations are disproportionately prowling about and preying on native British girls, "they don't want to admit that their multicultural experiment" has failed, "which as you probably know, famously Enoch Powell warned would fail with his ... 'Rivers of Blood' speech, for which he was heavily criticized."

"They don't want to be called racist," added Lowe.

Rogan said, "We hope you guys turn it around."

Not again: British cops arrest another white victim of violence rather than minority assailant suspects



The British public and the world at large have been provided with yet more evidence that the U.K. justice system holds whites — white men in particular — to a different standard than virtually every other group.

Damning footage shows a group of six black individuals hectoring a young white man on Broad Street in Birmingham, England, on June 21.

'The police have lost the benefit of the doubt.'

As the voices grow louder, the individual focus of the mob's rage — a 20-year-old white man who has been identified as Cody Harper — turns his head to address someone to his left, video shows.

Apparently seizing upon the distraction, a man from the mob dressed in a black jacket makes a cowardly attack from the right, knocking Harper to the ground. The victim of this sneak attack attempts to stand up, but a different coward rushes in, this time punching Harper in the back of the head.

Harper attempts once again to regain his footing — only to be tackled against a nearby wall by a female police officer who was apparently disinterested in the attackers now fleeing the scene.

Disoriented after having been thrown to the ground, then sucker-punched, Harper blindly throws a punch in self-defense — but succeeds only in brushing off the officer's cap.

The female officer — who failed to identify herself as police — lunges for the Harper's neck then proceeds to handcuff the victim.

After Harper points out both that "they're tryin' to smack me up" and that he was just trying to "go home," the female officer appears to call him a "dick."

RELATED: UK cop failures, Sikh killer's lies in Henry Nowak case are EVEN WORSE than previously disclosed

"You're under arrest for assault on police," says the female officer, who — with another female police officer — proceeds to march Harper over to a police car. A male cop then shoves Harper into the police cruiser, and more female cops are later gathered in the area, video shows.

A witness off-camera explains to one of the officers: "Someone clotheslined him, then someone hit him from behind, and that's when you went in. All I can say in his defense is he probably thought you were one of the attackers at that moment."

The woman nods comprehendingly and replies, "Right. OK. So someone assaulted him first, right? OK."

After the footage of this incident went viral online, Birmingham Police said in a July 2 statement, "We are aware of footage showing the arrest of a man after a disorder on Broad Street at 1.30am on 21 June. Officers found a group of men fighting. As the incident was dealt with, an officer was punched. One man was arrested and charged with assaulting a police officer."

In addition to characterizing a violent, seemingly unprovoked mob attack on a single individual as a "fight" and claiming their lady officer was in the right, Birmingham Police implored the public not to share video of the incident — just as police in Northern Ireland asked the public last month not to spread video evidence of a beheading attempt, allegedly by a Sudanese asylum-seeker.

"The incident has been reviewed, and we have no concerns over the officer's actions and we are satisfied that they were reasonable and proportionate in the circumstances," the police department said in its July 2 statement. "We would ask that footage is not further shared to allow the legal process to take its course."

The official response by police exacerbated the public outrage over the incident, including from lawmakers.

James McMurdock, a Reform UK member of Parliament, wrote, "I can’t let this go unchallenged. That young man was, in my opinion and based on the video below, the clear victim of an assault. The video shows, for reasons that are entirely beyond my comprehension, the officer steaming directly into the victim."

"The officer made no effort to prevent the attack or apprehend the men who had just administered the violence. What I see in the video is the officer using speed and aggression at the moment of peak danger and confusion against the victim," continued McMurdock. "The victim then controls himself the moment he realises it is now a police officer attacking him and not one of the multiple men who were attacking him a fraction of a second earlier."

McMurdock said that Birmingham Police should drop the charges and put questions to the female officer about "why she went for the victim on the ground and not the attackers!"

Robert Jenrick, another member of Parliament for Reform UK, said that "it’s baffling that he was arrested while the two black men who attacked him weren’t."

In addition to raising concern about "the clear unequal treatment" by the female officer, Jenrick took issue with Birmingham Police's characterization of the attacks as a "fight."

"This wouldn’t be a one off incident either. We saw two-tier policing by Hampshire Police when they came to the scene of Henry Nowak. We saw it for decades across the county with the Grooming Gangs that went unpunished," wrote Jenrick. "The police have lost the benefit of the doubt in the eyes of many. They’ve had enough."

After similar critiques, the Birmingham Police issued a revised statement on July 3, this time expressing interest in an "assault." The revised statement refers to the arrest of a "20-year-old man," presumably Harper, but does not suggest he is the victim of the assault.

'Our commitment to racial equity means producing equality of policing outcomes.'

"We are carrying out an investigation to identify people involved in an assault in Birmingham city centre," said Birmingham Police. "We are aware of footage on social media showing the incident before the man is arrested. Recognising that an assault has taken place, we are now carrying out active enquiries to identify those involved."

Birmingham Police noted further that "although officers were in the area when this assault took place, they were involved in the arrest of another man at the time."

Cody Harper is set to appear at Birmingham magistrates' court on July 23.

This incident took place just weeks after Southampton police released bodycam footage showing their two-tiered approach to the scene of the murder of 18-year-old Henry Nowak.

After fatally stabbing Nowak in an unprovoked attack on Dec. 3, a knife-wielding Sikh named Vickrum Digwa told police that he was the victim of a racist attack.

When police from the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary arrived on the scene, they reflexively adopted Digwa's framing of events and treated Nowak as a racist and a criminal as the teen lay dying — handcuffing him and brushing off his repeated complaints about having been stabbed and being unable to breathe.

The officers instead took a sympathetic approach to Digwa, never once handcuffing him even after discovering Nowak's stab wounds.

Officers' approach to Nowak and Harper may be informed, in part, by the anti-racism guidance issued by the National Police Chiefs' Council, which explicitly calls for treating people differently on the basis of race:

Our commitment to racial equity means producing equality of policing outcomes for people from different ethnic groups by responding to individuals and communities according to their specific needs, circumstances, and experiences, with understanding that these will be racialised and with the aim of reducing harm. It does not mean treating everyone "the same" or being "colour blind" (racial equality).

UK cop failures, Sikh killer's lies in Henry Nowak case are EVEN WORSE than previously disclosed



A knife-wielding Sikh named Vickrum Digwa fatally stabbed 18-year-old Englishman Henry Nowak in Portswood, England, on Dec. 3, 2025. Adding insult to injury, police officers from the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary treated Nowak as a racist and a criminal in his final moments — handcuffing him as he lay bleeding and brushing off his repeated complaints about having been stabbed and being unable to breathe.

The British public was confronted with some of the horrific details of the murder after Digwa's murder trial last month and after bodycam footage evidencing Nowak's mistreatment by police was released earlier this month. They erupted in protest, demanding the resignations and/or prosecution of the police involved and for the justice system to rectify its anti-white protocols.

'I'm pushing on a f**king stab wound.'

The scandal not only prompted condemnations from British lawmakers but a response by Vice President JD Vance, who stated that "the proper response — the only response — is righteous anger."

Additional police bodycam footage from the night of Nowak's death and a full transcript of the encounter released by the Crown Prosecution Service and published by the BBC this week shed more light on the insidious nature of the Sikh's lies and police officers' mistreatment of the white victim.

The footage shows Digwa setting the scene after police arrived with a torrent of lies, stating:

He pushed my turban off my head. ... So I'm a Sikh, obviously, and he started grabbing on my hair, started dragging me around, and obviously from there, then obviously an altercation's happened. My brother's then seen it, stopped it, and that's when [Nowak] then started stumbling around, started climbing around all these sort of bits and bobs and stuff like that.

Digwa falsely claims further in the footage that Nowak was "obviously drunk"; that Nowak had "just started escalating the situation" and called him a "Paki"; and that the blood on Nowak "must have been [from] when we punched him."

After Digwa said that he had been "racially attacked," an officer says, "I know, I know, OK, I know," adding, "But we don't know what's gone on, mate."

Never once does Digwa mention that he used his eight-inch Sikh blade to stab Nowak five times, including in the chest, face, and twice in the back of the legs.

RELATED: Vance defends 'righteous anger' over white English teen's death in police custody after Sikh murderer falsely cried racism

The footage also shows police arrest Digwa on suspicion of attempted murder — but treating him differently than they treated Nowak. Whereas police handcuffed the dying teen, the police never bothered binding the murderer's hands.

Mark Nowak, the victim's father, said earlier this month that unlike his son, the Sikh murderer was curiously "afforded decency. He was believed. He was not handcuffed when arrested. He was not handcuffed when transported to the police station. As far as we understand, he was never handcuffed at all."

Police confirmed to the BBC that Digwa was "never handcuffed" during his four days in custody prior to being formally charged for murder.

"The contrast is unbearable," added Mark Nowak.

The BBC highlighted that the officer who spoke politely to Digwa and refrained from handcuffing him is the same individual later heard in bodycam footage saying, "Don't think you have, mate," after Nowak says that he has been stabbed.

According to the BBC's review of the full transcript, it took police officers eight minutes to discover and locate the fatal stab wound in Nowak's chest after they arrived on the scene.

Nowak told police he could not breathe nine times and said four times he had been stabbed, but the officers initially brushed off those complaints and began taking them seriously only after Nowak became unresponsive, at which point one officer states in the transcript, "I'm not sure he's breathing."

After uncuffing the unconscious victim whom they had arrested, police started chest compressions.

Around the five minute and 24 second mark, a female officer asks for a flashlight so she can properly inspect Nowak for a stab wound. Two minutes later, she finally gets around to cutting Nowak's clothing and states, "Yeah, he's got a stab ... there's a mark there."

One officer states, "That makes it worse. He's got a stab. ... I'm pushing on a f**king stab wound."

The female officer replies, "That's OK. It's fine. .... It's not coming out. It's fine. Keep going. Keep going. It's not bleeding out."

The officers continued chest compressions until a paramedic arrived on the scene, where Nowak was pronounced dead at 12:37 a.m. on Dec. 4.

The officers' handling of the case is presently under investigation by a watchdog outfit, the Independent Office for Police Conduct.

Restore Britain leader Rupert Lowe said earlier this month, "Young, white British men are bleeding to death in the street as a direct result of our racist establishment. I will never forget, and I will never forgive."

African suspected of trying to cut white Briton's head off identified — while police fret about online critics



The Sudanese asylum-seeker arrested for the horrific attempted beheading that took place in Northern Ireland on Monday night appeared in court on Wednesday, where he declined to enter a plea.

In addition to being identified, the African has been slapped with additional criminal charges after the brutal attack he is accused of committing prompted a fiery night of rioting in Belfast as well as demands for transparency and a withdrawal from the EU Migration Pact from rightist lawmakers.

'We will be going after them.'

Now that the liberal establishment has pivoted from feigning horror over the attempted beheading to expressing outrage over the backlash, police are threatening to arrest online influencers who raised the alarm about the incident.

Quick background

A black male was caught on camera sitting atop a bloodied white male in the middle of a north Belfast street, shouting something in a foreign tongue, then carving with a knife into the victim's face and neck.

The attack was interrupted by a Good Samaritan armed with a wooden hurl stick who gave the attacker a good thwacking. Another two men rushed in to help — one attempting to pull the victim to safety and the other giving a few well-placed kicks to the aggressor's head.

The attacker, who was initially identified by a police as Somali but later confirmed to be a Sudanese national, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder.

The victim, who has been identified as Stephen Ogilvie and a British citizen, was taken to the hospital in serious condition with grievous injuries to his face, neck, and back.

Suspect identified

Gavin Robinson, a member of the British Parliament for East Belfast, stated on Tuesday that the Sudanese suspect was living in the U.K. under a five-year visa.

Police subsequently confirmed that the suspect, 30-year-old Hadi Alodid, entered Northern Ireland from the Republic of Ireland in 2023, applied for asylum, and was granted leave to remain in the country until 2028.

The Telegraph reported that the suspect had "used a loophole" in the British asylum system — traveling from Sudan to Paris and then to Dublin, before taking a bus to Belfast and then claiming asylum.

In addition to the original charge of attempted murder, Alodid has been charged with possessing a knife in a public space and threatening to kill a woman who works as a radiographer for the National Health Service.

Alodid appeared at Laganside magistrate's court on Wednesday, where he communicated via an Arabic interpreter. The stabbing suspect — who allegedly left Ogilvie with no left eye, a damaged right eye, and deep cuts on his face and back — refused legal representation and declined to respond to the charges.

Alodid was denied bail at the urging of the Police Service of Northern Ireland.

Police told the court that the African's release posed a threat of further offenses and a flight risk and could lead to "significant public disorder," reported the BBC.

The suspect's next court date is July 8.

Failed containment

The PSNI implored the general public on Tuesday not to share footage of the horrific attack, but the British public evidently had other ideas.

To the great chagrin not only of police but of those leftist lawmakers who expressed concerns over the inevitable political fallout, the video — yet another damning reminder of the isles' disastrous immigration policies and failed dogma of multiculturalism — went viral with the help of remigration activist Tommy Robinson and others.

Belfast was subsequently rocked by protests and, on Tuesday evening, riots in which homes, cars, and a bus were torched.

Some of the hundreds of black-clad young men who roamed the streets of the capital city on Tuesday reportedly shouted, "Foreigners out!" and pelted asylum-seeker housing with rocks.

'F**k 'em.'

Assistant Chief Constable Ryan Henderson of the PSNI said in a statement, "Sporadic pockets of disorder have broken out in a number of locations across Northern Ireland this evening, including incidents in which a number of vehicles have been set on fire."

Prime Minister Keir Starmer and various other lawmakers condemned the riots — in many cases more forcefully than they condemned the attempted beheading.

"The scenes in Belfast last night were shocking and completely unacceptable," Starmer stated on Wednesday morning. "There is no justification for the violence and disorder that we saw threatening our communities, nor for those who encouraged it, online or elsewhere. It is clear that people were targeted last night because of their background and I will not tolerate it."

Police have arrested several alleged rioters and are threatening to arrest online influencers over their provocative commentary regarding the attempted beheading.

"It’s very easy, these days especially, to look online and be persuaded, by people who know nothing about Northern Ireland, know nothing about the communities in Northern Ireland, know nothing about the history of Northern Ireland, to take actions that they otherwise would not take," said PSNI Chief Constable Jon Boutcher. "Stop looking at this nonsense. Stop listening to these idiots. We will be going after them for the incitement that they’ve been doing."

"I'm not talking about individuals in this press conference, but people will know who were online last night and inciting this behavior. They will know what they were doing. We will be going after them," added Boutcher.

Despite this latest threat of a crackdown over online speech, Elon Musk, Tommy Robinson, and Restore Britain leader Rupert Lowe have not rounded their critiques or softened their rhetoric.

Robinson, for instance, wrote, "Stop importing rapists, murderers, and sex pests from savage third world countries who put young girls [sic] lives at risk. Once you have advocated for that, and the removal of unwanted illegal migrants from communities who never asked for or wanted them, then you can take the high road. Until then, keep your mouth shut."

Lowe wrote early Wednesday, "Millions must go," and "the Belfast victim has lost his left eye and has severe damage to his right eye. Hacked at the neck, with his eyes gouged. Men who inflict this brutal evil on others do not deserve to live."

Musk shared a post rejecting the calls for calm, then tweeted, "F**k 'em."

British cop involved in Henry Nowak murder case resigns as fury intensifies over damning arrest footage



Henry Nowak, a white teenager headed for home in the Southampton suburb of Portswood, England, was savagely attacked on Dec. 3 by a knife-wielding Sikh named Vickrum Digwa.

The attacker stabbed Nowak several times, filmed his desperate attempt to flee, and loomed over him as his chest cavity filled with blood. Adding grievous insult to injury, Digwa, joined by members of his family at the scene, falsely told police that his bleeding and crumpled victim was the real aggressor — that Nowak was a racist who attacked him, called him a "Paki," and knocked off his turban.

'A deep line needs to be drawn in the sand.'

Digwa was convicted of murder last week and sentenced on Monday to a minimum of 21 years in prison.

While Digwa will be going away, the scandal surrounding Nowak's death isn't — certainly not after the release of damning body camera footage showing how poorly police treated the teen in his final minutes.

Hundreds of protesters swarmed Southampton Central Police Station on Tuesday carrying English flags and signs that said, "All lives matter," and demanding justice for Nowak, whom police arrested for assault, handcuffed, and treated as a criminal, all on the basis of Digwa's lies.

In addition to reciting the Lord's Prayer, denouncing the police involved in Nowak's arrest, and chanting "Christ is king," some protesters yelled, "I can't breathe" — a phrase the young man apparently said to police nine times before losing consciousness, footage revealed.

Remigration activist Tommy Robinson stressed to his fellow protesters that the public does not want the officers involved to resign "with fully bloody pensions" but to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

A spokesman for the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary, which oversees Southampton, confirmed to Blaze News that three of the officers who responded to the scene of Nowak's murder in December are still serving but that one officer has resigned.

The spokesman noted further that the Independent Office for Police Conduct, which is investigating the incident, is treating the officers as witnesses, meaning they are "not subject to any restrictions."

The police department complained on social media Tuesday about "the significant spread of misinformation online" and has asked that "people avoid harmful speculation online" while the IOPC investigation is under way.

While Britons took to the streets to signal their displeasure, lawmakers and other officials — confronted with the bloody results of years of woke policies — have roundly condemned the murder and character assassination of Nowak.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer, for instance, called the body camera footage "harrowing" and noted that "it's absolutely right that the IOPC is looking at this."

Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch blasted Britain's "race-based laws" and "two-tiered policing."

"The fear of being called racist was greater than dealing with Henry Nowak’s murder," said Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, who demanded on Monday that England's attorney general ensure that Digwa can never walk free again. "We should respond to this with pure cold rage."

"Enough is enough — a deep line needs to be drawn in the sand. Talk is weak. Britain needs to say no more, and mean it," wrote Rupert Lowe, the leader of Restore Britain.

In her lengthy response to the scandal, British Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood made sure to reassure the public that "everyone in this country is equal before the law," that there can be no justification for vigilante justice, and that the Labour regime "is committed to halving knife crime in this decade."

'White lives matter': UK erupts over footage of English teen's demise in handcuffs after stabbing by Sikh thug



Liberals in the United Kingdom have worked feverishly in recent years to paint white Britons uniquely as history's villains, undermine their unique claims to the isles, and erase them from British history.

What's more, police and some in the justice system have shown that they are willing to hold whites — white men in particular — to a different standard than virtually every other group.

The British public has now been confronted with incontrovertible evidence of this campaign's influence and impact in the case of Henry Nowak, an 18-year-old Englishman who died at the feet of maligning and disbelieving police.

'Henry told officers that he could not breathe nine times.'

Walking home from a night out with his soccer team on Dec. 3, Nowak encountered a 23-year-old Sikh named Vickrum Digwa, who, on account of a religious exemption to the general ban on carrying knives in Britain, was armed.

In an unprovoked attack, Digwa stabbed the University of Southampton finance student repeatedly with an eight-inch blade — a blade that Digwa's mother, Kiran Kaur, later hid in an effort to aid her killer kin.

Digwa and his family members also proceeded to falsely tell police not only that Nowak was the real aggressor — a supposed racist who had attacked Digwa and knocked off his turban — but that Nowak hadn't been stabbed and was just exaggerating about his injuries.

Even as Nowak lay dying, officers from the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary reflexively entertained the Digwa family's lies and handcuffed the white teen. Nowak's handcuffs were removed only after the "severity of his condition was becoming clear," police claimed.

After much public clamor, the damning police body camera footage of Nowak's arrest was finally released on Monday, showing the nightmarish scene, including:

  • Digwa and his kin standing over the dying Englishman, then lying about what happened;
  • police dismissing Nowak's claims about being stabbed;
  • Nowak begging repeatedly for help while being handcuffed; and
  • a female officer suggesting they should confirm he was not stabbed, then aborting the effort after seeing one of Digwa's slash marks on the victim's face.

William Mousley, the Southampton judge who oversaw the murder trial, noted in his sentencing remarks on Monday that after stabbing his "defenseless" victim, Digwa — accompanied by his brother, Gurpreet — abused the teen and made "films of Henry suffering" and trying to escape before the arrival of police.

"You lied to him that you had been attacked, picking up on his question about whether it had been accompanied by racism by falsely claiming that Henry had called you a 'Paki,'" said Mousley. "I am sure that Henry had said nothing racist."

Mousley sentenced Digwa to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 20 years and 190 days before any consideration can be given to possible parole.

According to the BBC, the attorney general's office is reconsidering the prison sentence after being deluged by requests to review it under the unduly lenient sentence scheme.

Digwa's mother, Kiran Kaur, is set to be sentenced for attempting to help her son cover up his crime. Digwa's father, Moga Singh, and his brother, Gurpreet Digwa, have reportedly been slapped with multiple weapons charges and are expected to appear in court on Tuesday.

After Digwa's sentencing, Mark Nowak, Henry's father, publicly addressed his dead son's egregious treatment by the Southampton police as evidenced in the video footage.

"When police arrived, Henry was lying on the floor, barely able to sit up and plainly in severe medical distress," said the bereaved father. "With his final words, he told officers that he could not breathe. He told them he had been stabbed. In fact, Henry told officers that he could not breathe nine times. He told them he had been stabbed four times."

"The response from one officer was 'I don't think you have, mate,'" continued Mark Nowak. "The police have said they were misled by the murderer and that the scene when they arrived was complex. Unfortunately, it seems to us the truth is much simpler."

Mark Nowak emphasized that police chose not to believe his son or the member of the public who called and reported someone claiming to have been stabbed. Instead, they dragged his bloody son across the gravel, wrenched his hands behind his back, handcuffed him, formally arrested him for assault, and read him his rights.

"Henry did not die with dignity. He did not die with the care he deserved. He lost consciousness before anyone believed him," said Mark Nowak.

'Look back in anger.'

While assigning to Digwa all blame for his son's death, Mark Nowak noted that his son should not have died in police custody and that "the way he was treated was inhumane and degrading."

The father noted further that, unlike his son, the Sikh murderer was curiously "afforded decency. He was believed. He was not handcuffed when arrested. He was not handcuffed when transported to the police station. As far as we understand, he was never handcuffed at all."

"The contrast is unbearable," said Mark Nowak.

Others around the U.K. and around the globe have reacted similarly to the police video.

Nigel Farage, the leader of the Reform UK Party, said, "This is the most shocking footage of discrimination that you will ever see. A white boy being handcuffed by police officers more concerned by an accusation of racism than an act of murder. This must be a turning point. White lives matter too."

Whereas Prime Minister Keir Starmer offered a weak response coupled with a condemnation of "knife crime," British Member of Parliament Rupert Lowe, formerly of the Reform UK Party and now the leader of Restore Britain, offered a forceful series of condemnations and demanded "prosecutions for what happened to Henry Nowak."

'Now this is the moment for real f**king change.'

"Young white British men are bleeding to death in the street as a direct result of our racist establishment. I will never forget, and I will never forgive," Lowe said on Tuesday.

Lowe vowed to "look back in anger" and suggested that were his party in power, Digwa would be put to death, "the police officers on the scene who allowed Henry to die [would] face criminal charges for gross negligence manslaughter," and "Digwa's foreign family [would] be deported."

"Sara Sharif. The Nottingham killer. The Manchester bomber. The grooming gangs. Now Henry Nowak," wrote Conservative Party MP Claire Coutinho, the shadow minister for equalities. "We have to unpick the mentality across our public services that says accusations of racism are more important than protecting the public from harm."

"If we stay the hand of those who are meant to protect the public, if we tie them up in knots with unconscious bias training and Islamophobia definitions, then we are making their jobs even more impossible and we can see from case after case that we are failing to protect the public from serious harm," added Coutinho.

Conservative Party leader Kemi Badnoch similarly criticized the "training that the police have been given" and the "race action plans" implemented in the wake of the Black Lives Matter mania earlier this decade.

"Now this is the moment for real f**king change, not George Floyd, a dead crackhead in America," said activist Tommy Robinson.

The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary did not respond to Blaze News' request for comment.

Robert France, the temporary deputy chief constable, apologized on Thursday for the police's grievous mistreatment of Nowak, stating, "I am sorry that in the moments before he lost consciousness, [Nowak] had been handcuffed and arrested."
