TBH I'm surprised there aren't more shootings in Brum. It's an awful place.

The M5, M6 and M42 where originally planned as walls around the cursed city, then someone thought it would be good to tarmac the top and let people drive on them.

Who knows what really happened last night, a few bits of weirdness on twitter last night going on about 'brothers being killed' and 'how can this happen in the holy month' etc

Whole area is utter scum

It does sound like gang related violence.

It's the sort of thing that happens on a daily basis in London. Relatively rare in Birmingham.

Really three hundred strong punchups with guns on a dally basis in London, property prices seem unaffected by it smile
I would take you seriously if you weren't relying on the Daily Mail for your "facts"

I missed the bit about the guy who was shot refusing water because he was fasting!

Just read that on Lord Aleems Twitter feed so it should send Pistonheads into a frenzy

Indeed - a 300 strong punch up is known as a 'bloody good night out' in Liverpool biggrin

Why should it out of interest? I mean that if it is true then I would say he was a bit of a Muppet for refusing it but hell if that's his bag and he is of age it's his call.

Now the parents of a shot child of 10 refusing to allow him to be fed water 'because he is fasting' that would cause a proper frenzy!

Not in the slightest.
It's nice weather, good for a riot punch

You're scenario would cause more of a frenzy, I was just thinking of the bd love child of the Lord Aleem burning cars thread and the annual Ramadan thread.

It's ridiculous to say this sort of thing happens on a daily basis in London. Totally absurd.

It's ridiculous to say it happens every day in any part of the country.

As st holes go though, London is by far the worst. I go everywhere with work, I'd far sooner drive into the centre of Brum than anywhere in London. With the A38M it's a whole fk load easier too.
