What happend in the Bradford riots?

Question

Why did it happen? what was it about?

Answer 1

There is more tension and racism
In Bradford because you have Indian living next to Pakistani`s
Some hate each other more than they hate other Nationalities
In Council offices where they work near each other,
They will not talk or acknowledge each other
because of there hatred
So they start fights
Blame everyone else
Cause lots of ****-s
Then get away with it
I remember when the young black lad got murdered in London,
Blamed and tried to charge white lads with it
Causing more racial hatred
I said it was blacks who killed him
Now years later with DNA evidence WHO is charged with murder,
I do not say it is all Blacks or all Packistani`s not even all Indian`s, or all whites,
It is the same problem all over the World
It is the MINORITY
Spoiling it for everyone else
We should all be able to live with and along side each other
Find the Trouble makers Preachers of hatred
No matter what Colour, Religion, OR Nationality.
Whoever they are,
Put them all on an ISLAND to live together ,
It will be a better world without them
Let the rest of the world get on with living together

The Bradford Riot was a short but intense period of rioting which took place on July 7, 2001, in Bradford. It was brought about as a result of tension between ethnic communities and agitation on the part of the far right. The riot was estimated to have involved 1000 (mainly) Muslim youths. During the riot there were numerous attacks on shops & property, including caucasian and Hindu owned businesses. A notable point of the rioting was the firebombing of Manningham Labour Club which has since been reopened, in spring 2006. A 48 year old man was jailed for twelve years for the arson attack which was ruled as endangering lives.
A mob numbering between 60 and 100 south asian youths smashed windows and threw molotov cocktails into the members club, forcing the 28 occupants to flee upstairs until the gang was dispersed by riot police. Exits were blocked by burning cars so the occupants could not flee the burning building. The most expensive act of the riot was the torching of a BMW dealership, which had previously been attacked in a 1995 disturbance. Several public houses were also attacked by Asian youths.
Several so-called revenge riots followed a few days later, with a hundred white youths attacking police in Ravenscliffe, and an Asian-owned Pizza restaurant, in Tong Street, destroyed by a gang of white youths.
More than 300 people were injured including 120 police during the riot. 36 people were arrested on the day of the riot (13 white and 23 asian).

Answer 3

Potential riots, hopefully there will be none. But it's like this the world over unfortunatly. People seem to forget that just 10 years ago this level of global unrest was unheard of. It's like Nazism all over again only instead of the Jews being blamed for everything it's Muslims. No other people have been killed more in the past decade than Muslims yet these are apparently people trying to take over the world just as it was believed (and still is today) that Jews are trying to control all wealth. The only winners are the rogue politicians because it's their pay packet and vote bank that swells - "vote for me I'll sort it out" sort of attitude. Bradford is a decent place, I've been there a couple of times for a bit of shopping and the foods good too, but for the racist and separatist MPs and councilors it’s votes to be won so they gather up the hot heads and inflame them to do stupid things. Birmingham is probably the only city with a white minority but because the politicians there are moderate and well financed the rogue cretins cannot gain footholds to stir up trouble there. I feel for the people as they couldn’t care less for politics but politics is the cause of all wars and tensions and shuld have no place in civilised society.

Answer 4

It was a result of ethnic tensions in the area. I think Bradford is an area of England that was inhabited by a large Muslim and Asian population, and the riot rose from tensions between these groups and local British youths, mainly.
