One said: “He got chucked out as he was so drunk. He was cursing Muslims and saying he would do some damage.”
Can you imagine how a community would respond to similar behaviour from a non-white man?
I have to ask myself, had I been in the same situation as these people, would I have noticed? Would I have taken action? It's so very hard to see my own biases (self reflection - I'm not excusing the failures of others like me)

@quinterbeck It's so ~normalised~ to hear people talk like that. I distrust the police so much that I probably wouldn't have taken action either.
I would now, though. I hope this leads to people taking drunken racist threats more seriously.
