I know of a few white people who choose to not celebrate halloween, to say its just ethnic minorities is a bit ignorant, its just personal opinion
irrespective of the colour of their skin

Any statistics or figures? Or is this another baseless argument used to stir more racial hatred in the comments. Also Inb4 "None of my non-white friends celebrate it".

Have you even got an example of one person shot by the police because of their skin colour?

What shocked me the most was the idea of Santa Claus (the fact that an old man suddenly finds a way inside your house when everyone is asleep really terrified me). -

They have rival gangs of the same colour to worry about more.
Have you even got an example of one person shot by the police because of their skin colour?
But the number of unarmedblack people being shot is much higher than that of white people
Clearly, it's terrible that anyone at all is being shot while unarmed, but that does show racism -
