Former England football international Ian Wright
These aren’t isolated incidents!!! It’s daily!! This is what I received for posting and talking about #BlackLivesMatter yesterday. The abuse started a week earlier, the taunting is terrifying. Coming back and back again. pic.twitter.com/2un0ZbqOlV

While I think doxxing is a horrible and cruel act, I wouldn’t mind it used against people who post this sort of stuff online. Names and details to the police, instant fines for the perpetrators or their parents if the person is underage.
I wouldn’t be Ian Wrights biggest fan for things he’s done in the past but he’s a person like you or I and doesn’t deserve to be treated this way.
This is utterly depressing to see, with all that’s happened recently. Naming and shaming is the way to go. I honestly do not understand what makes some young idiot decide to racially abuse, in such a disgusting way, a well liked, former footballer. Wright, whatever your view of his TV persona, is utterly inoffensive. His playing career was exemplary. This abuse is vile, and it’s mortifying to see these losers use this country’s flag to spread their hate. Shameful.
It’s just so easy for people to do this. It probably makes them feel better about themselves somehow. If there was any chance of them being identified, they wouldn’t dream of it.
I hope Wright keeps naming and shaming these scrotes and giving them their 15 minutes of infamy. Racists shouldn’t have the comfort of anonymity to spread their filth.

I actually have a lot of time for Ian Wright myself
always worth the time to listen to, no matter what show he was on
(If you can stomach Clarkson for a bit, look up his spin on Top Gear during its BBC years)
I also think as a player, we never saw him at his full peak
A bit like when Chippy was at the top of his game during his Serie A years, especially if you didn’t have Channel 4, we didn’t
Maybe he arrived into the Premiership too late in his professional career
I dunno
But he’s a very likeable person
I’d say he’d be great company to be in the Jungle with
Horrible stuff. Black people should not have to put up with this. Really awful to see. I can’t imagine what its like to have a whole thread full of this on twitter

Poor old racists, unable to create a cover language for themselves, like the antisemites did with Zionist and the sectarian bigots did with unionist and nationalist.
