I'll say. Their family made a public statement against posts exactly like the one above.hburns wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 4:35 pm~Arget wrote: something
However, since then a number of people unconnected to the Rigby family have argued that another memorial should be provided on the spot of the murder. Many of these people are well-meaning but their efforts have been adopted by groups with views that are at odds with the wishes of the Rigby family.

Not sure which right wing outlet you get your news from but sometimes its better to get the facts first.

The family knew him, we didn't, so when we say "Remember Lee Rigby" who exactly do we think we're trying to remember? The answer is of course that none of the people sharing these memes actually give a hoot about remembering Lee Rigby himself, otherwise they'd be listening to his family. What they're remembering is that one time where they had a convenient excuse to spout a load of racist bile, and now they keep him stashed away to play like a Top Trumps card whenever someone comes for the racists.
