UK far right trouble

Remind me what god Adolf, Joe Stalin and Mao worshipped.

Because between them they had a reasonably impressive record for murdering people. As did Pol Pot. I don't think he was a Methodist either.
Expected. They were the self created gods of their own religion. They all had their books, chants etc etc. Mein Kampf or Marx were their bibles. kinda like Trumps Maga.
 
40 years ago It wasn't advisable to walk round those places you mention at night, absolute no go areas for those that didn't live there and amongst the highest crime rates in the North West, especially Moss Side. Think time had played a trick on your memory.
Yeah could be dodgy the moss. If you knew everyone you were ok.
I got shot at in Hulme in broad daylight from the flats....shit miself circa 1976

I was born in 1962, and spent my first 20 years in Moss Side (Claremont Rd) up until 1973, when we then moved to Longsight (Birch Hall Lane) until 1982. I never had any issues in that era.

40 years ago, Maine Road was in Moss Side and I walked there quite regularly for night matches. Never had a sniff of trouble. Maybe because I was big and hard, but I doubt it. (I doubt it very much.)

I'd be a lot more wary now walking through Manchester City Centre on a Friday night.

Safety in numbers, I'd did the same going to my first game around 1969, wouldn't have walked around that area at night on a non match day.

You never had one fight or attempted mugging or car theft? Or house burglary? Or the odd riot?
