Really? I find that a massive stretch Either way, your hero is shitting all over the wishes of a grieving family. What a bloke If I encounter him in the Cross Guns I will give him a piece of my mind. He may be 82 now but that won't be taken into consideration I assure you. Fine year 1966 and that's nothing to do with the World Cup. Quote

The fact that you've even heard about them (and that action is being/has been taken) is a sign of a healthy functioning democracy with the right checks and balances in place. Not the opposite which people seem to want to paint it as. There’s been 3 that haven’t gone perfectly reasonably in the last week as I’ve already mentioned, any others you know of? Quote

Would it fuck and you know it. Ignore the turban. Ignore skin colour. Just establish the facts without any 'positive discrimination'. Not too much to ask is it? What if they were a Sikh with a Scouse accent? Quote
kent_white Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago Just now, royal white said: There’s been 3 that haven’t gone perfectly reasonably in the last week as I’ve already mentioned, any others you know of? No - but they're 3 from literally thousands of arrests that have been made. 3 too many - but a vanishingly small percentage. And all unique in their own way. So not something that sounds like a pattern. Unless the pattern you are looking for is that some ethnic minority or other looked to come out on the more favourable side. But this only works if you also highlight all the cases where the reverse is true. Which you won't. Because you won't hear about them. And in at least 2 of the three cases you mentioned - someone has been sent to prison as a result. So it's hardly an example of ethnic minorities getting off scott free at the expense of some 'native folk'. Quote

Not the opposite which people seem to want to paint it as. There are many cases of things being done unprofessionally. Information is available, it's just whether folk want to find it. Which is the reverse of you post. I agree that in general we don't need to know about the innumerable cases the police deal with. Numerous crimes are readily reported on, and rightly so, where they are particularly serious or unusual, however there is a dearth of reporting generally around issues of unequal policing, along various lines. As I said above, there are also numerous interviews with former officers available too. When former officers reveal previous experience of corruption or poor performance, then you would rightly expect them to make the news. Yet those revelations would appear to be very narrow in their scope- at least historically. That is now changing thankfully. Quote

One wasn’t jailed, 3 were sent to a rehab one was jailed. All I’m saying is it doesn’t look good on the police, the jurors and the judges something I brought up earlier in the week, Quote

I'm not sure the jury can be blamed for not giving the outcome you were hoping for. Especially seen as it was two different juries and they both concluded similarly. Presumably they had access to all the evidence. I've no idea about the racial make up of the jury if that's what you're driving at? Anyway the main peep was jailed who punched that female copper so fair do's. The second is being looked at again and I'd be surprised if they don't get jail time. The third the bloke has been jailed for 18 years. So no - taken as individual events - none of them look great. And if that's genuinely all you were driving at then I agree with you. Although they have to be taken in context. Quote

Yep, I can’t remember the last time the PM came out and spoke publicly about 2 different crimes in the space of a week, as for the jurors I’m siding with the police on this one, presumably they also had access to all the evidence and also spoke out about how they disagreed with the outcome.

Lt. Aldo Raine Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Everyone will have their own view obviously, but I do think the officer decided before attending the scene that Novak was a racist and allowed his own views to take over I can't really understand why there was a need to place Novak in handcuffs given the state he was in, and I wonder how much it was to signal to the murderer's family that they were taking this report of a racist incident seriously It was also apparently the case that the murderer himself was never placed in handcuffs at any point, either during or after his arrest, which seems extraordinary and is quite a contrast in approach I think it's unlikely the contemptuous attitude of that police officer happens in a vacuum, and there are probably questions to be asked about institutional bias and possibly even whether how things like the MacPherson principle/police training courses might've guided his behaviour The same disdain was on display during many of the grooming gangs cases, where there was evidence of underage girls being arrested for being drunk and disorderly in a room surrounded by Asian men, and no police officer asked questions about how or why she was there or what responsibility those men might have for her being there, and desperate fathers being arrested outside the houses where their daighters were held captive (itself a result of the refusal of the authorities to act) Quote

Two totally different cases. If you don't think black folk are targeted and treated differently by US cops then you're on Mars. Plus the copper actually knelt on the blokes neck till he died. It caused so much backlash and outrage across the US because blacks treatment by police over there spanning decades. Then it was hijacked by knobs and woke weirdos over this way. Quote

gonzo Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago 6 minutes ago, royal white said: I’d say Known convicts are treated different whatever the colour. But there's 100% an issue with the police targeting and treating black folk differently in the US. There's like decades of evidence to back this up. George Floyd in many people's eyes, including mine, was one of millions of cases. That incident lit the torch paper. Bit like the riots over here last year. We've got Tommy Robinson down leading protests in Southampton as we speak. Folk can't wait to kick off. Quote

There is evidence of that, there’s also evidence career criminals are treated different. Considering this one was a career criminal and also off his nut makes me thinks that’s the reason he ended up dead Quote
