Stop and Search

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Black guy I used to work with had the same name as a well known Britpop icon and said every time he got pulled over by Old Bill and gave them his name they went mental and gave him loads of grief about mugging them off until he pulled his ID out. I thought it was a relatively funny anecdote until he added just how many times this happened and how many times he'd 'randomly' get pulled over. Wasn't that funny after that.

Bit long winded way of saying 'ooo i have a black friend'

You sure the 'old bill went "mental"' ? Or is that just another distorted image to give to our police..

The point here is that Boris isn’t concerned whether stop & search works or not, or if it damages ongoing community relations. This is all about posturing to the blue rinsers in prep for a General Election - nothing more.

I am not a blue rinser,I use only the best. "Just for Men" mid brown colour, it does what it says on the tin.

Many, many years ago when I was in my early twenties I had a couple of very tasty motor scooters. I found that every Sunday morning when I went for a spin, I would get pulled over. I always carried my licence and insurance as it got to be a bit of a bind. After the 6th stop in 5 weeks you get a bit fed up. I was always polite and they were reasonable with me. Even got comments like " Oh! You are older than you look " ( I still look only 21 ). But it started to grate after a while

The white privilege is already strong on this thread.

There's now't wrong with that, seems as if Disoriented should report you for Racism, strong anti whiteism going on here

I don't care if stop and search upsets the ethnic minorities, limp wristed sandal wearers, raving looney socialists or Proposition Joe and his ilk. If it brings down knife crime and saves another life, black, white, whatever then another Mum, Dad is not grieving, that is all that matters

Do you think it's as simple as that? More stop and searches = less knife crime ?

What about the kids who get stopped constantly, over and over, with nothing on them but they are the 'wrong' skin colour. Do you think that might change their attitude to the police and authority down the line?

So bloody what, just so long as it keeps kids alive, especially my two I would put up with the way police dealt with me during the Miners strike "Winter of discontent" Pole tax, Wapping Dispute, I don't care just so long as there alive. Boris is too left wing for me.

You don't see how a change in attitude and trust for disadvantaged kids could lead to more crime down the line? Ok.
Your last sentence says it all.

Perhaps a police force comprised solely of white middle class women could bring a different perspective to this crisis, reach out to criminal gangs and cooperate to find solutions?

When I was 18 I had a scooter. I was coming out of the Bookies one Saturday morning when a fat cop pulled me up and asked if the scooter was mine. Of course it was I said. He then proceeded to warn me that me and my scooter mates better behave ourselves or him and his mates would come down on us like a ton of bricks. What a w*nker I thought not having done anything wrong. Before long someone had spray painted " Fat cop !..... you w*nker" on the police station wall.

[ContrifibulatoryFred]

I'd like to know what there aren't more Motability Scooter stop and searches
I reckon that's a hotbed of drug trafficking

Have no fear, Caroline Lucas to the rescue, she thinks she has all the answers as to how to fix Brexit and I would guess that perhaps these ladies will also come up with good ideas to sort out all the law and order problems in Uk as well !! That's it then, all problems sorted !

Green MP Caroline Lucas calls for all-female emergency cabinet.
Among the women Ms Lucas has invited to join her are Labour's shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry, Liberal Democrat leader Jo Swinson, Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, Conservative MP Justine Greening, and Plaid Cymru Westminster leader Liz Saville Roberts. The others are: Heidi Allen, Kirsty Blackman, Yvette Cooper, Sylvia Hermon, and Anna Soubry. She has asked to meet the 10 women in the coming days.

Ahhhh the poor little dears Yes if you treat them leniently they pay you back, no good deed goes unpunished, they don't/wont appreciate what you do for them, they ain't got the brains or inclination to overcome there own stupid ideology, and while your wasting time on them what about the other non disadvantaged that you have deliberately ignored. Your a typical limp wristted left wing Corblimey lover

TBF, they cant do worse than the current mob trying to sort it out.

Difference? kettle, black, good one son must try harder, got to go now, its' been good knowing you

[Redcard]

Facts are facts, but the left wing looneys cry racist whenever they are pointed out.
Fact one the vast majority of terrorist acts throughout the world are perpetuated by Muslims.
Fact 2, the overwhelming majority of knife murders in the u.k. Are carried out by blacks on blacks.
That explains why certain groups may be disproportionately stopped and searched , it’s because they are more likely to be engaged in criminal activity.
I don’t have a problem with being stopped and searched because I have nothing to hide, and I would go further, I think everybody should have to carry identification cards impregnated with their dna.

[point nine one eight]

They can't be Red coloured cards, or Blue, Yellow, Green, that would be seen as too political, same with black or white, so we're stuck, don't you dare suggest rainbow

Quite remarkable how you've managed to convey just how thick you are in only a few sentences. Well done you!

[CreamofSumYungGai]

Bit of the gilso about it, if you ask me. Don't bite.

[Lucky7]

"Black, white, yellow...Chinese people make very good workers."

I’ve personally never seen a yellow person re Asian people

Or have I never seen a red person from North America

Apart from neither of those things actually being true it's a great point.
