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.

I cannot recall other than the one death at finsbury park mosque a murder by right wing extremists , by contrast the multiple deaths at London bridge,7/7, Westminster and Manchester to name just a few, all carried out by Muslims.
The other graph proves my point, more stabbing by blacks than whites even though the white population is probably 10 times greater. So your so called facts are self defeating and more than prove my point.

Firstly, what you can and cant recall doesn't factor into any stats.

Secondly, learn to read graphs.

I thought that it was particularly funny as you'd urged 'RedCard' to "..learn to read graphs..".

May I suggest that you learn to examine your 'source material' more closely?

Here's the graph in it's original article:

The second feature down - 'Far right extremists have hatched far more terror plots than anyone else in recent years'.

One of my sons friends, a young man, was black and drove a very nice car, all legal. He was stopped on a regular basis for a “produce” as they called it.

My son who is white, often used my car, a sporty fast two door job, all legal. He too got stopped by the police on a regular basis for a “produce”. His mate used to go on about being stopped because he was black. Until my son started to get the same treatment.

Wasn’t a case of black or white, just some young kid driving a fast, flash car late at night that attracted the attention of old bill. Young, flash car = stolen. My son just kept copies of insurance and licence etc with him to save time.
