King Pitcos 741 Report post Posted August 7, 2011 You've asked two different questions now. Yeah, you didn't answer the first one. Â In terms of stop/search criteria I suggest you look it up yourself - I'm sure it'll be available online. Can't find it, you'll have to give me a link. Or, y'know, your opinion on what criteria they should be using to stop and search people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Pitcos 741 Report post Posted August 7, 2011 (edited) Cheers johnnyboy. So patrol cars are just stopping the people behaving suspiciously or acting on gathered intelligence rather than blanket racial stereotyping, then.

So patrol cars are just stopping the people behaving suspiciously or acting on gathered intelligence rather than racial profiling, then. Â Â That's what they're meant to do. But the legislation is hardly going to say "stop all niggers". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The King Of Swing 321 Report post Posted August 7, 2011 Christ I'm amongst the first people to call the police ot for acting out of line but even I can't deny that this was a by all accounts peacfull protest that was hijacked by a bunch of thugs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deaq 0 Report post Posted August 7, 2011 They are reporting on the news that they have no idea if people have been killed in some of the fires in the flats. Â Just looks like a bunch of scum pissed off that the Police tried to police someone in the area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So patrol cars are just stopping the people behaving suspiciously or acting on gathered intelligence rather than blanket racial stereotyping, then. Â "You fit a description" is a bit of a cop out for a stop and search (pun not genuinely intended). However, and you may have been alluding to it earlier, the prison population is also disproportionate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WildSybianRider 0 Report post Posted August 7, 2011 That's not what I said. More that stop and searches have a staggeringly low rate of conviction and - allied with the statistics Whiskey already posted that a disproportionate number of searches are of minorities - I don't think it's a stretch to say they can easily be seen as antagonistic towards (particularly socioethnic) communities. Efforts to reduce recorded data about stop and search powers certainly don't help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

big mickey 0 Report post Posted August 7, 2011 To be fair to the stop & searches though, a lot of the major troubles in the areas do seem to be revolved around a gang culture in young black males. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The King Of Swing 321 Report post Posted August 7, 2011 Problem is when the Police use their powers they are being heavy handed but when they hold back you then have people complaining that they are too soft, Justice Secretary Ken Clarke is an utter cock but he probably has one of the worst positions in the Government.
