After these findings that there are a lot of stop and searches in areas of black crime there will be articles and complaints by David Lammy and Diane Abbott over the crime, drugs and murders in their communities it is difficult to prosper in.

I’m afraid without lots of stop and search and long term community programs steering kids away from jail life or short life expectancy lifestyle the trends will continue and probably get worse.

It’s funny when you hear some lefties including our recent flouncer blame cuts to police budgets and number of officers, yet doing anything about it isn’t right either. Instead they no doubt want a crime and murder report without arrest. And Sadiq Khan wants cuts to police funding and police officers. Shaun Bailey thankfully keeps some of his conservative values, even though his views on London landmarks is quite concerning.

The police should be there to uphold the law. Not to wonder if stopping people is racist or not. Expect the streets to become increasingly unsafe due to current policies. Eventually places in British cities will be like townships in South Africa.

Red and Blue Army!

Just setup them up outside McDonalds.

Actually a good point and there are portable metal detectors so the idea has merit.

One more point

The primary reason why the incredibly successful Glasgow model of dealing with knife crime is not used in London is that it requires stop and search of kids who are identified as being both potential victims and perpetrators. The definition of profiling. Work out who is likely to be involved and preempt the violence.

And it works. Poor white kids in Glasgow from deprived backgrounds now tend to live a lot longer than before. Where as their black equivalents in London do not.

An actual case of pure racism meaning that white people get special treatment that saves lives but is denied to black people. Black Lives clearly do not matter as much as those of whites in this very clear and measurable way.

Such is the way in this f***ed up world of ours.

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." - 1984 - George Orwell.

When I lived in east London one of these knife arches used to be set up at the station every few months and every time I was steered around it by the coppers running it. Each time I said I’d rather go through it as it was less embarrassing but they wouldn’t let me.

I used to wear a suit of armour so maybe they thought their machine would get over loaded.
