The Behavior of UK Police officers.

...snip...


Killings happen everywhere but Brits here have a bizarre fascination when US police officers do it.

Ah right this explains it - this is your "payback" for someone having the cheek to start a thread about the behaviour of USA police forces - see: http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=323251

Wouldn't it therefore have been better to start a thread about similar questionable behaviour by British police (to that of USA police), all this thread has done is illustrate your profound ignorance of the UK.
 
If he ever did visit anywhere outside Spokane, maybe he could write a book about it and give it a snappy title like Gullible’s Travels.

It really is lesson one, day one, around here: know what you're talking about before you open your mouth.

That's not quite my motivation but whatever. I've thought the UK police officers were cowards for many years but didn't think it was a problem since--as I already stated--a human rightsy approach to police work can work in a lily white country. Now that the UK has imported the third world at a reckless and dangerous level, the cowardice and incompetence of the police is a serious problem. As I've shown in this thread British citizens have no confidence in the police force. They don't want their police punting its power away just so they can come across as virtuous.

All that thread has done is illustrate others' profound ignorance of the US.

Uh-huh. People with better knowledge of the topic than people who actually live in the areas you referred to.

I believe Winsor over the people here and I've given my reasons why.


And one short blurry video which may or may not depict what you say it depicts. Sorry, as evidence that's rather pathetic.
This footage clearly depicts a group of officers running away from confrontation

You do realise that "pikey" is also a racist term?

I guess people who are spoon fed on the mainstream media might recognise it as a racist term; I do not but more than that, I don't care. Pikeys are an absolute blight on the land. If you wish to defend them then maybe start a thread about the benefits they bring (there are so few single posts threads it would be a novelty). I guess it's a bit of a conundrum for leftists. I mean, pikeys are white native Britons so ostensibly they're fair game for any disparagement that comes their way. But they are also, according to some, a minority group, and that naturally limits any criticism levelled at them. We're on solid ground criticising 'chavs' or 'white trash' or 'gammon', as they're not a protected species, but when it gets to travellers it's a tricky one, and one probably best tackled by steering clear of the topic unless it's to post the odd, "Ooh, racist!"

And I do take note that whilst you took time to criticise me for alleged racism the clear racism in the post I originally responded to

"Wouldn't that be awesome if... human rights to be removed from gammon"

and the clear call to murder people of differing political views

"Wouldn't that be awesome if... Police brutality and shootings to be visited upon white racist idiots"

somehow escaped your attention.

So sure, you go ahead and point out racism and intolerance where you see fit, but at least attempt to do it honestly.

"I don't know what you mean by 'glory,' " Alice said.
Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. "Of course you don't—till I tell you. I meant 'there's a nice knock-down argument for you!' "
"But 'glory' doesn't mean 'a nice knock-down argument'," Alice objected.
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master—that's all."​
 
Many police will only act brave if they heavily out number the suspect

https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/sheku-bayohs-family-meet-lord-13333791

"Dad-of-two Sheku, 31, died after being restrained by up to nine uniformed officers in a street near his home in Kirkcaldy in May 2015."

None of the officers involved are to face prosecution, despite Sheku receiving multiple injuries and being suffocated to death.

The way deaths following contact with the police are (not) investigated is a scandal; in fact I was at a Skeptics in the Pub talk about it only last month. I don’t know what your comment about bravery is based on in this instance since I don’t see anything about the details of the incident in that report.
 
...... As I've shown in this thread British citizens have no confidence in the police force........

:dl:

Erm..........you've not shown anything, let alone anything to do with this silly claim.
 
I believe Winsor over the people here and I've given my reasons why.

Who?



This footage clearly depicts a group of officers running away from confrontation the camera, and towards something more important.

FTFY

How about you help us out, as we obviously have no idea about the context of your clips. Did those men end up being arrested?

Yes they are. Because your government is too scared to compile data on race and crime doesn't change the facts.

https://www.ons.gov.uk/aboutus/tran...omofinformationfoi/crimescommittedbyethnicity

Just keep your head buried in the sand. Pathetic.

No, the fact that offender data of the type you think is so important is not collected because it would be very unreliable. In many cases the victim/s or witnesses may not even see the criminal, or else they might make an incorrect classification or false identification. Ethnicity data is collected for victims.

Killings happen everywhere but Brits here have a bizarre fascination when US police officers do it.

That's because our police hardly ever do it, and few other industrialised countries' police do it on the scale of the United States

And Australia...

And I showed that people's disatisfaction with the police in teh last few years is the result of something completely different to that which you keep claiming.
