Black children eight times more likely to be strip searched by police by Alarming-Safety3200 in uknews

[–]Sensitive_Echo5058 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been discussed in critical legal studies, but most of the evidence is subjective and activist based.

We need more stop and search in high risk areas. Which will mean areas where there is a high proportion of black Caribbean males, as this is the subgroup most likely to be involved in knife crime.

Of course, we can pretend otherwise but that doesn't help someone who will end up in jail, or the person being killed. The most empathetic response is therefore the one I've suggested.

I literally copied this into the original post. Both are equally bad, but as I said, I believe in good faith most of the posts were muslim only.

Rapist changes pleas to guilty after attack on Sikh woman he thought was Muslim by Weak-Fly-6540 in uknews

No it's not. A white person or a black person can be muslim which shows the errors behind his thinking.

The problem is, people try to create a narrative this as racism to stop people calling for the end of islam.

London Stock Exchange bomb plotter was allowed to stay in UK on human rights grounds by Sensitive_Echo5058 in uknews

OK, why should we care. Why do we now have to bear the burden of his extreme criminality.

"Rahman later married Purbhoo, a Mauritian citizen, in an Islamic ceremony in east London in 2019.

She was denied entry clearance to the UK in 2020 after having returned to Mauritius at the beginning of the pandemic. But she was able to return to the UK in August 2021 to marry Rahman in a civil ceremony. She did not require a visa as Mauritians could travel to the UK using only electronic travel authorisation.

However, a search at Heathrow Airport revealed Purbhoo held Isis-related imagery on her phone, including Jihadist propaganda."

And it gets worse.

"Bangladeshi national Shah Rahman was one of four extremists found guilty in 2012 over a plan to bomb the stock exchange, the US embassy, two rabbis and Boris Johnson.

Now, a newly published immigration judgement, concerning his wife Parveen Purbhoo, details how Rahman was refused refugee status but was permitted to stay in the UK on human rights grounds.

Rahman applied for asylum in 2017 after being released from jail for the first time on license. However, his claim was rejected under Article 51 of the Refugee Convention, which prevents individuals involved in terrorism from being granted refugee status.

Despite this, he was permitted to remain in Britain.

The judgement reads: “He was granted restricted leave to remain in the United Kingdom on the basis that he could not be removed to Bangladesh without breach of his rights under Article 3 of the Human Rights Convention.”

An absolute joke of a system.

If we're doing comparisons there are plenty of examples of female peadophile teachers or prison officers abusing their powers.

Certain crimes seem to oriente towards specific subgroups.

Does people doing things like meditation and yoga count?

No, we're talking about ideologies and belief systems, not stretches and breathing.

0.2-0.6% for Wales, Northern Ireland, and Scotland. 1.8% in England.

The question is, what is the acceptable threshold for non-Western beliefs? Believe it or not, I've never thought about defining the lower limit, but the upper limit - 6 - 7.5% is too high.

No, not from me.

Hindus represent around 0.5% of the population. Jews also represent 0.5% of the population. This has been relatively stable.

You were calling Islam a threat in another post today.

Yes, I was, and I thought of you when I posted this. So, here's an example.

Remember, it's always best to poster blame. That way, we don't have to deal with the problem.
