stop and search

method used by the metropolitan police, among others, to intimidate and alienate most black people in their communities. People are stopped at random and have their clothing searched, in public, in the most humiliating way possible, usually accompanied by a large amount of sarcasm and unecessary physical force.

Is based on the incorrect assumption that most black people in inner city london are criminals.

The police stop 8 times more black people than they do whites.

Only a tiny number of searches result in the detection of any criminal behaviour or intent.

is another form of police brutality and more proof of the disgraceful state of aso-called public service in this country.
"look sarge, there's a nigger, and what's worse he's got a white woman on his arm.

"ok son you know what to do. Stop and search him, and be sure to plant some drugs in his pocket while you're at it"

wank holiday

DWB

Driving While Black.

The metropolitan police and other UK police forces will often try to arrest any black motorists, especially those driving expensive cars, for no good reason other than the colour of the driver's skin.

A motorist in Birmingam (England, not Alabama, but the attitudes are the same) was stopped for DWB ***35*** times in a year, and not once did he have as much as a faulty brake light. He did not break any speed limits and his car was in perfect order.

This is yet another example of the police being institutionally racist but nothing is ever done about it.
'Look sarge there's a nigger driving a sports car, I bet he stole it, thieving bastards the lot of them. And the bastard has got a white women in the passenger seat it ain't right is it'

'You know what to do son, pull him over for 'driving erratically' and plant some drugs in the glove compartment'

institutionally racist

what an official government report stated the metropolitan police is , in other words that racism is endemic, in all ranks and areas of the organisation, and the the so called decent officers (sic) are unwilling to speak out, therefore making them just as guilty.
some people don't like it, and will threaten you when you say it, but that the met is a disgrace is way beyond doubt.
