Wow. That shit is powerful. Fact of the matter is, I see yellow boards up all the time round my way with knifing, shooting etc etc. Kind of get numb to it after a while hearing about it all the time.

The POLICE have the authority now to stop and search anyone they please in accordance to the anti-terrorism laws.
This new power really could be used to the Police's advantage as it allows them to stop people who they think might be carrying offensive weapons.
BUT rather than doing something productive like that they spend their time in train stations "randomly" selecting people OUTWITH the 'statistics' for carrying guns or being terrorists.
The best way to crack down on people carrying weapons is to have more stops and searches of people WITHIN the statistics for carrying weapons (not business people, old grannies, commuters!!!) and whack the c*nts with stupidly long sentences.

Who do you reckon? 4Creative or someone external?

Looked like a Sigur Ros video.
You guys have like 700 homicides a year through out the entire country right? We have close to if not more than 400 a yr. in Philadelphia alone. Some days I just outright want to move.

I live how you get to see a flash of the top of the girls thong when she runs over to check her dead boyfriend who got blown away in the pool hall.

"I agree, but because of this you start to get into a world of (moslty racial) profiling."
Comment from Bleip in my prev post.SO? ..........
If statistics show that it's lower class white kids who wear hoodies that mostly carry knifes or if it is young influential muslims who attempt to carry out terrorist attacks then those are the statistics that the police should be stopping and searching and people outwith the statistics - complete waste of time, money and resources.
- but soon your racial profiling tart to fuel the statistics rather then reacting to it.pr2

*and NOT people outwith the statistics

When did outwith become a word?
The fact is the entire western world is slowly slipping into hell thanks to American influence and values.

Outwith 2.0

Couldn't they just use that video as a checklist for people to search - covers most of the profiles you'd expect to carry guns...
- skt0
So, you don't think better policing would involve trying to engage with the social groups prone to gun and knife crime, rather than further alienating them with stop and searches targeting them by their age and skin colour?
Finding the occasional weapon at a train station does nothing to address the underlying problems of social exclusion and poverty.

outwith is outwith the dictionary

A lot of it's about puffing out your chest and showing what a big man you are - how do you 'engage' with someone like that? The rest of the people have guns to protect from the likes of those.
