Racist Police?

A report released today by the Commons Home Affairs Committee declared that there still exists in the British Police Force (I won't use 'service') racism.

The chairman of the committee - MP (disgraced of course - aren't they all?) Keith Vaz - commented on the 'blatantly disproportionate representation of particularly black people in the criminal justice system regarding numbers held on the DNA database'. (I paraphrase).

I'm sorry for pointing out the bleeding obvious but isn't there such a blatantly disproportionate representation of particularly black people in the criminal justice system regarding numbers held on the DNA database because particularly black people are disproportionately criminal?

This is a fact. For whatever reasons. But this is a fact. Proportionately black people commit more (many more) crimes than white people so there are going to be proportionately more of them on the criminal DNA database.

It's not racist to point this out.

What does Vaz want the police to do - let black people off crimes so as to balance things?

Probably.

Incy Wincy Black and White Children

My four year old daughter has a book called 'Incy Wincy Spider and Other Action Rhymes', it's written and illustrated by Patrice Aggs.

It's a modern book (2005) and published in London.

It has illustrations for every rhyme in the book, and this is where my problem lies.

Like the sad person that I am I counted the people in the illustrations. There are 184 of them (people). You can guess can't you - 92 white and 92 black.

Shocking.

Truly shocking the way that our children are being brainwashed into this multicult nonsense.

Apparently there are about 10% of people in this country who are non white.

So, if the book was to portray reality then it should have had about 18 black people in the illustrations and 164 white.

But it had 92 of each.

It is terrible brainwashing that is evident everywhere nowadays but is particularly bad in children's books and TV.

And of course if anyone dare to speak out against it then they are shouted down as a RACIST.
