If It Looks Like An Elephant And It Feels Like An Elephant


(INSERT LABEL HERE) And smells like an elephant then the chances are it is an elephant and the same premise should be used by police when they are investigating a crime. If a neighborhood is predominately "non-white" then common sense says that more non-whites will be stopped and questioned than whites. If the victim of a crime describes the perp as black then common sense says police will put more effort into looking for the perp among the black community. If witnesses of an attack at an after hours club describes the perps at black then it is obvious that at 3-4 AM police will stop more vehicles driven by blacks. If I was non-whites and felt I had been wrongly stopped and questioned I wouldn't be blaming the police I would look at my community for redress.

How often do police officers not take action because they don't need the hassle of left wing social in-activists and media outlets like The Star?

Police must act on stigma of racial profiling
