I have been rewarded with motivational speaking and £1 pizzas for going to my friend's place.
Yay! Jam it back in, in the dark.  |

I'm mainly irritated at the fact that the metropolitan police are only too happy to portray themselves as middle-class whities who'll forcibly stop and search a black youth on the street and arrest him for holding a knife he might not have any actual connection to beyond having received it in a wrong-place-wrong-time situation.
Seriously, how is broadcasting the fact that the police will stop you based on the colour of your skin supposed to be a good message? There's nowhere I can't reach. |

Yeah, it does make sense to go after statistically likely suspects; it just seems a little obtuse and insensitive to proudly broadcast that fact in a PSA aimed at curbing these kids' antisocial tendencies. I'd certainly be pissed at being profiled if I was a south London black kid!
Also - a knife is a general-purpose tool. A gun is a general-purpose killing instrument. A lorry heaped with fertiliser, bleach and car batteries sends off all the obvious warning signals in the book. Don't put up a strawman, lest it turn out to be made of bricks and collapse upon you. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
