""Well I've seen some appalling behaviour from people with a noteworthy similarity to your forbears - they were all Irish. You don't like it when someone points out that assumptions could be made about you, but you're all for assumptions when made by the police.""

I'm at a complete loss as to how anybody with your education and qualifications can turn out to be such an egregious FOOL!


""Primitive Tribesman - it was DON who said that the police treated people alike because they looked alike.""

NO!! I DID NOT!

I said (repeatedly) that police officers who wish to go on living treat people as a potential threat because they are:-

1). PEOPLE!
2). A POTENTIAL THREAT!

This has absolutely nothing to do with what they look like, how they sound or what kind of shirt they wear.

It is purely because every front line officer has at some time been under threat from somebody who looked like a HARMLESS HUMAN BEING, AND WASN'T!

Do you understand NOW, or do I need to use even shorter words?
