White supremacists protecting Churchill statue get 'that work' in UK

I wrote this reply before you added the rest of your text, I'll catch up perhaps later:

Nothing conclusive there at all, just lots of "some have argued that" and even the grimmest tale from the statistics cited estimates a 10% error in whites thinking blacks are "worse" than whites across the board. That is in fact faaaar smaller than the truly salient statistic, from that article, which is: 


Police officers don't just arrest "on a (racist) whim" - they need probable cause. So, er, your claim TGN? My stance has not been altered. 

The BBC made a similar claim to that which you're making: that the criminal justice system here is "racist and unfair" because blacks are disproportionately represented. Not a WORD of consideration that there might be cultural reasons, culture which is "black," that is, which explain why blacks might, in fact, commit more crime than whites. THAT WOULD BE TOO CONTROVERSIAL! Listen to much hip hop/grime/drill music TGN? Lyrics? That's another example. Those (overwhelmingly black) rappers positively REVEL in their claimed criminality! It's virtually all they talk about. Glorification much - and if not that then at the very least "reporting" on an extant cultural artefact of 2020 "black culture" - pride in crime. Perverse, yes, but true.

Yes there're some stenchy backward veins and pockets of racism around today, and crappy policing and police brutality is an ongoing problem, but, here at least in the UK, and I live in a very diverse area I can tell you, we REALLY aren't racist - we fucking despise racism in fact. That's the reality. I will also add that my friends who've got really into this BLM movement over recent weeks are the ones who do NOT live in diverse areas or have diverse acquaintances. Basically, the lady doth protest too much methinks, quite literally - racism is frequently born of ignorance and not socialising with the "others" IMO, so there's that.

Nice to read someone who actually grasps what these statistics mean.
