Woke cops in Britain

I didn’t realize that. Sikh’s are anything but foul. Rather surprising.

Maybe take a moment off from slagging off the Pakis with your British chums and go look up what happened to Indira Gandhi (a rather foul Hindu, incidentally, if you listen to Salman Rushdie).

So, when you made an assumption about who the killer was, it was perfectly natural, but when the police made a completely different but equally wrong assumption, it was because they were hopelessly woke?

Cop: Has anybody been hurt?
Victim: I can't breathe. I've been stabbed.
Cop: I don't think you have, mate. <Slaps handcuffs on>

No two ways about it - it's fucking horrendous.

That being said, I have some English friends who are ex-cops. 'Woke' is not generally a word that springs to mind.

I don't actually think these cops were "woke". This is a random awful mistake that happens to involve skin colors that make narratives. Which can be said for most of the opposite-direction narratives, like Floyd.

Yes, I agree. Of course, Nigel Farage is all over it like white on a Klan member just as people jumped all over Floyd's situation

Not to mention the Air India bombing in the 1980s.

Usually though the Sikh underworld in this country is more akin the Sicilian mafia in the US, they’re too busy fighting one another than bother the general population. Sometimes though collateral damage arising from turf wars on the streets does occur.

What is the most common name given to boys in London

Speaking as a northerner, we generally referred to them as ‘Wanker’

That's an interesting example of the use of statistics to sell a narrative. You'll notice there are no other Muslim names on the list, which implies that a high proportion of Muslim males are named Muhammad.

Incidentally, Mohammed is one of the two most common names amongst our engineers here at work, despite the fact that only 2 out of roughly 40 people are Muslim.
