Re: Would never have happened in my day
Moreover, Tommy isn't interested in the race of the offenders.
Personally I find that totally unbelievable....
The issue is not who is breaking the law
I'm far from convinced by this part....
the fact that those who are supposed to be enforcing the law are not doing so because of the race and/or religion of the offenders
This, however, seems fairly indisputable now.
There were five or six police officers waiting to take Tommy away from the court. That seems excessive - one would have been enough
Quite likely the others were there for his protection. Wouldn't look good if a terrorist offed him on the six o'clock news, while in police custody.
There were people making policy decisions based on race. It just wasn't Tommy.
That anyone makes decisions on race in this day and age is totally unacceptable. How can you write the first sentence, then follow it up with the second??? Its precisely this kind of mental gymnastics that has landed labour under investigation for institutional racism.
