Political correctness, hate speech ctd.
Here's a testimonial from the television show in question, "Undercover Mosque":
Can just I say how impressed I'd be if bobbies occasionally strolled down my street, perhaps once per week, said hello, and asked me what's going on?
I'm not against the police, not at all. We need them. I just think they need to readjust their priorities.
So what was the police's intervention about? Why did the police and the CPS feel entitled to act as television critics and, in effect, as potential censors of what we could watch? Clues to the motive, I think, lie in the slightly sinister phrase "community cohesion".Once again, let's get the police out of the business of television censorship and hate speech and community cohesion. Let's get them out on the streets, getting to know people, and policing. I spend a fair bit of time in front of my house; smoking cigars, working on the motorcycles, etc. In the 4 years I've lived at my current address, I don't recall ever seeing a regular policeman walk down my street. I've seen volunteer policepeople a handful of times. I see police vehicles drive past occasionally, but not often. One van full of volunteer policepeople, passing by, stopped to hassle me at length about pushing a motorcycle down to the garage without wearing a helmet.
