I am confused? so because you are a cop, we should just ignore all the stop and frisk searches that took place without a warrant or discriminated against black, brown, and other minority communities?
I mean did you even read what I just said, like I don't get it. I AM TELLING YOU THERE ARE RACIST POLICE OFFICERS IN THE MET, THIS IS A FACT AND THEY WILL CONTRIBUTE TO THE DISPORTIONATE FIGURES. My point, and it's the same fecking point I try and drill home all the time when people want an explanation for the disproportionate statistics and that is that outside influences and racism outside of the police contribute to it too and need be tackled just as the ones inside the police but people never ever want to address them, it's always the same "They're all racist, they protect each other", this is speculation, as officers are routinely fired due to reports made by other officers, this one being a very high profile one which involved racism .

Two women police officers have been fired after a conversation in which one of them compared black people to gorillas and monkeys.
The racist chat involving Special Constable Rosanna Garofalo and WPC Joanna Sugda was taped when a colleague left an iPhone on record in her locker at work.
We get told about officer dismissals and it is almost always done because an officer reported on another officer, some may slip through the crack but the idea that everyone is ignoring everything is just bullshit to be quite frank.
I've told people time and time again what the Met are trying to do to combat this. Make recordings of all stop and search/use of force incidents mandatory, educating officers, being transparent with the public with their figures, holding officers to account for their behaviour, replacing the old retired officers with new graduate officers, black officers, Asian officers, eastern European officers. But like everywhere else in society you're still going to get the racists creping around, nobody applies to the met and discloses 'I am racist'.
