When i first travelled to London to go to uni in the early 80s from Belfast, i was immediately profiled as soon as you got off the plane you didn"t go directly to baggage reclaim you were redirected to another part of the airport where you had to walk along an enclosed corridor no windows just white walls that had armed police and MI5 both sides you were then questioned and asked for ID and had to provide an address you were heading to before you could get your luggage, now tio be honest it did pisss me off but i accepted it because of the troubles , it certainly didn"t occur to me to go out and protest or riot or to consider all English people as being  racists.

they've made a huge thing about the racial profiling thing in the Floyd case.

X times more blacks stopped by police compared to whites, etc. Put that into the BLM calculator Crazy and you get - systemic racism.

Nobody ever mentions

Police go where the crime is, its called being efficient.
There are some cities and neighbourhoods within cities that see way more crime than other places (gun violence, murder, gangs, etc)
Of course most police will patrol those areas, make more arrests there, and get involved in incidents there.
But guess what, X times more blacks are committing these crimes, than whites.
So guess who ends up being stopped more, searched more, arrested more, or involved in incidents more often ?
