Compare the requirements for a Terry frisk in the US, identifying a specific suspect and suspicion of a crime, vs various UK PDs searching everyone in the street that crosses a certain block and boasting about it. Kharn Yeah, that doesn't happen. Hmm? The stop and search process A police officer or a police community support officer (PCSO) in uniform can stop you but only police officers can search you. A police officer does not have to be in uniform but they must show you their warrant (ID) card. They can search you, anything you are carrying and a vehicle. What you should be told The police officer or police community support officer must explain why you're being stopped and why you're being asked to account for your actions or presence in an area. In almost all cases, you should be offered a record of the stop and account or stop and search at the time it happens. The police use these powers to help make the local community safer by preventing and detecting crime. Naturally, public cooperation is an essential part of that. Where you can be searched Stop and search most often happens in public places. However, there are some powers, such as searching for firearms or drugs, which allow police to search people anywhere. If you're in a public place, you may be required to remove your coat or jacket and your gloves, unless you've been stopped in relation to terrorism or where the officer believes you are using clothes to hide your identity. ... The search is not voluntary. If you don’t cooperate the officer can use reasonable force to conduct the search. Section 60 Orders under section 60 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act allow officers to stop and search people with no grounds for suspicion. Police are only supposed to authorise the use of section 60 when there has been serious violence or where there is a risk it may occur in a particular area. Section 60 – ‘without suspicion searches’ Sometimes ordinary stop and search powers aren't enough to keep communities safe as people can only be stopped and searched if the officer has reasonable grounds. A Section 60 allows police officers to stop and search people even if they don't have suspicions about them. If a senior officer believes incidents of serious violence will take place in a specific area, or that people will be carrying weapons, and it is necessary to use these powers then they may put a Section 60 in place. It doesn't even take a judge to suspend a community's rights. Kharn |

But on the plus side the British police don't usually shoot your dog or do no knock warrants shoot you and your dog.

But yes our police are fucking useless and we have shit laws that they "can" use. I have leathermans and sogs all over the place. If I'm pulled up they won't search me. If they raid a house of a drug dealer and they find that yes they will take it.

Quoted: Pretty sure it is a Leatherman wave. I can't imagine trying to use one as a "deadly weapon". How the hell do tradespeople there get by without knives and other sharp objects?

View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Sorta looks like the Leatherman Wave I've stuffed into a kitchen drawer, if it is I agree withe the thumbs down gesture the mighty police woman is giving. Pretty sure it is a Leatherman wave. I can't imagine trying to use one as a "deadly weapon". How the hell do tradespeople there get by without knives and other sharp objects? They would probably call the SWAT team if they saw what I had in the back of my work truck. Have an axe and a machete in my offroad truck too. It is a perfect example of where "spirit of the law" was ruined by "letter of the law". A law was passed to essentially prohibit dagger type knives being possessed in public. At the time lots of stabbings were happening. When writing the legislation, they exempted "pocket knives with NON-LOCKING blades under 3" - basically your little swiss army type knife - as it was argued it was not likely to be used for stabbing. Multi tools were not around when the lesislation was drafted. And it was never written to cover tools - it was written to cover knives used in stabbing. However, in most multi tools the blade locks so it TECHNICALLY falls into the wrong category. There is an EXEMPTION for possession in public if you have GOOD REASON. On your way fishing or hunting. Carried as part of your work etc. HOWEVER, it is SUBJECTIVE - The cop decides whether your reason is good enough. And sends you to court for the magistrate to decide on your guilt or innocence. |

Has to be Ch Superintendent ( think Police Captain or higher maybe in USA ) who has to submit a report to the Commissioner or Ch Constable ( your Chief of Police ) Yes, I saw racism when I worked in London. Was worse ( more blatant ) in 1991 ( especially in the officers who joined in 1970's or 80s and still serving ) and has improved a lot since. Still not perfect. US police has a racism issue too. I could offer an opinion on whose police are more racist - you would not like it. |

Even that is a stretch on policing sources. For everyone else in the UK they have never, and will never be anywhere near such measures, let alone be affected by them. So because someone is in a minority-majority shitty neighborhood they have less rights than white people, and they're able to be searched whenever the sergeant on duty feels like rounding up some Arabs or Africans to fill the jail? I've seen several come up in my Facebook feed over the years of the PD bragging about the shitty weapons they recovered, and videos of them harassing people on the street while carrying out their searches while all the comments from the US roasted them. Yes, they typically did harass minorities. Kharn That's not what is says ether. You keep grasping at straws with your weak strawman though, yeah? Also, try not getting your news through Facebook. |

I just don't even know what to say. They are like 3 steps away from "we have to arrest you because you might commit a crime."

Congrats on the move then, happy it worked out for you Everyone has always told me the fiancé route was the best way to eventually get a GC. That, or having loads of cash to invest in a company. |

They could rival European superpowers like the UK and France in pretty much every aspect. Gun ownership would probably be made mandatory as well There actually is a bill waiting to be heard that is about seceding. I'm ready to make the move. TX is the only other state I would want to call home. My wife and I will cancel out 2 Californian imported votes, with 2 kids for the next generation as well. |
