...and they were told NOT to attend by the organiser. If the Police don't clamp down on people breaking the law, then we are in a lawless state. I know where I would rather be. How many people have been unable to attend funeral this year, but they have behaved.

Another shameful episode from the met, to add to the long list.
Without a doubt an entirely different police force, but look at the difference in policing between this and all of the rangers fans that turned out to celebrate their victory. Could it be that the police knew all too well that they could intimidate a bunch of women? From everything I have seen the vigil was conducted appropriately, all the images I have seen show the women wearing their masks. The police, of course laying hands on these women to detain them will certainly help the war against covid. If the aim here is to prevent coronavirus then the met have done the polar opposite by making physical contact with people for no serious reason. Yes, the law is the law, but is the law just? Your right to protest has been removed from you. We have vaccinated just about all of those at risk. Enough is enough as far as I'm concerned. |

perhaps the investigating police should have also stayed home, that would have given the women something else to moan about.
I bet the met are well cheesed off and no wonder. Why on earth people think it as acceptable for a mass gathering is beyond me, the event had been called off. Seems people are happy to condone a mass gathering and condone those that try to enforce the rules. law breakers 1 law enforces 0 No wonder we have so much trouble on our streets when the police get slaughtered for doing their job. How to break the rules and come up smelling of Roses. Violence against women, rape, murder and domestic violence is abhorrent. We know what men are like so how do we avoid these incidents? Dare I suggest women don't get drunk or go home with a bloke they just met or go for a walk with a bloke to certain areas? Dare I suggest pubs take more responsibility for people getting drunk on their premises.... tried that, got taken to task for it Dare I suggest DNA is taken at "birth", omg civil liberties will go mad. This only helps identify the offender and does not stop crime Dare I say all men and women have to submit to a drugs search before going into any pub Dare I say every man and woman mas provide recordable and checkable identification on entry to a pub So what are the suggestions to keep women save? I have no idea how you can keep a woman's freedom to go where she wants with keeping them safe. Another 20,000 police officers will be enough macafee2 |

This comes back to the old "If a bloke walks down a dark alley wearing loads of gold and gets mugged, then it's his fault". The thing is, it isn't the victims fault. It's the fault of the attacker/rapist/mugger. They are the person that committed the crime. With that said, the world is undoubtedly a nasty place and people need to use their loaf. In this case it seems that Sarah Everard was doing everything that was advised to her (not listening to headphones whilst walking, called someone shortly before the attack to let them know where she was). That's one of the reasons why people are so upset. The answer can't be to tell women not to go out at night, what about all of the nurses sticking needles into arms as we speak and working 48hr days? Nor is the answer, the ridiculous statement that I've heard in the media for the last few years, that we should "teach men not to rape". You don't teach a rapist anything, you lock them away for as long as their miserable lives will allow. I don't see the woke brigade reducing levels of rape to any serious extent, rapists are rapists and should be behind bars. The answer has to be better policing in my view. |
