First we have to accept the unpalatable truth that knife and gun crime are predominantly black on black crimes. Black youths are over-represented in the figures... and yet stop and search is looked upon as an infringement of their rights. Kids are groomed by gangs while their in primary school... I don't know what the answer is but I do think more black police officers would go a long way in building bridges between the constabulary and the black community.
