I personally think this is a case of negligence rather than anything more systemic.Where?
Again I ask you to point to one single thing that the police did in the Novak situation that points towards race being a factor. You can't because there isn't one, and that's why you and Nige and Tommy 2 names band of thugs are wrong.
However, that shouldn’t be ruled out just yet and in fact pursuing that line of enquiry to conclusion is beneficial to stop it being picked at by those seeking to profit from this case.
Amongst the missed opportunities to disrupt the Manchester bomber a security guard said he didn’t want to stop the bomber for fear of being labelled racist. Obviously this person wasn’t a policeman but it is at least some evidence of white people being fearful to tackle non white people for fear of retaliatory accusations
Manchester Arena Inquiry: Security 'did not approach bomber over racism fears'
A security guard says he "had a bad feeling" about Salman Abedi, Manchester inquiry hears.
In this case the brothers concocted a racism accusation between themselves. It’s probably wrong to try and get behind the reasoning of 2 people who are awful human beings but it is plausible to think they did so as they felt it might be believed.
As I say though, I think the real issues in this case aside from the callous murder is the crap response from the officers on scene as opposed to issues of race, but some people don’t even appear to accept the police did anything wrong.
For things to get better in the world we need to keep talking about this and not shout at each other though. I’ve been tempted today to do that on here and it doesn’t help
