BLM activist in critical condition by being shot in head in Peckham.

Apparently being black in Britain is dangerous what with all the White Supremacist’s killing them.

British Black represent only 3% of the population but 33% of the murder victims. I’m really surprised that these White Supremacist’s are allowed to do this in the UK.
Oh surprisingly it was not violent white Supremacists who shot the leader of BLM in England.

It was someone else.

England and Wales have a very low murder count compared to the US. They list murders per million rather than murders per 100,000 as we do. 696 murders last year in the whole country.

To put that in perspective that’s one more than Chicago’s 695 for 2022.

Police voluntarily turning in their guns after a police officer with a gun shot and killed a man they were pursuing and was later charged with murder.

Not sure why he fired his gun. Nothing was said that he thought his life was in danger. People are claiming racism. Could have been a ND.

Apparently English police fired their guns just 4 times last year. Only one in ten Carrie’s a gun. There is a concern that terrorists could take advantage of this unarmed situation.

Kaba's shooting came amid intense scrutiny of the Metropolitan Police. In 2021, an officer pleaded guilty to kidnapping, raping, kidnapping and killing Sarah Everard, a 33-year-old woman who disappeared while walking home from visiting a friend. Another officer, who worked in the same parliamentary and diplomatic protection unit, pleaded guilty in January to committing dozens of rapes between 2003 and 2020.
