"Seeing increases noticing"

Every time a black person commits a crime we should just arrest a random White man and make him do the time.

They called that the Cherry Beach Express in Toronto back in the mid-80s, when they still kept racial info and the usual suspects were complaining there were "too many blacks" in the Don Jail.

Basically, they'd look for some street punk in his Doc Martins, especially if he looked a bit drunk or stoned, and take him to Cherry Beach to beat the crap out of him until he was ready to confess to whatever petty crime some black asshole from Regent Park or Jane and Finch had committed. They don't talk about that aspect much any more.

It stopped for two reasons: Publicity (see link), and the fact that they stopped keeping racial stats. Now they keep wanting to bring racial stats back, so they can bleat about too many blacks, yada yada yada.

The far left claims the cherry beach express was for “raping lesbians/minorities etc” :

Never underestimate their ability to twist stuff.

Oh, what a pile of BS. Of course they'd try to make it about themselves, and that shit about "walking back with no clothes" was what the injuns were accusing the Saskatoon cops of doing to them a few years back (and yes, it did happen at least once and a guy died.) Fucking narcissists.

(I was living in Toronto as a 17 year old working in pizza and coffee shops. I heard the stories from the very white and straight dudes who rode that pain train.)

That is something I could honestly see being proposed. Every white leftist who advocates for this needs to be forced to live in inner city areas

Reminds me of police body cams revealing inconvenient truths after these people were convinced they'd show off how cops are nothing but sadistic racist thugs.

It's like that old argument the "skeptics" use regarding UFOs: "if they're out there why aren't there thousands of videos of aliens randomly taken by people with their smart phones?"

Meanwhile those same "skeptics" don't like applying that same reasoning when it comes to there being thousands of videos of black violence randomly taken by people with their smart phones (or police body cameras).

Shocking how people seeing criminals more makes them notice they're usually black.

Meanwhile, they're perfectly fine with facial recognition in security cameras. At least so long as they totally ignore anyone who's not white.

This ofc is bad and you should not use security cameras. You don't want to be racist do you?

Home owners are the petite bourgeois anyway! They have more money, so they can take the loss and help people of color at the same time! -lefty midwit who then is shocked when the homeowners leave and their town becomes Detroit-lite

If only this magical "insurance" can pay off the national debt.

Literally saying you have no right to protect your house from a black.

Important to understand that this isn't a mistake or an accident, and liberalism has not 'failed.' They are pro-criminal BECAUSE THEY ARE CRIMINALS. The bad guys are in charge, and they are rewarding all their criminal buddies.

Buy guns and ammo.

If the policy is to let thieves walk out of the store with whatever they want anyway, might as well save the money and not pay for cameras and someone to watch them.

Is about your own home, ring in particular. So don't you dare try to monitor your own home, that is racist.

Oh yeah I was on my phone at the time and didn't look much. I'm not a huge believer in home cameras providing much value for security sake, but racism is a dumbass take.

If you are home, you get the time to see what's obviously a hoodlum and prepare your gun before they break in. And if you aren't you get some footage to possibly give cops a lead to catching them rather than literally nothing.

The problem is the people who need them rarely can afford them or do the diligence to actually follow through, while the people who do have them live so far away from crime its almost a joke.

It's not like cops respond to calls in shitty neighborhoods, so buying cameras is largely redundant. You need actual deterrence like iron window bars and reinforced steel doors, shit no HOA will tolerate because it'll lower your property value.

Shitty neighborhoods are often adjacent to meh to middle neighborhoods, who are the people who'd mainly need these types of things. No one in a ghetto is gonna splurge on shit like this, but a "we are doing okay" suburb where the cops themselves live will gain from it.

I like how they're mad that people WILLINGLY select to forward information to police instead of being forced to do it through a warrant. Most video obtained by police is actually through willing cooperation.

Is this why every time I walk by my home security system it screams "NIGGER!" at me?

Ok Wired you and every company that truly believes this get rid of all your security cameras. Or any other security measures.

Wait for the next gen AI cameras that will automatically turn off when they witness black people commit crimes, just like leftists do today.
