    No, neither can I. But I think there is a place for those who can't help but notice, to comment that there seems to be a common factor in most of the knife crime wave, without being branded as racist and, what is more important, without being racist.

      Do you want to find out how racist you really are?

      Have a play with this from the University of Chicago, URL from "ingear" Sunday Times Suplement.

          So you're quicker off the mark shooting a black guy. What does that tell you?

              I'm also quicker to realise that a black guy is unarmed compared to a white guy.

              P.S. I would have liked to have seen the stats on how many unarmed black guys I shot compared to unarmed white.

                  So, you treat black guys differently to white guys.

                  Is that not racism?

                  Platypus, I'm not picking on you, merely making a point. At least you were brave enough to have a go and even braver to publish your stats. They do make for uncomfortable reading as the original article in the Sunday Times pointed out.

                    Bolluxs More than 110,000 "problem families" with disruptive youngsters will be targeted as part of a crackdown on knife crime, Gordon Brown has said.

                    They will get parenting supervision, with the worst 20,000 families facing eviction if they do not respond.
