A quick survey! +rep

Hi!

I'd be thankful if you could all quickly take this survey I have created: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/2PMDMY3

It is for my Citizenship GCSE and is on the subject of 'Is the police stop and search method used in a justified manner?'

+rep for you all who do it!!

Thanks a lot :)

Moved by Dilusionate (Trialist Forum Moderator): From "Discuss Anything" as I feel it is better suited here.

Ahaa thanks ;3

It's for the Citizenship GCSE.
We all had to pick a topic which we feel strongly about and independently research it, talk to people who have an influence/importance on it and get the word out etc

It's quite fun and interesting :)

Done :)

Done, rather interesting lol :P

Briefly goes over it at the top of the survey ;)

It's when you randomly get searched like, at the side of the street ye? Or your car is pulled over and searched. Like they have reasons to believe you're carrying something like drugs/weapons so they search you

Done :)

If you don't mind me asking, what's your opinion?

Hm. Well as I've had to do a lot of research on the topic you could say that this research has affected my view largly.

But IMO; the police in a sense are racist as the number of black people search compared to white should never be that high - it's almost doubled! But I guess the fact that it has been statistically shown to have a higher crime rate in areas with more ethnic minorities, the number of stop&search will be higher in this area, making the number of black people searched rise.
If you see what I mean.
But I still think rules regarding the stop and search should be revised to see a change in these numbers.

Dunno if im too late or not but I completed it :3

I took it :)

I don't know anything about the English ones so answered as if it was the Irish police force :S Hope it helps!

That's interesting :)

I don't think (as with everything) it's 100% one way or the other. Yeah statistics show a black man will commit more crimes on average than a white man, but that's not true for everybody and the police certainly shouldn't discriminate on a daily basis.

Another thing is that if it keeps society safer, I'm for it. Maybe. Haha I don't really know :P

Done :)

done it =]

Done :) Left my name. Are you doing the UPS course at GCSE/A-Level?

Done it. Left my name as well.

Stop and search is a huge source of malcontent, especially in young black male communities, and so may actually provoke them into committing crime anyway as they feel as if they are being treated as criminals already, even without breaking the law. Just a thought.


Done it for you Cerys!

done :)

Good survey, good luck on this GCSE and all of your others!!!

I was looking at the broader picture. If stop and searches weren't carried out at all then we'd all be screwed. Just a thought :P
