Afriyie’s legal claim did not go into race discrimination but he said before the high court hearing that police in the incident “treated him like a wild animal” and that it would not have happened if he was white.
It's that police wouldn't have treated him like that if it weren't for the fact that so many of his fellows actually do act like wild animals when stopped by police...
...I mean, it's not like there's not enough real life actual rapes to worry about, is there?
Police are investigating the first case of rape in the metaverse after a child was 'attacked' in a virtual reality video game.
I guess if the cyber-rapists used Muslim avatars, they'll be in the clear?
The headset-wearing victim did not suffer any injuries as there was no physical attack.
No kidding...?
Police leaders are now calling for legislation to tackle a wave of sexual offending in such a sphere, saying officers' tactics must evolve to stop perverts using new technology to exploit children.
Get back to proper policing, of actual real crimes, you lazy bastards!
‘When did you decide this? Is this even a label – I’ve never heard of it. I support you, obviously, but this doesn’t sound real.’ Just some of the words that greeted me when I came out as abrosexual to a close friend, back in 2020. Needless to say, we’re not friends anymore.That must come as a welcome relief...to the close friend, that is.
A woman has been sentenced to four months in prison after a XL bully mauled a dog owner and killed another dog in two horrifying attacks just two weeks apart. Jade O'Brien also verbally abused the owner of the dog that died, telling him: 'It's not my f****** fault.'
...sadly, we can't put you down as well, and save the taxpayer even more money.
The court heard that O'Brien has eight previous convictions for battery, excess alcohol and criminal damage. She was also banned from keeping dogs for three years in March after she failed to get treatment for her puppy's wounds leaving it in agony - instead asking her gardener for help.
Can afford expensive-to-feed large dogs she can't control AND a gardener as well? Strange we aren't told what well-paying job she has, eh, Reader?
Jonathan Condor, defending, told the court that Narla wasn't her dog and its owner, O'Brien's ex partner, was currently on remand in prison for allegedly assaulting her. He said O'Brien had been the victim of domestic abuse and had also suffered a stroke in 2018 but she accepted she was responsible for the two attacks.
I guess Jonathan managed to convince her that telling the police and the judge to 'Fuck off, dickhead, it's not my fault!' wasn't a winning strategy...
District judge Thomas Mitchell said he had considered O'Brien's circumstances and that she had 'to some extent been imposed upon' by her ex and wasn't the 'best person' to look after dogs.
Jailing a sobbing O'Brien for four months, he said it was a serious case' that could only be dealt with by immediate custody. He also banned her from owing dogs for five years, handed her a £154 victim surcharge and made a destruction order for Narla.
Once again, we see the reason this ban had to come in - the very sort of people drawn to these beasts are exactly the sort that shouldn't have them.

Network Rail's managing director for the Wales and Western region, Michelle Handforth, has resigned.
It came just days after infrastructure problems left hundreds of passengers stranded in carriages for hours in the dark in west London.
Ms Handforth was paid a £330,000 salary and commuted to work from Aberdeen.After all, the train service is sooooo unreliable, isn't it?
A rail insider said she had made the decision to resign before the west London incident, after recognising the challenges of the role.To be more accurate, recognising that she wasn't up to them, surely?
There's no doubt that streaming TV has been the premier entertainment breakthrough of the...what are we calling that decade? Well, 2010 onwards, anyway.
And NetFlix was orginally the brand leader here, and this one was the jewel in its, well, you get the drift!
I was a bit sceptical at first, despite the stellar casting, but long before the mid-season episode, I was hooked. I did wonder how they were going to deal with the passage of time, but I shouldn't have worried; each change of cast seems to have been spot on.
And the stunning opening titles really set the scene.
I'm willing to bet everyone was fine and avoided salmonella, and - apart from the very north of Scotland - blizzards were conspicuous by their absence...

A teenage groom was among five people injured after a car ploughed into a crowd as his wedding celebration turned into a 'bloodbath', leaving a 'Good Samaritan' neighbour who tried desperately to help the wounded dead, MailOnline can reveal.
Newly wed Hasan Khan, 19, suffered stab wounds and his father Riasat Khan, 42, received head injuries, his mother said today.
Lovely. It's usually traveller weddings that end like this.
A visibly shocked Mrs Khan, speaking to MailOnline, said: 'I am the groom's mother. He was hurt and so was my husband.
'We don't know why. We are a good family. It started as a happy day but things got out of hand.'
Ya think!?!
She declined to discuss the bride or her family or the events leading up to the horror as a female police officer inside her house advised her not to talk about the devastating events.
Can't silence everyone, WPC...
Among tributes placed beside a smashed street sign where the horror had occurred was one one saying: 'Chris taken from us to soon by a mob of savages'.
I bet the police have removed that one by now.
