No idea. Never given it a moment's thought and I don't see what difference it would make or why they'd object.

I didn't say it proved anything. You asked why it is known for being racist.



From http://www.metbpa.com/



I'm guessing because black officers experience more racism than whites?



Correction: from your link...


If you feel that strongly about it then why not find out which associations don't and ask them why, rather than forming your opinion on partial facts.


Obviously we are going to disagree forever on this ,in my opinion the Black Police Association is wrong ,by it's nature it will find racism simply because it is looking for it .It promotes favouritism to blacks by it's very existence which is wrong .In my opinion it's organistions such as that,that will promote racism .By segregating themselves in separate organisations ethnic minorities do themselves no favours at all

That's the whole point. we're missing the point :(
if there were some black people objecting to it, then maybe it's because what I think that it just creates a divide?

I don't suppose you have any evidence to back up the no idea bit do you? just kidding Russ.

I still find it amazing that anyone talking about racism automatically assumes that it's white people discriminating against blacks.

It cuts far more ways than that but the interested parties rarely mention any of the other racist divides such as Pakistani/Bangladeshi, Indian/African or Chinese/Japanese. This doesn't suit the agenda perhaps?

Has to be because blacks can't be racist. I don't think those people talking are PC or tree huggers. but if they are then they're not doing the human race any favours. because all they're doing when they stick their fingers in their ears making silly sounds in order to try and distrupt the debate and its concerns, is making us move to the subject of tulips vs daffodils.

Most Tulips are grown in the Netherlands :)
