What is going on
Jeweller warned over 'racially offensive' sign banning Eastern Europeans from shop ... after string of raids by Romanians | Mail Online
What is going on, here's a guy who's been robbed time and again and decides he doesn't want the thieving scumbags in his shop, so he puts a sign in the window telling them to keep out, quite right to. Then Plod comes round and makes him take his sign down, maybe if this jobsworth were to catch an odd criminal occasionally then maybe this chap wouldn't have needed sign in the first place

By 'thieving scumbags' can one assume that you mean all eastern europeans?

The police getting caught up with all the political correctness pish. In other words dont upset minorities. Proberly applies to the non prosecution after the Margram incident.

Re: What is going on
Thing is,criminals come from all countries and races. It's just when a trend appears it should be acted upon. Then out of the wood work come the do gooders ranting and raving that the majority are being targeted because of a few bad ones. This has been obvious in everything from streetcrime and drugs to terrorism. If we don't act it would be a free for all and if this guy has been robbed by eastern Europeans a number of times then it's no wonder he doesn't want them in his shop. Problem is, it's illegal........

Re: What is going on
im pretty sure the guy didnt put his sign up after 1 robbery the guy did nothing wrong its just the same as when shops put signs i saying no school kids allowed or no more than 2 school kids at a time
not all school kids are theives but banning or limiting them reduces teh risk of theft

Re: What is going on
It is his shop, he should be allowed to refuse entry to anyone he chooses.
How often have you seen,
' The management reserve the right to refuse admission'.
