Why can't I?
Is it because I am Scotch?
Seems to me like Dindu knew his rights better than the coppers did.
The progression is:
Form a reasonable belief that an offence has been committed by that person.
Then and only then demand name and address.
Arrest when name / address is not provided.
It is not:
Challenge a person to prove their identity.
Conclude from their legal refusal to answer that they must be Other Dindu.
Frying tonight.
We don't know how specific the description of Other Dindu was, or the start of the barney, but the point is that they must first form a reasonable belief that Dindu is Other Dindu before requiring name and address.
Given that - after investigation - the prosecution has swapped around from Dindu to Tessa Tazer, I'd conclude that they got it wrong, as many, many coppers do. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

And nobody would have seen the video and Tessa Taser would have had at most a Talk, No Biscuits, with her Inspector and nothing would have changed.

Sure, and nothing would change. I'm glad that he had more principles than you.
There should be consequences for Taser happy coppers when they get it wrong, because when they're done lighting up Dindu, when they're done tasering blind men with sticks and blind men with sticks, they'll come for you.
Well, me. You, I'm not bothered about. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

I know coppers both personally and professionally.
In their personal lives, and in the calm of the office, they are predominantly decent people.
I do not make the mistake of thinking that has any bearing on their behaviour once they put their Super Suits on and go on Justice Patrol. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Bin collectors provide a vital service and we'd instantly miss them if they stopped.
Straight up, with some notable exceptions I don't buy the line that coppers are mostly corrvpt scvm who only get into it for the power. It's a dreadful, thankless job that grinds people up and it's surprising that anyone is daft principled enough to sign up for it.

To be fair, the job has become much more complicated due to our ever-burgeoning plethora of laws, plus the changing interpretation of those often vaguely worded laws by various strata of judges.
Coppers receive surprisingly little on-the-job training, so what they do know can quickly become obsolete.
Recognising that, coppers are increasingly being expected to be graduates and the Met are even taking graduates in directly as detectives, which is going to cause a lot of friction.
If that sounds like I'm excusing Tessa Taser here, I'm not.

I've somehow managed to get through life without any bad experiences of them. On the rare occasions I have been stopped, politeness and cooperation has led to an easy resolution.

I was rather drawing the point out of you; if you've not been stopped half dozen times a month just for being the colour you are, then you're unlikely to have the same viewpoint as someone who has.
Back when all this were fields ie when I was a lad, I was on the receiving end of some pretty messed up police harassment (and indeed, in the end, assault), because there was a particular pair of coppers that patrolled my area who made assumptions of my character based on nothing more than my associates - which in this instance happened to be my rogue brother.
I'll try to keep it reasonably unteffey.
I'm white from a working class background. In the late 80's early 90's when the building trade fell on hard times, my dad fell out of work, the house had to go and my family and I got shipped out into social housing in what was (probably still is) one of the worst council estates in the South East.
My brother was always a bit of a rogue and moving into this sort of environment, he quickly fell in with the wrong people. Nothing too heavy - no firearms or heavy drugs, but a lot of robbed goods and definitely a lot of driving around in motors that he was neither licenced or insured to drive, for example. That problem was endemic across the estate and the police knew it, so they'd regularly park up either end and effectively road block it. Sooner rather than later they knew the culprits by eye but of course the kids were cute about it, swapped cars often, kept each other informed when the police were on the estate etc.
One day I was passenger in the back of my brother's mates car. He wasn't a bad bloke was his friend, and I had no reason to suspect the car wasn't squeaky clean, but it turned out this wasn't the case. It was ringed. Into the cells we all went as a result. No evidence against me of course and eventually I was let go. For the record, I was nothing but polite and cooperative - the coppers were anything but; I still remember the feeling of being looked down upon like I was trash, and the attitude of 'we're gonna have you' going right through. From that moment on, I was marked.
Over the course of the next 3 months I was stop and searched the best part of 2 dozen times. I then got my own car - legal as you can be - I was stopped on pretty much a weekly basis. I used to carry my documents with me - the fuckers would give me a producer anyway, just to inconvenience me. They'd continue doing it even though they knew I was legal.
Eventually, I got pulled over after I'd been camping for the weekend and in the back seat floor of the car they found a small ziplock bag - which had been used as packaging for the air bed adapter for the electric pump I'd just bought. They insisted it was a drugs bag and were going to arrest me in front of my new girlfriend that I'd just been away with. I reacted at last, just as they'd wanted, got upset and shouted something like FFS LEAVE ME ALONE! Before I knew it the shorty copper (with massive chip on his shoulder about his height) had stuck his hip in behind my leg and clothes-lined me over with no thought to how I'd land. I smashed my head on the kerb and split my scalp open. I still have the scar. They then sat on me whilst I was bleeding, until 'backup' arrived in the form of a police van. All the while telling my new missus how she shouldn't hang round with losers and delinquents.
All that because they assumed that because of where I came from and who I was related to, I'd be guilty of something eventually.
I was lucky because I had the chance to get off the estate and into a better life. Since then, bar one unfortunate encounter in a supermarket car park, with a traffic plod some years later which I won't go into but he was a complete cnut of the highest order, I've never had any bother with the police either. But then I no longer fit their profile of a career criminal. If I were poor, black and living in South Croydon, I don't suspect I'd be so lucky. |

From recent memory, 3 times on motoring offences, once stopped walking home, in the same area as a suspected burglary, twice when walking back from the pub.
Actually, thinking back. We used to get questioned or stopped almost every night when I used to ride 50's around the town centre with a group of mates. Racist bastard gave me 3 producers in a week once.
Does that make me white or black then?
Edit - I did get balled off by a copper in a van for using my mobile hand held, in a traffic jam. I pointed out that we hadn't moved for ten minutes, so I was hardly driving. He told me the law was because I had the keys in the ignition. Instead of arguing the toss, I apologised and got let off. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.
