A poor career choice...

If you weren't gonna be able to lay hands on half the population...
LONDON — Police said Sunday that a Muslim woman officer had refused to shake hands with London's police chief during a graduation ceremony last month due to her religious beliefs, fanning a debate in Britain over the assimilation of Muslims into society.
So unless she's arresting her husband or a close male relative... this woman is useless as a front-line officer. How the hell did she manage to get through psych testing and police college?

Political correctness trumps common sense yet again.

Speaking of political correctness, in 2005, this same Police Commissioner, Sir Ian Blair, "'hung out to dry' three white detectives - who were accused of rudely mispronouncing "Shi'ites' - to prove his anti-racist credentials."

Later in the interview, he suggested that there should be a single Islamic state stretching across the Middle East, adding that there was plenty of space in Canada to establish a Jewish homeland.
Sounds like Hamas has a "final solution" to that pesky Jewish problem... hmmmm, that sounds sort of familiar.
