This is not an easy question to ask: Is York Region LE anti-Asian? This is a question and not a statement or an accusation.

For example, they don't seem to take the several incidents of "nippertipping" this year very seriously. On the other hand, it seems that they are regularly raiding Asian residences and MP's and arresting people for the "crime" of consenting adults engaged in private sex. Also, wasn't York Region LE convicted by the courts of racial profiling in raiding Asian residences and cars on the pretext of looking for grow-ops?

There are a lot of new Asian agencies and SP's that hit the city over the summer with very aggressive marketing and undercutting the going rates of already established agencies & SP's. I don't know for sure of course, but it seems to me that LE justs wants things to be calm and for everyone to go about their business "under the radar". These new editions to the local scene seem to have stirred things up. Maybe thats why they are getting so much attention - they are drawing it to themselves with their behavior. Just an idea - I don't care one way or the other.
 
they have a sorted past,so there should be no surprises.But having said that they have been ok as of late.The "nipper tipping" was knew to me,and I live there.It seems it never came to light,but the LE knew of the problem.This is small town Ontario,and unfortunately visual minorities are invisible.Small town kids are bored,and jealous.Lots of single moms,welfare etc,a kind of melting pot at the end of the road.Most people with good jobs are commuting and only sleep there.

Markham is in York Region unless it's been renamed China.
 
What is "nippertipping"

I've heard of cow tipping, but never nipper tipping..
 
Nipper tipping is when a group of young people who get drunk or high (or both) and have nothing to do go in search of folks (asians and non-asians) who go fishing. Upon discovering the hapless fishermen, they proceed to push the folks into the water along with all their stuff. I think a death has already come of this. Cops don't think it's a crime. :rolleyes:
 
Check the torontostar their website had an article about nippertipping. I think some kid was badly hurt in a chase involving a car?!?? I think the police better have the odd squad car pass through the area otherwise they are going to look pretty bad when someone gets hurt or killed.

I think that this has the potential to cause more problems in the future if police refuse to take stronger actions to prevent more incidents.

That's fucked up.

I've never ever even heard of such a thing.

Re:Is York Region LE anti-Asian? Suprise!

This is going to be a long thread!
Same deal as NYC sweeps when Asians & Russians moved in on local action...Few years later, Asian & EE Ops everywhere in NYC & Tri-state area.

There's a big difference between not thinking it's a crime (i.e., not thinking it's enough to be able to prosecute) and not thinking it should be a crime.

Cops don't make the laws. They just enforce them.
