“University of Minnesota Bans Use of Race in Crime Suspect Descriptions”

The ostrich approach. That should solve the hugely disproportionate black crime perpetration problem.

Political Correctness is going to kill us all.

“Yeah, people got robbed, assaulted, raped, even murdered. We could have stopped it easily. But we didn’t... and we can rest easy at night because we took the high road and we chose to be Politically Correct.
Many people were assaulted.
Many people were raped.
Many people were killed.
But at least nobody’s feelings were hurt.”

These people are crazy. Looney toons. Freaking nuts.

“The alleged assailant, whose race cannot be identified, is about 5’9”, 20 years of age, wearing a FUBU hoodie and pants low enough to show about 3” of butt crack....”

OK. North Dakota. Would you please go grab a crowbar and hit Minnesota in the head with it? Maybe that will kickstart their brain.

I am so glad I skipped going to the UofM.. and joined the Marines as a yout’ instead.

The education I received serving my country rather than bein indoctrinated into a liebral way of living that pretends all is well, even as the opposite is true.

.. and people send their kids there to this day.

Scott Walker had a clue.

The people running the U haven’t any.

This new policy really doesn't change much. Only race descriptions such as "negro" or "Caucasian", etc. would be banned if the language of the policy is taken literally.

Descriptives normally used in identifying perpatrators are not "races": "black teen" ("black" is not a race); "white male" ("white" is not a race); "hispanic woman" (not sure what "hispanic" is, but it's not a race), etc.

Well, then, don’t mention the race, give more detailed descriptions:

E.g. the suspect is a male about 6 foot tall, with straight black hair and latte colored skin; or the suspect is a female about 5 foot 4 inches tall with skin described by witnesses as between bittersweet chocolate and ebony in color, with elaborately braided black hair; or, again, the suspect is a male 5 foot 7 inches tall with blotchy pink skin and hair the color of cornsilk.

Maybe English majors with specialties in poetry could be engaged to write even more evocative suspect descriptions.

UMN student sexually assaulted near campus
Posted: 03/23/2015
http://www.twincities.com/localnews/ci_27769107/u-m-student-sexually-assaulted-near-campus
“The suspect is described as a white male, 5-feet-10 to 6 feet tall, with a medium build. He was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and black sweatpants with three white stripes on the side.
This is the first crime alert the U has issued since announcing Feb. 25 that it would not provide a description of a criminal’s physical appearance unless it’s detailed enough to aid in an arrest.”
The first sentence does absolutely nothing to support the gibberish of the second. Political correctness demands that we be unblinking consumers of the government promoted assertions. Obviously, the writer of this article and his editor are both willing disseminators of the party line.
