German Politician Prevented Police Sharing Image of Christmas Market Attacker ‘to Prevent Racism’
It is not racism to identify perpetrators of heinous crimes. And photographs are excellent means of identification.
It is impossible to separate racial characteristics from a photographic likeness of anyone. Certain things are immediately obvious to even the most unprejudiced observer.
Skin color, gender, facial characteristics, even state of personal grooming, are all sharply delineated with more modern forms of photography. And if you are trying to track somebody down, all are essential to refine your search.
