Criminal Justice Information database, where the missing data can be found

1125

Following yesterday’s article on the cosy relationship between the police and Scottish Government, who are alarming a remarkably wide range of society, a flurry of information has been passed back to me, including the following notes on the Integration of Scottish Criminal Justice Information Systems (ISCJIS) database.  The First Minister has stonewalled requests to breakdown religiously aggravated crime, claiming the Crown Office have destroyed their records, but my source suggests the information is available for analysis in the ISCJIS database.  I’m told:

“The material stored (in the ISCJIS database) ranges from simple conviction records, to DNA, and social status. The data is used primarily for presenting Criminal History in court cases, and in identifying suspects in criminal investigations. It is also used of course to measure the social impact of changes in Legislation and Enforcement Policy, as evidenced by the current furore. It will also be used to predict the impact of such changes, particularly as regards Equality and Diversity impacts, which is a statutory requirement of any proposed Legislation.  You see, the ‘missing’ data is actually necessary in predicting the impact on Equality of the Offensive Behaviour Bill.”

“Essentially, if you want to know how many Section 74 Breach of the Peace convictions (Aggravation for Religious Prejudice) or even charges, there were at a given point in time in a given court, you simply search on the Breach of the Peace Conviction Code and add the modifier code ‘P’ indicating Religious Aggravation. All such offences are then returned, with full access (rights permitted) to the Reports and Case Notes.”

To assist the First Minister, below is information on what the enquiry form he has to complete looks like.  This is a link to the operation manual and if he’s really stuck he can call the helpdesk on 0141-585 – 8333.

We can only speculate why the authorities are so reluctant to disclose information on, on a subject so close to their hearts.

  1. First they came for the communists,

     

    and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a communist.

     

     

    Then they came for the trade unionists,

     

    and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a trade unionist.

     

     

    Then they came for the Jews,

     

    and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Jew.

     

     

    Then they came for RCs, Celtic and freedom of expression, and no one cared because the victims were now criminalised.

    You know the truth but you’re afraid to admit it.

  3. Por Cierto

     

     

    I have never been up as it is a £70 taxi each way from Barca and I can’t afford to stay in

     

    the hotel.

     

    Actually with a few bodies might make it this time.

     

    I have the brothers book.

    Good post, but I’m on the phone, forgive me.

     

     

    As I said last night, if they touch the song book and Celtic don’t fight back then we’ll need a new regime.

  5. SHANESTEETH @10 25-

     

     

    Udinese ?

     

     

    Far from a sell out . The stadium will be less than half full.

     

     

    The Celtic support will be in the section of the ground marked Europa Ospiti.

     

    A ticket for the Celtic section costs 20 euros.

     

     

    Italian law means that Udinese should only sell away tickets to ” officially sanctioned ” supporters who have ” confirmed travel arrangements” .

     

     

    Italian law means that Udinese should only sell ” home tickets ” to people who have the right of residence in Italy and are in possession of a valid Italian Identity Card…

     

     

    That does not mean that your mates wouldn’t find someone who would prepared to sell them tickets [ probably for a lot more than the face value]

     

     

    Udinese have some serious mad mental Ultras —- they have blood and death on their hands – Take care !

    Ernie just about the entire Scottish population in the 20s & 30s except the Catholics and most of the Jewish community where anti-catholic. So I really can’t see what your point is.

    What do you mean by business like?

     

     

    What business are the management of a football team in?

    ‘Ernie just about the entire Scottish population in the 20s & 30s except the Catholics and most of the Jewish community where anti-catholic.’

     

     

     

    I don’t accept that.

     

     

    But supposing for the sake of argument it is true, it makes you wonder just how virulently anti Irish Catholic many of the founders of the SNP were that they felt motivated to set up their own party to deal with the issue.

     

     

    And just to be clear, they weren’t anti Catholic. Indigenous Catholics were acceptable. It was Irish Catholics they objected to. They saw them as inferior, and a threat to, the Scottish race.

     

     

    They saw things in terms of race, not religion.

  13. Hallelujah Kate Voegele

     

     

     

    “Hallelujah”

     

     

     

    I’ve heard there was a secret chord

     

    That David played, and it pleased the Lord

     

    But you don’t really care for music, do you?

     

    It goes like this

     

    The fourth, the fifth

     

    The minor fall, the major lift

     

    The baffled king composing Hallelujah

     

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

     

    Your faith was strong but you needed proof

     

    You saw her bathing on the roof

     

    Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you

     

    She tied you to a kitchen chair

     

    She broke your throne, and she cut your hair

     

    And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

     

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

     

    Baby I have been here before

     

    I know this room, I’ve walked this floor

     

    I used to live alone before I knew you.

     

    I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch

     

    Love is not a victory march

     

    It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah

     

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

     

    There was a time when you let me know

     

    What’s really going on below

     

    But now you never show it to me, do you?

     

    And remember when I moved in you

     

    The holy dove was moving too

     

    And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

     

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

     

    Maybe there’s a God above

     

    But all I’ve ever learned from love

     

    Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you

     

    It’s not a cry you can hear at night

     

    It’s not somebody who has seen the light

     

    It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah

     

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

     

    You say I took the name in vain

     

    I don’t even know the name

     

    But if I did, well really, what’s it to you?

     

    There’s a blaze of light in every word

     

    It doesn’t matter which you heard

     

    The holy or the broken Hallelujah

     

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

     

    I did my best, it wasn’t much

     

    I couldn’t feel, so I tried to touch

     

    I’ve told the truth, I didn’t come to fool you

     

    And even though it all went wrong

     

    I’ll stand before the Lord of Song

     

    With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

     

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     

    Hallelujah

    Brown brogues, a crimplene jacket and a Primark stripey tie perhaps???

  15. Ernie

     

     

    So you don’t mind that the Labour, Tory & Liberal Parties back then where full of Anti IRISH Catholics, but you do mind that the SNP was?

     

     

    Does that not say something about you?

  16. tommytwiststommyturns Kano 1000 on

    Ole CQNer Gordon_J just posted on Facebook that controversial artist Tracey Emin is to become a Professor of the RA….isn’t that offensive?!

     

    I think we should be told….

  17. Guys the wee debate about political parties of the 1920’s being anti RC and anti Irish is interesting. But the party in government NOW the Snp is guilty of destroying data that proves RCs are 6 times more likely to be assaulted. Now is that just incompetence or anti Catholicism?

    ‘Ernie

    You’re missing the point, or pretending to.

     

     

    The motivation for many of the founders of the SNP was specifically to deal with the issue of Catholic Irish immigration into Scotland and the threat that Scottish nationalist felt it posed to the Scottish race.

     

     

    Go and read what some of those people had to say about our forefathers. It’s reminiscent of the anti Semitic propaganda of the Nazis.

  19. In the current round of SNP talking heads on our TV and radio frequencies (all of which I have managed to miss), has anyone asked any of that parties representatives to account for mr McCaskill’s (sp) comments after the LCF?

     

     

    If so, what did they say?

     

     

    If not, why the hell not??

    The SNP emerged from a swamp of anti Irish Catholic slime. You should at least have the balls to acknowledge that fact.

    Ernie

     

     

    Let’s assume/accept your hypothesis is correct and that the SNP was crammed full of Scots racists (as opposed to bigots) roughly in the De Valera mould (not uncommon across Europe). Let’s also assume that the non-racist bigots who were only ever anti-Catholic were aligned to the Scottish Unionist Party.

     

     

    How come the proletarian mass weren’t voting the SNP into seats and office if they agreed with this approach?

  24. Meanwhile in a dimly it secret bunker…a lone voice shouts..”ACTIVATE THE SCREENS NOW!!>>NOW I SAID!! thumpin his large fist on the large metal desk in front of him/

     

    “OOOHH who ripped your knittin? Mr evil genius”replied the white coated red lipped tall blonde assistant who adjusted her dress and walked out of the room..

     

    “NOW I SAY…ALIGN WITH THE COLLIDER”..”YES HERR DOKTOR ” came the reply from the other white coated assistantsas multiple screens illuminated the dark grey concrete surroundings…”WEATHER REPORT?” shouted the sharply siuted figure.

     

    “GREY AND CLOUDY OVER EAST KILBRIDE” replied another white coated technician…’CONNECTING WITH THE COLLIDER AND MAIN GRID NOW HERR DOKTOR”

     

     

    and so the race for another poduim began…..
