Police and P*nises Week

This week on the CAAGe blog we’re talking about the police, about p*nises, and sometimes about both. We'll be using the hashtag #PAP on Twitter and elsewhere.

We want to raise issues concerning the police and grooming, notably those around police reactions to grooming, how many police officers have actually groomed vulnerable women who have presented at police stations, and demonstrate how the issues around grooming (perpetrators commit more than one offensive act in general) are handled.

We have seen more and more cases where police officers just laugh at cases of online exposure. Whether it’s embarrassment or puerility, this needs to stop.

We’ve seen cases where the perpetrators are treated with more sympathy than the victims by the police. This needs to change.

And we’ve seen police officers grooming and suffering less consequences than a fare jumper.

So tune in from Monday. Use the hashtag #PAP (police and p*nises). Let's get the conversations that are so long overdue out in the open!

Note: ironically we have updated the blog to remove the ‘e’ from p*nises, because the search algorirhms were ‘dinging’ us as ‘adult content’. And there are some battles just not worth us taking our eye of the ball for!
