Jag hoppas att polismyndigheten följer upp detta och tar reda på om det är deras regler som är uppenbart exkluderande och diskriminerande eller om det är attityderna hos vissa av deras personal.

Detta, den här typen av vad jag identifierar som #rasism, är EXAKT varför vi måste fortsätta prata om hur alla människor kan känna sig #trygga, kan känna att de har #tillit till andra människor och systemet, och kan känna sig #inkluderade i samhället.

För innan vi har det samtalet - och innan vi tar alla möjliga handlingar för att se till att skapa den verkligheten för ALLA - så kan vi inte säga att #Sverige har uppnått ett hållbart fredligt samhälle.
