This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

This is the responsibility of local police forces, not the Government or Parliament. If you would like Parliament to give the police more resources to deal with these kinds of crimes, or to change the law to create new criminal offences related to racist behaviours, you could start a new petition calling for that.
