Title: Law V Louts
Post by: Mr Skrunts on 05 January 2010, 20:17:35
I was brought up to a degree as to be seen doing the right thing, so that others followed.

Thought the Police might have done the same,

Well we know there's a law for us & another for them.

That's not the issue. Yes we all need them at some point. They are the ones that should set an example, how can they expect Joe Public to law abiding when they clearly flout the law?

We certainly do Pete :y


when they clearly flout the law

I wouldn't have thought that the examples shown were meant to suggest that these officers were representative of the force as a whole or that such incidents were commonplace.

These foolish officers risk being disciplined and rightly so however all dedicated officers should expect support from the public at large as without it the system will not work.

IMO the 'System' doesn't work, ...or rather it does....for some! :-X

Good points as usual Zulu.

The public get away with quite alot, the police can only "Nick" them as and when they see them and catch them in the act.

These officers were caught in the act (On Film)

My point is this.  My local plod park on doble yellows, facing the wrong way, at night and half way accross the kerb when it suits them.

They laugh police cars over the sleeping policemen to see how long they stay airbourne, landonging the car to see how many sparks they can make on landing.

But yet if we were seen doing this we get nicked.

The simple point I make, if they act by the law they joined to enforce then these farcical incidents would not rake place.

Like holding on to a moving car with a bicycle, is that part of Police training.??????/

If the system of general law enforcement didn't work it would be all too obvious P.

There has been too much political interference in the operational deployment of police resources and the chief officers of various forces haven't done those under their command any favours by acquiescing to it.

On balance however the police provide an essential service in times when it’s easy to deride it until those doing so have urgent need of assistance.

I quite agree Mr D.  If I had anything to do with their respective feet wouldn't touch and they would be waiting a long time (60th birthday) to collect their deferred pensions. :y :y

Unfortunately the "top" of the police force is as "Politically Correct" and as divorced from reality as Politics has become.

These idiots cannot simply be dismissed as in days gone by .. but must be "counseled", "retrained", "re-educated" ... anything BUT sacked.... 

All far too touchyfeely.. and shit spreads downwards ....  :(

Ends up with a great many very good, hardworking NORMAL coppers getting stick they don't deserve because of a few idiots and "managers" who are too scared of their own promotion to do something about them.

I  wasn't 'having a go' at the Police in particular Z, merely pointing out that 'Society' in general has been allowed to degenerate to the point that 'without fear or favour' has no meaning any longer. Sorry if any offence was given, it was not intended. :y

None taken P :y  8-) 

You're quite correct, the general standing of society and the notion that respect must be shown for not only the rule of law but to others within that society have both taken a nose dive.

The police have a long way to go before they can re-establish their credentials and covenant with the public and the sooner they start, by getting out onto the streets and providing a real service free from political correctness, the better.

 :y Spot on  :y

Talk to a few coppers and you'll hear the same story every time. :(

Same goes for doctors and teachers. 

It's because this country is no longer run by an elected government.  Instead, it is micromanaged by an army of underqualified jobsworth civil service zombies, who'll agree to anything they are asked to do in order to preserve their pension.  At the top of this mountain of inadequacy and incompetence are the politicians, a mixture of residual Tony's Cronies and Boring Brown nonentities, who are allowed to implement their harebrained policies without any regulation, because they have an overwhelming Commons majority and a totally emasculated House of Lords.

We don't need an election, we need a bl**dy, bloodsoaked revolution!
