Absolutely Spot on!!

It's about time the BiB started putting fighting crime before raising revenue with traffic offence fines.

I lost all the respect I had for the law when my Gran got burgled and they took six hours to get there. The worst thing was they had two officers sat around the corner with a speed trap.

That and the fact the last time I got stopped the officer spoke to me like I was a piece of sh*t. I kid you not he actually called me a f*cking c*nt.

He said F*cking c*nts like you in your modified car really f*ck me off. If I didn't have to be somewhere I'd throw the book at you. I decided that as I'd got away with it (80 on a dual carriage way ffs) I'd keep my mouth shut.

Had he been a **** I'd have simply called my home answering machine on my mobile and then played the recorded conversation to the PCA.

I've got infinite respect for the officer that's polite courteous and has a bit of a laugh with you.

The holier than thou ******* you get these days can all be stabbed on the job as far as I care.

 

That's the magistrates fault, niot the police's

 

i think we should all carry dictaphones in our cars just incase we encounter the law, then record the way they speak, a lot of the older drivers will no doubt have a story of never being caught and have complete respect for the police, but if your a youngster today your pretty much gauranteed to get stopped on a regular basis, the fact that the older people never got stopped is simply becuase the police never had the camera technolgy to do it in their day, they probably went just as fast, but speeding wasnt a priority in their day, the fact that the younger generation is always getting stopped really is winding them up and it causes more problems in society between kids and police, if you speak to any young driver, the majority hate the police because either theyve been sttopped or a mate has, and when a real crime happens, it never seems to get solved.

 

TBH I think you also need to look at it from the Police perspective. It's very easy for us to tar them all with the same brush, but I'd hate to be a cop nowadays.

I see some little cheeky bastids get stopped on those programs like Traffic Cops, etc and they act all big and hard and are so rude to the police pulling them over, even though normally it's because they're driving whilst banned, whilst having dodgy plates or having a serious fault with the vehicle (or just driving like a tool). They swear at them, give them abuse, all in the full knowledge that they're protected by "human rights."

I know very well that 20 years ago, you might well have been dragged into the back of a riot van and given a good (and well deserved) kicking for exhibiting such juvenile and rude behaviour. Honestly I wish they still would and teach some of these wretched and out of control yobs we see nowadays a lesson in respect - it used to be that yobs were afraid of the police, but now it's the other way round in many cases.

It's easy to bad mouth them, but if it was me - I'd want to tear gas the little darlings and see how cocky they were then...

 

to be honest, most of my experiences have been bad regards police, unless they actually want my help in some way.


the missus has an old uncle down south, owns a large wood factory, and hates police with a passion, missus never knew why until last week.

he was away down london years ago and ended up getting arrested for something trival, ended up getting kicked to **** in the back of the van by a load of coppers, and he says they came in his cell every hour to give him another boot, and gave him comments like "you are not from around here, you wont come back after this" he was released the following day without charge.

apparently they rang up his wife and told her that he was not coming home in a sarky way, half gloating at what they had done.

he is not a violent man, but is one of these types that will stand up and speak his mind if he thinks something is not right, best way to shut him up? kick him in the gob it would seam

my old next door neighbour when i was a kid and growing up in a different town had a boot to the face as well, they waited until he was cuffed first mind

the police do themselves no favours with crap like this, its reasons like this that when they come to us for help, asking for cctv footage, asking the staff to come and make statements, come to court etc etc, they get told NO THANKS


i am still waiting for a reply from our lasts police complaint regarding them hassling me for people who don't live at my address, swept under the carpet it would seam


but having a gash numberplate, well that's them actually doing you a favour IMO

 

Good job your not a copper then really, i think we've seen too much police brutality over the years, all very well getting the cops to give a good kick in to the guilty party, however as we all know you are 'innocent until proven guilty' in this country, and unfortunatley we do sometimes suffer because of it, but im sure if you were arrested for something you didnt do, you probably would'nt want a good kick in now would you!!!

 

I think that's a little unfair bigdog - I stated the sort of people who deserve it - I wasn't making a sweeping statement about anybody getting arrested for anything - just those little mouthy f**kers who think they're above the law.

I'm not particularly pro-Police but I'm not a wishy washy liberal PC lover either - IMHO the Police can't do their job effectively if we tie their hands. You can't have order if you let the dregs of society run riot.

And don't forget not every policeman is a neanderthal in uniform; perhaps you've just had a lot of unlucky experiences?

 

so your still saying in your opinion guilty people deserve a kick in, lets not bother with the police, il give you a ring next time i get any trouble

 

If they are truly guilty then yes! I've had it with the PC softly softly approach - it doesn't work. End of story.

Thanks to this PC nanny government, someone little f**ker pours paint stripper all over my car, and instead of being fined and sent down the little ******* gets a fully paid up holiday so we can "understand why he did it."

If that's my alternative too right I'd say he deserves a good kicking.
